Midnight DISCONTINUED

Chapter one ✉

"Scarlet we turn 13 tomorrow how are you not excited?!" My sister screamed into the phone. " I am excited but with all the weird stuff that's been happening-" " you're a little freaked I know I know." She said cutting me off. " Well yeah I am I mean tonight is the second Blood Moon in the past month that is not normal, and how about the fact that when I was in my room a weird looking letter showed up -" " Wait when did that happen?" she curiously asked. " Today, oh by the way there's one for you too." " Okay we will open them when I get home, I'm about two blocks away so it should be like 20 minutes." " Can't I already tried it said we have to wait till midnight." I say to my sister. " Oh okay... hey tell mom I will be home soon" "Okay ,but she is acting kind of strange." I say thinking about her behavior today. " How so?" She asks questioning me again. " Well she was talking to Grandma about an hour ago and I heard her saying she was going to tell us something before I birthday but didn't know how. It's probably what she wanted to tell us before you left." "Well its probably nothing important." " Yeah. Well I got to go so I can finish wrapping your gift." I tell my twin. "Okay bye." With that we hung up the phone. I wonder what mom needs to tell us? I think to myself as I go to my closet to get the purple glittery wrapping paper my sister's favorite. " Why did I put it on the top shelf?!?" I mutter to myself as I try to get it. Even when I'm on my tiptoes I still can't reach. I HATE being short. Nobody has actually said that I am short i just think I am. As I turn around to get my pink and black desk chair I throw my arms up in annoyance at the paper. That's when I hear a rustling behind me I jump and turn around just in time to see the paper floating towards me in the thick red cloud of fog.I am just about to scream when Sabrina comes in. She sees it and stares at a long enough for me to click into action and hide her presents under the feather comforter on my bed. Then she looks at me her eyes wide and mouths gaping. Then she stutters out to me at last " This is happening to you too?" " If it is to you too- wait this is happened to you before too?" " Yeah I didn't tell you because I thought you would laugh and tell me I was imagining things." " Well no way I can say that now." I laughed nervously trying to cover the fear that must have been in my eyes and on my face because that was when Sabrina said " Are you ok? Should we talk to mom or should I call a doctor?" " I-I-" I tried to talk but it was too late, because the room was spinning my eyelids became heavy and the room went black. The last thing I saw was red fog thick blood red fog.
