The Pyromaniac's Sister

Chapter Two

"Richie dear, go pack a bag for you and that thing. We're going camping this weekend." my mother said while messing up Richard's hair.

My brother smiled, "Okay, mommy. Come along satan. You ready to go sleep in the woods?"

"I-I-I guess, it won't be any different from having to sleep in the garden. Why does no one like me Richard?" I asked my twin.

"That nerd friend of yours likes you." replied Richard in a snarky way.

"Barry doesn't like me, he likes Iris. And I was talking about mother and father." I said while looking at my feet.

With that said my brother pushed me into a wall and run to the pool house to pack my bag for the our family camping trip. Even though it was mid October Richard only packed me some tank tops and one pair of basketball shorts.

As soon as we got into our dad's car I instantly fell asleep.

When I woke up we were at the camping grounds.

"Richard, Raina we're here." said our father.

"Yay!" replied my brother.

"The trees are pretty!" I said while looking up at the treetops.

My mother huffed, "To be honest, I think nature is almost as ugly as you."

My eyes started to tear up as I ran deep into the woods.

"Honey, leave the accident alone." I heard my father say before he took off after me.

I was sitting in a wild blueberry bush when he found me. "Raina get out of that bush now, its dinner time." said my father while pulling me behind him.

When we got to the tents my mother and brother had already cooked all of the hot dogs for the night. Mother made sure to pack exactly 13 of them, just enough for everyone but me to get four total, I would only get a half of a hot dog per night. I slowly ate my half of a hot dog while mother, father, and Richard got to eat two.

After the hot dogs were gone they started to make some s'mores. Surprisingly I got to help make them, but I hardly got to eat any. Richard dropped a lot and our parents laughed but I had to eat the ones from the ground.

Dinner and dessert was gone so it was time for bed. Richard and I shared a tent that was directly across from mother and father's. Richard fell asleep quickly on his super comfy looking sleeping bag. I couldn't sleep with the sharp rocks digging into my back and all the loud bugs outside of the tent.

At like one in the morning I woke up to see a yellow blur staring down at me before walking over to my parent's tent. I stuck my head out of my tent and watch the blurry yellow man. He went into their tent and picked up both of my parents like they weighed nothing. The yellow blur speed off into the woods but not before he slowed down just enough to wink at me.

Once I was sure that the blur was gone I shook my brother till he woke up.

"R-r-richard, something just kidnapped mother and father!" I said once he was awake enough to understand me.

He yawned, "What are you talking about, Ray? There's no way a person could take mom and dad."

"I swear I say a blurry yellow man steal them! Go check if you don't believe me." I replied.

Richard stood up and walked over to the other tent. "What did you do to our parents?!? Satan get here now!"

I quickly ran to my brother and looked into the tent. It looked like a horrible struggle happened. I suddenly started to cry. MY PARENTS ARE GONE is the only thought going through my head.

While I was crying and freaking out Richard grabbed mother's phone and called for help.

The cops came within the hour. I told them what I had seen but, they thought I was crazy. When they were done asking me questions they did the same with my brother. Richard told the cops that he had been asleep till after our parents disappeared and that he thinks I did it. And like always people believed him.

The cops put both of us into their car.

"Hey son, do you have anyone to stay with?" one of the cops asked my brother.

"Grandma Costello will take me in. What you gonna do with my twin sister?" replied my brother.

"She'll be going somewhere special for a while. Are you okay with that?" asked the other cop.

I looked up over to my brother while replied with "Sure, Grandma doesn't like her anyways."

Tears started to fall from my eyes again while I turn to look out the window. When we got to Grandma Costello's house Richard left without even saying goodbye.

Now it was just the two cops and me. The ride was silent till I asked, "Where am I going?"

"Natural Fire Juvenile Detention Center, its a place for special kids like you." said the first cop.

"Oh, ok." I replied.

~Nightmare Ends/ 3rd Person POV~

Raina woke up on her bed in the form of a terrified wolf. She quickly shifted back to her normal shape.

The nightmare was one Raina hadn't had since she met a lovely pyromaniac named Mick Rory. Mick was the only person in the world that Raina trusted after what happened to her parents. And he was the only person that knew about this nightmare.

THIS WAS MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT WRITING ANYTHING IN 3RD PERSON. I HOPE I WASN'T TO BAD.
