RECAP:
“Jacob” I said attempting to snap him out of the dark. “Come on, let's go to sleep. It’s been a long day,” I didn’t want to sleep and I won’t. Not now anyway. I figured if I could get Jacob to sleep without complaint, I could get some time to process what just happened.
“Do you really expect me to fall asleep now,” he protested. “With that creeper staring at us."
‘’ Um, yeah, I do actually…so’’ I gestured to the small pad wanting him to sleep so I could have some peace of mind. Pff. Yeah right, like I was gonna get any of that tonight. Anyway, after a small glaring contest, Jacob laid his pretty little head down. Good…..actually, not good. We were just abandoned, our house is gone, and a creepy brut is watching us…yay….(please note sarcasm)
Then, all of a sudden I realized it. I was the leader in this situation. Wow. That is a lot of pressure. Im beginning to feel like the characters I would read about in my books. You know the ones who would die of stress. Great. Just peachy.
^.^ >.< xD :{D O.o 0.0 T.T
So as you can imagine, I didn’t get any sleep last night. I guess I was too paranoid to. Any who, Jacob was up now but Shamus was still snoozing on the floor. At least one of us could get some sleep around here. Cracking my back I stood up. ‘’You know, you should stop doing that’’ Jacob commanded ‘’you’ll damage you back’’ I rolled my eyes as a response.
‘’Whatever’’ I scoffed knowing he was right. I obviously wasn’t in the mood to deal with him. He got the message. Trust me, he shut up after one look at my increasingly drooping eyes, matted hair, and clenched fist. It was gonna be a very long day. Ugh.
I quickly raked my fingers through my hair, straightened out my crinkled clothes and with that, Jacob, Shamus and I were out the tree house. ‘’So…where are we going again?’’ Jacob spoke up.
‘’Back to the house’’
‘’…why?’’
‘’Because, even though it's burnt, that house still should have some value in it. If im correct, then we should be able to get there soon, get some salvageable items, if there is anything left, and be back. Safe and sound in our new home.’’ I replied. Proud that I had thought of such a good plan. Huh. I guess I do make a pretty descent leader.
About five minutes later we were at the house, and my cruddy mood was gone only to be freshly replaced with my, slightly, happy mood. ‘’you know, I’m sorry this happened to us.’’ Muttered a sad looking Jacob…Well, consider my good mood gone.
‘’Jacob..” I groaned.’’ You know I hate that mushy stuff.'' i chill ran down my spine, then continuing i said ''It always makes me feel all weird inside. I don’t like it’’
‘’I know, I was just saying…sorry’’
‘’ I know but, just try to stay with me here. We cant be sad. We have to be strong. For Shamus’’ I sighed pointing to the confused dog.
He narrowed his eyes’’Shamus doesn’t even know whats going on’’ he crawled through a broken window and then, hearing him search through the rubble, i climbed in after him.
‘’ I know, but it was worth a try,’’ I breathed. He only nodded.
I got up, and marched over to the stairs that looked…crispy, as one could say. Carefully I creaked my way up the steps and made my way to my room.
I gasped at the sight.
My pretty salmon colored twin bed was now blackend and revolting. In the corner where my dresser used to sit was now a pile of rubble. The window with nice cream colored curtains was now destroyed. The white walls were now black and all my clothes and such were burnt to a crisp.
Oh, and one thing you needed to know about moi, is that im not a girly-girl. Not a tom-boy. Not a nerd. Geek. Brat. Slob. Snot. Or any of the above combined. What I am is a simple girl, with a sassy attitude. Im quite tough and barely ever cry. And I do care about how I look. That’s just what I am. You don’t like it? Well, then that’s just too bad for you.
Right. Back to my room. The strange thing was. The mirror was still perfectly clean and in tack. I stood in front of it and gazed at my slim figure. I had a nice fatigue. I’ll admit that much, but my hair was just a plain blonde. And my skin was fairly pale. I wasn’t very tall either, so sometimes I would look stubby in dresses. My eyes were only a simple green. Not some majestic green. More like a puke green. So, all in all, I’m just plain old boring.
I looked down at my size eight and a half feet and for once…felt pretty badly about how I looked. I looked back up, in only enough time to see a shadow coming out from behind my crumbled bed.
And that’s when I heard a loud BANG, and blacked out.
