Supernatural

Rena closed her daughter in a rib-crushing hug, letting tears fall on her soft hair.
"Hey mama," Chasity whispered. Rena hiccuped, unable to speak. Soon, Chasity knew the harsh questioning would begin, but first, Rena wiped her eyes and turned to Savvina.
"Thank you so much," she choked out. She blushed, red smearing across her freckled, tear-stained face. "I'm so sorry, Savvina. I wasn't right to push you away."

 

Julian was laying on the couch now. His father had yelled at him and he was sulking. He knew he was sulking. Then he saw a man with blond hair look at him.
Julian looked at him.
"You know your duty...fufill it,"
Julian watched as he melted and disappeared. Julian grabbed his coat and walked out the door. He didn't say anything to his parents and he understood the man's words. He didn't know why he understood the words, but he did. Julian set out to find faces taht rang in his head Savvina, Chasity, Jesse, Derek, AJ, ,Micheal, etc.
He didn't know how he knew them, but he knew them. And he needed them. He understood his duty and he was going to fufill it.

 

Savvina smiled and felt an urge to disappear out of the woman's sight.
"It's alright, auntie. I should be going now."
She turned away and then, remembering something, turned back.
"Remember, tomorrow at six."
She then ran out of sight, excited and nervous at the same time.
"I'm not going to see Julian, ever."
She spoke to herself, heading home.

 

Julian ran acroos the street since to was such a small town cars rarely passed by. He ran to Micheal house. Julian wasn't sure how he knew this stuff, but he did. He threw a rock at his window.
"Fufill your duty...You'll know it when you feel it!" he screamed at the window.
He ran to all the houses until he came to a stop at Savvina's house. He had acted so wrong and so retarded in front of her. Julian knew what he was suppose to do. But instead of stepping on her lawn or stepping knew her home he hid behind a fence knowing she would still here.
"FUFILL YOUR DUTY...YOU'LL KNOW IT WHEN YOU FEEL IT!" he screamed at the top of his lungs.
Then he ran off before she even saw him or he even saw her.

 

It was early morning now, and Savvina had been spending the night writing about her new friends. She had started to come terms with reality.
"Jesse is sensitive, but sweet. I'm so sad her Dad beats her up. I'll help her fight him when this thing is over."
"Michael is weird, but I guess losing grandparents is a big thing. My grandparents are sick, and I'm so upset. He's a sensible boy."
"AJ is so cute! I'd so totally adopt him if I wanted to!"
"Chastity is the same. Sensitive, truthful and loving. I'll always be by her side. And i'll always protect her no matter what."
But Julian had received slightly different overviews.
"Jerk. No comments."

Suddenly, she heard a haunting wail from the garden. She knew the voice. Julian. She ran to the window to see him, but he wasn't there.
"So Julian has gotten to him too."
She smiled to herself, and then looked at the clock.
"Five fifty."
She quickly brushed her hair, wrapped her draping cloak and climbed out of the window.
"Better get started."
She told herself, heading for Chastity's home once more.

 

Julian had been outside for long running around like a moron. He looked at his cellphone. He had to get into his fathers labs. He smiled.
"Lucky me," Julian said outloud.
He saw his fathers red and rich car. Julian ran in front of the car. He knew his father would honk the horn and yell at him.
"What are you Julian?" his father asked.
"I'm going to work with you!" Julian demanded more then asked.
"You can't..."
"You can't stop me I'm doing so there!" Julian called out.
Julian climbed into the car and buckiled up. his father was a bit stunned, but started to head to his work reluctantly.

 

Rena began crying again when Savvina called her "auntie". She was so ashamed, and she didn't have any defense for herself. She knew it was wrong, and she knew Savvina was a fine girl - she just worried because Savvina was popular and growing up. Her dear friend Chelsea had been a wonderful young girl, and a rotten young lady, and with Chasity's condition, she didn't want to see her daughter betrayed. Chasity's heart beat faster as she waited for the ridicule, though it was starting to regain normal speed now that she was home.
"Where were you?" Rena asked, wiping her tears.
"I was . . . I thought I'd be home before you were, I'm sorry, mama. I was at the pizza place across the street - I just thought if I got out more - little by little - I could stop being afraid. The thing is . . . when I got there, it was horrible, so I rushed up to the fourth floor - the arcade - and no one was there. So I stayed. But Savvina and her friends came up there, and I tried to talk to them, but I ended up hiding out in the bathroom, and when everyone left and I recovered, the place was closed." Rena looked up at the ceiling in exasperation.
"Okay," she said, "No more tonight, okay? Come on, time for bed." She nudged her daughter in the direction of her room, and, with a final worried sigh, went to sleep herself.

 

Julian twiddled his fingers in his father's car. His father was listening to the classical station he always did.
The inside of the car was stiff and thick. No one spoke it was just silence. Mr.Ultizen glared at his son for a moment, but continued going without a word.
Julian looked down at his shoes and sighed heavily. He wondered what was so important about Ultizen labs.

 

The next morning, Chasity woke up thinking about the night before. Remember, tomorow at six. She glanced over at the blaring alarm clock. Five thirty. She hit it, got up, showered and dressed quickly, and walked into the living room. Her mother was hurriedly eating a pop-tart, dressed for work. She looked surprised to see Chasity.
"What're you doing up so early, baby?" She asked, before taking a sip of milk.
"I uh . . . " Chasity began. What was she supposed to tell her mother? She was crazy to think she'd be allowed out of the house. "Accually, I was going to hang out with Savvina at six." She said, truthfully. Rena looked shocked.
"Really?" Chasity nodded, worried her mother would say "absolutely not!" But she didn't. "Well, be back by seven, okay?"
"Okay," Chasity said, a wide grin sneaking onto her face. Her mother got up, put her empty glass into the sink, and wiped crumbs from her hands before hugging her daughter.
"Bye, hon."
"Bye mama," Chasity grinned into Rena's shoulder, "have fun at work." Rena rolled her eyes and ignored that wish.
"Love you."
"Love you too!" Chasity called, closing and deadbolting the door. Then she sat on the couch, pushing away the fear crawling in her spine, and waited.

