I slowly closed my eyes and darkness swallowed me...
BANG
"Who is their!" I shouted as I fist my hands in front of me ready to attack whoever it was. But no one. Silent
I furrowed and slowly got up from my bed, slipping on the slippers, I scanned the room but their was no-one in the room except me.
My family members were on my uncle house because of a gathering. I couldn't go as I had school to attend. So in the whole house I was the only one. Then what was the bang? I asked myself. Suddenly a chill ran down my spine as I shivered.
I grabbed the baseball bat of my brother and slowly walked towards the door. Clutching onto the door knob, I slowly twisted it.
CLICK
I hurriedly light up the touch that I grabbed with the bat. I flashed it in the hallway way but no-one. Taking light steps I passed down the hallway to the end but found no one. Is it the wind? But it's not windy out side.
Then someone flashed by my side eye and ran towards the balcony. I hurriedly ran to the balcony. I peeped from the small window but saw nothing but darkness. Wasn't it 5 when I slept? Why is it so dark outside?
I opened the balcony door. My eyes widened from what I saw.
Mom! Grandma! Brother!
Weren't they in uncle house when I called? What are they doing here? Didn't they say they will be coming tomorrow?
I gasped when I realized that the sky was still blue. Wasn't it night?
"Mom weren't you going to come tomorrow?" I asked as I neared her. But she didn't look at me but looked past me. Terrified?
I looked at my brother and grandma and they looked terrified too?
I furrowed and walked two to three steps forward and turned back.
My body tensed, trembled and I was scared!
A giant being was their standing mightily looking directly at my family with intense eyes.
What is that a griffin? a vulture and eagle? or? What is that thing?
Vulture beak but eagle head shape. Snakes eyes but upper body was like a human but lower was of a giant eagle?
What was that?
"Ahh!" Someone screamed.MOM!
I snapped my head towards my mom but stumbled back. I froze, tears start to form as I looked up. Dad!
I turned back and the beast was gone. I looked up to find it clutching my dad in his feet as he flew. I looked down again as I heared grandma call my name.
"Grandma!"
She was being wrapped around by a giant snake! My grandma tried to wiggle out but getting terrified instead of the snake angry hissing. The snake opened his mouth wide ready to swallow grandma.
"No!" I ran towards them but stumbled at the ground before even touching.
I hissed in pain as my knees bruised from the fall. I lift my head and looked at my surroundings. I was in my room!
Was it a dream?
Sound of water running came from the kitchen. I ran to the kitchen to find my brother filling a glass. I sighed in relief. So it was a dream, I chuckled dryly.
I could feel my heartbeat racing from the dream. I looked at my brother and smiled.
"Brother why are you here alone where is mom and dad?" I asked as I neared him.
But he didn't answer. Well that's something new. My brother never was silent when I called him he would at least hum.
"Brother" I called him.
"Baby?" I called him again but no answer.
I sighed and sat in one of the dining chair. That's when my brother stopped filling the glass which seemed to never be full. He kept the glass on the counter with a sound. The sound was as if the glass was empty. Wasn't he filling? Why does it sounds empty? I didn't even saw him drinking.
I looked at my brother opening my mouth ready to question but failed. It's as if the words stuck on my throat. I stumbled back making me fall from the chair to the ground.
"Who are you you are not my brother!?" I yelled at him.
"I am your brother. Sister." He said in a deep voice making me shiver.
"No you aren't!"
My brother trimmed his hair two days ago and my brother never wore that cloth he thought it didn't suit him.
"Lift your face" I ordered as I stood up from the ground. Who was this boy how did he get in and why is he wearing my brothers clothes?
He slowly lifts his face and my heart stopped beating. The surrounding changed completely black but dim light was their. I stumbled back, my legs trembled. I tried to run but it was as if I was stuck on the ground.
Silver eyes looking at me terrifying me at my core. His face filled with red bloody scares and his lips carried a creepy smile.
He started to near me and my breathing became heavy and short. My mind was telling me run but my body was not in my control at all. It was as if I had gone numb.
Now the boy was in front of me with his creepy smile still on him. He lift his hand and wrapped it around my neck and pressed on it. Cutting my breath. I tried to free myself but in no vain.
I gasped for air, my vision started to blurry and my hands started to limb. And darkness soon engulfed me.
"Dananananana~life is dynamite shining through the city with a little funk and soal"
I shot up from the bed drenched in sweat and tears. I gasped for air and brought my hands near my neck. I looked around and I was in the room the lights bright as ever the birds chirping. I looked at my phone shutting the alarm. 7:07am it showed.
It was a dream! I felt tears flow off my cheeks as I sighed in relief.
My phone rang making me jump.
"Hello Star I am coming to pick you up in 20 min OK." My friend beemed.
"OK" I said my throat was dry and it hurts to speak.
"Hey what happened?" Her voice full of worry making me smile a little.
"Bad dream." I said as she said it will be fine consoling me that it was just a dream.
I walked in the kitchen to get a cut of water but trembled to what I saw.
A glass filled with water in the counter.
