The silence was deafening. Lara's thoughts ran rampant as she realized she was completely alone. "Where am I, d-did someone take me?" she thought. It took her a moment to come to the realization that she also couldn't see anything in front of her. Blindfolded? Impaired?
She pondered for a bit and slumped down to the damp floor. Why was it so damp? So cold and hard.
A rush of fear passed through Lara's frail body. She tried to scream. But nothing came out. Instead she was greeted by the taste of a million pennies. It was so strong that she felt herself choking on the intensity. Was this the taste of her own blood?
Questions raced through her mind. So many questions that Lara would never know the answer to. She had theories about what was happening. Except the truth that she didn't know and would never know, was that she was buried 10 feet deep into the earth.
Lara James was murdered 20 days ago by her sisters hands. Out of spite? Jealousy? Or was it just a spur of the moment killing? The intentions of her sister is unknown and are buried with her sisters body.
Unfortunately, for Lara's poor soul, she would never receive closure or justice. For her family and everyone in the town accepted the lie that the troubled thing ran far far away.
