Darkness overcomes completely

I held Kayle close to my body, letting my body heat warm her.  She whimpered as I set her down.  I shushed her quickly, pressing my ear to the bottom of the door, peering out through the small crack.  My dad was laying on the couch sleeping, a beer bottle was barely in her grasp.  I got up and looked at Kayle.  She was quiet, her eyes large and set intently on me.  She knew she had to be quiet and not cry.  I grabber a jacket and picked her up.  I barely opened the door, just enough for me to squeeze out. I tip toed down the hall to my sisters room.  She heard me coming and opened the door.  I handed her Kayle.  I quickly kissed Kayle's cheek and whispered that I loved her. I mouth the words 'thanks' to my sis and walked back to my room. I went to my window and opened it quickly.  I placed my legs out the window and drop.  Luckily I'm on the first floor.  I ran up the street and finally made it to bus stop.  I sat on the bench for about 5 min.  I finally see Jake's car drive up and I hop in. I lean over and kiss him after I put on my seat belt.  We drove in silence until we reached the grave yard.  I started to get a little nervous as we walked closer to the certain tombstone.  Jake grab my hand and squeezed it.  I felt a little more safe.  I saw a lights flickering ahead and noticed candles were set everywhere around the tomb stone.  I stopped dead in my tracks, seriously starting to get scared. Jake pulled my hand and I just followed him.  We stopped in front of the grave.  The grey stone was so old I couldn't see what was written.  Jake knelt down and bowed his head.  he pulled from his bag a knife and bottle.  He cut his wrist a little so enough blood seeped through.  He held it over the bottle and let the blood drip.  He started whispering under his breath.  He hand me the bottle.  I knew what he wanted me to do. I started to protest but he put his finger to my lips. The blood from his wound dripped down, slowly making a trail down my neck and down my shirt.  I cringed and he put the bottle to my lips.  He tilted it back and the liquid trickled into my mouth. I gagged and he stopped.  I knew either way I would drink that so I put it to my lips and slowly drank until he motioned for me to stop. I felt a little dizzy but kept my eyes focused on Jake.  He started to mumble under his breath and I collapsed. 1

I woke up to Kayle crying.  I noticed I was back in my room, it was the morning.  I got up and went to her.  She stared at me with her big blue eyes.  I picked her up and noticed she need a changing.  I changed her and feed her.  All while I was with her she didn't make a peep and kept her eyes on me.  I felt a little nervous under her glare.  I set her on the bed as I got changed.  I was still in my clothes from last night.  I noticed the were covered in blood.  I started to breathe deeply and ripped my clothes from me. I felt sick and very scared.  I looked down at my hands and noticed that my nails very long. Longer than normal.  My skin looked paler and my eyes darker. I grabbed new clothes and dressed quickly.  Kayle giggled when I picked her up.  Angry at Jake, I stormed off to the car outside.  I buckled Kayle up, and then got in.  I started the car and drove as fast as I could, but abiding the law, to Jake's house.  We finally got there. I grabbed Kayle.  She shivered and hid her face in my shoulder. I stormed off to the door and knocked.  He didn't answer right away, so I rang the doorbell over and over again.  Finally he answered.  He looked scared at the look I gave him.  I just glared at him and he moved so I could enter.  I marched to the couch and sat Kayle down.  She stared in awe at the house.  Even though Jake was her father she had never been in there. I glared at Jake until he said something.2

"Hi" That set me off.3

"Hi?! That's all you have to say after what you did to me?! HI?! What the fuck did you do?!?!" I screamed.  Kayle started to whimper.  I picked her up and held her to me.  Jake stammered and finally sighed.4

"I had to. For Kayle's sake."5

"What does Kayle have to do with this?"6

"I don't want her living with you.  I have to do this so you will leave her.  to me." 7

"You want Kayle. You have ignored her for her entire life.  I know its not that long but why now?" 8

"I met someone. I told her about Kayle and she wants to be a part of her life." 9

"well a part of her life. You're not a part of her life. and you're not getting her."10

