Shadow Magic

Chapter 2

I woke up the next day to find fire. Everywhere. I was petrified, and a million thoughts came to my mind at once. Why did it start? How do I get out? Is my mom okay?

Then I saw It. The same It that I saw in my dream. Was this just another dream?

No. It was so real, so vivid.

Then I heard It. It let out a cry, so high-pitched and loud, my ears started bleeding.

Then I heard a normal scream. I almost forgot "Mom!" I shouted.

I tried to get out, but It tackled me. I screamed too, and the world seemed to go black. The only thing I saw, was me and It.

I had newfound strength, so I pounced. I punched and kicked, It fell, and I blacked out.

"That hyclenta really did a number on him." Said a deep voice "I don't know how he beat it. Another second with it and he would be dead."

"Who are you!" I shouted, startling them. I guess they didn't expect me to wake up.

"You don't need to know that now" said the deep voice, as he poked me with a needle.

Again, I blacked out.
