Taking Chances

I stuttered as the male in front of me looked around and dragged me into the house, "Wait..someones trying to...kill you?" He asked me as he ran a hand through his black hair and motioned me to sit down on the couch. I nodded and sat down on the couch, my mind rambling with thoughts, I just watched my fucking friend get murdered and now a maniac was after me. And he could murder the guy that was helping me. What did I get myself into?! No, what did Alex get me into! I didn't do any of this! But still it was my fault, I let her die, I got dragged into it when I should have burned that wigi board and dragged Alex away from it. But no, she's dead and I'm here, risking my life to stay in some strangers house. "Miss?" "Miss?" The male asked as I looked up and tore myself away from my thoughts, "Hmm?" I asked as he looked over at me and asked, "Do you want some tea, coffee?" He said to me as I nodded and told him tea as he dissapeered into the kitchen and then came back in a few minutes with the tea. I took the cup from him and blew across it sending some of the hot air away from the cup. I took a sip and looked at him as he sat down, facing me, "You said someone was trying to kill you, right?" He asked me as I nodded and forced the tears down my throat, "Yeah." I responded as he looked at me with a confused look, "Why would someone want to do that? Erm...you dont have to tell me if you don't want to, since you have no clue who I am." He said to me as he scratched the back of his neck, "No, no ,no I need to tell someone or I'm going to regret it forever." I began as I set down the mug and ran a hand through my hair, "My friend, Alex and I were planning on taking a road trip before our last year of College, and she found an old wigi board in my attic and told me that it would be fine, that they actually didn't work. I finally gave in, so we sat down in the attic and began to try it out. A few mintues later like maybe thirty or fourty, we began to hear this scratching sound, and then a screaming sound, like someone had taken needles out from a wall and then stuck them into themselves, Alex laughed at me when I picked up the knife from my boot, I grabbed it on the way up to the attic just in case. She told me that it was just the wind, but the thing is, there was no wind." I stopped as I buried my face in my hands and then took them off running them through my long hair.

"So we went down the stairs forgetting the noises until they started getting louder as well as the screaming. And then this thing came at me, it was more then creepy, and its voice was more than terrifying. It stabbed me in the leg and went after my friend tearing out her eyes and watching her bleed. I took the chance to run after he started going around the house trying to find me. Then I ran here, and he's going to find me and kill me." I said, sobbing the end part that I had said, it came out more odd then the way that I thought it did. "Who are you anyway?" I asked as he smiled at me and took the empty cup of tea from me and then put them in the sink then coming to sit down with me. "I'm Jake Pitts." he said to me as I smiled and nodded, "I'm Sylvia Baxter." I said as I heard a voice come down the hallway "Jake! What the fuck are you..." the voice stopped as a tall, skinny male with long black wavy hair entered the room. "JAKKEEE." He shouted as he pointed to me, making me cringe as I thought about what the male in front of us thought, "Shut the fuck up CC, and would you mind going away before you scare her? She's not in the best mood." He hissed at his friend. "Woah man, hahaha shes having some girl problems I see." the so called CC said to me as I sighed and stood up my hands balled up in fists. "ITS NOT MY FAULT THAT SOME TERRIFYING THING FROM A WIGI BOARD KILLED MY FRIEND AND IS AFTER ME NOW!!!!!! SO SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!" I screamed at the male as tears began to stream down my face, I grabbed my jacket and ran out of the house, forgetting the fact that there was a supernatural figure out to kill me.

I pulled the jacket on and wiped my tears as I heard my voice being called, "SYLVIA!! SYLVIA!! WAITT!" Jake screamed out to me as I ran faster and rounded a corner, then hearing the hoarse voice made me scream, "You thought you could get away from me?! HAH! Well your nextttt." I felt the hands over my mouth and the needles wrapping around my throat, "JAKE!!!!" I screamed through the hands as the thing dug the needles into my throat and then let me fall, making me scream out in pain. "Your friend cant help you!!!" the creature shouted ending with a cackle as it lunged at me, making me roll out of the way, I felt the needles dig into my skin, the pain seared through my leg and I heard the thing scream as I looked up and saw a familar black haired male strangling the thing. And once he had the chance he came and pulled me up making me run back to the house.
