The klingmear Origin

Walking alone at night has never scared me before. I'd normally stay out till 2 in the morning sketching whatever scenery had caught my interest. I've never felt in danger, or like someone was watching me, especially since I'm not someone that anyone would wanna kidnap or something. I'm a thin 20 year old college student with dirty blond hair. It has a small white streak on the side I've had since I was a kid. my eyes were a gross green color, like a rotten grape had been stuck into my eyes.
Walking down that dirt road towards my dorm was as quiet as always. The air was filled with a cool breeze that mixed well with the dark sky. I scanned my id to enter my dorm when

"Hey! Hey kendrick! Wait up!" yelled a girl running towards me. I groaned and closed the door, contemplating whether or not I should just go inside. "Hey kendrick!" My decision was made, the girl had caught up to me.

"What's up!"

"walking home." I responded, too tired to make conversation.

"Aw c'mon!" she rustled my hair "you're really gonna be short with your own sister?"

The girl, my sister Jamie, was 1 year younger than me. She had recently transferred to my school so we could "bond" or something.

She had pretty green eyes and blond hair, always wearing her pink sweater with a cat face on the front. I never could understand why she wore it. It made her look like a 12 year old.

I fixed my hair "what're you doing out at 2am." I asked her.

"What does that matter? I could ask you the same thing you know!"

"There's no need to get defensive. I mean, unless you were murdering people in the woods. You weren't right?"

"No,'' she groaned, "I went to a club."

a club? What was she doing at a club? For as long as I've known my sister she's never been interested in drinking or dancing. Whatever. She probably went with her friends.

"Hellllooooo!" she waved her hand in my face impatiently. "No comment?"

"Do you need one? I'm not dad."

"fair enough..Well, what were you doing out so late?"

I yawned and opened my sketchbook to my newest drawing.

"You found the graveyard?" Jamie asked.

"Yeah. I thought it'd make a cool drawing."

"how'd you get into that area?"

I shrugged.

Truthfully It took me a few hours of aimless walking through the paths of grave stones to find it, but I didn't want her to know that. It'd creep her out "I'm going to bed now." I told her, turning back to the door.

"oh, alright. By kendrick!" she said cheerfully walking away.

"bye."

"Hey, Get up!" I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head.

"Ow..what the hell did you throw at me?" I said, groggily turning off the loud alarm clock.

"A notebook." I sat up and looked at my roommate Tyler, rubbing the back of my head. "Why-" "it's been going off for 20 minutes!! You didn't even move slightly!"

I grabbed my practically empty pill bottle off my night stand and got up to start getting ready for class.

"Why did you set an alarm if you weren't gonna wake up!" he yelled. Crossing his arms in front of him. "I have class." putting on black pants and a jean jacket. "If you had class at 9am,maybe don't stay out all night like a werewolf next time!" he yelled, crawling back under the covers. I grabbed my bag, put my piercings in and left the room.
When I first got into college I got 3 earrings in my right ear. This year I got a lip ring and started painting my nails black. I figured, if i was staying at this college for 3 more years i'd rather stop worrying about others opinions and be myself.
