Path of Rose's

Rose of death - Rachel

  We were just thirteen, we didn't mean for any of this to happen. It just, fell out like this. None of it was my fault, it was all jocleyn's fault.
 
  We were in a clear patch of land in the forest. Jocleyn and I were chasing Rose, then Jocleyn picked up some rocks and started to throw them at rose. We were chasing Rose to a certain pach of land with rocks and stones in a circle.
Once we got close enough jocleyn threw the last and final rock at Rose's head. When it hit her, she fell to her knees and then onto her stomach, eyes wide open. We ran to Rose, and started to drag her to the middle of the circle. Cole, Rose's boyfriend at the time, brought a container full of gasoline. I bent over to close Rose's  dark hazelnut eyes, and moved her deep thick black hair from her face. I touch her smooth soft skin for the last time and step back, as Jocleyn poured the gasoline over Rose's pale cold body. When she's finished jocleyn  pulled a mach out of her jacket and lit the tiny stick of wood, and dropped it right on Rose. I step back and watch the raging fire flame up, higher and higher, lighting up the sky and the forest. Animals run away from the fire, but Jocleyn and I just stood there, watching our best friend burn.
I remember saying, "well she did always say that she wanted to shine." Once I said that Jocleyn and I bursted out with laughter. As we laughed I remember we could hear sirens growing louder and louder as they were comeing closer. We turn to each other and just stood there. The cops came through the bushes and the fire men dragged their large hose to the middle of the forest. The fire men watered down the fire as the cops investagated us separately. They ask what we were doing.
When the fire men finished with the fire they got the police and talked and checked out the area where Rose had died. When they where done talking, the police took samples of the ash, and blood that was still fresh and not completely burned. They walked over to Jocleyn who was just right next to me on my left. They took a sample of blood that was on her shirt and sent us home. They told us that we had to go to court and we had some questions to awnser.
  Cole being stupid left the half used gasoline bottle that we used on Rose behind a lawnmower, instead of hiding or getting rid of it.
  It's been five years since we were calmed to be monsters and life hasn't been the best. My dad left my mom and I and my mom hasn't left the house in years. Every where she went people were so rude to her. Everyone knows that she's the mother of one of the worst monsters to live in Clovevill. She's finally going out to London to see our aunt who is currently on her death bed. This will be the first time she is out of the house, since she only went out of the house to collect news papers and magazines.
  "She left two days ago and will be gone for 4 months." I yell to Katelyn who is behind piles and piles of magazines that we are cleaning out. "Eww!" I hear Katelyn make fake puking noises and we both start laughing. I close up a trash bag that is full to the top with junk my mom piled up. Katelyn walks into a clearing in the living room and says, "what is this smell? Did you kill somone in here?" She laughs and then quickly stops and says, "sorry." I'm now the one laughing and tell her, "It's fine." We laugh and I walk out side to throw the bag of trash over into the big trash can in my drive way.
  I like Katelyn because she moved here one year ago. She had no idea about the murder when she became our nahbor. She knows now but she's fine with it. She knows I wouldn't do anything to harm her and that was the old me. She's a little chubby but not by a lot. She's beautiful, she has wonderful long blond hair and dark green eyes. She has a few freckles on her noes and it looks like she was made with no flaws. She has smooth light skin and she's wearing a cute Jean skirt and tight hot pink shirt with spaghetti straps. To finish the look she has a blue Jean jaket.
  As I walk back into the living room Katelyn walks twords me and says,"I think theirs a old pizza box under the couch. I'm getting light headed and it's getting dark i think I'm going to go, okay?"  I laugh and say," Ok, ill see yah later then." We hug and I move so she can get past me. I walk into the living room and admire all the work we got done. We opened all the windows to get fresh air in the house, I can actually see the carpet on the floor and the piles went down some more too. I was starting to wonder if we even had a floor or if it was just a bottomless pit that was full with magazines. As I look around on the floor I see a familiar book. I walk over to see what it was and I picked it up. It was the book that Jocleyn, Rose, and I had been working on. The cover still looks the same, just a few crumbs of somthing I don't want to know are stuck to it. I open the book and look through the pages, and I relize that you can tell the difference between all of our hand writing. I put it on the kichen counter and I go to the couch in the living room. I bend down onto my hands and knees and I stick my hand under the couch to find the pizza box Katelyn told me that was under here. I move my hand around underneath the couch and I get a shiver up my spine when I touch somthing squishy and what I think is mold. I grab it and pull it out, I put it in a trash bag and when I turn around I see a rose on my couch that was not there befor. I look around the room and I see a shadowy figure in the hall heading out the front door. I start to run after it, tripping over trash bags and news papers. When I reach the end of the hall and I'm outside the house I look around but I don't see anyone. I walk back inside and I pick up the rose. It has a letter attached to the stem of it. I read it and gasp as I drop it.
