Black and Blue

1

At first all was darkness then light shone through what seemed to be thick layers of trees. A forest.

“You are Hollow.” A voice said, it came from the moon. But that was all, silence came after that voice. I sat up to see me attire was a black tank top, black jeans, an orange skirt, and a black hoodie vest. A had on a necklace with a black cat charm on it. My hair pitch black with orange and purple highlights swooped to the left side. I looked around and saw trees covered in snow and a lake, close to freezing over. Looking into the lake I could see my eyes were a mixture of purple and grey, an unusual color for a human. I slowly stood up and realized that a staff that was on the ground. It looked as if it was part of a Halloween costume. I was wooden but black, at the top was onyx gem. I picked it up and it started to glow a purple color then stopped. My name is Hollow. I must be somewhat involved with Halloween. I closed my eyes and thought about Halloween. I opened my eyes to find dark shadows surrounding me. I jumped up to dodge one and started to fly. My bare feet were just letting me fly. I smirked and started to fly the shadows following me closely. I stopped when I saw sand in the sky. It glistened gold and was just beautiful in the sky. When I touched it, it surrounded me and formed little cat and pumpkins carved for Halloween. I smiled as I faded into the sky. I flew to the ground and landed in an alleyway. I started to walk around the streets. When I went to put my hands in my pockets, I pulled out a MP3 and headphones. I turned on the MP3 to find Black Veil Brides, Pierce the Veil, Sleeping with Sirens, and Blood on the Dance Floor, Rise Against, and many more. As I looked up I was about to run into a man but he just walked through me. I froze and others did the same, they walked through me and they didn’t see me. Shadows surrounded me and when they parted I was in a different outfit, now black long sleeve and orange skinny jeans. As my shadows faded into the air it started to snow. I looked up into the air

“No can see me….Or hear me…..” I said to myself. I turned my music up and put the headphones in and walked around aimlessly. I was knocked out of the trace the music put me in when I ran into something and I fell to the ground.

“Ow.” I mumbled. I took my headphones out and saw a boy my age. I ran into him? He had white hair and was looking right at me.

“Can you see me?” He asked.

“Yeah would I not? Wait you can see me?” I said

“What do you mean?” He asked.

“I don’t know…..I just woke up in a forest and people can’t see or hear me.” I said.

“Huh………Well I’m Jack, Jack Frost.” He said standing up and offering to help me up.

“I’m Hollow.” I said taking his hand.
