She sat up and looked at me, as she covered the bloody wound on her stomache, she uttered "Blade... it's all a game. It's hide-and-seek and Dad is it."
*Flashback*
"Stay here!" She whispered to me as she placed me in a closet.
"Don't mover until Dad is gone."
"But Kelsey!" I yelped as Dad walked in.
"Shh! Don't move!" She repeated.
I heard shouting but I couldn't quite make it out, so I peeked through the slightly opened doors.
BANG!
The sound of a gun went off and I saw my sister fall to the floor, bleeding. She tried to crawl away but was yanked up por her auburn hair por Dad and was thrown against the wall.
BANG!!
Again she was shot, this time in the side. "WHY! Why are you doing this! You'll never find Blade! She's gone!" Kelsey screamed as blood dripped from her mouth.
"You want to know why!?" Dad retorted "because she has abilities no other normal human has!"
This time she built up the strength to fight back. She stood up, grabbed the faca she hid on her cinto, correia and ran at him and attacked, which resulted in her being thrown right in front of the closet I was in.
She sat up and looked at me, as she covered the bloody wound on her stomache, she uttered "Blade... it's all a game. It's hide-and-seek and Dad is it."
BANG!
And with that she fell to the ground. Tears formed in my eyes and streamed down my face like waterfalls. She protected me and died for me and sat there and did nothing. I whispered so low it was barely audible, "Kelsey, I will avenge you... I pinky swear!" Then all of a sudden dad turned and saw me in the closet.
"There you are!" he chuckled. I panicked as he walked towards the door. Shutting my eyes i thought of the happiest place I could remember. After about five minutos of having my eyes shut I realized i wasn't dead! A cool evening breeze blew across my face as I opened my eyes, then I noticed I was at the estrela City park under the árvore my sister read stories to me. How? How did I get from sure death, to the park? Then it hit me like a ton of bricks, 'those abilities I have that no other normal human has' is that I'm able to teleport!
Thoughts filled my head:
"I'm hungry."
"Look at that smug little brat!"
"I wonder what time it is."
Except these weren't my thought they were other peoples!
"Awesome!" I screamed "I can read minds!"
Then something else hit me. I'm alone. Kelsey's dead and I'm alone! I fell to the ground crying again. "I have to go home. I have to go back to Dad" I sighed
**************FLASHFORWARD**************
Yup ten years! And three of those years were abuse and pain from my dad.
I walked up to the apartment and went in. Arriving at my room I attempted to open the door. Locked.
"Dammit!!" I hissed as I hit my forehead on the door. "Ow!" Maybe I should use my powers, but I can't just teleport inside 'cause I haven't fully mastered my powers, so if I attempt it, I could end up somewhere I don't want to be. And I guess Mom isn't home, probably at work. Sitting down, I decided to think. About ten minutos later I heard my name. "Blade?" I looked up.
"Yea?" I replied not knowing who I was even talking to.
"It's me! David!"
"David! How are you?"
David is one of my best friends,he has dark black hair and flawless green eyes, we used to like each other but now... well right now I don't know anymore!!
"What are doing out here?"
"Oh... uhm i don't have my key...”
"Oh well if you want to, my mom is cooking supper; you can eat with us."
"Sure!"
I was hungry, alone, my mom wouldn't be início for about another 4 hours, and something about David made my coração skip a beat.
We entered David's small apartment, where his mom was cooking and his dad was leitura the newspaper.
The parents looked at me and smiled so I smiled back.
Mrs. Collins, David’s mom, chimed," David is this
the girl Blade you always talk about?"
David blushed "Mooooom!"
I giggled.
"What? Haha just come eat, the pork chops are ready."
After ceia David led me to the couch, where we sat down and watched T.V. Then I noticed papers spread out on the glass coffee table.
"David, is that your homework?"
David sighed "Yeah, but I don"t really get it."
"Well I can help you."
David's face lit up. "Okay!"
After about 5 hours of laughing and homework I realized it was 12 o'clock.
"Uh David I have to go! Thank you though!" I stuttered.
"What why!?" He replied. David grabbed my hand. "Please don't go! I had fun! Just stay, you can sleep in my room, I'll sleep on the couch!"
I sighed, I wanted to stay but i had to get início and tend to Mom. "David, I have to help my mom. I had tons of fun, I'll visit you tomarrow."
He sighed "Okay, haha, pinky swear?"
I took a step back.
"Kelsey, I will avenge you... I pinky swear!
Then I relaxed.
"Haha, I pinky swear."
With that I was out the door and at mine. I opened the door.
"Good she's home."
"Mom!?" I called as I entered "are you home?"
I called again.
"Mom whe-" but was interrupted.
"Don't you mean dad?!" A voice boomed from the darkness...
"Dad...” I mouthed as he grabbed my throat.
He boomed again. “Don’t even think about trying to teleport either 'cause if you do... your mother dies..!"
Tears streamed down my face as I saw my mom unconscious on the floor, tied up.
seguinte thing I knew I blacked out.
It's been ten years. Ten years of pain. Ten years of tears. Ten years of revenge plotting, yet doing nothing. I guess this long game of hide-and-seek is over 'cause Dad found me.
