"How come your not in heaven or hell?" The boy looked at me with pity, the same look and sentence my sister gave me.
"I do not know" I looked down.
"Have you ever felt sad about this?"
"Umm... I furrowed my eyebrows, not wanting to show him my tears that are threatening to fall.
"Well, have you at the very least had any emotions ever since the..." He scratched his neck, not wanting to bring up the incident.
"If you asked me that question ten years ago, I would have said pain and nothing else. And I still feel pain, but ever since you moved in, you made it feel a little less painful"

IT lets go of me, my head hits the ground again, no sound echos this time. IT's mouth movies, but my ears ring, so I can't hear IT. Everything is blurry and movies too much. I can't focus on anything. IT looks at me, IT's eyes are all gray. IT smirks and stands all of the way up, towering over me. I pull myself up and wobble away from IT on unsteady feet. I look back to see IT laughing, watching me walk away. I can't hear her terrible laughter, and I don't want... to... I fall over, feeling woozy. My head spins and I sway as I try to stand. I look back again, to see that the fog has covered my path, and I can only see a couple of inches away from my face. I blow out air and fall over. * * * * 13 year old Colten, takes a shortcut through the field next to his house on his way home. But why can't he reach his destination?Complete
