Stories to tell. [discontinued]

Fallen Soul.

The day felt like it would be a good one,as the sky was clear,although I know that could change in an instant.

I had woken up today feeling more tired than usual,but got up and dressed ready to aid my father with his work…although when I went to go find him,I couldn't,

I sighed quietly to myself and headed out of the place I call our home,going to see if there was anything that I could do to keep myself occupied until he gets home.

I do have to be honest,the place I call our home isn't really the best place as it is a rundown shack that has a very beaten up mattress that I sleep on when the day ends,although I do suppose it is better than sleeping on the sidewalk,

I smoothed out my clothes as I walked into town,a group of people catching my attention..my friends.

It didn't take long for them to notice me,calling me over and smiling once i reached them,

I did quite like my friends as they were really nice to me and they treated me no differently than anyone else in the town…hell,you could say I had a crush on one of them,albeit I do believe they do not feel the same way.

They included me in their discussion,i think they said that they where going to go visit one of the abandoned buildings not too far away from one of their houses, a large mansion that had rumors of being haunted,

It did pique my interest,sure,but it was just rumors after all there was no way that the building could have residents of the spirit world.

They invited me to join them in visiting the mansion,and since i had nothing better to do i agreed,if anything did happen i could leave freely is what they told me.

As we walked to the aforementioned mansion,i noticed that a few of them were carrying pocket knives,and upon bringing that up to one of them they just told me that they were carrying them just in case they needed to defend themselves,

It did make me uncomfortable,but I tried to shrug it off as that was a reasonable reason for why they had them.

I think i must've told one of them that i was tired while we were walking there,because i got a soft pat on the back in return and got told we weren't going to be there for too long…i liked that,it made me feel comfortable,

As we arrived I noticed how big the building seemed,and how well it was built as it really didn't seem like it was going to fall at any point in the future.

The group and i headed in together and we split off to go explore,and as i did i ended up in a room with a really fancy and heavy looking chandelier,as i looked at it closer i noticed that the chain holding it seemed like it could break at any moment, “lets try not to re-enter this room” i told myself as i left to go regroup with everyone.

As i got back to our assigned meeting place i noticed that only three people where there instead of the five i had entered with,and when i asked where the others went they told me that they had to go home because they didn't feel safe being here,

I nodded in understanding and turned to look around a little before I heard clothes moving and feeling something cold hit my side,

It started to get warm and hurt before I looked down to see what happened,and took notice very quickly that there was now a pocket knife on my side and that I was bleeding quite badly.

I looked back to the group and noticed that they all had their knives ready and aimed at me,and that's when I realized that I came with them to a secluded place so that they could kill me…they planned this,and I was none the wiser.

I held my hand closer to where i was bleeding to hopefully stop too much from leaking out as i turned around,i got hit once more as i ran off in hopes to get away from them but my soul did drop once i heard them pursuit me,

I entered and exited various rooms as I tried to get away from them,knocking over many things as I ran

I ended up in the room with the chandelier I was worried about but i must've not noticed,i stopped to listen to see if they were getting close,

I heard something near the room I was in, and then I heard a creak from above me. I didn't realize I was standing beneath the chandelier until it came crashing down onto me.

The last thing I heard was a pained scream that was cut far too short and the shattering of porcelaine. An immense weight was what I felt hit me before I couldn't feel anything at all,I couldn't move or see anything anymore either.

I guess,the rumors of the mansion being haunted are true now for my soul will not rest until they receive a punishment for killing me in cold blood.
