Unknown's p.o.v
The faster I run, the faster the sun seems to set. I stop and lean against a tree. I needed to find a place to stay for the night. I look around and spot what seems to be a tipped over mail box. I walk over and open the front of it. There were old newspapers still in it. The paper had yellowed and band holding to together was on the verge or breaking. I take it out and slide the band off.
Front page news: Mazir Household Catches Fire After Tragic Death of Madame Mazir
I frown and look at the cover picture. It looked to be a family portrait consisting of a mother, father, and what I was guessing were their three sons. The father and two of the boys were smiling while the mother and one boy stood there emotionless. I tear out the page and set the newspaper back in the mailbox. I stand up and put the page in my back pocket. I turn around and come face-to-face with a tall boy with white hair and red eyes. He must've been an albino. I let out a quick squeak and jump back a bit. I sigh and put my hand over my heart.
"I beg your pardon. I didn't mean to startle you, ma'am."
I shake my head in reply and drop my hand.
"It's quite alright. I didn't hear you behind me." I laugh and he smiles.
He smiles in a charming way and I stumble back. I look up to him, wanting to apologize but can't. I look him in the eyes and feel my eyelids grow heavier and heavier. I can't seem to look away. I collapse and he catches me. I eyes are now open, still looking into his. I can't move the rest of my body. He smiles down at me.
"That would've been a shame if I were to let you fall. Here, I'll take you to my house and help you to get better." He scoops me up into my arms and I try to protest but can't. He looks into my eyes once more and smiles. His teeth were bright white and pointed in the front.
He's a monster.
I try to shove him back but my arms feel numb and become useless. His eyes glow brightly and I feel myself fall into a sleepy sensation. That was the last thing I could remember before I wake up on a couch in what I was guessing was a foyer of a mansion.
"Where am I?"
I didn't expect anyone to answer but someone did.
"Why, the Mazir Mansion of course."
