Strange Encounters Vol. 1

Errand boy

Hawk stood in front of the door with a look of surprise on his face after Kimmy shut the door abruptly. Oh...now I'm her errand boy, Hawk thought as he walk to the elevator with a bag of clothes.

First I get assaulted by others just to get a phone number and now I'm doing her laundry, Hawk thought as he left the building and headed towards E Z Clean to wash the things in the bag.

The place was several blocks away, it was a red brick building with a picture window and a swinging glass door. Against the wall were lines of dryers and in the middle were two lines of washers. Hawk found an open washer and begin to load it with the clothes.

After washing the clothes, Hawk put them in a dryer and returned to his seat to wait for them to dry. After the clothes had dried, Hawk pulled them out and began to fold them. They were basically sheets with a few other things added in. Oh no not again, Hawk thought as he felt it stir. He looked around to make sure no one was looking at him at the moment.

Hawk quickly finished folding the clothes replaced them in the bag and quickly left the place. He held the bag in front of him has he walked so no one could see what had happened to him. It wasn't long before he had made it back and knocked on Kimmy's door.

The door opened halfway and Kimmy's head appeared around the corner. "Thank you for the help I wasn't feeling good and didn't feel like going anywhere." Kimmy said as she took the bag from Hawk.

"It's okay, are you going to be all right?" Hawk asked with a concerned look on his face.

"Yeah, I'll see you at school tomorrow." Kimmy said has she closed the door. Hawk let out a sigh, left the building and headed for home. That was a bit strange, hope she is okay and it isn't something bad. Didn't look all that good, but tomorrow I'll see if she looks better than today, Hawk thought as he arrived at his apartment and stepped inside.

Hawk took the elevator up to his floor, unlocked the door and stepped inside, closing the door behind him. He dropped his bag by the couch and made his way to the kitchen. He made himself a couple of ham sand- wiches, grabbed some chips and a soda. Hawk sat at the table and ate his dinner while thinking over what had happen- ed.

When Hawk finished, he cleaned the dishes and headed to his bedroom. He picked out some clothes and walked down the hall. He stepped into the bathroom turned on the water and got un- dressed. Stepping inside the shower, Hawk bathed and when he was through he dried off. Tossing his other clothes in the hamper, he return- ed to his bedroom and lay down on his bed.

Hawk lay there looking at the ceiling, wondering what had caused her to get sick. It wasn't long before Hawks eyes got heavy and he drifted off to sleep. Hawk had a smile on his face, as he walked to Kimmy's apartment and was glad he would be able to see her.

When he arrived he opened the door and stepped inside. It was a rather small apartment with tan walls and white trim. It had a wooden floor and only one other room, which turn out to be the bathroom. A counter, stove and refrigerator set against one wall. A sliding glass door open to a balcony on the right wall.

Kimmy's bed sat against the right wall next to the sliding glass door. There was a small night table at the foot of the bed and a closet where she kept her clothes. Hawk's eyes got wide and his mouth dropped open at the sight he saw.

Kimmy was on her bed, on her hands and knees and Peters stood behind her with his finger extended. "Bend over and let me take your temperature." Peter said with a grin on his face.

"Aaaaah!!!" Hawk screamed as his eyes snapped open and he set up in his bed, his heart pounding in his chest like a drum. That was a horrible dream, Hawk thought as he sat on the edge of his bed.

It was early morning and Hawk didn't know what else to do, so he headed for the kitchen. He grabbed some cereal and sat down to eat, while he thought over the night- mare he had. After cleaning the dishes, Hawk turned on the TV and sat down to watch something.

At 6:00 a.m. Hawk grabbed his backpack and headed for school. The walk there was rather long as the image of his nightmare kept playing in his head. Once again Hawk fought his way through the hallway and soon made it to his classroom.

Hawk was relieved, as he stepped into the room and saw Kimmy sitting at her desk. Kimmy smiled as he walked to his desk and sat down next to her. "Glad to see you're feel- ing better." Hawk said with a smile. The rest of the day was normal and nothing happened out of the ordinary.

When the last bell rang, Hawk packed up his things and headed to the SNC. Kimmy had to stop by the office, so Hawk went by himself to the SNC. Meanwhile at the SNC Lisa was lying on the couch reading a comic book.

Tommy was the first to arrive and stepped inside the SNC. "Woo, what is that awful smell?" Tommy asked as his face scrunched up like a prune. At that moment a rather heavy book flew across the room and hit him in the head. Tommy fell to the ground in a heap and the room became quiet again.

Peter was the next to step into the SNC and his face scrunched up as well. "Crap what is that horrible smell?" Peter asked waving his hand in front of his face. Once again a book flew across the room and hit Peter in the head. He crumpled to the ground on top of Tommy.

Kevin was the next too arrive and he gaged as he stepped inside. "What a awful smell." Kevin said as he tried to get fresh air in his lungs. Just then a book hit him and he fell on top of the other guys.

Hawk stepped into the SNC and he felt like he would spew. "What is that horrible smell?" Hawk asked in disgust, a book hit him and he crumpled to the ground on top of the other motionless bodies on the floor.

Kimmy finally stepped into the SNC, she stopped as she noticed the pile of bodies and looked around. When she saw Lisa laying on the couch reading, her brow arched. "What's with the dead bodies?" Kimmy asked with a curious look on her face.

"They say Lisa stinks." Lisa said as she continu- ed to read her comic book.

"What are you doing here?" Kimmy asked and she looked down at the boys.

"Lisa had nothing to do, so Lisa thought she would come here and read." Lisa said without looking up. At that moment groans escaped from the boys and they untangled themselves and stood up.

"What's the big idea!" Kevin said through clinched teeth.

"You threw books at us!" Peter ground at Lisa angrily.

"Hu why are you so mean?" Tommy asked with a raised brow.

Lisa stopped reading, slowly stood up and glared at the boys. "Mean
...you say Lisa stinks that's mean!" Lisa yelled with her hands on her hips.

"I suggest using a perfume that doesn't smell like crap!" Peter yelled back.

"Okay that's enough, let's just get the meeting started." Hawk said as they all sat down at the table.

"Ok, I made copies of some stuff I pulled off the internet, so pass them around and take a look at them." Peter said as she started to pass the copies around. Lisa was a bit curious and stopped her reading sitting up to see what Peter was talking about.

"These are photos of UFOs and ghost sightings that I found so we can discuss them." Peter said with a smile. A frown appeared on Peter's face and he turned to look at Lisa as he heard her snicker. "What are you laughing about?" Peter asked angrily through gritted teeth.

"You say you're Super- natural investigators and all you do is sit around and discuss pictures of sightings." Lisa said as he continued to laugh at them.

"What are you even doing here, you're not part of this club!" Peter yelled at her.

"Shut up freak, Lisa goes where she wants to!" Lisa yelled back.

"All right everyone calm down " Hawk said has he tried to quiet the room down.

"Well Lisa's got a point." Kimmy sand as she looked at the boys. "When I joined you said you were adventurous boys, but we have never gone anywhere yet." Kimmy said as she folded her arms.
