When I got home, Landen was no where in site.I sat my things down on my bed. And lay down.I closed my eyes. And soon fell into a deep sleep.When I woke up the next morning, I wasn’t in bed; I was on a path in the woods, the soft chirping of birds all around me.There was a heavy fog all around, so bad that I couldn’t see, I could only feel the cement of the path under me, and the bark on the trees that surrounded me.
“Hello”? I called out.I started to walk forward, when something or someone caught my hand.There was a hissing in my ear, that I could make out to be a man’s voice
“Don’t move” he warned me.Something in his voice was familiar.
“Landed”? I asked.He ignored me and said. “Done move”….”Listen”I did as he instructed and listened.The only sound I could here was the faint breathing of mine and Landen’s breathe.No, there was another sound, not mine or landens breathing.A crunching noise, like feet upon leaves.He hissed in my ear again. “Wake up”!
“What”?
“Wake up, you need to wake up, she’s coming”And then there was the voice, the sound of the devil, coming near, no, not the devil…..Danielle!
“Oh Shannon”. She taunted. Oh dear niece, where are you.And as if the clouds parted on a rainy day. The fog was gone. Reveling Danielle to me.She was dressed in her old cloths, her gray hair wiping in the wind.
“Hello dear niece. How are you?I closed my eyes and thought. This is only a dream, this is only a dream.I looked behind me to see Landen. But he was gone.I whispered. “Oh god, let this only be a dream.”She heard me.
“Sorry dear little girl, but this is no dream, you may be sleeping, but you are very much awake.” She smiled. “And you precise little Landen Aver, well he can’t help you now.”
“Aunt Danielle, please. I begged.All of the satisfaction wore off her face.
“Don’t ever call me that! She shouted. “I am not your aunt” NOT now NOT ever”
“But why, why can’t you just trust me, why cant you just leave me be?”
“And let you hurt people, she laughed. Never.”
“Like you haven’t”?
“Well I have done what I have had to do, to get to you, what are thirteen families, when you could kill everyone in the world.”I gasped. “You! You’re the one whose been killing all of those people, those children.” All because you hold a grudge against my mother”
“Not just your mother, every single seventh child, is marked to do something unthinkable, and ill be damned before you do anything that will hurt me or anyone else.”
“You know what; you should practice what you preach.” She laughed. You know I can’t take all the credit for there demise, I did have a little help from a friend of mine.”Boots hit the ground as the sound of someone approaching came near.The smell that came off him was like a thousand rotting corpses.It wore a cloak, not allowing me to see his face. I don’t even think I would want to.
She seemed not to even notice the being.She waved a hand towards it. “This is Gill, he’s a halve being”
“Half being of what”?
“His mother was a vampire and his father was a cave troll”I laughed at that. “You’ve got to be kidding me”She had a sour look on her face.
“I mean witches I can take, but vampires, trolls”She snarled. “There is a lot of things you don’t know about my dear, and a lot you won’t be able to know.”She smiled. “Gill, why don’t you have fun with her, when your done bring her to my home. She touched his shoulder, but done kill her. She looked at me. Not yet.And like a flash, she was gone.I was left with the half being.I was looking around, there had to be some way to escape.I tried pinching myself as is stood there with the monstrosity.He lifted his hands, which made me flinch.He lifted his hands to pull back his cloak hood.I gasped.The near site of it was hideous; his head was an olive green, patched of lighted green around it. His face was as if a normal face was squished inward. Long narrow teeth hung from his mouth.
“Do I appall you my lady?”His voice was like a swamp bubble.
“Do I totally, sicken you?”I just stared in horror at him as he neared me. He walked towards me with long strides.I fell over me feet and landed on my back.He leaned over me.
“Do I make you want to die, because that’s what’s going to happen to you.With an ear piercing scream, he came down to me with his teeth barred, aiming for my neck.
