Seventeen
I wake up in a startle. Sweat pours down my face. I gasp in the air. Another nightmare. I grip the charm on my neck. That was probably the worst nightmare thus far. I... I killed Aunt May. The shadow was controlling me like a puppet. I roll over. I look up at the dark celling.
But... there's pain in my back. I sit up. I feel like somethings bursting out of my skin like in the alien movies. I turn. Scarlet looks asleep. That's good for me. I carefully get out of bed. I walk to the bathroom. I gently close the door. I turn on the light. I remove my shirt. I look at myself an I jump.
There's something growing on my shoulders. It looks like... feathers? What is going on? I feel them. They felt like feathers. I see something rising from my back. Oh no... where there's feathers there's wings. How is this possible? I don't care. I'm in a crisis. I have to get rid of these wings. I grab the razor from the cabinet. I dig it into my shoulder. I wince. Thank goodness Scarlet is asleep. I wince as blood and black feathers drip.
I have to get these off. I can't question the science behind this. I bite my tongue, so I won't scream. There's a lot of pain but it honestly doesn't feel as bad as when I got stabbed. I have to keep pushing.
