Truth Or Dare; Live Or Die

Chapter Thirteen: Death?

The light was a bright white. It swirled around me. My body had no active senses, it was all. Care-free. Peaceful. My eyelids fluttered, half-closed. My soul was being pulled into the light. Suddenly, pain shot from my chest, in the same place as my heart. The white dress covering my body began to bloom red. My long, dark hair became wet and matted.

"Star! Sami!" Mario yelled.

Sami's eyes were still red. My own were distant and glazy. My shirt was wet, and I felt something warm running down my chest and stomach. Looking down, a glimpse of silver protruded from my chest. Samis hand was on the handle. She had stabbed me. Looking behind her, I could see the dark figure, but a gleaming white smile. Disgusted in what this thing was doing to my friends, I pulled the knife out of my chest, grimacing. Ignoring the blood spilling from my chest, I threw my blade at the figure, hitting it in the stomach. Putting Sami back into her spot, I watched as her eyes changed back to their original blue-green. I lit her candle again, then came back into the middle. I was the only one bloody. Good.

"Next... Scott?" I said.

Scott nodded. "Dare."

I picked up the Dare card hesitantly.

"Commit... s-s..." I stuttered.

"Commit what?..." Scott asked.

I looked in straight in his eyes, tears spilling down my blood-streaked cheeks. "Commit suicide."

Everyone went quiet. They were all staring at Scott. He stared at me. His face went pale. He got up and walked out of the pentagram, breaking his invisible protective dome. I got up and followed him, stupidly.

"S-Scott... where are you going?" I asked.

His voice didnt sound like his own. "To carry out my dare."

"..."

"Why are you following me, Star?"

"I wont let you. I will protect you all with my life." I said.

"Oh, then protect this." His voice was deeper, and he seemed to growl at me.

Something hit me in the head, hard. I went flying, ramming into a tree. Sliding down, I looked up, confused. A tall, black man stood above me. "Im sick of you trying to save these little bitches." He said. "Anything to protect those I love." I snarled back. He grabbed my neck, picking me up off the ground. He held me to the tree as I used my fingernails to claw at his hands. "You're just like all of us," he said, "you too are a freak, you just wont be yourself." I laughed in his face. Literally laughing in the face of death. "Im not like any of you. I may be a monster, but my friends mean everything to me.  I wont stoop so low." I stared the demon in the eyes. His eyebrows narrowed, his grip tightening. I coughed up blood. "You were a mistake." He said. He flung me across the area, making me hit the ground with a painful thunk. The man walked towards me, kicking me hard in the stomach. Blood spilled from my mouth. I heard Sami calling my name faintly. I looked over to where Scott stood, he held a knife to his neck. I saw his blood beading from his neck.

"S-Sami... get..outta ... here..." I whispered. The man, whom only I could see, raised a blade over my back. I didnt fight back. All of the power drained from my body.

Scott slit his neck open. Sami screamed.

The blade went into my back.

"S-Scott... no..." My hand hit the ground, eyes fluttering closed.

This is it.... I thought. S-Scott...Sami... Noah... Mario... Trinity... Jason....
