CORRUPT WITH SHADOW

CHAPTER 2

CHAPTER TWO. Darkness... Total darkness, then I started to dream... No. This felt too real, I felt myself floating in the void then it seemed like a whole world built all around me Pillars of stone raised up to form a small building with a very deadly looking door concealing its contents. I walked toward it, time felt still as random objects floated around in the air. I opened the door and I was greeted with a strange aroma and more darkness to lure me in. As I drew closer into the room, a pair of devilish red glowing eyes were staring at me. The door behind me closed shut, those eyes were the only light. Then 'FLASH!' A massive blast of light hit the room allowing me to see what was sharing it with. Blood stained the walls and floors, even the ceiling. I could make out the word 'SPENCER!' Written in blood behind the owner of those eyes. The figure stood tall and glared into me. He held a mask in his hand which was jet black and was only used to cover his mouth, for good reason. His teeth were massive, hanging out of his mouth and jet black to the colour of death itself. Stained with dried blood, his lips mimicked the same deathly colour. His freaky grin as he glared at me, he eerily whispered.

"Spennnncer grim...?" With that I woke up, tears dried up on my face I was still laying down in the nurses offices.

"He's awake!" Astrid beamed while Jarrod fiddled with something on his desk.

"I-I... Am I dead?" I groaned, it was obvious I woke up quite traumatically... What was that thing I saw?!

"Not yet..." Astrid smiled down at me, she sat beside me and had a worried yet relived expression on her face.

"Oh my god..." I put a hand up onto my face, tears. Wow... So to sum it up. Astrid practically carried me to the nurses office and now she's smiling at me while I look like a massive sook? What a day! "Shhhh it's okay... Lay back down." I did as she asked. I laid back and looked toward Jarrod.

"You were out cold for the whole of Phys ed." Sheesh. I thought to myself, that's the whole of third period gone, I smiled of somewhat relief. I hate sports. Especially since we have the girls in our class, constantly complaining and what not.

"What exactly happened, man?" I spoke out to the nurse. He and I were great friends, he always used to get me out of class for some advice on how to get with Ms Caspar, our German science teacher.

"Well..." He walked toward Astrid and I with a clipboard and said.

"Lucky Astrid got you here in time, from what I saw... It looked as if you were going to have a heart attack then you, slipped into a coma like state. Astrid woke you up when she noticed you were crying then suddenly. You woke up just now."

"I..." Should I tell them about the visions? Better not.

"Yeah, I was feeling strange pains in my head but, I didn't think this would happen."

"Better get you to class, you have Ms Caspar next." Jarrod and I exchanged knowing looks, I thanked Astrid after slowing being helped up to my feet. She hugged me and quickly made herself scarce.

"Hehe..." I was a bit dazed, flushed cheeks"

GO!!" Jarrod teased me out and we laughed to each other, I headed around the corner and headed up the stairs for another gruelling science lesson about, genetics.

"What's question six Spencer?" Jess spoke to me, her face beamed. Why was she always so happy? I'm glad she was in my class though, after helping her out I told her about what happened in the nurse's office.

"Jesus..." Jess seemed shocked, I smiled weakly and muttered.

"At least I'm okay now..."

"SPENCER!" Ms Caspar yelled out.
