JawLaw VT

Hi so short introduction! I’m JawLaw, I’m currently in college, I like playing videogames, I love watching movies and anime, and I also like playing Dungeons & Dragons. Ever since I was a kid I’ve always had a very active imagination, that’s mostly the reason why I like writing since I’ve always played my stories in my head like they were movies, it felt like the next logical step and it makes me super happy to write. But like anyone else I’m not that confident with my skills, but all that changes as of now and it’s time to break out of my shell hahaha So feel free to read my stories and if you don’t mind sharing it with your friends that would be quite swell. Also follow me on my Facebook Page JawLaw Senpai I mostly post updates there, as well as my wattpad account under the same name. -https://www.facebook.com/JawLaw07

Foretell, what is it?

Foretell has been a story that I’ve been working on since junior high. It’s about a boy named Simon discovering he has some supernatural ability that comes in handy with him solving some gruesome mysteries in his own valley along with his friends

“Specter Inspector”  Log 01: White Lady’s House

 Echoes, that’s all that’s left just…echoes. Slumbering in this empty house. The quiet…it deafens. What’s a soul got to do to feel life once more? Tossing and turning in the air as I slumber. Didn’t even know ghosts can sleep but there I was hovering in the living room sleeping, trying to dream a happy dream but only shattered fragments of what was remains, my mind no longer permits me to have a thought only eternal torment, but in that dark abyss I call my mind there he was another soul, a soul…like me, a dead man like me, but somehow his eyes…they’re still alive. And he’s holding something…what is it? Wait… THAT’S MINE!!!

           “Well…that was a fun dream.” I say as I open my eyes staring at this old cobwebbed filled ceiling as I float back down on the living room floor. This empty old space I call home can be really boring at times, since after all no one lives here anymore. I’m probably partially to blame for that since I keep scaring away potential home owners, I mean… what else does a ghost girl do right?

             “Alright, time to start the day with a bang!” I float towards the big window near the front door and sat on a wooden chair and just watch the people outside…this is literally it. This is all I do everyday, again nothing much really happens. I just see John doing his daily jogging routine, I hear he’s trying out for the track team in his uni, Terry and Martin the neighbors just talking beyond their fence, probably about sports or how great their wives are. Yup. Just same old same old I guess. Just looking at them everyday, makes me ask…what was it like? To be alive again? I just cant remember anymore.

             As I was watching outside the window I saw something new, yet something or someone familiar. It was another spirit, maybe not like me but weirdly enough he has blue skin, and he was floating around the house of the old woman that lives in the house directly across from mine. This ghost phased through her house on the second floor. Being so curious I decided to float over there myself, its not everyday I get to see a fellow spirit, the last one I met was so creepy and disgusting vomiting all over the place.

           Peeking through the wall I see this fellow spirit wearing a brown trench coat and a bowler hat, for now that’s all I saw since this ghost has his back turned to me. I quietly enter the room and witness this ghost looking at the old lady who surprisingly is now a spirit as well, it seems she just recently passed on with her body still in bed. The ghost in the trench coat gave the old woman a cat’s soul and she was just tearing up with joy.

             “Looks like I didn’t have to look that far miss, she seemed to have never left your side at all, I just found her at the big tree right next door just looking at your room.” The ghost in the trench coat said. Without any words the woman just held on tight to the ghost cat, looks lovingly at the ghost wearing a trench coat and disappears is a flash of bright light.

               “Well I wasn’t expecting an audience, this had a bigger turnout than the time I saw Vlad the Impaler having a philosophical debate with Harry Houdini. The other ghost says as he turns towards me. Getting a better look at him he is also wearing a white buttoned shirt with a red necktie, a monocle, black pants, and brown shoes. Beyond his attire his hair was in a darker shade of blue similar to mine, and that he also has very green emerald eyes.

            He looks at me for a brief moment then pulls out a pocket watch from one of his coat pockets, the watch itself seems to be rather old even having a crack in its glass. “Welp, seems that I’ve got time, is there anything I can help you with mam?” He asks politely.

           “Um… help with what exactly?” I asked while scratching the back of my head.

           “Well you are a spirit that has not crossed the afterlife after all, and I do make it my business to help such spirits.” He answered diligently.

            “I saw you in my dreams… Why did I see you in my dreams?” I asked the more and more I remembered my dream.

             “Well dreams work in very mysterious ways madam, sadly even I cannot fully answer them.”

             “Who are you?”

             “Well I fancy myself as the Specter Inspector, but my colleague says that that is rather a dumb title to give oneself, You can just refer to me as Detective since I am the ghost detective after all.” He said putting on a very smug face as well as putting both of his hands on his waist as if it’s something to be proud of.

               “Well, sorry Detective, I have no interest in “passing on” just yet, I mean, I don’t even fully remember who I am.”

              “I see I see, one of those cases huh?”

              “Wait what?” I asked confusingly.

             “Oh yeah no that’s very common.”

             “What do you mean by common?”

            “Well upon after death spirits and ghosts have various reactions to it. Some might find their deaths so shocking that they end up repeating their death over and over again in a loop for almost all eternity. Some like me get to just wander freely and do as we please. While there are those similar to you whom have completely forgotten who they were in the first place, most of the time it’s just mostly because in some way shape or form they wished to forget their life and start a new.”

             Hearing this was still very shocking but somehow, it made sense, it gave me a level of clarity as why I am what I am.

             “How do you know all of this? I’ve been a spirit for a long time now and I never knew there were others like me and such.”

             “Well that’s because you don’t have Moodi.” He says as if that’s supposed to make sense to me.

             “Moodi?”

             “Oh pardon my partner’s rudeness and mine, Moodi be a gentleman and say hello to the lovely lady.” He says gesturing to his monocle. And without a second later the monocle starts to glow in a fiery blue hue. The flames for some reason seem to not burn and even feels as if it is rather cold.

 Emerging from the blue flames is a crow that carried on to fly around the room to then perching on the Detective’s left shoulder. “I told you for the last time! I am not your partner!” The crow complains.

 “Wait… did that crow just talk?”    

               “You have two ghosts communicating to one another as if they’re still alive and you still find that surprising?” He says in a sarcastic tone. Fair point.

               “In any case, hello madam my name is Moodi, and I am this bumbling buffoons spirit guide.” The crow declares.

               “A spirit guide?”

               “Spirit guides are tasked with guiding souls to the afterlife.” The detective answers.

              “Well why didn’t I get a spirit guide of my own?”

              “They’re mostly dispatched to the more stubborn ones, or… if their boss has other plans for said spirit in question. I just so happen to be a very stubborn detective, so Moodi’s boss sent him to me as my sort of encyclopedia for the spirit realm. And in turn I get to assists in some matters than may prove too dangerous for both mortal world and the spirit world.” The Detective exposits. “Well then miss…wait I didn’t quite catch your name.”

              “I…don’t remember, people just call me the White Lady around here.”

             “Well then miss White, are you interested with getting some of your memories back?” he asks with a a genuine eager smile on his face.

             “What? YOU COULD DO THAT?!”

             “It isn’t the first time me and Moodi have dealt with this particular case before after all. Its tricky but it is more than possible. I can’t guarantee that we can bring all of your memories back however.

             My memories…back to me? This isn’t something I can just pass up can I? But then again, he did mention that souls like me who can’t remember in the first place wanted to forget our lives. Should I still take the risk? Would I like what I’ll see? I never even knew that I wanted to even remember in the first place, I was that content with my current afterlife. But… “What do I have to do?” I say as I look at the Detective with determination.

             The Detective then looks at Moodi with Moodi reacting very violently. “No! We can’t do that again! It’s too risky.” The crow says metaphorically putting his foot down.

             “Moodi come on, have a heart besides your life wont bet in danger, it’ll be mine and hers. All you have to do is get us those two little things. Pretty please.” The Detective says teasingly and try to put on puppy dog eyes to try and convince Moodi.

             With a couple more attempts of convincing Moodi he eventually gives in and flies off somewhere to grab items needed for whatever it is we’re doing. The Detective then proceeds to float outside of the building since according to him we really should let the newly departed rest in peace. I completely forgot that we’ve had that entire conversation with a dead old lady present. We waited patiently for Moodi on the rooftop of the abandoned house I’ve been occupying.

             Some time passes and Moodi finally returns seemingly very worn out and tired. “Here you go I got the stones for you. That shaman just says that we owe him another favor.” Moodi says while panting.

            “No worries we can always manage his favors.” the detective proclaims. Out of being tired from his long flight he returns to being the Detective’s monocle.

            “What are those?” I ask pointing towards two round stones with some cracks that glow a strange yet ethereal orange hue.

            “These stones will allow us to venture to the spirit world. Since being ghosts the moment we step into the spirit world its virtually impossible for us to return to the mortal plane on our own accord basically trapping us there forever, so these stones basically allow us to make a free round trip there.” The Detective explains.

            “Why do we need to go to the spirit world for my memories?”

           “One way or another, we souls are connected to the spirit world. Until now no one can properly explain that realm but, one thing is for certain, that realm can also provide a soul clarity and show them memories of their past.” He explains.

            “So what do we do?”

           “We swallow them.” He says with a blank smile on his face.

           “Wait what?”

         “Yup, we swallow them, it just tastes like rock don’t worry. Once we get out of the spirit realm it leaves our bodies as well.” He explains.

           He then leads me back inside the house and instructs me to stand in front of a mirror. He mentions that mirrors are a good easy portal to get in the spirit world. As I try my best and swallowed the stone with the orange glow being seen visible through my pale skin on my chest and even through my white dress, similar to the Detective I can see the orange glow though his shirt and necktie. “Ready?” The Detective asks.

          “No.” I answer frankly, yet I took a deep breath and stepped right in through the mirror being followed by the Detective.

          As we enter the spirit world I was introduced to a world of spiraling and colorful skies, no clouds can be seen is just endless beautiful colors as if we were in a Vincent van Gogh painting itself. The floors were just stone and yet from a far I see multiple stairways and stone paths being formed, until I noticed that underneath the very stone floors that I was standing on that it was just merely floating in mid air. As I look back up I saw the detective leaving me behind and just walking straight and wherever he walked new paths form to give him footing as so he won’t fall to the endless abyss below.

          Continuously looking around I see some figures on the distance. “Detective what are those?” I ask.

          “Lost souls.” He answered straightforwardly

          Getting a better look at them they’re just faceless humanoid shape beings, very tall and malnourished, their bodies almost seeming transparent. “How did they get that way?”

