Hit Start (Haunted)

Chapter 8

The Devil Within

The song is The Devil Within and it is nightcored. It was what gave me the idea for this chapter.

Why does it happen? I didn't want to be here. Maybe if they were all gone. I wouldn't have to be here anymore.

The sceane was I was standing in the middle of a bunch of people. They were eatier dead or screaming like I had done something wrong. I held a knife in my head.

I then suddenly woke up. Sweat was rolling down my face. I noticed that I was panting as well. Someone was sitting at my bedside. I look over to see who it is. He had shoulder launth black hair and black eyes. He looked almost like me. He had a ripped white shirt and ripped black pants. He had huge black Angel wings attached to his back. He was just staring at me. He wasn't moving at all.

"Who are you?" I ask him. He just smiles.

"I'm you." He says.

"You can't be me. I'm me." I say. He still has a smile on his face. On his face, he had alot of small scars that I didn't notice entill now. But only one popped out more then the others. It was a long one that went across his eye.

"Oh but I AM you. I'm just insane." He says imphasising the am. He then laughs out of no where.

"What have you done?" I ask, still not getting this.

"You know Karma?" He ask. I nodded my head, "I've killed him. Also Sarcasm." He says. My jaw dropped to the floor.

"Why?" I say in a low voice.

"Because I don't like them." He said shrugging. I was so scard, I couldn't say anything. I was afrid that this was inside of me. That this could be me. "Why don't you kill them here too? Then we can become the same." He says.

"No! I won't!" I scream, placing my face into my hands. I heard the door open. When I looked up, he was gone and Karma was standing at the door.

"What's wrong? I could hear you screaming from my room." Karma asked.

'Remember what I said. There is a knife in your bedside table. It's the same one that I killed Karma in my relm with.' A voice in my head says.

"I'm fine." I say to Karma, ignoring the voice.

"Ok then. I leave. But it is 8:00. Just so you know." Karma says, leaving. I sigh. After a few minutes of just sitting there, I dicided to get up and go downstairs. I get up and change into a Ib shirt and black skinny jeans. Then I sigh and start downstairs. For the rest of the morning, when ever I was near something that could be used as a weapon I heard the voice again.

But as the day went on I kept ignoring the voice. But eventualy it took over me.

'Hey look. A knife. And also Karma is sitting right there. You could easily kill him right now." The voice said. Getting tired of it, I listened. I picked up the knife. Karma was facing away from me so he didn't know that I had picked up the knife.

I walk up behind him. He said, "So did you know tha-" But before he can finish I stab him in the back. I didn't hit any vital organs but he was bleeding badly. Once I realised what I had done, I walked back, shocked.

Before anyone could come in, I ran off to my room. It was a while before I heard anything. There was a knock. Going over to the door, I opened it. There in the doorway was Sarcasm. I was shocked but let her in anyway.

"So did you hear about Karma?" She asked me walking over and sitting on my bed.

I was always a good lier so I said, "No. What happened?" I sounded shocked. Sarcasm didn't notice that I was lieing but no one could tell when I was.

"He was stabbed." She said sadly.

"Oh my goodness. By who?" I said, still sounding shocked.

"No one knows. But he's in the hospital." She said.

"Oh ok. But can't you just ask him who it was?" I ask.

"We tried but he won't tell us." I was shocked. I would have expected that he told on me as soon as he could.

"Well I'll go vist him soon." I say. She nods and then leaves. The moment she leaves I go to find the hospital and talk to him. It takes me about a half an hour untill I find it. Once I get there, I look for him. I find him and he's sitting there, very pathticly. He looked surprised that I was here.

"Hey why are you here?" He says shocked.

"Well I wanted to ask you something." I said.

"What was it?" He asked.

"Well, why didn't you rat me out?" I ask. He just stared at me for a little before he caught on to what I was saying.

"Well, we may not like each other but I was being nice. I could always tell them that it was you." He said waving his hands at him.

"No, no. I'm fine. Thank you. For not telling on me of course." I said.

"Well your welcome." He said.

"But I should get going." I said. He waved good-bye to me and I walked out the door.

Well that's the end of this chapter. Please vote and yeah.
