~ Flashback ~
That morning you woke up feeling sick, your muscles were weak and you could barely move. It was also on the day your parents had planned their trip to England, it had been planned for months and they couldn't cancel it to take care of you, so they called a caretaker to watch you while they were away.
They left at exactly 10:13 AM, you remember that fact perfectly, you also remember the color of your father's suitcase, a dark, navy blue. Once they were gone, your caretaker gave you some medicine which eased your upset stomach, she layed a cool washcloth on your head as well, which was to help your high temperature.
For most of the day you slept, unaware that, while you slept, your parents plane stalled in midair, and crashed into the sea, leaving no survivors. You woke up later in the day, and the first thing you saw was your caretaker with a very tense look on her face.
Once she notices you awake, she looks away, avoiding eye contact, and says, "Y/N, I have some very bad news." She pauses, and takes a breath before continuing, "Your parents plane crashed into the sea earlier today, there were no survivors, I'm sorry Y/N," she murmurs.
You felt tears come to your eyes, both your parents were dead? You were only thirteen, how could they both be dead? How could you be an orphan?
You struggled to sit up, wanting to see the photograph of you and your parents that sat on your dresser. Then your caretaker's voice sounded in your ears again, "We have a couple willing to take you in, they have a girl around your age, her name is Crystal."
You found yourself nodding, even though the pain of your parents death was still raging throughout your body.
"Alright Y/N, I'll contact them and tell them you will be moving in," your caretaker murmured quietly, then she went downstairs, you heard her on the phone with someone else. Crystal... You recognized that name, why? Then you realized why, Crystal was one of the few girls who was nice to you at school, she was one of your closest friends.
You immediately brightened and started packing, living with Crystal wasn't ideal to living with your parents, but it was better than living with someone you didn't know. Once you were finished packing, you grabbed the picture off your dresser, you stroke your fingers down the glass, kissing the picture before wrapping it in tissues and tucking it into the smaller of your two bags.
You looked up as your caretaker walked back in, she froze, surprised at seeing you all packed up. She got over her surprise quickly, "I assume you're ready to go?" She asks, and you nod. "Please speak Y/N," she says softly, and you shake your head, feeling as if you would never speak again.
Your caretaker sighs, and leads you outside to her car, you load both of your bags into the back and sit in the passenger seat. Your caretaker gets in the driver's seat, starting up the car and pulling out of your driveway, you watched as your house fades away, knowing you would never see it again.
A short, ten minute drive later, you arrive at Crystal's familiar house, you'd been there a few times, and you knew it pretty well. As soon as your car pulled into the driveway, you saw Crystal come running out of the house, her short, white-blonde hair flapping behind her. She dashes up to the car and jerks open your door, her sapphire blue eyes shining with tears, "Y/N! I'm so sorry! When we heard about your parents, my parents immediately called to ask to take you here!" she says very quickly in one breath.
You put a hand on her shoulder, and smile, showing her you were fine without words, Crystal nodded back at you, and grabbed your bags from the back, running into the house and putting them inside. You go to follow, but turn to look at your caretaker one last time. She's smiling, you smile as well and wave goodbye, she waves back, then you run inside. You stop just inside the doorway, looking around, so this was your new home.~ Flashback end ~
Now, two years later, some strange things are going to happen, strange things that will result in the death of many...
