Prologue
Silent. That’s the way it was every night after the nightmares. I’m sure it was already around midnight and knowing how bad my insomnia was, I would probably be awake for hours to come
I got out of bed and tiptoed over to the window, trying not to wake my younger brother who was surely asleep by now.
Pulling up a chair, I sat down next to the window and looked out across the street and at the city lights of New York. Ever since that night I can never get to sleep, and even when I do, its mostly nightmares that replay over and over in my mind. I brought my hand up to my face, feeling along the scar across my eye and letting a few tears slip.
My family and I have never been really close, except for my younger brother, Sam. Me being 16 and him being 9, I’ve always felt the need to watch over him although he see’s it the other way around. Now that I’m older, more people tend to make fun of me and he’s always been there to hold my hand and comfort me and vise versa.
You see, I have this disorder, well, more of a condition than a disorder. Its called Heterochromia Iridis. A condition in which gives me two different colored eyes. In my case, one violet and the other blue. Thus making me the freak of not only my school, but also every other kid my age.
My thoughts were cut off when I heard “Ivy?”
I turned around to see Sam, dressed in over sized pajamas, staring at me with worry.
“Hmm?” I mumbled back.
“Why are you still up Ivy? Are you okay?” Staring at his big brown eyes that were filled with sadness, I knew that he had a nightmare too.
“Did you have a bad dream Sam? Go back to bed, you can sleep with me tonight.” I got up form the chair and picked up his blanket off the floor next to his feet and walked over to my bed.
Right when I lay down there was a startling loud CRASH, coming from the roof of our house. I looked over to make sure Sam was all right. He looked slightly alarmed but didn't look hurt. He looked around before asking, “What was that?” in which I simply shrugged.
We both ran over to the window, curious to see if we could find what had made all the ruckus and immediately spotting a dark shadow standing (or rather floating since we’re on the third floor) in front of our window. All I could make out was glowing green eyes surrounded by darkness, and I knew that even if this thing was good in any sort of way, its intentions on being here certainly were not. As soon as its glowing eyes landed on me, the glass shattered and it raced forward to grab my hand and yank.
Immediately, I started screaming and thrashing, but it kept pulling with all its might. Somehow it pulled me out of the window, my knees dragging across the shattered glass that had broke and was scattered across the floor, and out into midair where we were both floating. I knew there would be no way of getting away unless the shadow dropped me, which I didn't want to happen since we were 3 stories high at the moment, so I held on for dear life.
Yet my brother, being brave yet foolish, grabbed my foot in order to somehow pull me back in and ended up dangling from my feet in midair. All I remember after that is the shadow bursting with speed up to the heavens, and I blacked out…

AUTHORS NOTE:
So, this is my first story and me knowing how I am, I probably won't update a lot because 1- whenever i write i need to be like really insprired and in a creative mood or I just won't write at all. 2- I'm lazier than the guy who drew the japanese flag, and there is a small chance that after this I may never update it again. 3- I dont have a number three so #3 is pizza.
Anyways I hope like my story :) Please comment, vote, like, subscribe, tweet, ummm hug, and everything else :D And if there's anything I made a mistake on please correct me since I'm still a beginner at writting.
