Onyx's POV -

My eyes flicker open as I roll onto my side. 

It's still storming outside, Jinxx is gone, and I think i'm going crazy.

I get up and walk into the living room. I look out the window and silhouette bird dude is gone. 

"Thank God!" I say to myself and fall back onto the couch. 

"I think i'm going crazy" I groan to myself as I hold my head in my hands.

...

I decide to get my lazy ass up and get ready for the day. 

I walk into the bathroom and turn on the shower. 

I undress myself and watch the steam cover the top of the mirror as the shower heats up.

...

I step out of the shower and wrap myself in a towel. 

I dry myself off and put my bra and under ware back on, and ring out my bright bubble gum pink hair and throw it up in a towel. I walk over and open the bathroom door to find a box at my feet. 

"What the fuck!" I scream and I kick the box into my studio, across from the bathroom.

"I'm not opening that box" I quietly and angrly say to myself as I walk into the kitchen to turn on the coffee pot. 

I walk back into the bathroom and plug in my hair dryer and blow dry my hair.

I happen to hear a knock at the door. 

I unplug my hair dryer and walk to the door. 

"Hey Jinxx!" I say happily, holding the door open. 

"H-Hey Onyx. Um." He says as he points at my body. 

I look down to see that i'm still only in my bra and under ware. 

"Oh yeah, I don't care. What did you need?" I question. 

"Well I heard a scream a couple of minutes ago and I knew it came from you. So I thought that i'd come and check on you" He says looking me straight in the eyes 

"Oh Jinxx, i'm fine...Here come in and have some coffee" I say motioning him into my apartment.

Jinxx sits down at the bar with his coffee, watching me frantically run around my house trying to get ready.

I lean over the sink and put my snake bites in, then I slightly curl my hair. 

I unplug the curler and go to my room to find an outfit. 

I pick out a pair of ripped skinny jeans and a Gun's N' Roses tank top with all black Converse.

"Hey Onyx" Jinxx yells as I walk out of my room.

"Yeah Jinxx?" I say as I walk into the studio to see that Jinxx is looking through the box that I had kicked earlier. 

"What's this?" Jinxx questions pulling out a 17th century plague doctor mask from the box.

"Um...I have no clue where that came from" I say as I sit down next to him on the couch in the studio. 

"Then where did it come from?" Jinxx asks turning the mask around in his hands. 

"I don't know? Earlier I just walked out of the bathroom and that box was in the door way" I say tearing up. I seriously think i'm going crazy. 

"And last night I saw a guy in the rain and-and he was standing on the sidewalk and he was wearing one of those masks and-and I don't know anymore!" I cry as Jinxx sets the mask down and pulls me into a tight hug as I cry into his shoulder.

"Jinxx I think i'm going crazy" I say still sobbing into his shoulder. 

"Your not crazy" he says, rubbing large circles into my back. 

"Let's go out to a cafe or something" Jinxx says pulling away from the hug. 

"Ok" I say as I wipe my tears.

we walk out of the apartment building and onto the street. 

I freeze in my spot as I see the silhouette dude walking down the other side of the street. 

Might I add where in the fuck did all the other people go! They just disappeared! 

"What the fuck is happening to me?" I scream as the silhouette dude turns and runs towards me. 

"Ahh!" I scream as the person in the mask takes a small dagger from their belt loop and stabs me in the side. It didn't hurt though.

But all I saw of this person is their beautiful piercing brown eyes.

Then I see the darkness take me away.

Am I dead?
