Chapter One A New Beginning - 1102 Words
CHAPTER ONE A NEW BEGINNING Sweat dripped down my face. The bruises on my back and sides throbbed, my broken ribs screamed in agony. Every breath was a tiny battle, every inhale and exhale evokes a gurgly rattle and a racking cough. All of this pain could be gone with one choice. A single sentence would take away all my bruises, heal my broken bones, even restore my lame leg that I was born with. One sentence. ââ¬Å"I.... I g-grant permission!â⬠I cried, gasping, shoving every last ounce of my strength into those words. Tears were running down my face as pain overwhelmed me at last, and my world faded into a blissful state of nothingness. * * * * * * * * * ââ¬Å"Logan.... Logan! Get up! Are you okay? Oh! Oh God, Ohâ⬠¦show more contentâ⬠¦I was dying, and I didnââ¬â¢t even know how, or why, or when. I began panicking and told myself to calm down. ââ¬Å"Oh, Logan, oh God, oh God, Iââ¬â¢m sorry, I-I didnââ¬â¢t know... I didn t think....

Maybe if I knew I could fix it. Being logical was the only way I could keep myself from freaking out. The girl sat there, watching me, as if expecting me to say, Ha! Just kidding, I know you!, but I was dead serious - literally. Time passed quickly, as if running from the scene of a dying man and a person he didn t remember. This wasn t going to end well. The sun began to set as the girl sat there, staring at me, dumbfounded. And then, all at once, she began talking again. ââ¬Å"I- Iââ¬â¢m Jennif er, remember? Iââ¬â¢m your girlfriend...? Do you honestly not know what happened? Did... did my bringing you back make you forget.... I stabbed you with this!!â⬠She cried out now, holding a wooden stake in her hand. The stake was covered in blood, and it had the same metallic smell. ââ¬Å"L-Logan, do you... do you really not remember? Do you really not remember me, or us, or anything? You donââ¬â¢t remember being a vampire? You-â⬠She stopped talking abruptly, and let out a strangled sort of gurgle. Claws were embedded in her throat, sweet, intoxicating blood
