ch. 10

ive been living here with kevin for almost a month and no one has come to find me.  i switched to kevins high school and have been doing really good with all my classes. my speech has tremendously improved too.  everything seems perfect but i have a feeling it wont last much longer. 

i lay in my bed doing homework, blasting hell above by pierce the veil.

knock knock

"enterance granted" i giggled.

"hey dinner time" kevin said walking into my room.

"whats we having?"

"we are having... drum roll please? " he replied.

i began to tap my text books with my hands.

"BACON PIZZAHHHHH"

"OMGGGG!!!!  MY FAVORITE!!! " I shouted back in response. 

"lets go!" i replied running out my bed room door and down the stairs with bacon on my mind and kevin at my heels. 

i rounded the corner to the kitchen and stopped dead in my tracks.  there on the ground were my adopted parents covered in blood and a note on the counter top. 

i ran to mrs. tina and grabbed her wrist and felt a small pulse. i turned and checked kevins dad and his pulse was just as weak. 

kevin stood at the door in shock.  his body was ridged and on edge. 

"call 9-1-1!" i screamed at him.

he didnt move. even his gaze remained on his parents bloody bodies.

"kevin theyre alive but we need help! "

he still didnt budge.  i stood and walked past him grabbing the house phone. 

"911 whats your emergency.?"

"yes our parents are bloody...  like someone tried to kill them.  theyre unconscious and their pulse is getting really weak. "

"ok miss whats your adress? "

"145 shellbrook drive "

"ok help is comming would you like me to stay on the line while you wait? "

"no im fine thank you. "

i hung up and made my way to the still frozen kevin.

i looked into his eyes and whispered sorry.  then i raised my hand and slapped him back to life. 

"ow! " he yelped. 

"i need your help. go unlock the door and then come help we with them. "

he nodded and headed off while i ran to the counter and grabbed the note. 

it was folded nicely and had my name on it.  i opened it and immediately began to cry. 

dear rayne, 

so you think your safe now...  well you arent...  deither come home or next time no one will survive. 

-you know who

i dropped the note as kevin re entered the room. i looked at him with tear filled eyes. 

"rayne? "

and with that i was out.  nothing but a heap of unconsciousness on the floor.
