I sigh as I sit down on the couch watching the boring news, just hearing that a guy named Jonny just killed two children in the park.

I mean, why would he even do that? So many questions unanswered I could find out, but I don't even have the time.

I gazed to the television once more, hearing more information about the murder and the two children. Appears that the two children where the age of five and nine, both boy and girl.

There names where Nicola and Mimi.

"God bless them......poor kiddos....." I sigh shaking my head in shame about the murder, "When will the world get better...." I then asked myself, standing up getting ready to go outside.

I guess.

Grabbing my notebook. I opened the door going outside forgetting to turn off the television. "Mom! I'm going outside for a while!" I called out to my mother who was in the kitchen.

"Alright sweetie, be careful alright. I don't want to find out that you were killed as well." my mother called back.

Stepping outside I took a deep breath and let it out and finally starting to walk away to the park.

"Reporting News!: Stay inside in all cost of your life. A disease is spreading wildfire around the globe! Please, stay inside, don't go outside. Keep yourself or your children safe."

I passed a few bushes of flowers as they looked beautiful under the sunlight adding a bit of shade as well. Hearing childish giggles, I gazed around to see little kids running around the park playing catch or hide and go seek. This view made me smile, I don't know why, but I always had a thing seeing others happy, and it makes me happy as well.

After a few minutes of gazing around and walking, I got the chance to sit down on the bench. "Alright.....what to sketch?" to whisper to myself getting my and notebook ready. Thinking for a while, I remember the bushes of flowers, and started sketching them.

Meanwhile, I didn't notice a little boy running up to me. "Those are nice flowers." he then spoke taking a sit next to me. This made me quickly close my notebook without knowing.

I snapped my head to look at him, he looked familiar....really familiar, but yet, I don't know him. "U--uhh...Thanks?" I replied but it sounded more like a question.

"What's your name?" the kid asked out loud, making me slightly smile, I haven't had a random conversation with a stranger in a long time. "Names Angela. You?" I replied to him, putting my notebook away.

He smiles brightly, or more like an innocent smile. "My is Nicola!" he chirps with pride in his voice, I slightly froze upon hearing his name.

Nicola.

Nicola. The kid. The boy that died a few hours ago.

"N-nicola..." I stuttered in disbelief, blinked a few times to make sure if I was seeing him. I was seeing a dead boy after all! Nicola notices this, and his eyes darken a bit, a small shadow looming over him.

"Angela. Or should I say, Flower taker?" his voice turned dark, his child like voice was gone. I felt my heart beep in fear, backing slightly off the bench, shivers on my back.

"Remember! One by one! All of you are goi--"

I then heard an echo in my head, they sounded like one of those crazy maniac. But one by one? What did they meant by that? W-

"Angela. Run." Nicola distributed my thinking making me look down at him, in fear. I held my head, standing up stumbling a bit.

Turning my heel, I did as told and ran away, ran away somewhere where he can't find me.

Where they can't know.

I bumped into couple of people, saying sorry in the process but some of them just snarled at me making me huff in annoyance as well. But I kept on running, until I took a turn.

"That kid sure gave me the chills...." I panted as I turn around, getting into a empty alleyway. I stopped dead on my tracks but then falling onto my knees, trying to control my breath.

I wasn't one to run.

Hearing a rumble in the trash bags against the wall, I slightly flinched yet stood the same. I stared at it, waiting for something or someone to come out and attack me.

Then a little mew was then heard, a young looking cat came out of the trash, it was grey looking with some flowers on their ears and tail. Yeah. Weird right? But it actually looked adorable.

It meowed at me, walking up to me without thinking it twice, "What is a little one like you doing here?" I started brushing its fur with my hand, making it purr.

The cat purred louder rubbing its face with my hand, but looked up to me, it bright yellow eyes stared into my light brown eyes, like it was staring straight into my soul.

Like it wasn't giving mercy right now.

After a few seconds, it gave me a smug look, and bite right down to my hand. "AH!" I hiss in pain taking my hand back seeing the blood slowly running down.

I cringe at the sight, I made me want to vomit and choke, I never liked the seeing of blood. The cat started to laugh, literally laugh, not a cat like laugh but a human being one. "What the?!" I back up hitting the back of the wall.

The cat continued to laugh, "Foolish humans! They will all die! All of them! Every single one, that'll show them!" they continue to laugh, their eyes where now green.

They then stared at me. Now two where staring into my soul, really to grab it, "You. Good luck with the suffering!" they giggled menacing, hopping into a fence, "You'll be one of them that'll suffer! SUFFER!" with that they ran away.

Suffer....

Their words where echoing into my head, over and over. I hold my hand in pain, trying to stop the blood running. I didn't know what to say, I didn't know what to do. I glimpse down to my hand, seeing a flower slightly covering the wound, I started to freak out more, and ripped the flowers apart.

I hiss in pain more when I ripped it out, a flower could hurt or what?! Both of my hands where now cover up with blood, one bleeding out, the other trying to stop it.

"I can't go home like this..." I mumble in disbelief, small tears building up in my eyes. I was scared, scared to death.

"Hey!" I heard someone called from behind making me turn around quickly, I look to see a boy with snow white hair, his mint green eyes had a worried expression.

"Hey, are you okay? Wait! You're bleeding out!" he then kneel down to me grabbing my hand in which I didn't protest against. "What happened?!" he kept on saying questions, I didn't answered, I didn't want to.

He then took off his backpack and started to take out something.

It was a first aid kit I believe.

He than starts wrapping my hand with bandages, which I was staring at the whole time. "There. This should help. Now tell me, what happened?" he then let my hand go as I just examined it.

"Who are you?" I then had the guts to say, I don't know this boy. "Nigel. Just Nigel." he then stands up holding out his hand in offer which I greatly took. "Angela. " I mumble once I stood up.

"Thanks you anyways, I'll have to go. By the way, a weird looking cat bit me." I looked back at him staring in his eyes, as he stated at mines.

There I walked away from him, not saying anymore.

"I should get to home." I mumble to myself as I arrived at the park close to my house.

"Suffer. You'll suffer until you give up. UNTIL EVERYONE DOES!"
