Her... (Part 1!)

Instructions

HER… I was playing Minecraft when dad came to the room. When he came in a wave of coldness sunk deep in my soul. “Dinner’s ready Emily “dad said, but there was something unusual in his voice when he said that. “Is there something wrong dad?’’ I asked. The usual spark in his eye was gone when he closed the door as silently as he could and sat on my bed. ‘’ Your only 14 but still come sit here chipmunk’’ he sighed. I did what I was told and sat beside him. “Listen I want you to ignore ‘her’. You’ll see who it is when we get down . Talking about this has made her stronger. I’m sorry I had to tell you this, just PLEASE ignore her and act like things are normal.’’ Dad whispered. Tears were now springing to his eyes, and he bolted out of the room. I followed him downstairs. Then in the corner of my eye I spotted her. She had fair white, pale skin and Obsidian Eyes. Her throat was long and skinny in fact her whole body was so skinny that you could see her bones. Her deep black hair covered one eye is if she was hiding but also trying to reveal herself. she was in the darkest corner of the kitchen while the whole kitchen was lit up .she was sitting in the corner staring at me. Now I can see why dad was so scared. Mum was serving mashed potatoes with peas and rice . I do not honestly like mashed potatoes and peas with rice, but I did not complain that night. Everything was silent which was scarier than her. Her flew past me and the wave of cold washed over me again. The chilliest shiver of my life went down my spine as I quickly looked down at my food. Her crawled to Davids’s chair and put her bony hand on his shoulder. My brother was 16 yet I saw his face turn pale and his hands shivering. Dad held David’s hand under the table. After we finished eating, we silently washed the dishes. Then a plate crashed. Her had dropped a plate. “Let me help” Her whispered. We just kept silent. “I SAID Let me help!!!” Her roared. Suddenly the room went even colder than it was. I snuck a glance at Her, she looked even more terrifying now that she was mad. The room shook a little and then Her just fell to the ground as if she fell asleep or something. I looked at Mom, Dad and David to make sure I saw exactly what I saw. There faces whereas pail as the white plates which were now shattered on the ground from Her’s scream. Now that she was unconscious or whatever had happened, I said with my voice shaking “ Let’s sleep in one room tonight, shall we?’’. They agreed. “ What about we get out of here as soon as we can in the morning?” David suggested barely in a whisper. We all agreed again, but somehow, I knew it wouldn’t be easy. Since it was so cold with Her around, we grabbed all the blankets around the house and me and David slept on the floor of mum and Dad’s bedroom, the only room that could lock other than the bathrooms and toilet. Her was still lying on the floor in the kitchen. I had told David to sleep back-to-back to keep a look-out for her and we took turns sleeping although I barely could. Then just as my eyes started closing, I heard weeping, it was faint but since it was the middle of the night and everything was silent, but I could hear it clearly, then I found my pillow wet. I was the one that was crying but how come I didn’t realise the moment my eyes started tearing up? And why WAS I weeping? Before I knew it, it was morning. We had to get some water bottles and food before we left the town. Everything was going smoothly, and plus Dad had bought an RV as soon as the shop opened, so we had another temporary home for now . We had left the town. Then there was an urge to go to the bathroom suddenly, I could see David in front of the toilet door too, just staring at it. His face was pale again. “David! What in the universe did you see!” I cried. “MUUuuuumm…. MPHH!! MMMM!!!” suddenly my mouth was covered by David’s hand. “ Sorry Emily, but it must be done…’’ David whispered in my ear. He elbowed me in my ribs, making everything go black.
