There was pain. There was pain everywhere, my body was in pure agony.
The sound of droplets of water, next to my face drove me awake.
"What the.."
I was surrounded by looming trees. How did I get here? I tried to remember what occurred to lead me to these circumstances, but was left clueless. I could not remember a single thing.
I slowly got up an noticed my injured leg, which was half cut, fear took over me, an I bit down my lip in agony. How I got this, was beyond me.
I looked at my surroundings better an noticed that it had been raining, I shivered from the cold an took a step by step trying to find my way out. My clothes were soaking, now that i noticed was a dress, my shoes were missing an so was my purse..wait my purse. To my horror, it had my cellphone in it. A load of memories washed over me as I recalled what had occurred realizing why I had my purse and was in a dress.
"Come on Cristal" begged my friend Bella, we were going to a party at a club which I have never attended before.
"Coming" I yelled as I checked myself out in the mirror, and to my surprise I was actually satisfied to my reflection. A smile formed on my face, this was my night to have fun.
I walked down an got my car keys an Bella came along an we sat in the car. I put my car key...
Then what... Remember Cristal remember for gods sake. I chanted.. I closed my eyes. Took a deep breathe in and out, relaxing and slowly going through my memories. I needed to calm down. I needed to know what happened before I could go anywhere.
-memory-
We slowly pulled out of the drive way an went on the quite road, no one was around cause it was like 1:00 at night. my parents weren't at home, they were on a vacation in San Antonio.
Then I turned the corner and images flashed before my eyes. A car coming at full speed. Bella screaming for me to watch out. The collide. Screams. Pain. As I snapped out of my horrifying car accident, I finally realized Bella was no where in sight.
Shit. She could be injured like me, and helpless somewhere in these woods.
Slowly, I pushed myself up. Bracing myself against a tree. I yelped on pain as my hurt leg hit a branch, an i fell on the wet an muddy ground, tears ran down my cheek, why is this happening i screamed to no one in particular, but then i heard a tree branches moving.
I stopped moving, my heart was racing an fear in loped me. There was someone out there or something..
I heard a branch being stepped on from behind me an i stiffened. I slowly turned around waiting for the worst. a animal or a human, oh please let it be a human.
When i turned around my eyes met a dark figure of a men saluted, leaning against a tree. It looked like a human shape i thought relief washed over me.
"Oh thank god, please help me please me an my friend Bella had an accident an i don't know what happened after that, please help me..." i cried, I stood up in pain but made it.
"Well..such a sweet girl aren't you..To bad your friend is no longer alive" he chuckled
I felt my heart stop. The world stop. Mt mouth felt dry and I felt my world crashing down.
"What are you trying to say" I stuttered, tears rushing down my cheeks as I questioned him.
He stepped forward, "What do you think?"
Grimacing in pain as I backed up, I knew somehow he was telling the sick truth.
Bella was dead and he wasn't that nice. I was so close to breaking down but I had to hold myself together.
This strange man could be a god damn rapist for all I know and I'm having a conversation with him. I needed to escape quickly.
He chuckled again, "I'm not gonna hurt you, an never kill you" he said sweetly but the sarcasm was easily heard in his voice. I was terrified. His face turned cold and his eyes took on a gold color to my dismay. What I just witnessed was beyond my mind. This was not right.
