Darkening, Chapter 1 Author: Jessie Masoner
Authors note: Please read chapter 0 before this, otherwise you will be lost, even so you just as well will be lost with chapter 0 being read, so I'd say look at the other peoples comments.
"I'VE GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE!" I scream as I rip the IV out of my arm and try to stand. I don't know how long I've been out but all I know is that he will return for me. As I hear peoples voices telling me to calm down I see a man in a nurses outfit edge towards me, I pick up my lunch tray and smash him over the head. He is out like a light. As I stumble through the room dressing myself I feel him watching me waiting to see what I am going to do.
The entire room is blurry I can feel their medication wearing off, as my eyes start to focus I notice shadows lining up on the edge of the door way. I quickly look out the window and see what floor I am on, about 3 floors up, but there is a roof top 1 floor down directly beneath me. As the commotion outside increases I rip the sheets off the bed and tie one end around the orderly's neck and move him to the window, I pick up a chair that is in one corner of the room and block the door with it, I pick another chair up and throw it through the window.
A rush of air fills the room as it settles I hear pounding at the door and people shouting for me to open the door. I throw the other end of the sheets out of the window and as I start to climb out the door is kicked open. As I slide down I see him looking down at me.
I loose my grip and I plummet the rest of the way down, as I hit the gravel covered roof I feel as if I had just been hit by a bus, but the medication they used on me is working to my advantage and it quickly numbs the pain. As I get up and begin to walk away I look back and I see him standing on the window ledge staring at me, taunting me as I pick up my pace he begins to climb down.
As I reach a service ladder, leading straight down to the floor, I hear him land on the gravel, I don't turn back this time, and I know that if he catches me he will kill me. I begin to climb down the ladder as I hear his footsteps getting quicker, I take a risk and slide down the rest of the way. As I hit the bottom I tumble backwards and loose sense of where I am.
As I come to I see him looking down at me with that killer look in his eyes I scramble to my feet, he shouts something at me, everything I hear is blurred together I can't understand anything I begin to limp away as I hear his feet hitting each step, the medication begins to wear off, he is coming quicker now.
I am finally in the open and I see my reflection in a mirror, I am worse off than I thought, blood is dripping down my face and my arms are bleeding. I look closer at myself to see if anything else is wrong but no time he is there behind me. I notice that a man ahead of me has a pocketknife in his right pocket; he accidentally flashed it when he put his phone away, and I speed up.
As I come nearer to the man with the knife the medication all but wears off, and I bump into the man quickly taking his knife while falling onto the ground he helps me up and makes sure I'm fine and I thank him and I am on my way again, up ahead I see an alley as he is getting closer I make my decision to fight him and I turn down the alley.
As I wait for him to show up in the alley I feel someone breathing down my neck and I hear his voice, "Waiting for someone?"
The world goes black again. Fading in and out I see that he has brought me into a building I am sitting in a chair he is holding the man's knife. "The Police are on the way." He states with no emotion in his voice. "Your time is up now." I exclaim, as the world fades in and out he walks closer and looks me in the eyes, "Now why would they be after me? You were the one who killed that orderly. You were the one who stole from that man and followed him to his house and killed him with his own knife. Very naughty if you ask me."
"I didn't do anything like that." I shout at him
"Oh yes you did, your so smart but you cant even figure out what has happened?" as the sirens begin to get closer he smiles, "Unfortunately for you, they know what you are and they know how to deal with you. You have two choices you can a. run like you always do. Or B. make a stand what will you do?" After that my head sinks to my chest the last thing I see is a pool of blood and I hear him telling me that it will be all right. The world grows cold as I hear the door burst open and then nothing.
