Blood Promise

Nia

I ran through the woods outside of the Drake compound. Surrounded in complete darkness. "Nia" a voice called out

"Who's there?!" I holared.

"Nia" it whispered in return.

"Who's there!" I screamed.

"Come to me." It kept whispering.

"Stop! Who are you! What do you want!"

"Come to me and the Drakes don't have to get hurt. This can all be a fair friendly game if you chose to play along. If not I'll have no other choice. And the first to go will be your precious little Marcus." Images of Marcus in pain flashed in my brain. I couldn't take it any longer.

"OKAY! I'll go with you just please leave the Drakes alone! Please!"

"Oh I will... for now."

"No!!"

"NOOO!!!" I sat up screaming. At that time Marcus came running unto my room.

"Nia! Is everything okay? What's wrong?" Worry etched onto his face..

I squeezed my eyes shut knowing it was all a dream but just making sure. Then I shook my head.

"Just a bad dream." I wanted to cry. I had no idea what I just gave myself up for or whom I did. But this may be the very last night I ever saw Marcus again... I don't want to lose him. I lost control and began to cry. He came up next to me and hugged me while rubbing my back soothingly. I just held onto him for as long as I could and didn't let go. If this was the last I was gonna see Marcus I was gonna make the best of it.

The rest of the night went pretty much like this... me spending as much time with each of the different Drake siblings as I could, including Lucy, and not telling them why and acting like it was all okay. But when that sun began to rise, I knew I'd not even get the chance to say goodbye. I trudged to my bed, inside knowing that I made a mistake agreeing to that thing that I'd go with it. But I couldn't let him do anything to Marcus... I just.... I just couldn't. I got changed, crawled into bed and went to sleep, scared of what might I wake up to in the morning.

When I woke up I was in a dark, cold, damp room, tied down to some sort of... table? Maybe? And then I heard it. The whisper for the dream.

"So she's finally awake." And as soon as he spoke I recognized it... Montmartre.
I had no idea what he was gonna do with me but no matter what it was... there was no way it was gonna be good.