          “You’ll find out soon if you don’t find whatever it is you’re looking for.” He answered in a more serious and slightly angry tone.

          “I mean, isn’t that why you’re here to help me?” I asked confusingly.

          “Who said that?” The Detective says while looking at me straight in the eyes with his almost dead expression.

          “You did! What’s wrong with you?! Is this place somehow affecting you?!” I asked in a very panicked and confused tone.

          “No, I don’t think so I just think it’s rather dumb that you went straight to trusting someone to dragging you to what is essentially hell without a shadow of a doubt.” He said in a very calm manner with sinister grin on his face as I saw behind him that some of the lost souls are practically running and crawling fast towards us. The Detective takes out his pocket watch and looks at it shortly. “Looks like you’re time’s up,” He said in a very monotone voice and a soulless stare right into my eyes. “I think you should run.” Those were the last words I heard I was practically booking it to somewhere else.

             I can’t believe how stupid I am, he’s right I just met that man today and I trusted him this much to the point where he dragged me to a place I don’t even know. All I can think about now is how to escape, how to get away from this place, how to survive. That’s all I’ve been doing recently just surviving really…not even living anymore. Maybe… that’s what I also did when I was alive. Maybe I didn’t have a life to begin with just trying to get by day by day, that probably isn’t a life worth living now that I think about it. I guess even in death…I’m still this sad and pitiful.    

            As I kept moving instead of just the stone path forming from my every step, I saw wooden planks and other materials form in front of my eyes. Before I knew it an entire house was built right in front of me. This house is a rather old one, with it’s very pastel orange wall exterior to the brownish bronze looking paint for the gate, yet I feel somewhat at ease here, I feel as though I can be safe here. Without a second though I rush inside this home and I was greeted with a warm light from the ceiling of the living room. The television was on playing my favorite cartoon…wait…I had a favorite cartoon? As I kept walking around I saw the dining area with a table as well as four chairs for each side, on top of the table is just food that I can just already taste from a far, food that I love. Could this…could this be my home? While looking around more and more emotions come flooding in. I still can’t remember but the feelings of it is strong, I desperately want to remember more but I just cant I want to see what all these emotions mean and what they’re tied to! Please! Please show me anything! I want to at least know why these feeling make me feel so! I’m begging anyone just please show me who I was! As if life wants to keep playing its cruel joke on me bursting out the floor boards and the door itself, more lost souls trying to get me enters the house. From their speedy chase they gave me earlier now they were taking their meticulous time almost stalking me, their prey. As I was slowly walking back away from them out of fear that if I make any fast or sudden movements that that would be the end of me and that they would follow suit and rush me and finally end my afterlife. As I was continuously walk back stairs form behind me, this house has a second floor and on said floor I hear…laughter. Without a second to waste someone came barging in basically entering the house with a flying kick tackling a majority of the lost souls. To my surprise it was none other than the Detective himself. “Hey you found it! Good job!” He says with a dumb looking happy grin across his face giving me a thumbs up.

            “What are you doing!?” I asked confused.

            “Well I’ll explain all that later but right now I think you’re needed elsewhere Miss White.” He says as he grabs the nearest wooden chair from the dining table and readies it like a weapon looking down at the horde of lost souls.

            At this point I am just so genuinely confused, but if I were to take his words seriously then he’s right I need to go up there and see what I’m missing! I rush towards up the stairs to see a bunch of doors being made right in front of me from the colorful abyss. One by one I check these doors but they were just regular rooms, I’m assuming one room was probably my parent’s room while the other was just the bathroom. Yet each of those rooms didn’t have the sound of laughter at all. I continue to run down this hallways that was being made on the spot until I reach a door slightly already opened. As I reach this door I slowed my pace, from this distance alone I can barely hear the Detective continuing to try and fight off the horde from below. For some reason…I was outright scared what am I about to see beyond this door? I take a deep breath, I managed to get this far I need to see this through.

            As I walk in the room there was almost nothing inside of it, it was just a dark empty room. Until, a spotlight from the ceiling lights up to show a singular teddy bear sitting in the middle of this dark room. Not gonna lie this entire set up is sketchy as fuck, but… I try to walk closer to the teddy bear until all of a sudden I heard someone running behind me, as they run pass by me they immediately swoop in and tackle this teddy bear for a hug. The moment this person hugged the teddy bear the entire room was filled with light, and all I saw is a child’s room. And there smack dabbed in the middle is a little girl hugging her teddy bear tightly. “I’m back home Mrs. Sarah!” She gleefully announces to this toy. “I can’t wait to tell you how fun school was today!” She continuous in a very excited and eager expression.

           “Vanessa! Come back down here and take a shower first!” a voice lovingly yelled coming from down stairs.

           “Okay mama!” This little girl replies. “I’ll be back again Mrs.Sarah.”

          Looking at her closely…this was me, I was this little brown haired girl. I was… so happy back then. Looking at this…this was my first recollection of my memories. Tears start flowing from my eyes, this was more than I expected, even with just this little memory… It’s proof that I was happy and that to some degree I lived a somewhat happy life. As the young me leaves the room I look back at the teddy bear who was just standing again the middle of the room, looking up to me and then he stretches out his arms telling me he wants a hug. Without holding back anymore I hugged this toy like there was no tomorrow and cried like the little girl I was back then.

          After some time passed I walked backed down the stairs while holding Mrs. Sarah by her hands. I was then met by the now worn out Detective, sitting on top of a pile of lost souls. I saw his bowler hat by the window, his brown coat by the floor all messy. His red necktie now very loose, his sleeves rolled up and I can see how battered and bruised he was with some green blood dripping from his mouth. “I see you found what you were looking for.” He said in a gleeful tone still sporting that dumb happy grin on his face.  

         “Don’t you think you owe me an explanation?” I said sternly.

         “Oh this? We don’t bleed per say the green stuff is just ectoplasm.” He jokingly answered.

         I immediately smack him over the head with my teddy bear. “Not that you idiot! To what happened before!”

           “Oh that? Well from my last similar case, hunting down for memories in the spirit realm can take a lot of time, I found out that to make it faster the individual in question needed to feel a sense of desperation. Because that way their souls and their hearts would be searching for a safe place, and I reckon a childhood home would be a souls safest place.”

            “I see, so you didn’t mean any of what you said earlier?”

            “Nope, not at all. I am very sorry for that. The stones will swallow don’t last very long so we don’t have years to look for your memories. I hope you can forgive me.” The Detective genuinely asks. I then start to hug him very tightly.

            “Thank you.”

            Moodi then came flying inside the room from the front door. “Time’s almost up you too we better hurry.”

           “Ready to leave?: The Detective asks as I take one last look around the house.

           “Yes.”

         As we get back to the mortal world me and the Detective immediately started puking until the stones we originally swallowed were out of our systems. “Yeah sorry that happens when you come back.” The Detective jokingly says. “Now what do you wish to do Miss White?”

          “It’s not Miss White anymore Detective.” I said confidently while hugging Mrs. Sarah. “It’s Vanessa, Vanessa Amaryllis.”

“The Scarlet Merchant” Report 01:  See No Evil

  Another day…

            The good old WasteZones, many have forgotten how it came to this but, right now? I don’t think anyone really gives a shit. As I get out of bed I was greeted by the realization that I really need to clean this place up, just dust everywhere covering the old brown wooden floors as well as on this loud ass creaking bed. I shrug the thoughts away and carried on my day. As I pick up my uniform I then look back at the mirror behind me and see… them, I hate looking at them and I think that will never change. I get ready and head down stairs to open up shop. Buttoned up my collar up to my mouth and tied my gray hair into a pony tail.

 I sat down at the front desk and just read my to do list for the day, mostly empty apart from making one delivery this afternoon. I spent most of my morning practically doing nothing just reading some comics and occasionally cleaning some of the merchandise.

 While nearing the hour of the delivery a group covered in purple and black robes came inside the store. “Great its the Tongues” I thought to myself, I mean to be honest who else would wear very flashy garments like these in the WasteZones? … Okay that is a bit hypocritical since I’m over here wearing something impractical and blinding red.

 These guys are usually the type of crowd you shouldn’t mess with, or at least that was back then. Now people just typically see them as edge lords and nerds trying to re summon one of the eldritch gods that came to earth during the “Collapse”.

 “Welcome to the Say No Evil Gun Store, what can your humble merchant for today do for you my slimy spooky companions?” I ask teasingly.

 Whilst completely ignoring my jab at them the three robed individuals answer in unison. “We require these armaments merchant.” they say as they hand me a note that mostly consists of the amount of AK-47’s that they want to buy.

 “Um…you guys sure you need 75 AK-47s? That’s a pretty big order not gonna lie.” I say as I scratch the back of my head thinking how much effort and work I have to do packing this shit.

 “Yes merchant, it is of the upmost importance, for you see we need this equipment for-”

 “Nope nope nope! My friends, I don’t give a rat’s ass as to why you need it so don’t even try to start monologuing about your dumb dark crusade that’ll just end up in all of your members dying.” I say as I cut the three amigos’ stupid gimmicky speech. “Look, if you idiots can pay then fine.” I write down behind the paper note they gave to me the cost of the guns and delivery fee. “Just 255 high school love letters, 75 intact shed scales of giant radioactive mutated anacondas, and a tree branch struck by lightning.”

 “Such a hefty price, but this can be satiated. You have a deal merchant.” They say as they gave me another note as to where to deliver the goods and then they walked in unison towards the front door to leave.

 Ugh, great just more work! Amazing, I begrudgingly started getting the guns and packing them into multiple crates. I just plan to deliver these along with my other planned delivery later. As time passes I got everything in the crates and loaded them on to the back of my truck and head my way.

 As I make my way towards the drop off point, I bore witness to just a bunch of Tongues members out in this desert field drawing with what seems to be salt and what I can just assume to be blood as paint and just drawing some weird magic circle on the ground.

 As I step out of the truck I saw them preparing the payments, I immediately went to the back of my truck and open it to get the crates of AK-47’s. while I was dropping the crates one by one off of the truck the same three cultist approached the back of the truck and spoke to me. “Are these all in order?” they ask in unison. As I was putting down the last crate I took out my clipboard signing my name on a piece of paper with check boxes that states that the cargo has been checked and been verified to be complete.           “You can check it yourselves on the other half where there are empty check boxes just to double check, if all seems to be according to your liking just sign on the other blank on the bottom right corner, doesn’t matter which one of you signs.” I proclaim.

