Lost in the dark (Part 1, Book 1)

One foggy evening, I was writing in my journal on a Tuesday night. I loved to write and draw about anything. So I drew a picture and wrote about it. I drew my friend and I climbing a tree. So high, we touched the sky. It was pitch black. I heard foot steps upon my bedroom door. "Who is it?" I asked quietly. "Hi sweetie!" My mom smiled at me. "What are you doing on this late night?" She sat down on my bed looking at my journal. I closed my journal, so she didn't even see. "Oh? You don't want me to see huh?" I shrugged. "Well.. I, uh." my mom stared and looked at me. "Well? Oh well, you need some rest!" She hugged me and tucked me in. "See you in the morning." My mom closed the door. I glanced out my window from my bed. I sighed and closed my eyes. I don't know why I'm so unhappy. I had though to myself.....

"Run, run!" I heard my friend yell. So I did what he said. So I ran. "Hurry! It's coming! I kept running. "Why do we have to run!? What's going on!? No answer.... I tripped and fell, But my friend couldn't see or hear, because of the loud noise. He was ahead of me running. I turned around. But light came to my eyes......


I had opened my eyes. I just woke up. The sun from the window shined in my eyes. I heard a knock on my door. "Come in." I said while yawning. "Morning Sweetie! Look who's here!" My neighbor was standing silently near my mom. She was all in black for some reason. I really disliked her a lot. She was mean when I was younger, like 5. Flash back........


"Hey Lisa!" I said to my neighbor. "Why are you talking to me?" She stared at me. "Um, I'm your best friend! Remember?" She shook her head. "No, no not at all." I started to sobb in my hands. "Oh, and will you egt away from me?" I stared at her. "Yes your majesty!" I ran back in my house.

I remembed that day. I slipped on my headphones quickly. I listened to rock music. My mom walked away to make breakfast. "Listen you jerk, don't ignore me or i'll tell my mom you did that to me. I'll tell your mom too! You think your so cool! But your not, you know that right?" I stood up and took off my headphones. "No I didn't know that..." She smiled. "Did you ever go to school?" She smiled and skipped to the kitchen. I followed her. I won't talk to her. I'll just ignore her. We were all sitting staring at our meal. "Want some syrup on your pancakes, Rose?" I turned red and yelled at her. "Stop acting nice! You always act mean, so just act like you normally do!" I sat back down in my chair. My mom looked at me with a confused face. "Sweetie! Don't you dare be rude to a guest! Never ever! Go stomp up to your room. Right now, missy. So I did. Lisa skipped and followed me. "Wow, what was that all about, gosh?" I jumped on my bed and covered my face with a pillow. "Just go away! Please?! She looked at me with an evil smile and left the room. I looked out the window 3 minutes after she left. She was walking, and talking with a strange man outside in the dark alley. I went down there too. I looked. No one was there. I was holding my journal. I looked inside of my journal and turned to the page I drew last night. Clouds covered me. I couldn't even see. Pitch black........
