(Book 1) Darkness Falls: Into a Wolf's & Cat's eyes

Chapter 7

Gmel's POV:

      The door opened up with a creek as I pushed it open with my arm. When I walked into into the room it was well lit with sunlight that came through the window which had half open blinds. I glanced around the room holding the container of shrimp, in my hand. I saw the stranger laying in bed,"Hey" I spoke kinda awkwardly. There was just a bit of silence, he just laid there not saying anything. He wasn't even really moving at all, part of me thought he was ignoring me but when I slowly walked over, I saw he was asleep! He was laying on his back his head was to the side which made his pure black hair cover over his face. I starred at him for a couple seconds, before I glanced behind me to stare at his necklace that was in the same place I left it.

       For a moment I felt nothing but fear, part of me was saying to just leave the room the stranger is asleep, but the other part of me said to investigate the necklace ounce more. For some reason I felt like I couldn't look away, it felt like time stood still as I starred.
---------------------------------------------
The shifting of the stranger snapped me out of it, and made me jump a little. I slowly turned around but to my surprise he was, gone? My eyes widen,"What the...." I backed up only to bump into something, it felt rough as if it wore armor? Wait what? Armor? A deep growl came from behind me and part of me thought I wasn't going to like this. My head slowly shifted up with my eyes following, I froze. A large creature starred at me, it was bigger then me! It's head shifted down so it would meet my gaze, it grinned showing sharp teeth it's eyes were just one full of color no pupils or anything!

I gave a nervous smile along with a chuckled,"H-heh...huh hhheeeeeyyyyyy.." I was shaking. I even gave a very small wave,"H-ow is it-it going?" The creature just starred at me with no response, which really was I expecting one? I kinda casually walked forward and turned around to face the creature, which now that I looked at it. It was WAY bigger then I thought, and it looked a lot like a. Like a. Demon. Was this really a demon in front of me? No way it can't be they aren't real! It had a long tail that lashed back and forth causing things around it to fall and break. CRASH! I flinched at the sound of the items falling to the ground shattering.

       The creature gave a soft growl that was barley audible, I kept backing up. As I backed up the creature just followed, its eyes were starring straight into mine. I could feel myself trembling as I back up, with every step back my leg shook in fear. I backed up to the door I quickly moved my hand across the door and ounce I found the door knob, I grabbed it. I quickly turned the knob and swung the door opened, and as the door opened the creature quickened its pace to me. I quickly ran through the door, but I admittedly regretted it and was shocked at what awaited me.

     The door was like the edge of a cliff! There was nothing but a river of rushing water, my eyes widen! How was this possible!? It wasn't, this wasn't possible! I trembled and lost my footing from the edge of the door and fell. I was falling, falling so fast it was almost impossible to breath or scream in fear. I landed in the water with a big splash.
-------------------------------------------
I jolted awake! I was sitting on a chair right next to the necklace, I don't know if it were just my eyes adjusting to the light but I could've sworn the necklace was glowing. It stopped though, I yawned and rubbed my eye still kinda waking up? My heart was racing, and I tried to clam down. I don't even know how I ended up near this thing. I couldn't get my head around this, it made no sense. Demons don't exist! These weird feelings, these weird visions shouldn't be happening! I just put my head in my hands and groaned just wanting this to end.

I then glanced back at the stranger, he was still sound asleep. Was I not napping that long? I didn't care, I didn't care one bit! I just needed to get my mind off this! I don't want to tell Jess, she doesn't need to worry I can deal with this on my own. That's what I will tell myself until further notice, I am fine, I'm not going crazy I thought in my head. I stood up still kinda waking up, I sighed and took one final glanced at the sleeping stranger. I left the shrimp here for him, I just felt out of it. I didn't want to take this back to the house because, I wasn't going back to the house.

    I was going to go to the library and try to get to the bottom of this. As much as I wanted it to end, and as much as I wanted to just forget it. I felt the need to find out why this was happening. I was determined, to find out.