  After some time passes they appear to be very meticulous, opening every single crate making sure there isn’t one missing gun, they also grab some of the guns and start saying chants on it as well as showering it with something similar to salt. I really don’t care what they do with them as long as they pay properly. They return the clipboard to me checking all the requirements and proceeded to bring me their payments, I just simply told them to please haul it inside the truck themselves. After checking if their payments are in order all I told them was thank you for their humble patronage and proceeded to go on ahead in my truck and headed to my scheduled delivery.

 Despite being the usually bumpy and sanded roads of the WasteZones I made it to my next destination no problem. As I step out of my truck I was face to face of this giant compound in front of me, this being where the “Crusaders” train their new recruits, Crusaders being the last line of defense as well as the last sense of order and justice here in the WasteZones, led by one of the “Barons” the Chief of the Crusaders. I was greeted by a familiar face, “JawLaw! Thank you for coming.” Captain Darren says. Along with what seems to be a fresh new recruit.          “Well hello there captain, always a pleasure. I have the 90 M-16’s you guys ordered.”

 “Good just right on time, we also have the 400 mutant spider eyes, 55 coils of copper wire, and a tongue from a cannibalistic goat.”

 As we were having our papers and the supplies in order I can’t help but notice that the new recruit was just eyeing me with daggers. “Can I help you with anything” I said as I turned around and ask him directly.

 “...What is wrong with you?” he asked in a violent tone.

 “You have to be more clear than that bud.” I say teasingly.

 “Oneil stand down.” Captain Darren proclaims.

 “I’m sorry captain but its just…how can anyone sell weapons of murder knowing someone will die at the end of it whilst still being this happy and care free? Is there something broken inside of you?!” a genuine question that this brave little recruit asks me.

 “Perhaps there is something wrong in me, something very demented. But, you have to understand what world we live in boy. And besides, I’m not the one pulling the trigger now am I?” I proclaimed steadfast.

 After the debate Captain Darren proceeded to have the young recruit to be sent to the locker area to cool his head off. “I’m very sorry about that JawLaw.” he apologized genuinely.

 “It’s all good Captain, I know how it is. Just a young upstart in your place basically. Thinking that they can fix this world with old fashioned hopes and dreams. A very dangerous mindset out here in the WasteZones.”

 “Agreed, he just finished his basic training and this will be his first rodeo, I think after tonights raid he’ll see things in a new light.”           “For his sake, it better happen fast.” I say as we then continue on working out the supplies.

 As I was about to leave since everything has been take care of I asked the friendly Captain one other thing. “So what raid are you guys doing exactly?”

 “Oh, according to our intel the Tongues are preparing a summoning ritual later this evening. So I’m setting a raiding party to stop them.” he says.

 “Oh, I see.” As I say thinking to myself, great I guess I’m gonna go home late today. And with that I leave the Crusader compound. Whilst I was driving I was looking for a good spot to park for the night.

 As time passes I get on top of my truck and just stare at the evening sky.

 Oh how I’ve missed being up there. I thought to myself. How envious I am of the birds that can be so free and not bounded by this hell hole we call life down here on earth. There has to be something else worth more, something fun to do with my life than just trying to get by everyday.

 As I continue having deep thoughts to myself the fireworks started. The loud bangs and explosions echo throughout across the sky, various voices yelling and screaming, savoring their lives till the last minute. Both sides believing their own values to the point of dying for it. Is that what this world has to offer? I hope not.

            The explosions and loud bangs as well as the screaming have died down now. I got off of my truck and proceeded to walk down the cliff side to what is now a grave yard massacre site of both Tongues and Crusader members.

            I saw the previous blood drawn magic circle now ruined and smudged and scattered everywhere. It seems that the overwhelming number of the Crusaders has claimed victory over this deranged cult, but alas they too suffered huge injuries. Seeing some of the Crusaders limping or crawling on the ground bloodied trying to get back to their vehicles to go back to base. From a far I see Captain Darren as well leaving this wide land coffin that now reeks of the putrid smell of death, on to his side he is helping the same new recruit walk by carrying his right arm over his shoulder.

           As I finally reach the bottom i pulled out my UV flashlight from one of my belt pockets and analyzed each firearm out in the field to see if they had the “Say No Evil” gun store logo. I then collected those firearms that bore the logo and hauled them back to my truck. After doing this for the entire night I left the area and head back home.

Foretell Chapter 7:  Wither

           As Connor Price enters his abode, he pretends he doesn’t know that there are no intruders in his home. “Hmm… I guess I forgot to turn off the lights this morning.” He says loudly with a smirk on his face. Connor tries to act nonchalantly and closes the front door and locks it. He then dropped his car keys on a tiny key bowl on top of a table next to the front door, he proceeds to drop his bag on the couch, he walks around the first floor calmly scanning the area seeing if any of the two boys are hiding nearby. Connor then claps his hand s twice and the fire place automatically lit up, he walks on top of the carpet and kneels down to take the carpet of the secret compartment, as he opens it and sees that the flower is nowhere in there his face visibly shows that he’s in rage by the fact. It took him a few minutes to breathe in and breathe out as to not show his potential audience of his distress. Connor prepares himself to go and find the two boys upstairs and only then did he noticed that he’s missing a kitchen knife.

          Meanwhile, the two boys were hiding in the bathroom with Sebastian holding the knife pointed towards the lock bathroom door being prepared if ever Connor Price enters the room, while Simon tries to open the bathroom window to see if they can jump from it. “Well any luck?” Sebastian asks.

          “It’s really locked, I can’t risk breaking the glass, but either way I don’t think we can make that jump.” Simon declares.

          “Shush!” Sebastian warns Simon as he hears footsteps climbing up the stairs. A few moments later the footsteps get nearer and nearer the bathroom door, it reaches the point that Sebastian can see the shadow of Connor Price from under the door.  

           The two boys prepare themselves for the inevitable of their adversary forcing his way in and attacking the two. Connor Price slowly turns the knob of the bathroom door to his absolute pleasure he discovers that the bathroom door is locked, “Oh boys, I know you’re in there, we can either do this the hard way or the easy way.” As he says that the two boys don’t reply and try their best to breathe calmly. “Oh, the hard way then? Thank you this will be even more fun!” As he yells that Connor Price proceeds to charge at the locked door multiple times, each time he charges at the door the stronger it gets.

          “Now what?!” Simon asks in a panicked tone.

          “I’M COMING IN BOYS!” Connor Price declares as he continuous bashing on the door.

          “Just follow my lead!” Sebastian declares.

          As Connor Price continuous his violent assault at the door trying to force it open, Sebastian waited for his opportunity to execute his plan. As Sebastian heard Connor Price’s hit on the door he then listens to Connor Price walking back slowly, preparing for another running charge at the door. Sebastian motions to Simon to get out of the bath tub and get on top of the bathroom sink, as Simon does this Sebastian then immediately opens the door as soon as Connor Price charges one more time, leading to Connor going head first straight to the bath tub. The two boys then proceed to make a break for it and run outside. Sadly, against the boys’ favor Connor Price wasn’t knocked out and recuperated immediately and chases the two down.

          Jumping most of the way down the stairs the two boys try to reach for the door, as Sebastian attempts to open the door to his dismay the door was already locked. As he looks Connor Price came running down and immediately attacks Simon, Connor Price now has both of his hands around Simon’s throat and tightly squeezing it. Simon attempts to break free in any way he can, He attempts to forcefully break Connor Price’s grip around his neck, he tries to kick the man off, punching his stomach, and even tried to use his thumbs to injure Connor’s eyes, all futile however since whenever Simon tries anything Connor’s grip around Simon’s throat just gets tighter and tighter. Simon is now practically begging for air, Simon blacks in and out of reality, fighting his urges to pass out. As Sebastian sees this he quickly attacks the tall man and proceeds to stab Connor Price with the kitchen knife behind his back, Sebastian manages to stab Connor three times, after letting out screams of sharp pain at the third stab Connor back hands Sebastian freeing Simon of his desperate fight for air. Being struck so suddenly Sebastian lost his grip on the knife and left it on Connor’s back.

           Struggling to take out the knife behind his back, Connor is grunting and squirming in pain until he eventually manages to pull out the knife and tosses it aside. “Not bad kid, but I won’t be needing that to finish you off, I want to do this slowly and savor every minute of this!” Connor’s threat towards Sebastian.

            Connor then proceeds to punch Sebastian numerous times, and knees Sebastian’s stomach, this carries on with a one sided pummeling of Connor just beating up Sebastian. Connor then proceeds to grab Sebastian’s bag and pushes Sebastian aside. Now with a bloody nose and spitting out blood Sebastian tries to gather his thoughts and breath properly. Meanwhile, Simon manages to finally catch his breath and calmly inhales and exhales as he sees that Connor Price now has brought out the airtight bag that is containing the flower and is now holding it in his right hand. Simon then goes and runs toward the knife that was tossed earlier and grabs it, he proceeds to make a beeline toward Connor Price, but instead of stabbing him like Sebastian did he instead went for the bag and tried to take it off of Connor’s hand. “And what do you think you’re doing?” Connor says as he has this gleeful insane look to his eyes and his fiendish smile.

               Now with the plastic bag being pulled and stretch by the two individuals, Simon proceeds to cut the bag in half and he grabs the half with the flowers, “This!” Simon shouts, as he then shoves the now free and exposed flowers straight to the face of Connor Price. The force of Simon’s charge at Connor end up with the two falling on to the ground with Simon on top of Connor who is still pressing the flowers directly on Connor’s face.

                Trying his hardest to get the boy off of him, with all his strength Connor kicks Simon off on top of him. “Do you know what you’ve just done?!!!” Connor’s panicked scream towards Simon.

               “How did you even fucking know about this flower!!!???” Connor asks.

               Simon is just staring at Connor scared and frozen, despite knowing how the flower works and how dangerous it is he completely ignored the fact that he just sentenced Connor Price to death. Simon braces for the madness and hell he is about to witness. No matter how horrid things get Simon knew deep down inside he needed to see this through.

