The After Story Mika sat on her couch, feet propped up on the coffee table.The daily times were in her hands, and she was deeply involved in it. She didn't notice when Jake came and sat next to her. But when he obnoxiously slurped his coffee, she glared at him."Do you mind?" Her voice was full of sarcasm, and a joking tone."nope. Thanks" Jake grinned at her, giving her a small wink as he turned on the TV.Mika knew she'd never finish the article, so she put down the paper and joined in watching TV.After Hesiet died, Mika and Jake quit the company.It was too much work and risked both of their lives; farther than they wanted it risked.Jake went ba
Chapter Nine "Jake? What is it?" She tried to look at the phone, but Jake's hand was gripping it too tightly, covering the I.D."It...it says...it's my father..""What?!" This time she moved his hand and saw for herself, that it was him. "Jake! Answer it!""No! It can't be him! They wouldn't make a mist-..." Mid sentence, Mika had grabbed the phone out of his hand and pushed talk."Hello? Hello? Is anyone there?"Mika was about to hang up when a deep voice said, "Jake. Is dead."Mika's eyes went wide, as the phone went soaring through the air, hitting the wall and silently falling to the ground. Jake's eyes followed it, shock, curiosity, and a tiny
Chapter Eight Chapter Eight.Mika could do nothing but stare at the gun. Her attention span, at the moment, couldn’t handle it all. Her eyes read the note, over and over again, not comprehending it. “Jake…no…he can’t die…” The tears that had almost dried became wet again. Mika grabbed the post-it and crumbled it up, tossing it to the garbage can, ignoring the fact that she missed.Mika didn’t know what to do. She didn’t know whether or not to tell Jake. She was sure he’d want to know about his own death, but would that help any? Would he go running off to confront Hesiet?Mika wasn’t going to risk
Chapter Seven. Chapter Seven.Mika stared at Hesiet, wide eyed.“Oh god.” Jake stared at Hesiet just as wide eyed as Mika. “Well, what a surprise. Is this the, “All you can kill” buffet?” Hesiet laughed darkly as he transformed into his human form. In his right hand was what looked like a mini gun of some kind. But it was much more than that.“Well, if it isn’t Mr. Goodman.” Hesiet put on, an obviously fake, smile and titled his head while he addressed the man.“Hesiet. What’re you doing here?” Mr. Goodman’s tone was cold and hard as she stared at the demonic human. “Oh, I think y
Demon House - 3 I kept screaming until the chopped up man grabbed my throat and threw me backwards into the bloody room. “NOOO!” I flailed, and tried to scramble toward the door, but the man threw Jack in and slammed the door before I could even get onto my knees. I tried to stand, but my shoes slipped on the blood, making a noise like a squeegee would make. Jack managed to get up and tried to pull the door but it just made a sound of the lock hitting the jam, and after a second, he came over and took my hand, helping me up. “Thanks” my voice began shaking, as I looked around. Edward had somehow escaped again, though he didn’t go pas
It's Coming...11 Chapter Eleven.“I’m sure it’s just a prank; Jag would never try to get you with me so close. Why he attacked you was because he believed I was still out of town”I shook my head. “But you were! What made you come back?” My mascara was smeared, and my eye liner was running, but I ignore it. “I felt something was wrong, and I came just in time.” His gentle eyes looked at me, I had to believe him. How could I doubt my Alexander? The one who’d just saved me from a vengeful vampire. We talked for a little while longer, before he promised to keep me safe and left me alone in my room. He thanked my
It's Coming...10 Chapter TenI saw the one Alex had called Jag standing by a tree. My eyes scanned the surrounding area, all I saw were trees. Big, black, towering trees. When I moved my eyes back to Jag, he was gone. I spun around quickly trying to see where he was. He was no where in sight. I panicked and started looking in the trees. When I spotted the darkest and biggest one, I saw the white haired figure on the top branch. I turned to run, but suddenly he was there. I could see his perfect white teeth, and there sat his pointed fangs. Covered in blood. I looked around, but didn’t see where it’d come from.That is until I started to feel dizzy
It's Coming...9 Chapter NineI took the new rose up to my room, and replaced it from the old one. I still couldn’t bear to part with it, so I took it to my back yard, dug a shallow hole and buried it. I sighed as I walked back to the house, brushing off my knees. At least he’s thinking of me, right? Right as I was about to open the door, that caw came. I spun around quickly, almost getting dizzy, and spotted the crow. “What do you want?! Leave me alone, you stupid bird!” I glared at it, about as much of a glare as I could muster. And he cawed. I almost broke out crying, I didn’t need a bird harassing me. I closed my eyes and whe
It's Coming...8 Chapter EightI didn’t want to go to school the next day, but I, unfortunately, didn’t have a choice this time. I stood on my front porch for five minutes, just standing there. I was just about to take a step when I heard noise. “A bird?” I looked around. A big black crow was staring directly at me from the tree. I stared back at it; it cawed once more and flew off.Birds these days, harassing people. I shrugged and started walking. Along the way, I could’ve sworn someone was following me, but I was too paranoid to turn back and look. I’m sure it’s nothing, probably just that psychotic bird. I got to s
