The Hunted

Chapter Four

BOOM! In came my mom storming through the bathroom door. I awoke quickly and noticed the fury in her eyes.

"Mum, what's wrong?!"

"Where's the girl?! Where were you this morning after sunrise?!"

"Girl? You mean Olivia? Last time we spoke she was in the hospital and after sunrise I was laying in the field. How about you tell me where you were?! Mum, where were you?! Dont lie to me either because I already know. I just want the straight truth."

"This morning I was hunting. So was everyone else and I want to know everything about 'Olivia'."

"Im not telling you anything until you tell me everything!"

My mom gave me a stern look and then she saw the blue hair. Her expression changed and it kind of scared me. It went from fury to worry to extreme fury. She fell down next to me and drifted her hand over my hair.

"What did you do?! Why is there a freaking blue streak in your hair!!!!?"

I didn't answer her I just looked away. I couldn't look her in the eyes because instead of seeing that anger I saw the complete horror in her eyes. I looked at her and I saw a tear roll down her cheek. She got weak and collapsed.

She sounded so hurt when she talked, "Oh my god."

"Mum, what's wrong?"

I reached to help her up, but she backed away. It was almost as if I was the seven deadly sins put into one person. I got up quickly and told my mom to get out. I couldn't bear seeing her like this. I jumped into the shower and was enjoying the hot water until I had flashing images that I was being drowned.

Then I couldn't breath and no matter how hard I tried air wouldn't fill my lungs. When I focused on the images I noticed the girl wasn't me. It was Olivia! I then passed out from the shortage of air. Not seeing anything more...

Why am I always passing out now?!
