Chapter two

_______________

I ran out of the car as fast as i could. I had to get away, escape to my happy place.I ran into the house, tripping over the stairs as i ran up them.

"what's wrong?" Artemis, my mother, and yes my grandparents decided to name her after the daughter of Zeus and Leto, we're greek and they just love the myths. My mother was Beautiful, but it was that,that made people think she was nice, don't get me wrong, i love my mother, but they're are times when she just...lets just leave it at the fact that we have our "Mother Daughter" moments rarely.

"Um...i don't feel good, i was gonna lay down, and i'll eat dinner when it's ready"

"Okay, but you have to eat dinner"

"Okay." I ran upstairs and shut my door, I put my backpack in it's usual spot, the couch in my room. i got my ipod, cellphone and keys. i opened the window and climbed out onto the tree, with my battles with gravity, im shocked that im even able to climb on the tree by my window.

I walked to the woods, yep, the forest isnt that far from where we live. Where do we live? The lovely small town named Night Brooke,which is in Maine. I love the name, but god,do I miss my family. I went from Arizona to Maine, I love both for different reasons. I wish i could just transfer whenever i wanted. i sit on the bench that Aly,December,Brandon,Adrianna,Maera,Marie and Zach claimed ours. Yes they're my older friends. I wish they were here, but sadly they're at their houses, which my mother gets paranoid about, claiming and i qoute "Why don't you have friends your own age, i doubt 15 and 17 year olds want to be your friend" I know better,She doesn't know how we are, all of us are practically family. I am beyond tired and stressed out from the news Aly just gave me.

So by impulse, I put my ear buds on and press shuffle on my ipod, i lay on the bench and fall asleep, being consumed by The words of But It's Better If You Do from the beyond awesome and incredibly hot group Panic At The Disco.

My dream starts with screaming,gunshots and blood.

Im running through the woods,in a dress that looked like it was in the 1800's.

My hair is black,My skin is lighter than usualand my dress is ripped and my mouth is dripping with blood. Men are chasing me and im running, i can hear my heart pounding in my ears.

I trip (as usual) and then i dont see the men chasing me, instead a young man kills them,simply by twisting their neck. He turns around and i see myself find recognition.

"Lexi...."

"Get away from me...." I quickly get back on my feet. Wait, Lexi? what the hell?

"Just listen to me,Okay?"

"Derek, Im done listening!"

"Do you want to die?"

my eyes go black and im shocked at what i do, i grab him by the neck and hold him against the tree.

"Im already dead! Remember? You're the one who killed me!"

The young man grabs me by the shoulders and pins me to the Tree as quickly as i did to him.

"I didn't kill you, I had Kelsey turn you into what you are so i could be with you."

I woke up from the dream when i heard a scream. It was beyond ear piercing and terrifying. I took my earbuds off and looked around. It's not like i would run away, i've always had a nat for wanting to be scared the hell out of. Then i heard footsteps they kept getting closer, but i just there Staring off into the Dark woods. i glanced at my watch as if nothing had even happened, It was 6:30,Crap.
