Beyond ~ The Dark Ages

2 ~ Angry

"What the hell is going on?!" I wisper to myself. I mean yesterday it was Saturday, a--a--and now it's freaking Monday?! What kind of trick is the universe tryna play here.

Ok ok ok. Maybe my alarm clock is wrong. Yeah. Where's my phone?

Reaching beyond my alarm clock, I grab my phone and wisper a silent prayer that the damn alarm clock is wrong.......it's not wrong. I'm now sitting at the edge of my bed.

Wait. What happened yesterday? Okayyyyy yeah wierd stuff did happen before I went to bed....was it real? I move stealthily towards my door. Looking through the pin hole, no sign of human life. Ok coast clear. I'm bitting my well manicured nails; which I never do. The anticipation is too much. I unlock and open the door slightly peeking through......it's still there; all the wierd chaos is still out there. Woah. Immediately I close the door, I'm sure I hear footsteps, but that's it; just a few steps. I'm known for my extemely excellent hearing, so I'm sure I heard footsteps. But that little? That's wierd. Ha! Wierd.....surely that's nothing compared to what's happened in the last what? 24-plus hours. I'm sooo confused.

I should be getting ready for school, but I still can't believe all this. Ok calm yourself. I quickly head into the shower, take a quick one, and dress up. By the time I'm ready, I'm wearing my dark blue fitted jean trouser and an all black long sleeve button down shirt. My white nike trainers are on with a black pair of socks underneath. I've loosend my very tangled locks of hair into what I'd like to call an afro. Mini tear drop earings....check. I search for my wrist watch, phone, and mini back pack.....I find them, and I'm ready to go. Not so sure I wanna step out of this room though. So to stall, I pick up a white diamond encrusted necklace from the front of my very grand mirror....mhmnn grand. This necklace was a gift from my dad on my 15th birthday. He never does spare a dime when it comes to me. Remembering that I have to go outside, I quickly put on my necklace.

Phone in hand, I'm ready to face the storm. Opening the door, I don't see pieces of glass. What?! Completely steping out, I'm utterly speechless.

But they where there. They were all just here a few minutes ago. I was in the bathroom for less than 6 minutes. Surely that's not enough time for all that mess to be cleaned up. What on earth is happening? I walk to the kitchen, looking for Mason; if it really is Monday then he would be up and about.

He's here. Mason is in the kitchen. My God.

"Morning sis!" He's his usual preppy self; he's always like this when he's leaving for school. Wait that means he didn't see the mess. Or was he the one who cleaned it?....nah Mason would never clean without being told to. Maybe mum did it, she does like to clean...ugh her.

"Morning Mason" I try my best to look carefree.

"Here, I made you a toast for breakfast" I take it. Mhmnn smells goooood. Taking a bite, I just need to make sure.

"Thanks. Hey, did you see anything unusual this morning? Say, broken things or something?" He looks puzzled.

"Uhhh no? Why would things be broken this morning?"

"Nothing" hmmm "what about mum, have you seen her this morning?"

"Well I heard a few footsteps from my room this morning, but that was all. I checked the whole house. She must have gone out" he shrugs non-chanantly "hey, let's get going. We're gonna be late" I'm a little worried now. Where on earth did she go? And why didn't she tell us....at least tell Mason.

"Sure"

"Hey!" Mum? "Hey darlings, you're gonna leave for school without seeing your old woman?" Who's she kidding? She doesn't look a day older than 30. Wait how's she here? Mason looks like he's seen a ghost.