                Connor then panics, now with his heart racing he tries everything he can to try and escape his fate. He runs towards the kitchen sink and washes his face thinking that maybe the effects of the flower can be washed away, he then looks at his refrigerator that has a very reflective door he notices the madness creeping in, all his sees are his eyes completely red, Connor Price no longer sees his own handsome self in the reflection, all he sees is this old perversion of himself, one he truly hates. Connor Price then proceeded to bash his head against the refrigerator door begging and crying for the image he sees to go away! Now bleeding from the forehead he takes one more look at the almost cracked refrigerator door and all he can do is laugh hysterically. Connor attempts to claw his face off with his own hands, he manages to scream in agony in laugh in pure joy at the same time. Only one sane thought crosses Connor’s mind… Connor Price heads to the fire place and… shoves his entire head in it burning his entire head while he’s still alive. Simon could no longer make out what Connor Price is feeling somehow his screams of pain had hints of pleasure in it. Simon wanted this madness to stop, but he couldn’t look away until ultimately… Connor Price’s body goes limp now with his head still in the fire place just roasting.

              Simon is filled with mixed feelings, he’s glad that everything is over but at what cost? Simon then goes to Sebastian to help him up, “You okay?” Simon asks.

             “I think I’ll be alright an icepack would be nice though.” Sebastian jokingly says.

             “Come on let’s go home.” Simon says. As the two leave the house they look back to see at the now dead body of Connor Price for one last time.

             The two despite sustaining injuries rode on their bicycles and went back home. On their way there Sebastian stops at a phone booth and calls the police as an anonymous caller to tell them of a noise disturbance near the property of Connor Price.

             As the two boy made it to their home all the two wanted was rest, they both went their separate ways and went to their bedrooms to sleep without eating dinner or even taking a shower.

             Hours passed and the two are now in deep sleep.

             Simon opens his eyes to now see that he is in the middle of a grassy hill with no cursed flower in sight, as he turns around he sees the woman who was the victim of Connor Price, but this time she looks normal, no hint of her madness anywhere. She has now fully returned to the way she was and instead of wearing a red dress she’s wearing a white one, the expression on her face is one of pure genuine joy. She then makes her way to Simon and hugs him along with tears in her eyes saying “Thank you.” A strong gust of wind hits the two and Ellaine says one final good bye to Simon and like flower petals her body scatters and gets blown by the wind. Simon knew that that was the last time he’ll ever see her again and he’s glad that this entire nightmare was over for the both of them.

              Simon Cross slept soundly that night.

Foretell Chapter 6: Dying Flower

Pedaling as fast as they can the two rushed to where Connor Price lives. Making good use of the traffic to their advantage assuring that they'll be there first before the man gets home. Going as fast and reckless as they can almost getting into an accident. As if the world knew the perfect scene of what's going to happen it started raining heavily making the two boys' route even more difficult. As they pass by this part of town they noticed that all the neighboring houses seem for more high class people compared to where Simon and some of his other friends lived in, this part of town is uptown, Vicky and the twins are the ones living around this place. Even from where the two boys are cycling in they can clearly see the huge mansion where the twins live in.

Simon didn't have time to think about the beautiful mansion though, his mind is fixated on one thing and one thing only and it's to end this nightmare of his.

As what it feels like to be forever the two of them finally made it to Connor Price's house. The both of them were still a bit surprised of how fancy and modern his house is comparing it to other houses neighboring it, Simon and Sebastian had a quiet agreement that it was the second best house they've seen first being The Vale's house and while certainly big Sebastian's house is in desperate need of repair and new furniture.

"Well we finally made it, now what exactly are you gonna do again?" Simon asked.

"Let me handle it don't just be my look out." Sebastian proclaimed.

"Look out for what?"

"Look out for any nosy neighbors."

While Simon was looking around making sure no on was looking Sebastian kneels down in front of the door and puts his bag down and as he opens it he then takes out two small metal items with one being in an "L" shape while the other is a straight piece of metal. "What are those?" Simon asked. "Well if you were stuck in a house filled with locked doors you tend to be creative and pick up some neat tricks." Said Sebastian with a bit boasting and gloating in his tone. Simon was then surprised as if a piece of a mystery was solve now, even he was wondering about the other multitude of rooms he hasn't entered yet in Sebastian's home and now Simon knew that even Sebastian himself doesn't know what's inside some of those rooms, and that Sebastian wasn't the one who locked them, now a new question arose, who locked them in the first place? Simon knows that Sebastian doesn't share a lot about him but multiple locked rooms that Sebastian doesn't know about that kept bugging Simon's mind, more and more questions popped up one of them being where has Sebastian's father been? Simon only met the man once when they were kids and that was the last of it. Simon stopped this train of thought and told himself that there are more pressing matters to attend to rather than thinking about the living conditions of Sebastian.

While a few minutes passed Simon heard a click sound coming from the door, as Simon turned to look at Sebastian he gave Simon the thumbs up.

As the two enter Sebastian opened and closed the door behind them and immediately scanned the corners of the ceiling and looked around the walls for a good amount of time and with a sigh of relief  Sebastian gladly told Simon that they were lucky and despite Mr. Connor Price being a wealthy man he doesn't seem to have any security measures present. Hearing this good news Simon didn't waste any time and started going all over the place in search of the flower.

The first floor of the house was very impressive giving such a modern vibe from the interior design. From the walls and the chosen furniture the place was sporting a black and white motif. In the living room the first eye catching thing was the huge flat screen T.V. that is directly in front of the coziest  couch Simon has ever seen and beside are two black lamps, behind the couch and the lamps is a white wall with a painting hanging on it, the painting was a black splat on a white canvas, Simon wondered how much it costs and wondered why would anyone buy something that looks so simple. The floor was made up of black tiles and a huge white rug that was on top of it. On the center piece of the living room was a clear glass table. Going over the living room was the kitchen, the kitchen looked pristine and very high end although there were no hints of the kitchen being actually used as if the kitchen was only for display and not used for functional purposes.

Beside the kitchen was the stairs leading up to the second floor where a long hallway with a black floor and white walls instantly greeted Simon. Sebastian was already there and all he found was the bathroom with a bathtub, a room that seems to be a guess room, and the master bedroom.

As Simon enters the master bedroom he was greeted by a ginormous bed and two drawers beside it, while next to the door there was table with items or toys that are meant for promiscuous occasions. Simon tried his best to avoid looking at those cause he doesn't want to know where those have been in. He looks under the bed and inside the closet in a corner of the room but to no avail. He then decided to check the other remaining rooms. the bathroom is so clean that it looks like a model in a doll house and yet again the flower is nowhere in sight. He then went in the guess room, it looks pretty plain compared to the entire home, this room looks the most normal out of every room.

Simon did one last check on the second floor and finally decided to give up and go search on the first floor. As Simon went down he saw Sebastian quietly searching as well which also meant Sebastian's hasn't found the flower either.

They both almost looked everywhere now from under the couch cushions, in the refrigerator, inside an oven, and even behind the T.V, but nothing! They found nothing! They couldn't find that flower. As all seems lost Simon drops down on his knees out of desperation and frustration, he was getting tired, he was losing hope, he slowly thought to himself maybe he was in over his head putting him and his bestfriend in severe trouble, he even thought to himself that he might be going crazy and that there isn't even a flower to begin with. Until... a whisper... Simon heard an incoherent whisper coming from somewhere in the living room.

Simon thought that this was it he was one hundred percent going crazy and he pounded on the floor to try and mute out the whispers with the loud banging he's making, Sebastian then ran towards Simon and forcibly stopped him from banging any further cause he was making too much noise. As Sebastian tackled Simon to the ground to stop, silence fell on the room. "PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER!" A silent scream made by Sebastian towards Simon.

"I don't know what to do anymore Sebastian." Simon's tired reply.

"We'll find it don't worry. If anyone is going to find that damn flower it's gonna be you. Now quit it!"

"Well it isn't my fault that the floor makes a loud sound when I hit it!"

"..."

"..."

"It's a hollow floor!" The two shouted at the same time with glee then they quickly shutted each others mouth to stop the scream midway. They then stood up and removed the white carpet on the floor, they shined both of their flash lights on the black floor only to reveal a small rectangular wooden door with a ring handle on it. The wooden door was way too small to be used as an entrance that leads to a passage leading further down, Sebastian concluded that it must be just a secret compartment that might be holding the flower.

The two boys were overjoyed. As they opened the door Simon's joy was completely replaced with fear. Simon felt his stomach about to burst, he wanted to cry out, all this time struggling to find the flower he completely forgot what the flower was meant for. Flowers are supposed to represent beauty, but not this one, in Simon's eyes this flower is hideous.

The two boys saw a violet flower that almost seemed luminescent. As far as the plant knowledge between Simon and Sebastian are concerned this doesn't appear to be any known flower, as if it almost appears to be alien in nature. The flower was wrapped in what appears to be a transparent air tight bag. Still the two boys didn't want to risk anything to chance so they wore basic medical masks, knowing full well that this wont probably stop the flowers effects fully but it'll still be a safe precaution. The two of them then picked up the flower and decided to put it in Sebastian's bag carefully and trying not to puncture a hole in its containment. As they zip up the bag they closed the door and put the carpet back to its proper position.

The two of them then nodded to each other and went towards the front door. As they made their way the door a pair of lights came rushing to the drive walk. Simon and Sebastian's heart sank! It was him! It was Connor Price! The two boys panicked at first then Sebastian told Simon that they should go upstairs and hide in the master bedroom. As the two boys rushed upstairs Sebastian quickly went first to the kitchen and grabbed a knife.

Foretell Chapter 5: Bloom of Insanity

I like when things just go my way. Everyone following my lead. I always get whatever I want.

While I was at work I saw this lovely woman, she worked for me as a secretary. She was ravishing any man would go crazy for her, any man would drool all over the floor by just the mere sight of her. I wanted her to be mine. We started flirting with each other, she was clearly a slut to begin with, she loved every minute of it. She loved the attention and the affection that I kept on giving her.

It didn't take too long before we were messing around on her bedroom. Till night and morning just pure ecstasy. I can see it in her eyes she needed me, she was addicted to me or so I thought.

One day when I was walking down the street I saw her in the arms of another man. She was looking at him like she looked at me. She was a whore nothing more nothing less.

I made her think that I didn't know anything, I made her believe that I still consider he to be mine. I wanted the bitch to die. It's not like I haven't killed anyone before, but I didn't want to dirty my hands over such a minor problem. I needed an alternate way for the bitch to pay, something worst than just death.

I received a package on my doorstep, on it was a note filled with instructions, saying things like.

1.Do not open without a mask to cover your face. 2.This item is very potent and lethal. 3.Only use it to someone you absolutely hate and want dead.

