In Frost

Chapter 20 Escape From The Bullies

The second I saw them, I instantly slammed the door and put my back against the door.

Why are they here? I thought, What is Chloe doing here?

I jumped suddenly when I heard a knock on the door. Instantly, I put my hand over my mouth. "Hello?" A voice said from the other side of the door. I remained silent.

"I know your home Sonya" Chloe said from the other side "I wanna have a chat with you."

I still remained silent as I quietly walked away from the door. "Is that too much to ask" I heard Chloe say with a hint if anger in her voice. As I went upstairs, I could still hear Chloe yelling at me, But I payed no attention to her.

For the next half an hour, I waited for Chloe and her friends to leave, I made sure to check through the front window just to be sure. When is she going to leave? I thought as I checked for the one millionth time. "How can I get them to leave?" I asked myself and I began to ponder.

Then an idea came, I'll go out the back! I quickly raced out to the backyard and jumped over the fence.

Then, I sprinted off away from the house, Thank god that their isn't a house behind ours.

I continued sprinting until I had reached the shops. I think I lost them I thought as I tried to catch my breath. I looked over my shoulder, incase they had followed me. Luckily, they hadn't.

Now I can go out shopping I thought happily as I began looking at the shops.

~TimeSkip~

After I had bought all the stuff I needed, I left the pharmacy and began making my way back. While I was walking back, I noticed a few kids from the other side of the road looking at me.

Oh no I thought, It's Chloe's group. They began running towards me. I instantly started running, "Get back here Freak!" one of the boys yelled from behind me. I payed no attention to him as I turned a corner.

I can't keep running forever I thought as I glanced over my shoulder for the millionth time to see them still chasing me. I turned to yet another corner, almost crashing into someone. Luckily I stopped just in time.

"Sorry" I said as I went around them and began running again. Then, I noticed the bookstore from the other day. Yes, I can hide in there I thought happily as I went inside.

Quickly, I hid myself behind one of the bookcases and grabbed a random book from the shelf and pretended I was reading.

I kept glancing over at the window. Chloe's gang of friends pass by, Not looking at the bookstore. I let out a sigh of relief, This is gonna be tricky getting back home I though as I put the book back on the shelf.

I left the shop, making sure that none of Chloe's friends were watching me. Then, I sprinted away not looking back.

At least 10 minutes later, I could hear Chloe's gang chasing behind me. "Get back here freak!" One of her friends yelled from behind. I can't keep this up I thought, If I don't do something they're gonna catch me. God who knows what they will do.

"You can't run forever" One of them said, Then an idea began to form in my head. I began to imagine a large cold gust of wind blowing in front of me. As I tried I concentrate, I could feel my head acing.

A few minutes later, A howl of wind blew in front of me. "Where did this wind come from?" one of the boys asked. I glanced over my shoulder, They were having trouble fighting against the wind. That will hold them off I thought.

For the rest of the way, I had no trouble getting back to the house, by the time I had got there, it was already lunch time. Mum and dad must have already left I thought as I put the stuff I bought on the dinning room table.

"Well, I better start making my lunch" I said as I made my way to the kitchen.

After I finished my lunch, I grabbed the products I bought and put them in the bathroom. Then, I went up to my room and collapsed onto the bed.

Maybe I should take a nap I thought as I got myself into a comfortable sleeping position. Slowly, my eyelids closed and I fell asleep.

In the dream, I found myself walking in across a forest covered in a blanket of snow. What am I doing here? I thought as I took another large step through the thick snow.

Then I stopped. In front of me was a fox sitting a few metered away, looking at me. "Hey boy" I said, crouching down.

Then, the fox slowly sat up and came closer, till he was a few centimeters from me. The fox looked up at me, then he turned around and ran off.

Before he left, he stoppered and turned his head back to me, He shook his head at me and that The Fox ran off into the forest.

After he left, the wind changed, it was now blowing violently, making everything hard to see. Where did this crazy wind come from? I thought as I began to hug myself, to keep warm.

Though it was hard to see, I could see the forest around me start to vanish as the wind grew more violently. Eventually, I was swept off my feet and blown away with the wind.

I instantly opened my eyes, now I was back in my room. I sat up, trying to catch my breath. That dream... It felt so real I thought as I put my right hand on my forehead.

My forehead suddenly felt suddenly cold. That's weird I thought, as I finally noticed that my right arm was covered in a glossy layer of ice.
