Prologue

(Present Day)

The sirens were so loud I could hardly hear myself think, someone was beating down the door yelling Police! Maybe the neighbors had heard the screams after all. My Heart Started race as I stared at the knife I clutched in my hands, both now stained with blood, and I waited for the pain the regret........ Something anything to remind me I was still human, but it never really came.

I glanced at Collin lying limp in a pool of his own blood........ Nothing my eyes shifted to my stepfather David who laid unconscious still nothing. My heart fluttered a little at the sight of Kyle in tears but besides that I was gone.

The police finally managed to break down the door and were rushing in. an officer spotting the knife in my hand yelled "freeze!" and I had no problem obeying that command because I was already frozen somehow unable to move as the past fifteen minutes of my life flashed before my eyes. This is all my fault was all I could keep thing in my head over and over. I hardly registered the words of the officer as he removed the knife from my grip and placed me in hand cuffs. One of his questions seemed to get through, "what happened?" and then in a low voice so unlike my own I answered "I did this I wanted it to happen."

It now seemed as if I was moving in some form of trance as the officer pushed me forward and pushed the door. The light from the cop car created a pattern of blue and red over the lawns the people who gathered to watch. I said nothing and felt nothing either I just went along with it. Slowly he placed me in the back of the car, checking to see if the door was secure he walked towards the driver's seat without saying a word started the car and pulled out of my drive way. I watched as the crowd grew smaller and smaller in the distance while the car drove away, leaving them to their own speculation. It didn't matter they in their perfect untouchable worlds would never understand the reasons behind this night.

As the car moved further down the road I tried again.......... But still nothing. Was this what I had become? I hated that they turned me into this monster but try as I may I was hollow. I tried constantly to recall the last three year of my life, what happened? Where did I go wrong? What was it that changed me? And suddenly it was all too clear and somehow I knew at the back of my mind that it would always end like this.

Just sucks I hadn't heeded the signs........
