whisper wars

prologue

some people say that we all have angels and devils right beside us.. they whisper in our thoughts what they think we should do.. and it will be upon our decision to make which choice to choose..   but like what my nana says.. its all just a myth

12 years ago

"nana! look! look! my tooth fell off!" i said laughing and running to find my grandmother

i finally found her sitting on her rocking chair reading a book, i stood in front of her and showed my tooth "look nana!"

"well, isn't that wonderful! " she says sweetly and takes a look at my tooth

"nana.. how come you still have all your teeth? and i lost mine?" i asked staring at her. my grandmother was gorgeous she had light brown hair, and bright blue eyes and very white teeth

"you're just growing up lillac," she said 

"but you have all your teeth and i lost one!" i said pouting.. i don't want to loose all my teeth

"hmmm.. well, imagine it like this. you're an apple tree and you bear apples, right?" she asked

"mm hmm!" i nodded 

"and if your apples are ripe then what do they do?" 

"they fall!" i said jumping on my nana and hugging her

she returned my hug with a tickle and my laughs and giggles filled the room. she pulled back to look at me

"but! even when they fall, they grow back again"

"nana! I'm hungry for apple pie!" 

"well? are you now?  go pick some apple outside. ill just prepare the crust"

i hopped off her lap and ran to our backyard where the apple tree was..

when i got there i picked up all the apples i found on the ground. i wanted to bring home a lot of apples to make lots of pies

it was sunset and the skies were filled with the colors orange, pink and white..  

i picked up 12 apples and was about to go home. when i heard voices.. whispers. calling to me..

"lillac."

the voices was leading to the dark forest . which nana told me never to go. nana said that i might get lost in the forest and the monsters will eat me.  but the voice seems to enchant me to follow it. it sounds of a sweet melody.

"lillac, lillac. please find me" the voice was soft 

so i dropped all the apples and ran to follow the voice in the dark woods.. dead trees were making shadows of monsters and the winds making noises that would make you run away and crawl under your bed.. but the sweet whispers leading me in held my attention instead

and after hours and hours of walking the voice got louder and louder until i found a large tree with a mirror in the middle of its trunk.. its the only tree alive in the forest and it bloomed with the most beautiful flowers 

in the mirror there was a blonde girl with light blue eyes looking back at me. smiling..  but she looked sad. like she was about to cry.

"you found me. my sweet lillac" she said

it was dark already and i heard my brother and nana's  faint voice calling me 

"i have to go. my brother is looking for me" i said

"your brother.." she started sobbing "ohh how much i would give to see him again"

"don't cry! tomorrow i could come back and bring him with me" i said smiling

"lillac sweetie... no. don't come back. never comeback in the woods. got that?"

"but you called me" 

"yes.. i did. and i just want to tell you.. that no matter what happens, never think you are alone.. "

i nodded carefully taking in her words and took a step back.. she was beautiful honestly.. and sweet and nice. i wanna be just like her when i grow up

she smiled warmly  "ohh and here" her hand passed through the mirror holding a violet colored gem necklace. 

i took it from her and placed it on my pocket...  it was dark and i didn't hear my brother anymore.  

"whats your name?" i asked

she smiled and there were tears in her eyes.. "my name is--"

she was cut off by the scream that was heard towards the direction of my house

"oh no.. nana" she said wide eyed 

"nana?" i asked

"lillac. go home! find Jason and go!" she said 

"but why? i can come back later. I'm a big girl now. i wanna stay here with you" i said obviously oblivious to everything that is happening

"no! lillac go home! and never come back to the forest ever! understand?!" she was shouting at me. mad. but i didn't do anything wrong

"now! lillac! run! now! get home as fast as you can!"

i nodded and started running as fast i could.  now i heard my brothers voice calling out for me

"lillac! where are you?!"

"jason! right here!"

when i finally got out the forest. i was welcomed by the hug of my big brother. crying and hugging me tightly

"'jason? why are you crying?" 

"where were you? i thought.." he was sobbing

"where's nana?" i asked

"lillac. what happened?"

"i told nana we were gonna make some pie and i went out too pick some apples and then there were whispers calling for me. and i followed and it lead to the forest and it was dark but she was nice..."

"wait.wait.wait you went to the forest alone?"

i nodded

"lillac you could have died in there!"

"I'm sorry"

he sighed "lets go. we need to call the police"

"why?.. what about nana?"

he ignored my question and just kept walking holding my hand

"jason! wheres nana?"

he pulled on my hand tighter

"jason!" i shouted pulling my hand back

"she's gone! OK? shes gone!" he shouted back at me

"what do you mean?"

when i finally pulled my hand free i ran towards the house ignoring the calls of my brother

when i finally got to the house it was quiet. and the only light that lit the house was in the kitchen

"nana?" i said as i carefully make my way towards the kitchen

when i got there the was blood pooling behind the counter.. 

i gasped as i saw nana's dead body lie on the floor with a knife on her throat

'lillac!"  jason caught up to me and carried me outside. while i  was still in much in shock to react.

and i blacked out.
