The Lost

unexpected

                I woke up to my phone ringing it was my mother texting that she's landed in Australia. I was left alone to look after the house and make sure that I go to my first day of high school. The reason that my mother is gone to Australia is because she's on her honeymoon. My mom is happy with the new man she married, Tim. He's a tall, strong, caring, gentle man that works as a technician and gets paid really well. Yesterday was their wedding day so they already left to go around the world. They won't be home for a couple of weeks.

Mom, have fun and send me some pictures. Love you.

OK honey, will do have fun love you too.

Mom, remember to be safe you know what's in this world, promise me please.

When I sent that texted I had tears in my eyes because it reminded me of what I saw when I dropped Tim and my mother off. Great they're going to die no matter what, remember there is nothing for you to do. But I'm so tired of the people I love dying! Why can't I save anyone?????? Why?? I screamed into my head. They tears did not stop. After about ten minutes of crying I finally got up and got into the shower. A couple of minutes later I got out of the shower and waked to the mirror when I wiped it clean of the steam from my scolding hot shower I saw a girl with an oval face, pale skin that had a silky look to it with full rose pink lips and the nose was slightly crooked . She had big grey eyes that started with light gray and then ended with dim gray. Her hair was long, thick silky black with natural blond highlights. Then when I looked away from the mirror to pick up my clothing but, when I turned back to the mirror I did not see me but something almost transparent that took the place of my reflection, it looked like a human but, when I turned around there was no one behind me or in front of me. Then I turned back towards the shower the transparent human was not there. Except for the mirror was covered in steam again but, now there are some words on the mirror "You need to escape this town!" that creped me out a whole lot.

After changing I walked in to the living room, which was covered with boxes all over the place from wall to wall. Not knowing what to do, I started to unpack the boxes. Then I hit one box that held some of my biological fathers stuff. When I opened it up I was surprised that I found a picture of myself, when I was a baby with a man I did not recognized, he had an oval face, pale almost silky, with big dark grey eyes that was tear-filled, warm and compassionate. He had a slight crooked noses, full smiling lips, black spiky thick hair that had natural blond highlights. Shadowy in appearance beard. He was wearing blue denim jeans and a baby- blue t-shirt. He was holding her in his arms. They were in front of a mountain that I have never seen before, it was covered in what looked like scales and it was red, gold and black.

As I looked closer to the picture I could see something else, something that everyone else says does not existed in this world. Not like they believe that there are other worlds, just other life forms like aliens. I thought to myself. I put the picture to the side, to finish what I started to do, unpack. I went back to the box that held my biological fathers stuff. As I started to dig deeper I found a box that looked like a music box. It was medium that was painted gold with a design that consist of half swirls that cover everywhere but the top of the lid which it said Mea puella ad tempus datum, quo vivimus. Felix dies natalis decimo amorem, pater (in Wade)

The box was in another langue and I could not read it. So I decided to go on to google.com to figure out what it said, but when I picked it up I realized that it was heavier than it was when I pulled it out of the box. Then I walked to the table a sat it down and tired opening the box which was impossible, the whole thing looked like it was made into a box. There were no hinges or a lock of some sort, as if the box needed a magical word or had a secret button. After about thirty minutes of nothing but staring at the box I went back to unpacking.
