BLOOD LEGACIES

I felt my hand against the bunch of roses just at my nightstand, with curious eyes before I caught a letter attached to it.

"From Sarah" I muttered, I remembered when Vanessa told me back at the hospital, that Faes gifting flowers was a way of apology from them. She must be seeking my approval, I sighed deeply. Maybe at school, I would probably talk to her, to put her at ease that I was no longer thinking about what she did back at the mall, after all, it was forgotten and a long story for me.

I have already forgiven her... that was the kinda person I was, the fresher the memory the deeper the pain, but long it happened, I was already letting it go.

At the sound of my alarm I jolted awake, groaning and rubbing my eyes, before tapping for my glasses, how did my room get so dirty? I felt sand? I finally found my glasses, putting them on, my eyes adjusted, hoping to figure out what made my room so dirty overnight but I found myself in the woods.

I gasped as my heart slammed beat like a deep sound of a Chinese drum, and panic filled me. How did I get here? I was certain I slept on my bed, how the heck did I get here?!

I was up on my feet, my breath raspy as I twirled multiple times hoping this was somewhat a dream or maybe I was losing my mind.

But this seemed real, even as the cold wind gusted through and I shivered, I was just in my PJ’s and it was clearly not suited for this kind of weather at all.

"Deep breaths, Emma, deep breaths," I told myself trying to calm down. I needed to stop panicking so I could think of a way out of this, a disarray thought won’t help me right now, I needed to think.

I stroke a nod, my phone, I have to find my phone! My gaze leveled but it seemed like I was the only one who made it here, of course.

"What’s happening?!" I panicked but that wasn’t enough to make me lose my mind when I heard a branch snap. I think I lost it and my body shuddered beyond control and my breathing picked up and my brain signaled to me and told me, something or someone was there with me.