"We'll see about that. what I did will take affect in about 24 hours." I stormed out and buckled Kayle. I drove on, getting more scared as I drove.  I got home and ran inside. Kayle was getting fussy, and I knew she needed a nap. i put her down and started to cry.  But instead of salty tears that fell down my cheeks, something else fell. I swiped my eyes and noticed blood fell.  Blood was flowing from my eyes.  I jumped up and ran to the bathroom.  My cheeks were stained with bloody streaks.  I screamed and tripped over the rug. I landed in the tub, grabbing the faucet.  The water flowed out covering me. I striped and decided to take a bath.  I sat under the warm water my head completely under the water.  I sat there for about 15 minutes.  I didn't need to breathe.  I put my hand to my chest and got scared. There was not heart beat.  I jumped out of the bath and looked in the mirror.  My eyes were so bright it was like a light.  My skin was so dark, the color of night.  My beautiful red hair was white, pure white. My nails were at least 1 1/2 inches long.  What had happened to me? what have I become?11

really had started to worry.  My appearance has completely changed, and not for the better.  I sat on the edge of the tub.  I need to talk to Jake, I thought.  Why would he do this to me?  I loved him.  Kayle is a proof of our love.  I wrapped myself and went to my room.  As I entered my room a piercing stab went through my brain.  I clutched my head and screamed.  It was like a knife jabbing its blade multiple times into my head.  Blood flowed freely from my eyes, staining my cheeks and neck.   Finally the pain stopped.  I gasped for air and panted.  My lungs felt like they were going to burst.   I had to do something.  I heard Kayle cried out.  I wiped the tears from my cheeks.  I went to her and she stared at me in wonder.  She immediately quieted.  Her blue eyes stared at me, scared and frighten.  She looked at me like I was a stranger .I started to walk to her and she screamed out.  The sound, the sound of her scared of me, sent my heart shattering in millions of pieces.  I ran from the room, and to my sisters’.  She saw me and screamed. That sound and look, the same as Kayle, broke my heart even more.  I ran to my car and drove off.  I started crying and banged my head against the steering wheel.  The car swerved but I got control of it.  I panted and decided to go to Jake's.   I just walked in his house and saw him sitting on the floor.  His face was cut up and his body bloody.  All my anger for him simmered and I ran to him.  I cleaned his wounds quietly.  He stared up at me, evilly. 12

“Your family has already forgotten you.” He said quietly. I just keep cleaning. “They hate you.  Kayle hates you.  She doesn't’t know you.” I started to tear up. Red covered my eyes. 13

“It’s not true.” I said quietly.14

“Yes it is.  It’s true. They have forgotten you. You are nothing. Not even a memory.  Kayle will take up your sister as her mom.   You are twins.  Just leave them.” The tears flowed freely.  That’s why they screamed.  Jake lifted my head with his palm. He kissed my cheek, slowly moving down to my lips.  I pulled away, still refusing to believe him.  “Follow me” He took my hand and we went to my house.  Ashley, my sister, was rocking Kayle.  They stared at each other like we did.  I knew what Jake was saying was true.  I screamed out in terror.  We went back to his house, me sobbing all the way.  He led me in, and set me on the couch.15

“My baby…my baby….” I randomly murmured. Jake as got up and came towards to me.  I got up and started walking away.  He came after me faster and I ran out the door. I ended up running to the grave yard.  I sat at the same tombstone where it first happened.  Where Kayle had loved me, the time when she knew who I was.  I just cried, the blood falling down.  I couldn’t stand that feeling.   I just cried and cried. Then all of a sudden the piercing feeling came back.  I screamed and clutched my head.  I saw Jake coming towards me, but his figure was just a red bloody figure.  I never saw what happened, but I felt it.  A sharp piercing pain went through my heart. I felt cold, then felt relieved. It was over. My suffering was done.  Then I saw it.  Jake, Ashley, and Kayle, all living happily.  Together.  All forgetting about me.  My presence was never there.  Not even a memory.16
