Chapter 1
I glanced out the window, dark and stormy. A smile spread across my lips as I took in the storm. Fog, rain, thunder as loud as drums and lightning like fireworks. A dark figure walked out of the forest across the dirt street. His face was set in a glare as he walked towards our house, his cloak flowing in the wind. I staggered back from the window and ran down the stairs. My brother, Drake, threw me a 'you're going crazy- aren't you?' look. I nodded towards the door.
"What?" he asked.
"Hide!" I hissed.
He loped off the couch and stood up, he towered over me. Was he getting bigger? He put a hand on my shoulder to stop me from shaking.
"Hide? Why?" he asked, oblivious.
Shhh!" I hissed again, shrugging out from under his hand. I grabbed his arm and pulled him up the stairs, a second later there was a knock. Drake started walking down the stairs; I grabbed his shirt.
"No! Don't! You want to die?!" I sneered.
"Wha- Die? How? Rilee. Seriously." He grabbed my hand and unloosened my fingers. I darted down the stiars. I started through the peep hole. A beautiful face was there, staring down. His features were perfect. His skin seem pale white but the hood was covering most of his face. I started unlocking the door and crimson eyes darted up to the peep hole then to the handle. A big hand grabbed mine and pulled it away from the handle. Drake pryed my face away from the peep hole.
"Who is it?"
I lauhged and stuck his face to the hole. He pulled away.
"Funny Rilee. No one's there.'
"What?! Liar." I looked through it again, there he was. He was staring at the handle and the door burst open, flying me to the back of the wall.
