I jumped out of my sleep, sweat all over my face I couldn't breathe I thought to myself was this all a dream, it felt so real to me the cut, the tears....my mom and sister. I gasped and jumped from my bed and ran to my sister's room, I stopped right in front of her door and I placed my hand on the knob and slowly opened her door. "Okay she is still sleep." I said to myself. I closed her door and went downstairs to make breakfast. Hi we haven't met my name is Leah im 17 years old and I live in Philadelphia with my little sister named Julia who is 14 in a small cottage on Fort Mifflin. My sister and I we tend to move around alot but this small cottage we thought we could stay here it was perfect. My dad died when I was only 8 and when Julia was 6 and my mom died......from an accident not much to say I don't remember much on how she died but its just me and my sister and that's all I need now. But enough about me and my sister lets get back in my story. I head in the kitchen to make some breakfast, I think to myself about my dream. What did it all mean? It was so confusing. My sister finally made it downstairs looking horrible her hair was sticking up, her eyes were still closed, and she was walking like she had a hangover. "Someone must have slept good." I placed a plate of eggs in front of her as she sat down. She sat down and moved the plate out of her face and layed back down she didn't say anything. " Well...okay I guess your not hungry i'll just move this out of your way. " I move the plate away from her and sat down across of her we didn't say anything the whole time I was eating. As I finish my breakfast I get up and washed my plate, " Julia get dress your gonna be late for school." She turned her head and gave me a strange look , like a don't get on my nerves look. She stood up and walked upstairs. About 20 minutes later she came down all dressed for school. "You ready to go?" I asked, again she gave me another strange look and she just head out the door . I grabbed my house key and closed the door I ran to catch up to my sister I didn't bother to ask her whats wrong because I feel like I will just piss her off even more so I just kept my mouth shut. As we walked to school we had to pass through the park and it made me think of my mother when she would take me and my sister when we were little before she died I didn't want to cry because it would be stupid of me and I didn't want my sister looking. As I got out of my daydream I looked around and my sister just vanished I walked around the park calling her name and I couldn't find her. I almost got my phone to call 911 but then I turned to look in the woods that was a couple feet away from the park and i saw something walking on the trail I squint my eyes and it Julia. I dropped my book bag and I ran after her, I didn't know where she was going I've never been in these woulds I've heard rumors that there is something in the woods that traps you in there and you could never come out even if you tried you will be trapped in there until you die and I don't want that to happen to Julia. I ran as fast as I could and I reached my hand out and I tried grabbing my sister but it felt like I was getting farther and farther away from her but she was only walking not running. But I manage to grab her arm, "What are you doing are you nuts or something? You know were not suppose to go in the woods!" She looked at me with so much anger I looked in her eyes and they were blood red I stood there like I was a frozen in place. She leaned forward and opened her jaw and yelled, " STAY AWAY FROM ME!" She pushed me really hard and she ran in the woods. I flew and hit a tree I was unconscious for about 20-30 minutes. I woke up and I looked at the time and I knew I gonna be late for school, I got up and I had no other choice but to head to school I would go back to get my sister later. I got out of the woods and I grabbed my bag and I rushed to school, I managed to make the first bell. Hours went by and by 12:10 it was lunch time, I barely ate anything because I was still worried about my sister and why she has been acting so crazy. My two best friends came next me their names are Jodie and Layla, Jodie could tell something was bothering me because she wouldn't stop looking at me with a investigator man would look at his suspects, she got really close to my face, "Whats wrong something has to be wrong I can tell something is wrong with you so why not just tell me." I gave her a blank stare then i smiled, "Nothing is wrong I promise if something was wrong I know to come to you guys or gals for help." They both smiled and we started to eat. Another couple hours went by and before I knew it, the bell rang and it was time for 6th hour I sighed and I threw my tray away and I started to walk to my locker to get my books. As I walking to my locker i felt like someone was watching me, I felt really uncomfortable so I started to power walk a little, I turned my head and at the corner of my eye that someone was power walking like me. I tried to find someone that was in the hall still but I couldn't seek anyone, until I turned a corner and I saw my history teacher Mr. McPeak looking at the bulliton board. I ran over to him and I shook his arm," Mr. McPeak I need your help there's......." I turned around and no one was behind me, "...someone....chasing." "Are you okay Leah you seemed spooked?" Mr.McPeak said. I wiped my hair out of my face and I looked at Mr.McPeak with a smile, "Y....yeah im fine just a bit tired that's all im probably just seeing things.....sorry that i bothered you sir." "Its fine just know im here if you need me." I walked past Mr.McPeak and I went to the bathroom and I started to look in the mirror, " What is wrong with me? Am I really losing my mind?" I started to think about my sister and how worried I am about her, I don't want to lose her she's all I got left in my life. I turned on the water and I began to splash my face to wake me up, when I grabbed the paper towel once again I felt like I was being watched.