Alternate Ending. Alternate Ending:I had originally planned on waking someone so they could look at my head, but the second I hit the couch I was out. When I awoke it was early morning, and everyone was awake. The sun was up, and I had no idea where Jag was. Was he okay? Had he successfully killed Alex? Or had he woken too soon and gotten Jag himself? Until it was dusk, I’d not know the answers. I got my mom to look at my head, saying I tripped outside. She said I’d be a little dizzy for a while, and to relax, it’s just a slight bump. I just watched TV all day, it finally started getting dark, and I went outside to wait. I sat on the steps a
The Beginning of the End, Fin. Chapter Eight, The Beginning of the End.In the back of my mind I heard what sounded like yelling and arguing. And I thought I heard some banging, like someone being thrown into wood. Was I in a forest? Or a cabin? Ugh, my head was killing me. Had someone hit me? Then it all came back to me, or at least part of it. Alex had shown up, way too early. Jag and I weren’t prepared. Jag wasn’t even with the program. But wait, if Jag had been out cold, who was Alex fighting? It could be one of my parents, or my brother. Oh no, I have to get up. But I can’t feel any part of my body, and I randomly feel cold. I can’t just lie aro
The Beginning of the End,7 Chapter Seven, The Beginning of the End.I had to think of something. Jag hadn’t explained exactly what to do with the crucifix, not that I had one, anyway! I didn’t know what to do. Alex was smirking evilly, and slowly making his way to me, as I walked backwards to the tree Jag was slumped against. I stumbled back a few times, but knew I couldn’t fall or else I was a goner. I needed to figure out what he’d done to Jag, he looked fine, maybe a little smokey-…Oh my god. If Jag had passed out early enough, the sun could’ve gotten him. But, don’t they usually completely explode? I glanced up at the trees; just
The Beginning of the End,6 Chapter Six, The Beginning of the End.“Mom, dad? Can I talk to you about something?” It was later that morning, my conversation with Jag still fresh on my mind. But I thought I’d get it out of the way.My parents were sitting conservatively at the breakfast table, sipping their coffee, reading their papers. I rolled my eyes and sat across from them.“Sure, honey. What is it?” My dad put down his coffee and looked at it, my mom did the same.“Well, since its summer vacation, I thought we should go…on…vacation. I know it’s not really your style, but I found this awesome old mansion right outside
Preview - Mecha Witch The girl stood on the gallows, awaiting her execution, the noose tied slackly around her neck. Her young face was covered in tears, as the mayor of the small village announced the witch's death. The young girl couldn't understand what was going on; this had all put her in a state of shock, as she looked around to her patrons, her family and friends. As they all watched her about to be killed. They couldn't possibly think she was actually a witch. She'd never done anything to anyone, never rebelled. She was the good girl. She was just confused. She'd somehow figured out how to put parts together, to make a new machinery type of deal. No one k
Mecha Witch - 1 The young girl ran as fast as her short legs could carry her. Her eyes were full of tears that hadn't yet fallen, and her rosy cheeks were stained with ones that had betrayed her. Her auburn, red hair was tied up in a messy bun, but by now most had fallen out. Her tiny body was covered in a thin, white cotton dress. It had perforated holes along the collar and sleeves, and lace running the borders. But now it was dirt brown, from where she'd tripped and fallen. Her tired eyes carefully scanned the area ahead of her; the sun was setting so she was being extraordinarily cautious. Making sure there were no fallen branches and roots she could tri
Mecha Witch - 2 Jade and Elizabeth were walking through Time Square. Jade had started fiddling with his phone, which he obviously was still ignorant at using, whilst Elizabeth was staring wide eyed at all the sights and buildings. Back in her time, buildings never reached more than one story, due to the lack of real resources and foundations, when someone tried to build a two story house, an entire family of five was killed. Unfortunately, it had been her family. She'd been out milking the cows, when the second floor had just collapsed upon them. She stopped walking in the middle of the sidewalk as Jade continued walking, but she didn't notice, she was too c
Mecha Witch - 4 Lizzy stopped once she reached the end of the alley. Her heart was racing a thousand miles an hour. She wanted to take a step forward but her legs wouldn't listen. Her fear was incapacitating, she wanted him safe, but she was so afraid. She just wanted to watch him walk away, that's all. She slowly turned around but gasped, once again, when she saw him at the end of the street, watching her. He smiled. "Wanted to watch me walk away, right?" When she nodded, he took a few steps towards her. "No!" she held her hands up but he kept walking. "Jade, you're going to get hurt." She watched him walk and then shrug."I don't care. What kind of gent