I didn't want to take any chances so I did as I was instructed to do. I found a medical mask to cover my face with and opened the package outside. As I opened it it was just a measly flower. I luaghed at the thought of this flower being actually deadly but I still didn't take any chances I threw it out on the garbage bin outside my house and that was the end of it.

In the middle of the night as I was sleeping I heard a noise coming from outside. As I quickly go down stairs and out the door I saw a very surprising scene. It was a rat eating a cat. I saw the flower that I threw on the garbage laying down on the floor. The rat was mercilessly devouring the stray cat.

I took the flower and the rat back home. I put the rat inside a see through container. The rat was clearly agitating shaking and scratching every inch of the box. I found another rat and put it inside the same box the crazed rat is in. Without a second thought the rat that was going crazy attacked its fellow rat, it struck the other rats neck and snapped it before repeating the scene that I saw with the cat.

I was dumb founded at what I was witnessing. It has been only a few hours and the rat was so agitated that in the end it just killed itself by snapping its own back. I was so thrilled for some reason my heart pumped like never before, I needed to witness such a thing again, my mind went straight to her, like the others  say this is killing two birds with one stone.

So I used the postal service that I was currently managing in to send her the flower. The thought made me so intoxicated, sadly I can't be there when she receives it I'll just have to take the flower back once the deed has been done. Still what would happen when she receives it, just the mere thought of it is ecstacy to me. Once work was over I would go straight to her apartment room 206.

I saw everything, how mangled she was, how broken I made her and that it was because of me that she has experienced this pain, this horrid sight was my doing. I took pictures of her body before I took the flower and put it inside a container. I left the room feeling so accomplished, I have never felt like that before. I needed to keep going I don't want to end it here.

I spent the next few days plotting, thinking who would I kill next with this flower? As I went to work I ordinarily thought that today would be any other day until I was greeted by two boys. They asked me about her! I thought I got away with it. The boy with black hair was clearly lying to my face. Those two know something, I don't know how but they know something. I panicked I made a stupid mistake of giving them my business card, I shouldn't have done that.

I was overly pissed someone was on to me, I had no choice I needed to destroy the flower. As much as I didn't want to I have to.

As soon as it was time to leave I headed straight for my car. I need to go home and burn the flower. To add to my problems it was traffic. As I was waiting on the road I saw the two boys on their bicycles headed for the direction of my house, my address was written on my business card so they must be already headed there.

As I arrive at my place, guess who's already there?

Chapter 4: Source of Madness

Simon woke up on a bed. As he sat up he touched his forehead and to his surprise the third eye was no longer there. Sebastian came in the room, he saw Simon finally awake.

"Thank Christ you're awake!" Sebastian exclaimed.

"How long was I out?"

"Three days!"

"I was asleep for three days?!"

"I guess using that third eye of yours for the first time really took its toll on your body."

"I still don't even know how I did that."

"Was that the first time that happened?"

"Yeah it was. I seriously don't know what's happening to me."

"Well right now we have three problems."

"And those are?"

"Well the first one would be the fact that you've missed class three days straight."

"What did the others say?"

"They all still think that you're still getting over some family issues and that you should take your time."

"I think that's best. We shouldn't tell them about... all this weirdness."

"Agreed, the second one would be the flower that makes people crazy and the third one would be your third eye syndrome."

"I'll figure out my third eye problem some other time right now we need to figure out what's up with that flower."

"Yeah okay, but why do you want to figure that out exactly? You know that I'm into this stuff but why do you feel obligated to find this out? We are dealing with a flower that can cause people to go insane that's not something teens like us should do, right?"

"I don't know exactly, but I saw her in my dream for a reason and maybe if we figure this out I can also figure out what's up with my third eye."

"Okay good answer because I really don't have anything better to do and my brain filled with useless occult stuff can actually be put to good use." Sebastian laughs.

"Did you find the box in the room that contained the flower?"

"Nope, but I did figure out what Night Shore Postal Service is. It's an old postal company that runs here in Owl Valley, but since the internet no one from our age group knows about it that much, but apparently their business is still booming."

"So do they still conduct business here in Owl Valley?."

"Yup and they are also currently owned by a company named the Weaver Corporation. They own a lot of other businesses just to spread their brand I guess."

"Okay great anything else?"

"Regarding the flower itself I found something interesting. Apparently there was this legend in Owl Valley, in the old days a king from a foreign land wanted to conquer  our lands, the village witch concocted a potion that causes madness because why not? She gave it to a servant of a king that despises him, the servant watered a purple flower from the kings prized garden. The king smells the flower and well you know the rest."

"Wow where did you get that info?"

"Funny story, while you were unconscious I tried reading some of my books to see if they have anything about flowers that turn people insane and I found... nothing. So I tried using the internet and again I found nothing. I went to the old public library and did some digging and I found a lot and I mean a lot of old lore regarding this town. Apparently a lot of mystical stuff has happened in this town before."

"Okay this is great, we should try to go to that Night Shore place and figure out who sent that woman the flower."

"Are you sure you don't want to rest a bit more?"

"The sooner we solve this the better!" Simon proclaimed.

"Sounds like a plan."

As Simon finally stands up from bed he immediately felt his stomach begging for food. Simon asks Sebastian what time it was, Sebastian stated it is still early morning. Simon decided too cook a good breakfast and a heavy one before they leave.

Simon asks who's room did he used while he was still in his coma? Sebastian answered that it was the guest room but now it's Simon's room since he didn't have a room here to begin with. As Simon walks down the hallway he noticed a lot of doors, he thought that since Sebastian's house is like a mansion it must have a lot of guest rooms. by the end of the hall Simon saw two stair cases one leading to the third floor while the other one leading to the first floor. They went down stairs to eat at the kitchen.

Simon walks up to the refrigerator and to his surprise it is fully stocked. Sebastian stated that he had nothing better to do since his best friend is in a coma so he just bought food just in case Simon woke up. Simon decided to make pancakes with chocolate chips in them and added maple syrup. Sebastian watched Simon cook and to Sebastian's eyes it was like watching an artist paint a canvas. Simon finished cooking, the two of them got separate stacks of pancakes both of them consisting of four pieces of pancakes each, They chowed down to their stomachs content.

As the two finish breakfast they both prepare to leave and go to the Night Shore office. Simon was wearing a purple shirt with a black broken heart printed on it, while Sebastian is wearing a black shirt with an artistic design of a zombie hand coming from the ground printed on it. They both wore jeans and sneakers. Again Sebastian brought his bag with multiple items just in case they might need it.

Before the two left Sebastian showed Simon two bicycles located around the back of the house. He said that the main office is kind of at the edge of town so they might need to use these. Simon agreed and they took the two bicycles the blue one for Simon and the red one for Sebastian.

It took them till lunch time to arrive at their destination but they finally made it. Swarms of people with suits came in and out of the huge building, Sebastian estimated that the building might be around twelve stories high. Written on a huge sign next to the building was "Weaver Corporation".  Simon went in determined he felt as though that this was the right move that once he finds out who sent those flowers to the woman everything weird going on would stop.

The two boys went up to the receptionist, they asked where the Night Shore postal service department was, they stated that they had something important to ask. The receptionist kindly tells the two boys to wait as she calls someone from that department that could be of help to them. She told them that luckily the manager of that department is free today and that he would be happy to answer their  questions.

As the two wait in the lobby, Sebastian was telling Simon about how worried Liz is about him. Simon blushes and simply said that Sebastian was lying, Sebastian laughs and as Simon turns away and not look at Sebastian because he was irritated a little bit, he saw a finely dressed man wearing a black suit with a red tie with his hair properly combed walking towards them. The man greeted the two boys and introduced himself as Connor Price, he said that he was the manager for the postal service department, the two boys greeted him as well and stood up to shake his hand, the man insisted that the two boys should just sit down and that it's not everyday that two young men asks about the postal service. The man sat down prepared for any question the two might ask.

"So boys what may I help you with today?"  Connor asked smiling.

"Well you see sir... We want to know who sent a package to a woman going by the name Ellaine." Simon said this while avoiding eye contact with the man because he was a little bit shy.

"Ellaine? do you mean Ellaine Sharp she's an employee here we met a couple of times. Why on Earth would you want to know about that?"

"She was an old friend of my mother and we were saddened by her death and we heard that she received a package coming from your business. We couldn't find the package in her apartment room so we decided to find the person that did sent it to her and ask that person what it was." Sated Sebastian.

Simon is utterly shocked that Sebastian can spew out lies this good. He kept on lying and lying with a straight face like he was pro at this. He wondered if Sebastian has ever lied to him like this before.

The man showed a look of shock in his face for a quick second, but then replaces that look with a smirk as if to say that he figured something out. The man said to wait right where they were and he'll come right back after he has checked the system for any information about the sender.

Simon and Sebastian waited for a while and the man returned. He sat down and told the boys that the system was corrupted and a lot of the files from this month were erased. The man said that he was sorry that this just had to happen today and that their system usually works properly. Finally Simon looked at the mans face in order to tell him that they're also sorry for wasting his time but then once again Simon felt a sharp pain from his head, but unlike before this pain is a little bit more lighter and Simon heard voices in his head. This voice was eerily familiar, it took Simon some time to figure it out but then it clicked in him this was the voice of Ellaine and it was saying things like "Liar, Murderer, Killer." Simon desperately tried to mute out what she was saying but Simon wondered why was she saying that. Connor asked if Simon was alright because he clearly saw that Simon was going through some pain. It took Simon a minute and then he said that he was fine and that he was sorry for wasting the mans time, they said good bye to the man and the two proceeded to leave the premises.

Sebastian asked Simon what they should do now. Simon replied with.

"He did it he killed her."

"Who did?"

"Connor Price!"

"How are you sure?"

"Just trust me, like you he was lying to us and lying to us good but I know for a fact that he's guilty of it. Because she was screaming it at me."

The two waited at a cafe in front of the building and started to create a plan.

Foretell Chapter 3: 206

Sebastian woke up to a very delicious smell coming from down stairs. As he wakes up he sat up right and outstretched  his arms along with a huge yawn, his bed is directly next to the window that can be seen from outside the house, he looks around his room. He saw a huge mirror on the wall next to the bathroom door, and he saw his cabinet wide open clearly unorganized while his clothes and a bunch of books with odd tittles ranging from "The study of the occult", "Demonology", and "Black Magic and curses" are all scattered on the floor, and on the table next  to the mirror is a broken picture as if someone has punched it. Other than that his room is completely empty. Sebastian stands up and stretches some more and walks out of his room.