 

Chastity reached the house she was supposed to. Chastity stood in waiting, perkily dressed, like always. Climbing in the garden, she passed a big smile to Chastity.
"Come on, let's get going."
Offices were open this day but the roads were scarcely populated. However, she knew that Chastity couldn't take even a few cars, she immediately stopped at the edge of the garden.
"You might want to cover your eyes and hold my hands."

 

Chasity took hold of Savvina's right sleeve, but she kept her eyes open. She concentrated only on copying the steps Savvina took and breathing.

 

*Before 6*
Jesse smiled as she lifted herself out of bed. Thank goodness,she sighed to herself. She needed to get out of the building before her dad showed up. The nurses had called him to see her.
She strode through the hallway as fast as she could managed. The elevator wasn't coming quick enough it seemed. She nervously tapped her foot. She concluded she would have to take the stairs.
She opened the door and saw her dad marching up them. She froze instantly.
"Jesse," he smiled at her coldly. "You diapered on me."
She didn't say anything until he was face to face with her. "Don't come near me..." she muttered.
"What was that?" He placed a hand on her shoddier.
Something broke in her. The mild girl that was inside her was consumed by something dark and ferocious. "I SAID DON'T COME NEAR ME!" With all the strength she could possibly dream to possess she shoved her father away from her. His foot got caught on the steps and he tumbled... down and down.
Jesse sat there for a moment in shock as the sound of Mr. O'Brien's body tumbling on the stairs quieted. Then tears came. She had just killed someone. They had died because she loved them. She was no worse than her father, the victim.
She turned to stare at the others. The were in danger. She could hurt them at anytime.
Turning on her heal, she ran as fast as she could down the stairway. She almost tripped a few times because of all the blood on the steps. When she reached the bottom she beheld a gruesome sight. Her dad's body lay broken and mangled from the fall. His face held the shock of the murder. He was dead.
A scream got caught in her throat as she fled from the building. She didn't stop running until she was out of town. The police would improbably be hunting for her in the morning. Maybe she could swim to Mexico or something. She needed to get away.
Then Savvina's words rang in her head. As soon as Michael comes back, you tell him about this. Then, you should meet me sharp at 6 am at my house. She needed to be there. She turned around. She didn't care about the consequences anymore. They all need each other.

 

Savvina waltzed into her lawn, happy that everyone was fast asleep and no one was aware of her plans. Chastity held on tight - the best thing about her. Now, to wait.

 

"Is . . . is everyone else coming here, Savvina?" Chasity asked, trying to sound simply curious, rather than in any way afraid.

 

Savvina looked over to Chastity, nodding,
"Yup - and you know what? There's another fellow along with them."
Savvina suddenly felt a bolt of guilt, as if she shouldn't have said that.
"You don't have an issue - right?"

 

"No," Chasity lied, surpressing a shiver. "It's just four then . . . right?" She was kind of hurt. Her mind was saying: You know I do. After all, hadn't Savvina said she'd keep her friends away from Chasity. She sighed and decided that she'd suck it up - Savvina had probably just forgotten.

 

Although there was no sign of fear in Chastity's Savvina felt the need to clarify herself. After all, she had promised her about keeping her away from her friends.
"Yeah, four. Anyway, don't you worry. We'll take different paths. It will be just you and me, and they'll never cross our paths. Trust me."
Savvina then heard a girl tripping over the cherry bushes.
"Jesse?"
Savvina called out, and then pushed Chastity to a side.
"You might want to stand at a side."

 

Chasity regained her balance and tried to steady her heartbeat. Maybe, if they all came one by one, she could handle it. Maybe . . .

 

Jesse stumbled towards them. "Thank God, I found you guys." She placed her hands on her knees for a minute to catch her breath. Then she turned to Chastity with her hand held in front of her, "I don't believe we have been properly introduced. My name is Jesse O'Brien."

 

Chasity gave a shaky smile and extended a hand.
"I'm Chasity Laurence," she said.

 

Savvina yawned, happy but also sleep at the same time. She immediately straightened her back, trying to act lively and energetic.
"I hope Michael and AJ get here soon."
She purposefully skipped Julian. Now guilt poured into her heart, as she thought of last night. I should've told him.

 

Chasity grinned, feeling more comfortable.
"I just hope they don't get here all at once," she said. "What about Julian?"

 

Savvina gave an uneasy look, but she realized that lying wouldn't really help.
"I'm not sure."

 

Chasity wasn't entirely sure what that meant. She wasn't sure if he was coming? That seemed to make the most sense. Something seemed wrong to her - she would be more comfortable, in fact, with less people, but it seemed like the whole thing wouldn't work somehow unless everyone was there. But she kept her mouth shut.

 

It had ben thirty minutes since his father had picked him up. Julian noticed his father was stalling for unknown reasons.
Julian knew his father didn't want him to come.
What is he hiding? he thought to himself.
Julian twiddled his fingers and then his eyes widened in fear. He watched as his two thumbs went through each other. As if he were a ghost.
"Father am I alive?" Julian asked quickly.
"Yes," father said.
"You can see my thumbs right?"
"Yes,"
Julian stared at his thumbs. What was that?
