I raced out of the church and into the parking lot of the cemetery. I raced passed the large tomb stones with angels and various crosses, adrenaline running through my blood. I stopped as I saw the shiny black Audi R8 waiting for me. Quickly, I opened the door and slid into the leather seat. With a flick of my wrist I awakened the beast, ready to execute my plan. The engine purred to life and I griped the staring wheel. My knuckles turned white as I peeled out of the cemetery like a bat out of hell, winding my way around the ever going roads until I flashed out of the great iron gates leaving only falling leaves in my wake.
I race to the old oak tree and stopped, watching it. I could see where the bark was stripped off the trunk where Erik’s Mustang had hit it. The tree was all but torn down from the impact, making me wonder just how fast my baby brother was going. A few more tears slid down my cheeks, but I quickly whipped them away. A small smile replaced my sadness as I thought about what was coming.
Memories of me and Erik as children flooded my mind. We would run into the neighbors yard, steal their dog, and pretend we were investigators looking for missing children in the woods. By the time we would find our way home, it would be well past dark and the neighbors would have a fit because their prized pooch was missing. When I came back to reality, I reversed and drove, accelerating as I went.
The jumping cliff came into view and a wider smile played on my face. The jumping cliff most likely isn’t what you’re thinking. Cliff diving is something well known to this area, so jumping off a cliff and into freezing cold water was something normal. However, barreling off the cliff in a bullet like car with no plan on leaving it wasn’t normal. Far from it. And that’s exactly what I planned.
I watched the needle climb higher and higher on the dash as I got closer and closer to the edge. The car dipped over the peak and for a minute I felt weightless. Every single part of me felt right. Like everything was perfect, unadulterated bliss.
My Audi then plunged down, and everything I was doing felt wrong. Even though I wanted to be with my brother. I missed him so much, but I didn’t want to meet him again like this. The car hit the water and panic began to rise. My head smashed against the windshield and I could feel blood begin to pour down my face. My vision began to blur. The pain in my head was intense, nothing could describe it.
Blackness threatened my sight, as I tried to pry open the door but it seemed to be stuck. Water began to seep through God knows where and more panic flooded into my heart. Again and again I tried to push open the door only to repeatedly fail. More water drowned the car nearly up to my shoulders now. It was going up fast.
In a sad attempt to break the glass, I kicked at the window with all my might. Nothing happened though, and sorrow filled my heart. I was trapped. The water was just above my nose now and I sank down to meet it. I sat in my seat and cried. Or what I thought was crying, for I was completely underwater and didn’t feel the tears.
The burn of them however was there and even though I couldn’t feel the tears I imagined I was in a cartoon and I could see huge tears dragging down the length of my face even though I was completely submerged in water. My lungs began to ache as air left me. I could just barely hold my breath. Something moved in front of me but the blackness was too much. I caught a flash of something that looked like a person swimming, but knew it couldn’t be.
And just like that i sliped into unconsciousness.
