That One Time

The Take Over

Still Karlie, you didn't really think I wouldn't tell you, did you?? Well I'm done with making that mistake, it nearly caused Sasha her life, not telling her what was here, with us. It was the thing we heard go bump in the night, it's the shadow we see out of the corner of our eyes, the things our parents would warn us about when we were young, no, not the boogie man, although not that far from it.

So, there, in front of my eyes, taking control of my best friend (although I would never say it) was the "One Timer". The One Timer was a thing, that would look like an average human during the day, but at night, you'd be lucky if all he did was take over you, extremely lucky. He would only do it to the "newbies" in the town, we were meant to tell them straight away what happens, and to be at home by 7:16, to be in your room by 9:19 and have your door locked, but I didn't, because I was stupid, I was too desperate to make a new friend and get way from my parents, I know what you're thinking, "why does the popular girl need to make friends??" Well a lot of girls are intimidated by me and don't want to be my friend. Anyway, back to what happened to Sasha, the One Timer had taken over her brain, her body, she didn't have control, she couldn't speak, couldn't move, nothing. It was all the One Timer.

I tried to run, run to Sheila, to wake her up, (Sasha's mum) to warn her she might be next, to warn her to get in her car and drive away... but half way there, I heard a blood curdling scream.
"SHEILA!!!!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, I looked behind me, she wasn't there, I continued running, did I forget to mention that the One Timer can teleport?? Well he can. I made it to her room, the One Timer got there first.
"What are you doing, what are you , why are you here, what did I do??!!" Sheila cried out.
"Do you know the towns history?? That One Time" replied the One  Timer, the only things he could say, yet they always made perfect sense. Sasha, taken over by the One Timer, ripping her own mothers eyes out, repeating "that One Time, that One Time. The towns history, do you know it?? The towns history, do you know it??" And then... silence, only thing you could hear was the ambulance that I had called before hand. The One Timer had left, Sasha was waking up. It had ended, it would never be the same.
