The Girl with no colour

Chapter 9: Terrified

I quickly untie Naomi and grab her by the hand. As I look around to find somewhere we can hide, I hear foot steps creeping down the hallway. I panic think that's it's all over and we're going to die then Naomi pulls me towards this mat.
"Hide here" she said to me in a calm tone.
"But I can't leave you here" I cried.
"I will be fine, just hide here then I will take her upstairs as you make a run for the front door" she planed.
"But I ca-" I got interpreted by the sound of the basement door opening. Naomi pushes me into the hole and quickly shuts the trap door then hides it with the mat. All I can hear is the two girls fighting...I hope she doesn't get hurt. Then all of the sudden it was silent, then I heard a body hit the floor. I was so scared that her mother will open the trap door. Then all of a sudden the trap door begins to open...
"PLEASE, DONT HURT ME! I beg of you" I begged.
"What are you doing!?! It's just me" Naomi giggled as she pulled me up.
"I-I thought you were your mother" I laughed a bit.
"Well, she won't be unconscious for long. Quick!" She yelled as the grabbed my hand and ran up the stairs. We ran outside the house then Naomi went back inside.
"WHERE ARE YOU GOING!?!" I yelled. She didn't say anything but just ran through the house getting things. When she got all the things she needed she was running towards the door but I saw it closing, I ran towards the door and pushed against it to fight the person trying to close it.

Naomi's POV:

I was just running towards the door then my mother was at the door trying to close it, but Joey was pushing against her. I knew he wouldn't hold it for long so I dropped everything and ran up to my mom then pounced like a cat onto her. She was trying to shake me off, she was like a wet dog trying to shake the water off her. But eventually she shook me off and I hit the ground hard. I blacked out and couldn't remember anything from that point.

When I woke up I was in a hospital bed and Joey sitting right next to me.
"YOUR AWAKE!?!" He yelled in an excited tone.
"W-What happened?" I struggled to keep my eyes open because of all of the bright lights.
"You blacked out and I ran you to the hospital because you where bleeding, a lot..." he looked down. "I thought you were dead..." a tear rolls down his face.
"But thank god your still alive! They cleaned and stitched your wounds while you were...asleep" he hugged me and smiled.
"But what about my mother? Where is she?" I asked.
"Well" he looks at me, worried. "The last time I saw her was on the ground, knocked out... she had a knife in her hand and tried to kill me but I ducked under her arm and punched her in the head" he looks down and taps his feet.
"Then I grabbed you and the bag and ran out of that nightmare" he looks at me again.
"So you don't know where she is?" I asked in a worried tone.
"Yes, I don't know where she is..." he started to tap his feet again.
"Oh no, we have to get out of here. NOW!?!" I yelled as I sat up on the edge of my bed.
"But the doc--".
"I don't care that I need to rest we have to get out of here now!" I cut Joey off as I got out of bed and pulled Joey towards the window. I opened it and looked down, we were about on the 3rd floor so we're not that far off the ground but it could still do a bit of damage if one of us fell. I got out and pulled Joey with me.
"Be careful.." I said grabbing onto the wall and carefully moving. Joey did the same thing, we both moved across slowly moving closer and closer to the ladder. Then Joey slipped!

Thank you for reading Chapter 9: Terrified. I'm finally back from my school trip so I will be able to write more chapters now 🤗. Anyways I hope you like this story so far, now this story is starting to come to an end. Don't be worried I will probably only end it at chapter 15 or less, depending how much I write in a chapter. But I probably will be writing a Sequel to this story so look forward to that! Any way have fun! 😘