Even though everyone sees Sebastian as a mysterious and eccentric person. In reality he's really a slob or in other words he just doesn't really care about his living place. Simon is the only person who knows about this, there were times when Simon does ask Sebastian about this but somehow Sebastian manages to change the topic or completely avoid answering this question, so Simon just decided to let the him be.

As Sebastian walks down the stairs he saw a pillow and a blanket properly folded on the couch, he smelled something delicious coming from the kitchen. It has been a long time since anything was cooked there, Sebastian usually orders some take out breakfast from the nearest eatery before going to school. As Sebastian walks in the kitchen he saw Simon cooking scrambled eggs.

"You're up early." Sebastian said.

" Yeah... I had another freak nightmare and I can't go back to sleep, so I ended up cooking our breakfast, lunch, and... dinner."

"That's a lot of eggs!"

"Well I could've cooked more if eggs weren't the only thing in the refrigerator."  

Sebastian simply laughs this off, but the two made an agreement to buy more food later. Sebastian and Simon both sat down and ate breakfast. Sebastian was almost bursting to tears, he hasn't tasted anything this delicious even though it's only scrambled egg it was still very delicious. Simon laughs it off and only thinks that Sebastian is only exaggerating. Sebastian notices that Simon looks very restless.

"Hey are you okay? You're not looking to good." Sebastian asks.

"About that, I think I'm going to be absent for today."

"I think it's fine for you to be absent today, but can you tell me why exactly? Are you still shocked of what happened last night? Or maybe it was the corpse that we saw yesterday? Or maybe it's these dreams you've been having?"

"I don't really care about leaving the house I've been wanting to do that anyways. The corpse yesterday however and my nightmares... I think they're connected."

"Well who wouldn't have nightmares after seeing something like that?"

"No! I think it's something more than that, Something different."

"Different how?"

"Sebastian, before we even saw the body I already dreamed of that woman."

"What are you talking about? Have you met her somewhere before?"

"No, and that's what's been bothering me. In my nightmare I saw the exact image of her corpse just laying down on the ground."

"Maybe it was a vision."

"A vision?"

" Some would say it's an experience of seeing someone or something in a dream or trance, or as a supernatural apparition."

"I forgot that you're in to that kind of stuff."

"So, what do you plan on doing about it?"

"I want to go back to the apartment complex, I want to know more about what happened, and maybe I might find the reason as to why I got that vision."

"Cool, because I'm coming with you."

"You really don't have to, just go to school."

"You're barely awake, and besides around here I'm the leading expert when it comes to these stuff."

After a few minutes of Simon trying to convince Sebastian not to come with him, he eventually gives in. Simon already knew Sebastian would act this way, and he wouldn't think of anyone else more suitable than him. For some weird reason Sebastian is really in to the occult stuff and magic, it was one of his interests or some would say it's an obsession of his.

After the two ate their breakfast Sebastian told Simon to get ready and that he'll wash the dishes since Simon was the one who already cooked. Simon was worried since he knew that Sebastian does not know how to wash the dishes, but Simon also thought that it would be good for Sebastian to practice now since he might be cooking here full time now.

The boys prepare themselves to leave. Simon is wearing a black shirt with a Batman logo printed on it along with loose jeans and a pair of black rubber shoes, while Sebastian is wearing a red shirt with an eye inside a triangle printed on it along with some skinny jeans and a pair of black sneakers. Before they left the house Sebastian brought a bag with with items he believes would be useful. After all that they finally left the house.

As the two were on their way to the crime scene they saw their friends walking towards the school. The two immediately ran and hid behind a wall so that they won't be seen by them. after a few minutes the two decided to leave the wall and move on to the apartment, as soon as they popped their heads around the corner they are immediately greeted by Rob. Rob was wearing his signature red jacket and inside it he wore a white shirt with a tutorial on how to play rock paper and scissors printed on it.

"What are you two idiots doing?" Rob asks with a straight face.

"Uh... " Simon desperately trying to think of an excuse.

"We're skipping school today." boldly stated by Sebastian. Simon is utterly shocked of how straight forward Sebastian's reply was.

Rob gave a huge sigh and said. "Be careful you two, and don't get caught."

The two simply nodded at Rob and then Rob went ahead to school, he promised not to tell the others. After he left, the two boys immediately ran to go to the apartment.

As the two of them reached their goal they saw that no one was around the complex. The two thought that they were lucky. "So where to start?" Sebastian asks. Simon scans the place and the first thing he saw was an apartment door with the numbers 206. Simon recalled his first dream and he remembered those numbers. "Let's go to that room" Simon pointed out room 206. Sebastian asked why, Simon explained that that was a part of his nightmare and that it might be the room of the woman.

They went straight ahead to the room on the second floor. They saw a police tape on the door. They carefully went in the room trying their hardest not to brake the police tape. As soon as they went inside they saw that the place was ransacked maybe due to the police looking all over the place.

After a few moments pass as Simon was scanning the place he suddenly felt  a sharp pain coming from his head. Simon suddenly went down on his knees clutching his head due to feeling so much pain. Sebastian immediately went to Simon and asked him what's going on. Sebastian saw him crying blood, Simon was screaming that it hurts when he forces his eyes to open. Simon can't open his eyes and when he does he just kept on crying out blood. Sebastian was shocked as he saw something on Simon's forehead slowly opening. Sebastian jumped away from  Simon and just stared at him out of fear. As Simon was wailing out, screaming in pain the thing on his forehead has completely opened it was another eye. Slowly but surely Simon calmed down  he stated that when he tries to open his other eyes it would sting him. Sebastian asked him what he can see. Simon said that he can still see the room but it is completely the void of color, everything was just grey.

Simon wiped away the blood on his face and stood up. He then began to walk around the room as he looks back behind him he saw his own body still standing there. He immediately asks Sebastian if he can see him, as he asks this his other bodies mouth moved the way he said it. Sebastian stated that he can see his body and that he is currently looking at it. Sebastian asks why, and Simon tells him that he can also see that body of his. He exclaims that he is currently out of his body. Sebastian immediately yelled that he was in his astral body, he explains that an astral body is a form that is used to travel the astral plane and that the astral plane is a dimension between our world and the afterlife.

"Okay I am officially freaking out right now! So you're telling me that right now I'm between the after life and our world? Just like in the movie insidious ?" Simon asks.

"If this isn't a prank  and if you're telling the truth, yeah that's what's happening right now!"

"Well what should I do now?"

"I don't know, don't ask me I'm not the guy who has a freaking third eye!"

While Simon  is in the astral plane he looks around in hopes that he'll find something out of the ordinary. He checks under the table, and nothing. He can't seem to find anything. as he stood up the table in the middle of the room has been replaced by a door. Simon asks Sebastian if he can see the door as well. Sebastian said that he couldn't, Sebastian theorizes that Simon might have an ability to alter the astral plane to whatever he desires or needs. Simon said that he's planning to go inside the door, Sebastian said that there's no harm in trying.

As Simon walks inside the door he then immediately walks in the apartment room, the door closes. The room was all fixed and not ransacked like earlier, he walks in a little further and then suddenly the door  opened again but the one who entered was the woman. It was the woman in Simon's dreams, it was the woman he saw laying flat dead on the ground.

The woman appears to have just came home from work. She was very beautiful and she was wearing a suit that clearly shows that she has a professional job. Out of nowhere a disembodied voice asked Simon what he sees, it was Sebastian talking from the physical world. Simon narrates everything he sees, except for the part where she was changing into her more casual clothing  because he didn't want to peep on a dead person.

A few moments later someone  knocked on the door. The woman approaches the door and opens it. There was no one there, all there was was a box on the floor with a letter on top of it. The woman picked up the letter first, "To my dearest Ellaine." It also had a heart shaped symbol on it. The woman bit her lip and picked up the box. The box was fairly small and it seems pretty light. As she opens the box Simon was petrified it was the flower. The violet flower that has always been present in his nightmares. Another letter was inside and in it said, "These flowers remind me of you, smell them." She bit her lip another time and she immediately smelled the flowers, she sneezes and said that the flowers didn't smell that nice. A few moments later the woman started to moan and she holds her head as to indicate that she is feeling dizzy. Then suddenly her moans changed into screams. She was feeling agonizing pain she fell to the floor and rolled all over, she tries desperately to stop the pain. Simon was afraid he had already seen this happening to her or at least she did this to him in his nightmares. The pain was no longer bearable, Simon clearly saw her quick shift to madness. It was something that no one should see more so experience. She's clearly being driven to insanity to the point where she uses her bear hands to gouge out her own eyes and she screamed even louder. Simon was already forcing himself to witness this it was very gruesome but he needed to see every detail of what happened to her. She then lies flat on the floor with her left hand on her neck and holding it tight while her right hand is outstretched upwards as if she is in need of oxygen. Slowly but surely she contorts herself, lifting her back bone to make an arch, she kept on bending her back until her back just gives in and a sharp cracking sound can be heard.

Simon was petrified and in disbelief that a plain flower can drive a person this insane, but he was currently witnessing this in his astral body so right now he believes that anything can be possible. Simon wanted to vomit all over again this was too gruesome that even his experience with horror movies fails in comparison compared to this. The door opened again and this time sucked Simon out, before Simon left he saw the box that contained the flower with a print that said Night Shore Postal Service.

Simon's third eye closes and finally Simon can open his two eyes again. He looks at Sebastian and tells him that they need to find out who sent her those flowers. Sebastian nodded as to show that he agrees with Simon. Then suddenly he just falls face first to the floor, Sebastian tried to wake him up but it was no use Simon was completely unconscious.

Foretell Chapter 2: Awakened

As he makes his way to school Simon meets up with Sebastian. Sebastian was wearing a black and red striped long sleeved shirt, while Simon on the other hand was wearing a blue shirt with a print of a cartoon turtle that has a lightning bolt on its shell with the text "I'm the fastest turtle alive." Sebastian saw Simon and waved at him.

"Morning!" Simon greets Sebastian.

"Hey! happy birthday... Are you okay? You look kinda pale." Sebastian asks.

"I had a really messed up nightmare and I really don't want to talk about it." Simon's proclamation.

"Okay then, so what do you want to cook tonight?"

"I was thinking, how about lasagna?"

"Oh yeah definitely your lasagna tastes amazing."

"Cool I'll make the list of ingredients later and we'll buy some at the store okay?"

"Sounds like a plan."

