I woke up to my alarm clock, Hope It Gives You Hell by All American Rejects. Like every morning I gave slight moan and wimper as I hit the snooze button. Those five minutes always feel like 3 seconds and then I hear the same song repeat itself. This time I sigh, then I hear a, "Good Morning buddy!" from on of the local spirits, Billy Monday, who is usually sitting on the edge of my bed smiling at me. I leaned up and my peeping eyes squinted at him."I'm sorry Billy I still wasn't able to find you a girlfriend. Call back later." I threw the covers over my head so he would leave. But there was something about spirits that made them disobedient.
"Oh but I know you have so many friends! There has got to be someone who wouldn't mind getting down and dirty with Big ol' Billy." He said, I slowly pulled the covers from over my head and I saw him flexing his arm muscles and kissing his biceps. I sighed."Billy I highly doubt that any of my friends what to make out with a transparnet ghost. You know all the girls now and days are into vampires or werewolves you sort of don't have a chance." At this point, I gave up, knowing that he wasn't going to leave. I dragged my feet across the hard wood floor. I was wearing my usual pajama pants with picture of Casper The Friendly Ghost on them, and a grey tank top.
"Hey now, some girls are open minded!" He said, right then is when I knew he was desparite, then again, I knew he would have been happy being some girls imaginary boyfriend. I quickly took off my pajamas and threw on some dark gray skinny jeans I wore yesterday, a navy blue v neck shirt, and a slim fit stripped black and white hoodie. I walked to the bathroom, ignoring Billys rambling about how he wants to fall in love.
I passed my mother who just got out the shower and wearing a robe. To all my straight guy friends my mom was known as a MILF, lets not get into what that means, but from what they say my mom is hot. She was Prom Queen in high school, and an honor graduate, you know, everything I'm not."Is Billy not talking today?" She asked me concerned."Nope, he's here I'm just not listening." I replied as I passed by her.
"Hey! You don't have to be so mean you know!?" Billy said still falling me."Sorry but I'm really busy, you know I have to go to school today?" I walked into the bathroom and turned the fausit on, and begun to was my face. Every time the water splashed onto my face, I went back to the day that that Spirt pulled me into the water, I could always seeing him say 'help me'. Then, I would see something pull him by the neck. A hand...with no skin on it, just bone.
I rushed out the door, not forgetting my back pack. It was always chilly outside, but I was use to it." So what do you have planned today?" Billy asked me. He liked to appear out of no where a lot. Oh wait! Thats every Spirit!"I actually have some meeting today with Mr.Reck and Mrs.Adams, I don't know why, all I know is that they only picked a handful of kids to be on some team or something like that, so I thought why not just do it."
"Oh...thats cool." Billy smiled. I could tell when he was hiding something."You know something that I don't know?" I asked him, Spirits are good ways to get information, that is, if they want to tell you."Nope, not a thing." His smile got bigger, and he begun to laugh under his breath. I squinted my eyes at him. Luckily, I didn't live to far from the school, it was a short walking distance."Tell me Billy." I demanded him."Oh, got to go!" He said quickly,and dissappeared into the wind. I sighed.
I managed to make it inside the school. I was a few minutes early as always. Sometimes Spirits would roam the halls of the school, it was sometimes hard to tell who was alive and who was a Spirit. I went to the Cafeteria, thats usually were I went when I didn't have anything better to do. I looked around, and a cold chill went down my back. The lights started to flicker, but everyone in the cafeteria acted as though nothing happened. Oh no, I was getting a vision...
I saw someone running through the forest. A woman, she turned back every now and then. Something was chasing her. But what? She screamed for help. Her clothes were torn, and her forehead was bleeding. Eventually, she tripped, and begun to crawl. Something got her by her foot and pulled her, she continued to scream untill it pulled her into the trees.
I begun to cough, I felt as though I was there. What was this vision about? What kind of person was able to pull a woman into the trees. I don't think this was just any ordinary murder. I started to rambled through my backpack and found a journal. I wrote down all the visions I had in that journal. "October 28, 2010...'The Lady in The Dark Forest'. I titled it, and I begun to write.
