Apocolypse

Chapter 8

*Yawn*

I wake up to see a cloudy sky and no sun.  There are no birds in flight, nor the chirp of grasshoppers.  Not a single living thing.  All I hear is wind blowing on the leaves of trees.

It is October 31st, Halloween.  I am allowed to go back home for a week and celebrate with my family. I can't wait to see my friends and sister.  

- -11:01 A.M.

 "Welcome back Tripp!!!" 

Dozens of community citizens are cheering for me, while I stand in confusement.  

"The hell?" I say

I see friends, enemies, and strangers here.  Why are they cheering for me, I'm a loser?  If there's anything to cheer for, it's Halloween.  However, I find Cecilia in the backround behind the crowd.  

"Cecilia! Hey! Remember me? Tripp?"

"Hey! Tripp, we've been waiting for you!  Ben can't wait to see you." She responded

Why would Ben want to see me?  He bullies me constantly but somehow he is willing to talk to me? That does not make any sense what-so-ever. 

"But, before I take you to see him, um, could you come to my house for a while? No one's home." Cecilia asked

"Sure. Anything for a friend." I said

"Sure... for a friend."

Cecilia guides me to her car, a blue BMW 1-Series convertable.  I get inside ready to go. 

We get to her home and head upstairs.  We sit on the floor of her bedroom and talk.  

"I've been lonely after leaving you, Tripp.  I miss our time together. " she says smoothly.

"Me too."

She unbuttons her shirt and takes it off.  Underneath, a small bra and a cut.

"This cut is from training...it was an 'accident'." she says

She pushes me to the ground, with a force, then starts wrestling me. What's going on?  She easily gains control of me without me trying to resist. She lays a huge kiss on my cheek, then strokes my abdomin.  She rips off my shirt and throws it away.  *Smooch* *Smooch* Finally, she goes in for the kill.  The next thing I know is that red lipstick and my pants zipper is loose.  I pass out.
