The Voices.

Chapter Two.

The world is a dark place.
You may not know or notice but it is.
So much death and destruction...sometimes you never realize just how messed up the world is...until you become equal with the worlds darkness.
You probably never stopped to think about this, but I'm forced to think about these things.
It's scary to think that every second, someone around the world is either dead, dying or committing suicide.
I suppose I could think about good things, like how a baby is born every second...but then I think about how the mother almost always dies while giving birth...sometimes the baby does too.
My murderous urges have been getting stronger and stronger. I mostly stay in my room trying to find ways to get the demon out of my head....but she's getting stronger.....I don't think I'll be in control for much longer..but I have to try and maintain control...I have to.....

" I can't believe she's actually dead though...you know? It's just so hard to cope with....I hated her but I didn't want her to die...." Jessica said as she leaned against the brick wall with a soft sigh.

" Sarah wasn't exactly a good person...but yeah...she didn't deserve to die....especially not in the way that she DID die..." Abbie murmured softly, her eyes were dull from sadness.

Sarah had been Abbie's friend when they were younger. But as they grew older, their friendship started to fade and Sarah chose popularity over friendship.....

Flashback. Ten years ago.

" Why can't I play as Ariel? I always have to be Cinderella." Six year old Abbie pouted.

" Because Ariel has red hair and Cinderella has yellow. I have red hair and you have yellow hair. That's why." Six year old Sarah said as though it was obvious.

Abbie groaned loudly as she set the Cinderella doll onto the bed while pouting.

" Hey...you're not mad are you?" Sarah poked Abbie's cheek.

Abbie stayed silent with her little arms over her chest.

" Hey, we're going to be friends forever right?" Sarah's lower lip trembled.

Abbie turned to Sarah and sighed nodding in agreement.

" Yeah...we are." Abbie agreed which made Sarah smile.

" Yay! Let's go get ice cream!" Sarah stood up and ran out the door with Abbie following.

" Abbie? ABBIE!" Jessica's voice jolted Abbie out of her memories.

" What? Sorry...I zoned out..." Abbie laughed awkwardly but her voice held no humor.

" What's wrong, hun? You're crying... " Jessica frowned lightly.

Abbie touched her cheek to find that she was in fact crying, without knowing.

" Oh it's nothing. I'm fine." Abbie managed to give them a reassuring smile, but it didn't reach her eyes.

The others didn't look to sure but they said nothing, not wanting to pressure her.

" I wonder if they're still going through with prom though? Despite....everything that's happening...." Catherine piped up which startled the other girls.

" Uh...I'm not sure.....but they haven't told us otherwise so I'd assume that it's still going to happen." Ella said while brushing her long hair back, awkwardly.

" Good....I'm still looking forward to it....and I think it'll be good to get our minds off of these things....even if it is just for one night." Catherine said as she sat next to Jessica who moved over a little so that she would have more room.
