Sector 18

RANDOM SCARS AND MISSING TIME

I got out at Lankford's and stood beside the red colored Lamborghini car with a skull designed on it's rear. Then I checked the time on my watch, it's 11:28 A.M. already.. so I headed to my Ducati motorcycle, parking outside. I hop on it and put the grocery stuff in front of me behind the wind screen, so it won't fall if the speed of my vehicle is high. Then I started the engine and starts reeving up the throttle grip.

As I left the parking lot on Lankford's.. I saw the mysterious girl staring at me again. She's standing south east, right beside the traffic light in Dennis street.

I keep on thinking "What the heck's wrong with this girl.. why is she keeps staring at me?"

then I drove at a high speed so that I can get away from her. I looked back at the traffic light were the mysterious girl stood... but she's gone! so I look forward again and I almost got hit by a white colored taxi in the Intersection.

I saw the bearded taxi driver poking his head out of the window saying "HEY, WATCH IT!! are you stupid or something!??"

I replied "Sorry! I didn't mean it!!"

Then I slowed down a bit and made a right turn from the intersection, moments later and I arrived at Bomar street.. and it was empty, what I mean is.. TOTALLY empty! I was shocked when I saw the Bomar street being desolate.

Because I still remember there's a lot of people walking back and forth everytime I pass this street.. that's why I'm totally creeped out when I arrived on Bomar street and find it desolated.

In my surprise, I softly said
"Whoa... where did everybody go?" while turning my head left and right and slowly driving as if I was searching for any civilians, but I never saw a single soul at all.

Even the shops beside the streets are empty, the area was eerily silent...

Until I heared a faint sound coming from the distance.. it sounds like an early bird tweeting, mixed with a rustling sound. I followed the soft fainting sound because I had no Idea where the sound comes from. Then out of nowhere the street is filled with fog, the fog around me thickened.. until I can't barely see the streets anymore.

I stopped driving, because the fog totally engulfed me. After a 3 minutes of staying still, I looked around searching for a pathway out of that street. Then all of a sudden a yellow pulsating light emerged from the fog, it's not just an ordinary yellow light.. it was sorrounded with a small orb-like golden light. I can see a little pathway of the street because of the strange pulsating light.

I got attracted to it, so I reeved up my motorcycle and I starts moving towards the pulsating light. I approached it out of curiousity.. and I felt the same weird sensation in Lankford's. As I passed through the pulsating light, I find myself at the end of the Bomar street.. a dark sorroundings enveloped me, until I realized it's night time already!

I felt really... REALLY creepy, I said "Holy... cow, what's happening?"

I slowed down and halted on the pavement near the lamp post then I looked back to Bomar street, the fog was gone and the street lights were on.. bustling with people again, and I was 35 meters away from it.

It becomes more creepier when I checked the time on my brown colored wristwatch, I take a look at it and the time reads 7:28 P.M.. the groceries that I bought remained intact behind the wind screen of my motorcycle though. I pulled out my android phone on the left side of my pocket only to find out that the battery was empty.

I said on a puzzled tone "How can this be? I just fully charged it before I left the house!"

I paused for a moment on a shock state and I keep on  wondering what happened to me for the last 8 hours.. then I realized that my family is worried by now, so I started the engine on my motorcycle.. and drive hurriedly to our home. When I arrived at our house.. I saw mom and my dad Cain peeking out the window, like they were waiting for me for a long time. Dad has a reddish hair, not-so tanned skin, light brown eyes, european-like nose, medium looking lips, and a little bit of mustache.

I stopped and parked the motorcycle near the garage at the front lawn, then mom opened the door and goes outside followed by dad.

"What took you so long?" mom asked.

"Mom.. dad, Let's just... talk inside Ok?" I tiredly replied.

The three of us got inside our house and I handed out to mom the groceries that I bought. I saw Mitch on the living room sitting on the light blue colored sofa, engrossingly playing PS4. Then dad suddenly asked me "Where have you been son? we're getting worried.."

I scratched my soft brown colored hair and I nervously replied "Oh! about that... i just.. got hooked at the science fair on the mall, that's why I didn't come home early.."
of course, I didn't told them the truth.. about what really happened to me, because I know they won't believe me at all.

Mitch noticed our conversation and paused the PS4 that she played, then she turn around from the sofa that she sat on, and said..
"Uhh.. what?? you..? watching a science fair!? haha.. come on... I thought you said your not an outgoing person?"

"Yeeeahh... I may have said that, but I just realized I need to amuse myself sometimes.." I replied while rubbing my thumb and my point finger together.

Mom and dad stared at me, then mom says "Ok, seems your reason is descent enough.. I think you need to go the kitchen and  eat something.."

Dad goes upstairs and mom entered the laundry room. I entered the kitchen then I opened the fridge to grab some burgers.. I ate it then I brushed my teeth.

I didn't saw Dave in our house because he has a job to do at EHRA.. and he's not home yet.

After awhile.. I go upstairs and entered my room, then I saw my grandmother... Merci. She's 72 years old.. Her hair is a mixture of brown and white, and she has a baggy blue eyes, wrinkled forehead, pointy nose, not-so pale skin, and a thin wrinkled lips.

I saw her inside my room like she's searching for something.. then she asked me
"My boy, have you seen my sewing kit??"

I replied "No I didn't saw your sewing kit in my room granny.. besides, what am I gonna do to your sewing kit anyway?"

She says "Oh.. is that so? because I never saw it in my bedroom.. I still remember that I used to put it above my closet..  hmm... maybe I misplaced it somewhere." then she exits my room.

I felt really weird of what happened to me this day.. and I'm sure it takes time to get over it. Then all of a sudden my head hurts, and I feel dizzy.. then I didn't noticed that I collapsed and hit the floor out of exhaustion.

The next morning, I heared a mumbling and someone was poking my left shoulder saying
"Hey,hey,hey, pssst! wake up.."

I opened my eyes and saw Dave, I slowly rise on a leaning position while Dave says "What were you doing on the floor?"

"I have no Idea..." I replied.

He winces and said "I think you just fell from your bed. Now, get your ass off the ground.. and wash up!" Then he goes outside the room.

I got up and starts walking to my bedroom mirror, like I always do every morning. After awhile of staring and posing in the mirror.. I felt a ticklish sensation on my abs, so I flipped upward my clothes to take a look at it.

I was shocked of what I saw, there's a triangle shaped scar with a reddish powder on it's outline.

Then I said on a creeped out tone
"What the heck is this?" while rubbing the triangle shaped scar on my abs.
