Untitled Part 1

Chapter One: Intruder

    You know how you have that feeling were something bad is might happen soon? I was having that feeling. I was driving down the road, to my parent's house, when my phone started ringing. I flinched. I picked up the phone to see who it was. It was my mom who was calling me.
       I answered and said "Hello?". There was a weird silence for a moment until she answered. "Lexi? How far are you from home?". I was surprised, she normally doesn't asked questions like that. I guessed and answered, "About twenty minutes away."
       There was another silence. After what seemed like forever, I asked with worry in my voice, "Are you okay?" There were muffled noises on the other end. "No",she replied as if she was in distress, and hung up. By then I knew something was wrong.

As I sped up the down the road. There was an odd way the trees were moving as if the Earth knew something bad might happen to. I accedently passed their house because I was in such a rush and slopishly backed up into their drive.
       When I got out of the car I noticed that all the lights were off. Funny,I thought. The lights were almost never off. I ran into the house, slamming the door behind me hard enough to raddle the pictures on the walls. I Calle for my parents but no one answered. As I shuffled across the room,something moved behind me.
     I could tell by the way it walked, thank goodness, that it was at least human. Even though it was dark, I noticed the person was lean and strong. I stayed in place and didn't move. When the figure started walking towards me, I quickly and as silent as I could, went over to the kitchen counter. I grabbed the closest object that was near me, it was an envelope cutter. It'll have to do, I thought to my self while looking at the long blade.
     As the person slowly walked into the kitchen, I stalked it like a loin stalks his prey, in the darkest corner. They lean figure lunged at me with great speed. My first instinct was to swing my arm like a whip and cut the persons cheek, from what I could tell. It smirked. I was thinking on where to hide when the figure grabbed my wrist when I wasn't paying attention. I struggled to break free but couldn't because the person was to strong.
    "I don't see why you would try and fight back." It was a  boy. He had a deep, husky voice yet it was gentle at the same time. Still struggling for what seemed like forever, I finnaly rammed my knee into his stomach and broke the grasp.
     He grunted and wobbled back holding his arm over his stomach.  I ran to the living room again trying to look for something to defend myself because he had taken the envelope cutter out of my hands. I heard him sigh in the back ground while I was still running. I hid behind a couch hopeing he didn't hear me.
   "I know you're in hear!" The boy yelled. I stayed quite. He came closer to the couch. I scooted back. Bad mistake. The wooden floor boards underneath me creaked loudly and echoed throughout the room. By then he knew were I was. As he shoved the couch out of the way, I got up and half sprinted to the other side of the living room. I heard him mumble under his breath. "She never stops. "
       I just stood there he lunged at me again and this time I wasn't quick enough. He ,painfully, rapped his arms around my waist and pulled me back towards him. " WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!", i screeched. He chuckled and pulled out his gun. I was scared to death and was twisting and turning, trying to get out of the hold he had me in. As he raised his arm I struggled even harder to break free.
    He struck the top of my head with his gun. It took me a second to realize I was falling towards the ground. I hit the cold wooden floor with a thud. I saw him, through blurry vision,bend down to pick my up bridal style. Right before he picked me up, everything went black and I passed out.