The two headed to class where they met their other friends. Vicky was wearing a Sunday dress that has floral designs and is still completely ignoring Simon. Liz is wearing a white and yellow blouse along with some jeans who also greeted Simon a happy birthday and once again Simon was red as an apple. Rob is wearing his signature red hoodie with a black shirt inside with a pac-man print on it ,he greeted the two boys and gave them both high fives. Vina was wearing a sleeveless white muscle shirt with a crow sitting on top of a skull as a design and ripped jeans, her hair is braided which gives her sex appeal a whole new level, she also has mascara on along with some leather bracelets. On the other hand her sister Rina is wearing a sweat jacket with a print of an aliens head with the text "believe" on it. The twins went up to Simon and hugged him while greeting him a happy birthday. A few moments later the teacher walks in and starts the class.

Without saying it everyone's excited for the party. Simon as well, he's looking forward to cook lasagna for his friends, but at the same time he still questions the nightmare that he saw. Who was that woman? What was that flower all about? How did he manage to dream something like that? Simon simply thought he should stop watching too much horror films.

After an excruciating math test, everyone was relieved for it to be over, more so for Simon's friends. This means that school is over and that they can party at Simon's place. They spent the entire day just talking about the party, now that school's over they all can no longer wait.

Everyone had their own thing to do. Liz and Vicky plan to buy a cake for Simon, even though Simon protests about them buying, Liz is very persistent and in the end Simon can't really stop her. Rob, Vina, and Rina plan to buy party decorations and they plan to go to Simon's house first to prepare and just simply wait for the others to come afterwards. Simon was hesitant at first because his father might be there but then again he remembered that his father didn't come last night and it's highly unlikely for him to return today. After much consideration Simon allowed the three of them to go ahead to his house first after buying the decorations.

After everything was settled they all went their separate ways and went to do their respective jobs. Liz and Vicky went to the bakery, while Rob, Vina, and Rina went to the nearest convenience store. Simon and Sebastian went to the grocery store.

While walking Simon and Sebastian were sightseeing around, it has been a long time since they've been in this part of the valley. Once they saw the old play ground they both smiled, those were happier times. They remembered Simon's mother watching over them as they play on the swing.

"She would've been so proud of you right now, and she'd be the most excited about your birthday out of all of us." Sebastian proclaims.

"Yeah I know she would. She would've been the first one to remind me that it's my birthday today."

As the two walk along they noticed a crowd of people standing around next to an apartment near the play ground. Simon immediately felt a sudden pain in his head. Sebastian notices this and asks Simon if everything was alright. Simon replies saying that everything is fine and that it was just a sudden headache. For some reason Simon felt anxious and afraid. He swallowed his fear and forced himself to go to the crowd.

He pushed his way through the crowd. As he reaches the source of all the commotion he saw the paramedics zipping up a body bag, in a split second Simon manages to take a quick glance. Simon was immediately filled with fear and disgust the face he saw was the same face of the woman from his nightmare, without a doubt, how can he forget such a horrifying scene, a scene so terrifying that it is forever etched into his mind. The only things that are different is the fact that the body will not rise again and that the weird flower that is supposed to be on her chest is nowhere to be seen.

Simon immediately ran to the nearest public restroom, he felt sick and thought of nothing but just vomiting. Sebastian quickly chased after him, once Simon found a restroom and quickly found an empty stall he immediately vomited in it. Sebastian looking confused asked Simon what was going on. Simon immediately replied that he was alright and that he was feeling a little sick because of what he saw.

After the entire ordeal Simon manages to convince Sebastian for them to just leave and go to the grocery store. As soon as they leave Simon witnesses the body bag being taken in the ambulance, in order to not risk him vomiting again he quickly walks away along with Sebastian. Sebastian is still very worried about Simon but he knows when Simon doesn't want to talk about anything he won't so he just went along with Simon in order for them to get home already.

Finally they made it to the grocery store.

"So you got the list?" Asked Sebastian.

"Yup it's in here in my bag hold on a sec."

As Simon picks out his list Sebastian was shocked to see how many ingredients they needed to buy. The list consists of olive oil, 3-4 onions, 2 large bell peppers, tomato sauce, 4-5 tomatoes, some Italian seasoning, garlic powder and that was just for the sauce. For the lasagna itself they needed lasagna noodles, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Basically different types of cheese.

" Do we even have the budget for these?" Sebastian's worried question.

"Yeah, I mean I have some of the other ingredients at home I only wrote those so that I wont forget what I need later."

Sebastian is in a state shock for this is the first time he has seen Simon so very competent. Simon understood that look and lightly jabs Sebastian's arm. It took some time but they managed to buy everything they needed. They immediately went to Simon's house to cook the food.

As soon as they arrived at the house they saw Rob blowing up balloons on the floor while Vina and Rina are putting up streamers on the walls, they promised that they'll clean it up afterwards. Simon started cooking the lasagna and Sebastian helped out with the balloons because Rob is clearly having a difficult time. When the lasagna was finished Liz and Vicky made it just in time along with the cake, written on the icing said "Happy 15th Birthday Simon from all your Friends!" Simon was touched, but this isn't an occasion for crying. They all dig in the food and had a wonderful evening. Vina is totally crushing it on karaoke and Rina is taking memorable pictures of everybody. Later on everyone else danced to the songs that Vina picked out except for Vicky and Sebastian who were to awkward and shy to dance in the first place. All in all that night was one of the best nights that everyone had, until someone came along. "What's all that noise!"

The voice came from outside the door, as soon as Simon opened it, it was his father still clearly drunk and with a beer in hand. "What's going on! Who are you kids?! What are you all doing in my house?!" He yelled. Everyone was silent for a moment, they knew that this is what Simon's father is like, until Liz suddenly spoke.

"We were celebrating Simon's birthday Mr.Cross."

"What? It's your birthday? Why didn't you tell me?" The confused question of Mr.Cross.

"Yeah its my birthday dad, I just thought you had more important stuff to do so I didn't bother."

"You could've at least told me!"

"It's okay dad its not a big deal."

"It is a big deal. I'm your father I need to be here at times like these!"

Something just suddenly snapped in Simon.

"Correct me if I'm wrong, but when have you ever been here? You spend most of your time in the bar than here. Even when you are here your not here your either drunk or sleeping!" Simon yells.

"Hey! I work my ass off for this family so don't talk to me like that!"

"What family! We haven't been a family ever since mom died. I've moved on dad you clearly haven't!"

"That's it you can't talk to me like that while you're still under my roof!"

"Maybe I don't want to be under your roof anymore! There's nothing here for me anymore!" Simon proclaims.

Blinded by rage Simon's father punched him in the face so hard he fell to the floor and his cheek is swelling and his mouth is bleeding. Rob being the biggest one of them tried to hold Simon's father back but he just get shoved away by the massive man. Simon's father looks at him intently and says. "If that's what you want then fine leave." The burly man went up the stairs and to his bedroom. Simon's friends quickly went to him and helped him get back up.

"If you need a place to go you could stay at my place." Said Sebastian.

"Is that okay with you? Simon asks.

"Of course, you should pack now though."

"We'll go get your stuff and pack for you" Said Rob.

"You guys don't have to." Said Simon.

"Can you guys go get his stuff I'll patch him up." Said Liz.

Everyone nodded. Rob, Vina, Sebastian, Rina, and even Vicky went up to his room to get his stuff. Liz is looking under the cabinets to look for a first aid kit to use. She found one and immediately returns to Simon.

"Has he ever hit you like that before?" Liz's worried question while she cleans Simon's face and hold an ice bag to it.

"Couple of times, and in all of those times he was drunk." He says this in a joking manner.

"This isn't funny Simon, you got hurt. you can report him you know?"

"As much as I hate him he's still my dad. Whatever I said earlier it'll never change the fact that he's my family, the last one to be exact. Besides maybe a little space could do us good."

"I hope you know what you're dong."

Just as she finishes treating Simon's cheek the others came down stairs with two plastic bags and his regular school bag all packed and ready to go. Before they all left they took out garbage bags and cleaned out the living room. As they all walk outside they left the garbage bags out on the porch. As they further walked Simon took one last look at the house, it was a pretty out of placed house to be in an urban area to begin with, pieces of it has gone missing, its rich white and yellow color already faded and the windows are all boarded up, the roof is in serious need of cleaning and repair. Now Simon is expected to live in Sebastian's house, at least for now.

Simon and Sebastian went their way while the others went their own. They all said happy birthday to Simon even though it wasn't all happy in the end. Simon notices their faces clearly showing them being worried. Simon reassures them and tells them that everything will be alright, after that they all left and they all said good night to one another.

As they arrived at Sebastian's house the place was all dark and still a little stuffy. Nevertheless Simon proclaims that its alright for him to sleep on couch, Sebastian tried to change his mind offers him his bedroom, but knowing Simon he knew that he can't convince him. The time was 10:00 p.m. As Sebastian walks up the stairs to sleep Simon quickly dozes of due to him being way to tired and fatigued.

Walking on a garden of strange looking violet flowers. The sky was as red as blood, the clouds were moving at an impossible speed. Simon heard whispers all over the place, the whispers were coming from the distance while at other times it was near as if the person whispering was up next to his ear. Suddenly the clouds stopped moving and poured out rain, but it was no ordinary rain by the color of it and the smell it wasn't water that was falling on Simon it was blood. Simon looked up to the clouds raining blood, as soon as he looked back down he was immediately greeted by the corpse of the woman he saw earlier. The woman once again had no eyes and was crying out blood and smiling right at him. Out of disbelief Simon rubbed his eyes and once he opened his eyes once more the weather was normal again, Simon's clothes were no longer drenched in blood, nothing but odd looking violet flowers can be seen for miles, the whispers has also stopped. Then suddenly the woman was once again beside Simon and whispered right into his ears "Smell the pretty flowers." Out of shocked Simon quickly turned around and like before the woman was no where to be seen. As soon as Simon puts his guard down a bloody hand sprouted from the ground and grabbed Simon's leg and slowly pulls him down the ground. Desperate he tries to claw his way out grabbing on to anything he can get his hands on, and yet it is too late he was then completely submerged underground.

Once again Simon woke up in the middle of the night gasping for air and sweating. He then looks at the time on his phone and on it says that it is 12:00 a.m. Out of frustration Simon scratched his head and buried his head on the pillow and asks himself.

"What's going on? What's happening to me?"

