Chapter 1

Alex pov
   It's my BIRTHDAY!! I'm finally turning 14. I get to leave my crappy middle school and start new. Since it's Sunday I can hang out with all my friend on 86th street, which has loads of shops and restaurants.
   As I'm getting ready I notice a mark on my stomach and chest. Weird.
   The people coming for my birthday are Phoebe Voss, Kristen Anderson, Bella Carter, Joyce Darwin, Selma Greenwood, and my cousin Kayla Garcia.
    Kayla is my best friend even though we are complete opposites. I've known her since I was 2 years old!
  —————————————————
   Once everybody is at my house we first go to Fireflies, which is an amazing pizza place.
  We are walking back home when Phoebe asks me about a line mark on my neck. I don't really pay attention to it and blame it on my necklace.
——————————————————
  Finally everyone's gone, now I can relax-
"ALEX!" My mother screams. I wince.
  "yeah..."
  "Did you do your homework?"
  "Yep," I lie, what it's not like it really matters.
  "You better have. Your ELA average needs to get better."
"I know mom."
—————————————————-
It's dark, my phone reads 3:30am. I see a shadowy figure in the corner.
The figure speaks, "I've been waiting for this day... today is the day you die."
"It's just a dream, just a dream," I chant.
"Just a dream? JUST A DREAM!? THIS IS ANYTHING BUT A DREAM!" As the figure screams he strides closed.
At this point my heart is racing and my hands are sweaty.
Now the figure is looming over me breathing heavily.
"This isn't real, it can't be," I stuttered.
In it's demonic voice the figure says, "Oh but Alex sweetie, it is. You can't wake up because it's not a dream."
He digs his claws into my chest twisting and turning and then......

....... I wake up
