Album Tapes

"This is a warning to all of you. We are here to look for those who had lost trust in us, betrayed us and fought us. Revenge is our mission. I don't think you'd like it," she says, her eyes boring into mine. "Good luck. I guess your one of them."

Gray Williams lived a normal life. She lived a normal teenager's life in St. Richmont High School. But when someone sends her a red box with Taylor Swift's RED album with the word 'seeing' written ontop of it and a number one on the corner, her life goes upside down. And it surely scarred her.

this story is mostly inspired by the novel Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher and the movie, Sinister. Thirteen Reasons Why has inspired the suicide parts and the memorial throughout tapes, but Sinister had given me the idea to knot these two plots into one by using the scene of the writer watching the tapes (which I also used but instead used its casing as a famous album case) and the time where he watched the kids kill their families (a gruesome one and I am sorry if I am spoiling it) by making the character watch terrifying video diaries of nine students who ceased to exist in the exact time, exact date and exact place.

Thanks to filtringrain_ for being a supportive Elsa in telling me to put this up and for the beautiful cover.

I would also like to give thanks to this_is_my_life_8788 for letting me use her pen name as the first girl in the story to ever introduce herself as the suicidical girl.

Also to my family for telling me that I am making a marvelous attempt (I hope this is a joke) on making a story.

And to all (and I know no one will anyways) who will read this story that I will slowly update since I am in the middle of a school year.

I may make some few of these chapters in a rush and maybe even only have short updates. I may also update very slowly because there is a ton of work here in my new school (and being a transferee is no easy task). There are times I am in a hiatus for unfortunately, I can have writer's block (a lot of times) and might not update for months. But eh, who cares, anyways?

Oh, and I also think negatively of what I write, I just put my ideas into words just so I can remember it and put up the story

c o p y r i g h t

Even though, the idea seems to come out of TRW (Thirteen Reasons Why) and Sinister, I don't like people plagiarizing my works. Because I worked hard for this to make a future for itself. Ideas don't fall off trees, you know (yes, I did just quote the fairy in the movie, Maleficent).

So, anyways, plagiarism is not allowed or I will slit your throat and make an album tape about how I killed every single person who tried to plagiarize my damn story, you get me? Of course, you do. I may sound violent, rude and pretty much a person who wants to overkill anybody, but I am a kind person. Just not the type who believes marshmallows can talk and clouds are makeshift beards.

Those that are not mine are the few ideas of suicide and tape recordings (originally: Thirteen Reasons Why) and the video tapes and the group of people who likes to kill (originally: Sinister except the fact that I used them as the people who killed themselves). The quote on the cover is not mine either, it is from Ursula K. Le Guin.

Enjoy my rudely introduced story. Happy reading!
