Chapter 29
~Ina~
I rub my arms with my cold hands when the fall wind blow through the air. A bunch of kids run past me screaming and laugh as the run after each other.
One of them was wearing a masked chasing the other kids with some sort of wooden stick. I watch them while they run into the park.
Leafs were covering the path and everything else. They crunched underneath my converse while I made my why to a bench.
I let out a sigh when I sat down.
Months ago everything changed. Everything changed when they told me that Alex is the Mutati. I know what the accident caused and how I lost my memory. That vision I had in the asylum of Alex, me and Tom was a few minutes before everything turned into hell.
They wanted my parents to let us join the Blackhunters. Of course they said no. They dragged all of us in that awful room. The doctor thought that if my parents would see their children suffer they would say yes.
Their plan was to turn one of us in a Mutati. Actually it was more of a project. It was the first time they would do it and one of use were their little experiment. I don't know why they choice Alex.
When I asked Tom why him he said that they just took him. For them it was all the same. They did they spell and according to Tom it was horrible.
The blackhunters played with very dark magic.
In a way it backfired.
Yes they changed Alex, but when you make a deal with the devil you need to give him a sacrifice. Burning down the Asylum, with all the people inside was the price. Lost souls were the price and there were a lot.
I don't think they expected to be so many and that the life of doctor Henderson would be one of them. Apparently the spell and all the horrible events made my brain shut down itself.
It protected itself by forgetting everything what happen to me. Tom told me that we could escape and that I was awake when we ran out of the burning asylum.
He told me that I looked amazed when I saw the night sky for the first time. He even smiled when he told me that. He said I twirled around when rain started the pour out of the sky and that I actually laugh for the first time, that didn't last long.
He said that when I looked back at the burning building I just froze. A second later I crashed down to the floor and didn't woke up until hours later in the hospital without a memory.
Kids laughter snapped me out of my thoughts. More kids who were dressed up in different costumes ran around in the park. This would be strange if it wasn't so close to Halloween.
Halloween is in two days and so as my birthday. I'm going to be nineteen. It's weird to be born on Halloween. I never really thought about it until now. It wouldn't mean anything to a normal person, but because I'm me it has to mean something.
A girl who can see ghost is born on Halloween.
The time of the year when they believed that the boundary between this world and the otherworld thinned.
I know something has to do with my birthday. Tom, Scott and Craig all know something I don't. They just don't want to say it to me. When I asked Tom about it he said nothing is wrong.
Scott and Craig have been at our house a lot in the past few months. Their always discussing something, but the moment I walk in the room their all quiet. I hate that so much.
How much do I have to prove myself that I can handle the truth. Don't I have the right to know if it's about me!
My phone when off and I let out a sigh. It's probably Tom or someone of my friends who are wondering where I am. They have been calling me ever since I left. They're always checking on me.
If I want to go outside I have to have someone with me, well I don't want that. A few hours ago I climb out of my window and when for a walk. I just couldn't stand it anymore to be in my house.
"Hello." I asked annoyed when I saw that it was Tom.
"Ina where are you?" I could hear him walking.
"I'm find Tom. I don't need a babysitter."
I can't believe that nobody trust me to be alone.
"Ina it isn't save and you know it. Now where are you?" I shook my head looking down.
"Tom it's never going to be save and I'm not telling you."
If he's planning on babysitting me for the rest of my life like this, then I'm gonna go insane.
"That won't be necessary." My head snapped up when I heard Tom voice from next to me.
I jump up from the bench and began to walk away from him.
"Ina stop." He grab my arm and pull me back.
"Stop running away." I shook my head pulling my arm out of his grip.
"Tom I can't live like this. I don't want people to babysit me like I'm' some helpless kid. I know something is wrong and apparently everyone knows that except me." I whisper harshly to him because people were passing us by giving weird looks.
"Can't you just trust me when I say that this is for your own good?" I shook my head.
"Tom I trust you, but you will drive me insane of you go on like this."
"I already lost one sibling and I'm not planning on losing another one, so I'm gonna do whatever it takes to protect you."
I know it was a hard time for him when Alex changed, but I'm not gonna end up like him.
"Please come with me back home."
I look around letting out a sigh.
"Fine."
