I hate mornings, hate them with a passion. If I could murder anytime during the day it'd be the morning. I'm not even sure why I was dragged out here so fucking early. Dude the sun's not even awake yet. For fuck sake's if the sky ain't awake I don't wanna be.

"Trap." Some girl yelled out from the ocean. Lily you cunt monkey, I'mma fucking kill you

"What do you want now?" I whined, tossing my head back with my eyes scrunched shut.

"Come surfing with me." She called back as she positioned herself on her board. I shook my head and glared at her blurry figure while she bobbed against the waves.

"You dragged me all the way out here at like four something in the morning just too fucking surf." I growled, picking up one of our towels and throwing it as if it would actually hit her.

            Lily's my baby sister, well not really my baby sister she's only three hours younger than me. Lily and I are fraternal twins. Although, I don't really see how we are related. Who the fuck wants to wake up at this god awful hour and in the middle of winter no less!?  

"Trap!" I heard her yell out once more and I groaned.

            She's not gonna leave me alone until I go out there. Well might as well, the waves look good anyways. I stood from the icy cold sand, stripping out of my winter coat and sweat pants into a dark blue bikini top and black swim trunks. With a sigh I grabbed my black standard surfboard, smiling softly at the giant pink Hibiscus printed in the middle of it. Starting off in a small jog I ran towards where the dark colored water meets the white sandy beach.

            Shit shit shit! Why is the water so fucking cold?! I looked up to tell Lily she's crazy and that we need to leave, but my words caught in my throat. A huge black wall slowly crept towards Lily while she sat on her board unaware of the danger approaching from behind. I couldn't get a word out so I dove into the icy water with my board under my belly, smacking it against the water. I paddled as hard as I could to her. She was yelling something but I couldn't hear with the adrenaline pumping through my veins. I witnessed Lily tilt her head in confusion as to why I was frantically swimming towards her. She turned her head slowly, I was close enough to see her eyes widen in fear as the wave crashed down on her. I froze, automatically sitting up on my board. My eyes furiously shifted, searching the darkness for any sign that she was okay. I spotted her board floating on top of the water a few feet away from me and I dove off my board into the icy depths.

            As the frigid water eloped my body my eyes shot open, stinging from the salt. I began searching for her red flaming hair. It didn't take me long to spot her red hair, as I tried to swim towards her, my body feels as if the energy has been drained and my vision starts to blur. I noticed the world started to spin before darkness consumed my consciousness. The last thought was the names of me and my sister.

Venus Trapp and Lily Anne Carter.