[jawlawsenpai]

Foretell Chapter 1: Closed Eye

Everyday is the same day for one Simon Cross. Wake up, eat, go to school, comeback home, eat, go to sleep, and repeat. There are times when its not boring as usual for Simon, these rare occasions happen due to his friends. They all have different quirks and talents that completely separate them apart. A miracle will happen soon and obstacles will test their resolve and their friendship.

Today is a new day, a Monday. The current state of the room suggests that a hurricane must've passed through. The walls are covered with various posters of rock bands and video game characters. On the corner a stack of comics is covering an old dusty base guitar. On the right side of the room a bed near the window is visible with someone currently under a blanket, the alarm rings with the time saying it's 7:00 A.M. The boy on the bed refuses to get up, tossing and turning just to ignore the loud noise of the alarm, he attempts to shut it off, clearly struggling, until finally he manages to turn it off and proceeds to look at the time. "ugh... morning already?" said the boy with a yawn. As he stands up he proceeds to the bathroom door next to his table and walks inside to wash his face, he looks in the mirror and all he saw was his light brown face and black hair, he says to himself "Alright Simon today's the day, we're gonna finally tell Liz how you feel about her." Just the thought of it makes Simon's face gushing red. "Can I really do it today?" He says that while his head is on the bathroom sink .

After that he went out of his room and walked down the stairs. He walked straight to the kitchen and open the refrigerator, he took two eggs to cook for his breakfast. After all that he proceeds to the bathroom to take a shower. He took out his favorite yellow shirt with a black star print on it along with some jeans. He packs his bag and walk towards the door, he passes by the living room and sees his father asleep on the couch with a beer bottle in hand. A look of hate and disgust is visible on Simon's face. He ignores his father and opens the door and proceeds to leave closing the door behind him.

As soon as Simon arrives he looks up and sees a huge sign of the schools name "Good Fortune High School", He walks in the front gate and greets the guard a good morning, the guard simply nods at him and gestures for him to keep on walking. Simon went inside the main building and walks up the stairs heading to the second floor.

As he makes it on the second floor he was immediately greeted by a tall man with an orange ginger hair wearing a red hoodie and a green shirt. He was Robin Flask or Rob for short, he's the oldest in Simon's circle of friends that's because he was always held back at school for the lack of academic improvement, but he still remains a kind and down to earth person who likes animals specifically a stray black cat he named Caster. Being an orphan Rob learned to live and survive on his own also being a part time mechanic.

"Hey Rob your awfully early today." Simon says this with a teasing face.

"Shut up squirt, everyone's in class already."

"Is Liz there?"

"Of course when has she ever been absent?"

"Y-yeah... ha ha ha you're right. I guess I'm going in then." He's face is completely flustered.

"Uh huh you go get her romeo" Rob says this with a visible smirk on his face.

Rob rubs Simon's head and goes down stairs to got to the bathroom. Simon walks up to the first door on the left, he took a deep breath and walks in. As he opens the door there were around 20 students there including all of Simon's friends. He saw the class president Vicky Chimes sitting in the front row. Black haired and wearing a long skirt along with a white blouse and a huge pair of glasses, she is the best friend of Elizabeth Swan and she is a perfectionist. She believes that all boys are revolting. She quickly glances at Simon but totally ignores him afterwards.

Simon was immediately greeted by a camera flash, it was the twins, Vina and Rina Vale, the two look completely the same with their white skin and blonde hair. The only way to differentiate the two is through their height, hair styles and clothing. Vina the older sister and the tallest between the two, she has rowdy and unkempt hair, she is currently wearing a white buttoned down shirt with a red necktie and a very short skirt with high socks and a pair of pink sneakers. Vina dreams of becoming a very famous rock star one day. Rina while holding a digital camera is currently wearing a green flannel jacket and skinny jeans along with a pair of black sneakers, her hair is also braided in pigtails. She dreams of becoming a journalist one day. These twins are well known to have a very financial family, in more common terms they are filthy rich.

"How's the picture?" Simon asks to Rina.

"Hmm... a bit blurry but I can manage, nothing a little editing can't fix." Rina says this with a very optimistic smile.

"So is today the day?" Vina's teasing question to Simon.

"Th-the day for what exactly?" Simon being once again flustered.

"Oh come on! When are you going to man up and ask her out on a date?" Vina says this with an expectant look on her face.

"I'm working on it okay." Clearly has an agitated look on his face.

"Okay dude chill, good luck with that plan of yours." She says this with an actual optimistic expression.

The twins proceeded to go to their respective seats that's near the door in the back of the classroom. Simon also went straight to his seat. Simon's chest started to tighten, he heard he's heart beat louder and louder. This is because of the fact that he is seated right next to Liz. He saw Elizabeth Swan Staring outside the window. She looks lovely as ever, with her fishtailed braided brown hair and her light brown skin. Liz is a hardworking student she studies hard and always shows effort with all her school works, she is also a black belt in karate. She doesn't have any plans on what her future should be like, but with her talents and skills the sky is the limit. She turns around and immediately sees Simon and waves at him. Simon stared directly into her green eyes and immediately looks away. He went to his seat with a gushing red face and finally sits down.

"Good morning Simon" She greeted him with a huge smile on her face only inches away from him.

"Go-good morning Liz" Simon is clearly glowing red. He tries to move inches away Liz's space. Although Liz closes that space and gets closer to Simon.

"What are you doing?" Simon's flustered question to Liz.

"Why are you moving away from me?" Liz's honest curiosity.

"I don't know... maybe it's something about personal space." Simon says that in a joking manner.

"So you don't like me anymore?" She pouts and looks away from Simon.

"N-no it's not like that I mean I do like you, b-but just as a friend, I-i mean for now at least, n-not saying that we can be together, j-just saying that there might be a chance, I-i'm not saying that you're not pretty I mean you're beautiful..." This goes on for quite some time and Liz just simply giggles at Simon.

"Can you two get a room?" Said by a chilling voice from the seat in front of Simon. It was Sebastian Luke Fer. He is Simon's best friend, he's very pale and very thin, he's hair is long enough to have bangs covering he's left eye. He's wearing a plain back long sleeved shirt. He is half German, at least that's what he tells people, he doesn't share a lot of personal information with people not even with Simon. Nevertheless Simon still trusts him because they've been best friends ever since they were little.

"Shut up Sebastian!" He says this while he's flustered.

"Whatever." Sebastian says this while smirking.

Liz did nothing other than just laugh at the two while they're arguing. Simon trying to reason out again this time to Sebastian, while Sebastian is still calm and collected and just kept on teasing Simon.

The teacher finally entered the classroom and instructed the students to sit properly and quit talking with one another. Everyone followed and class started. It was an agonizing hour of Math class. All of the students were waiting for the bell to ring and for this class to be over. Hours and multiple classes have passed and it's finally lunch time.

The group went to the cafeteria and ordered their usual go to foods. Simon ordered rice with some gravy and chicken, Liz ordered a salad, Sebastian just ordered yogurt, Rob ordered a cold pizza, Rina and Vina brought their home cooked foods that looks a lot like a five star meal, and Vicky also ordered a salad. They were just talking about random stuff until Liz asked Simon a question.

"So Simon any plans for tomorrow?"

"Nothing really. Why whats happening tomorrow?"

"Ha ha ha very funny... Wait are you for real you actually forgot your birthday?"

Simon was stunned, he did actually forget that it was his birth day tomorrow. Everyone except Vicky who is still eating, stared at him intently also shocked by the fact.

"I must've just forgotten, you guys wanna hangout tomorrow?" Simon awkwardly scratches the back of his head and smiles at his friends.

"Sure how about at your place?" Vina asks.

"Oh I really missed your cooking, are you going to cook?" Rina asks.

"I don't see why not, tomorrow I'll buy ingredients after school" Simon proclaims.

"I'll come with you." Sebastian added.

"I'll only come if Liz comes." Said Vicky.

"Of course I will." Said Liz.

"Then it's settled then party at Simon's house tomorrow" Rob says this while still chewing on some pizza.

After lunch they all went back to class. The bell rang telling everyone that school's over and that they can all go home. Everyone said their good byes and went their separate ways. Simon and Sebastian walk the same way going home and so they always walk together.

"I can't believe you actually forgot it was your birthday tomorrow?" Sebastian looks concerned.

"Yeah me too if Liz didn't remind me I still wouldn't have remembered."

"Speaking of Liz what happened to the plan of you telling her how you felt about her?" Sebastian stated teasingly.

"I-i forgot okay!" Again Simon is flustered.

"You're too obvious, when you're around her you revert back to being a child, I'm still surprised she hasn't figured it out yet."

"Oh shut up." Simon smiles, he likes these small chats with Sebastian.

Finally an intersection separates the two boys apart. Sebastian going to the left, while Simon continues forward. They fist bumped each other and went their separate ways.

It was already night and it's completely dark outside. Soon as Simon comes home he's father was no where in sight. Simon just assumes that he's in a bar drinking like usual. Simon took two pieces of bread from the refrigerator and spreads some chocolate Nutella on it, this is considered a dinner for Simon. He walks up stairs to his bedroom, drops his bag and he lies down flat, he opened his phone to look at some new messages. Mostly all of the messages were from his friends greeting him an advanced happy birthday, they also said that they are excited for tomorrow. Simon felt a little pressured but at the same time excited it's been a couple of months since the last time he cooked for his friends. The thought gave Simon a huge smile thinking that he was lucky to have friends like these. Simon took a fresh pair of pajamas and slept through the night.

It was raining, the side walk is wet. A group of people were standing around in front of an apartment complex. On the second floor a door with the numbers 206 is visible. Simon goes closer to the group of people huddled over. He pushes his way through the crowd. A dead body was clearly laying there, a woman wearing a red dress laying on the floor with a pool of blood. An odd looking violet flower was growing from the corpse chest still in bloom. Simon knelt down to take a closer look, until suddenly the corpse stood back up and choke Simon, she opened her eyes but those very eyes were absent only two deep holes can be seen, both crying and gushing out blood. The corpse spoke in a deep and yet chilling manner.

"Smell the pretty flowers"

Simon was struggling he didn't know what to do he was overpowered by this corpse until it snapped his neck and it made a sharp cracking sound.

Simon woke up screaming, he was sweating and breathing heavily. He looked at the time in his alarm clock indicating that it is 12:00 a.m. It's his birthday. He covers his eyes and rubs it vigorously. He lies back in bed staring at the ceiling.

"What was all that about?"
