broken souls

“well arnt I just special.” I smile

“what’s the plan for today.”
He grins and sits up a bit. “what did you want to do?”

I put my bra on and grab one of Roman’s tshirts. “we go to the mill and look for clues.” I say pulling the shirt on.

“Are you sure. I mean. Are you up for it?” he sits up completely and lights a cigarette.

“Yes. I’m ready. And the full moon is coming soon we need to stop slacking.” I say with a grin.
We both finish getting dressed and head down stairs for breakfast.
Peter and Letha are sitting together and grin at us as we come in to the dinning room.

“Good morning.” Letha says grinning. I feel my face get hot.

“You wernt in your room last night when I went to check on you.” She smiles and winks at me. My face gets more hot. If that were even possible.
Roman smacks my ass and pulls my seat out for me and I laugh. We eat breakfast, avoiding the topic of the skating rink. When Letha ask what were doing today.

“Were going to go to the mill.” Roman states.

“Why?” she asks surprised.

“Were looking for clues.” Peter says scratching his beard.
She looks at me and raises an eyebrow. “you too?”

“hey I’m playing Nancy Drew. They’re helpless with out me.” I joke. She laughs.

“Well stay out of trouble, and I’ll see you guys later.” She says looking at her phone. “dads here to get me, baby appointment.” She kisses Peter and waves good bye to us.

“So what are we going to need for this?” I ask look at the boys. Roman puts his arm around the back of my chair and looks at Peter. “flashlights I think that’s it.”

   We finish breakfast and pile in Roman’s car and head to the mill. We pull up and its eerie. Giving me a bad vibe. I shiver and Roman looks at me.

“Cold?” he asks handing me a flashlight and taking my hand.

“No, just a bad feeling..” I say looking at the abandoned building. 

“Yeah I know what you mean.” Peter says, also staring at the mill. We walking in and theres broken cement pieces laying around, and water dripping from the ceiling to puddles on the floor, making a strange sounding echo through out the abandoned place.

“Let’s split up and we can meet up in a little bit, if we find anything give a yell?” I say.

“Are you crazy that’s how you get killed in horror movies.” Peter says.
“Come on it’ll be faster. I’ll go straight, Roman go left, Peter got right.” I say as I walk away not giving them a choice.

I hear Roman sigh and they start walking in there directions. I jump as a few rats run through my light. “God lord.” I whisper to myself. I walk through some rubble and slip. I fall on my butt and let out a small groan. I get up and look for my flashlight. I see the beam of my light shining on what was left of Lisa Wilerbys lower half.
The tendons were hanging off of the bones where her body had been ripped in half. There were rats and bugs crawling all around the body parts and the smell was horrendous.. I stand frozen in disbelief.

“roman.” I try to yell, but it comes out in just a whisper. I try again. This time I can at least hear myself.

“ROMAN!” “PETER!” I yell out. A few moments later I hear some shuffling and the boys saying something. I finally grab my flash light and they run up to me.

“What whats…” Roman’s cut off when he see what I’m shining my light on.

“Holly shit.” Peter says. I walk away tired of the sight and the smell.

“Hey wait up!” Roman calls. I hadnt noticed I was jogging away. I stop and put my hands on my knees.

“Why. Why did it leave her here….like that.” I ask closing my eyes. Trying not to puke.

“Who the fuck comes in here?” Roman says pacing.

“I don’t know, its your fucking mill.” Peter exclaims.

“Should we tell someone…” I ask.

“And say what?” Peter says. We here a woop woop. And look out the window. The cops.

“Shit!” we say.

“Its cool I’ll get rid of them!” Roman says.

“just do it okay!”

Roman walks out and starts talking to the cops. Next thing we knew he was being handcuffed and put in the back of the cop car.

“What the fuck!” I breath.
The cops drive away and we run out to the car. “No fucking keys. Great.” Peter says.

We both sigh and start walking.
“Why didn’t he do it?” I say putting my hood up my hair hanging out the front blowing in my face. It was starting to rain.

Peter runs a hand through his hair and sighs.

“He might still be pissed off about me and Letha… or maybe it was something else. I don’t know. Hes moody.” 

“Pissed about Letha?” I ask.

“I sort of hid it from him at first. And he thinks I betrayed him. But I thought we talked it out.” He looks at the ground.

“I wonder if it was cause of Andy last night…” I chew on my bottom lip.
He looks at me. “is that why he was so mad last night.”

I nod and tell him about what happened. “Holy shit. Maybe that’s why didn’t do the weird eye thing… hes punishing himself, for what almost happened?” I look ahead and squint against the rain.. “maybe.” We walk the rest of the way casually chatting, laughing and joking. We make it back to Peter’s house and we go inside.

“Where the hell have you been, hi dear.” Linda says with a smile to me after debating Peter.

“Roman got himself arrested at the mill. So we had to walk back. No cell service..” he says plopping down on the couch. We tell her about what we found.

“You should stop before you get in to deep. This isnt safe for you guys. A valgarf is like a disease… it will eventually take care of its self. By self destruction.” A voice says from the back. I look and see a tall brown haired girl walk out from the back, she was pretty.

“Destiny!” Peter says he gets up and gives her a hug.
I stand up and shake her hand

“Andrea, or ana, what ever" I say as I shrug. She grips my hand tight and stairs in my eyes intently. “You’ve known Death before you should have, but you’ve yet to know the extent of which it will effect you.”  She let’s go of my hand and smiles. “sorry about that when clearvoince hits I cant hold it back.” I stair at her and blink.
“Ugh… okay.” I shrug.

A/N: sorry it's taken so long in the process of moving, and helping family through there loss. And having a full time job. I had lost inspiration, but I'm starting to get it back.
