The Sky-Coloured Opal He Wore (ON HOLD)

The Sky-Coloured Opal He Wore

Hi this is canada7126 and I am making this slightly romantic but there is no kissing or stuff like that so it is okay for all of you people who are not into romantic stuff like my class  is. Just a fair warning for you. There will be death in this book. Just warning you so don't complain because I have already warned you. Also, this is rated (PG-13)  Anyways, onto the story! I hope you enjoy the actual book, not the death parts. Thanks! I am pretty sure that this is the only death scene in the actual book. If you don't want to read this scene, just wait for the second part to come out and I will just sum up the prologue for you at the beginning.

Prologue

Skylar's POV

I giggled happily as I tickled my little sister. "Who's ticklish?" I cooed. 'Yes you are."  Opal , the baby laughs out loud.

"Now, now, if you make her laugh too hard, she'll choke."

"Yes mother."

All of the happiness of the moment disappears just like that. Way to kill the mood, mother. Way to go. I'll bet you would be a great cheerleader. You could use a lesson from them. How to be bully, cute, sweet and flexible. I chuckle. Then I resume to tickle my little sister.

BEWARE-Death is coming. Gruesome and descriptive.- I warned you. Don't complain-

"What?" I hear mother cry. I ignore her and continue to tickle Opal. Right then I lurch forward and hear a high-pitched scream, a loud BAM and the sound  of glass breaking. I look at the place where mother is supposed to be only to see her shoes.

Wait. Her shoes?

I look forward and see mother fly out of the windshield. I scream. Even though I hated mother, I didn't want her to die. At least, not in front of my eyes. Blood flies everywhere. I scream louder. I look outside and see fence coming towards us. I leap onto the bloody chair. It's a miracle that I have not slipped on the blood yet.

Not much scary stuff anymore

I jerk the wheel to the right. Luckily I paid attention to mother while she was driving. I steadily stay on the road. I look up in the mirror to see if there were any witnesses. Instead I see a red shape in the middle of the road. My heart seems to be in my throat. I resist the urge to throw up. I swerve to miss a road block.

Wait. What did it say? Bridge construction ahead.

Nooo! I abandon all hope to find someone. Today is Sunday. No one is at work today. My heart sinks. The hope I had turns into a ghost of it. Right then I see the end of the bridge. My heart sinks lower. I remember there is a brake pedal in the car, at the bottom. Hope becomes real. Just then I remember there is a  gas pedal too. Hope gets squashed under Memory. I don't remember which pedal is which. Is it the right one or the left? I don't know.

-1 km -before I fall to my death. I tip my head up and scream

"God, I challenge you. If I pick the right pedal, you will keep me alive. If I choose wrong I will come to you without Opal. Leave her alone."

-500 m- before I fall. Right then I swear I hear laughter coming from the sky.

-400m-

-300m-

-200m- I choose the right pedal.

-100m- I leap on it and push with all of my might.

-1m- I open my eyes to see sunlight filter through dust. I gasp. I lived. I hear a baby cry. Opal! I leap to the back and  to my relief Opal is live and well. I take her out of the cradle, get out of the car and walk to the sign before I see black and collapse. My last thought: I did it. I beat god.
