I looked out the backdoor window thinking I was delusional, seeing a bright white rabbet run across my ripped up yard. I don’t remember doing anything yesterday, and I was hoping my little sister could tell me. “Hey Rose” I said seeing her walk by. Rose is only six years old and thinks she’s the queen of the world, she has the brightest blue eyes, long black hair put up in a ponytail, a soft narrow face with pale skin, and she wore a pink dress with red hearts on them. “What’s your problem” she screeched putting her hands on her hips.“Like I need to hear your voice in the morning” she added as she walked out the room like a runway model. I looked away from the window and ran past her down the stairs. “Hey” she yelled as if I hurt her. I was about halfway down when she ran past me, her hand came out of no where and smacked me across the face. I fell with my hands stretched out in front of me down the stairs and landed at the bottom on the tile, and if you thought that hurt, Rose stomped on me when she pounced down the stairs. “Sheesh can’t you ever look where your goin lil’ bro” my big brother Scrap practically screamed. ( I know it’s a weird name but it fits.) At first I couldn’t talk, I hadn’t realized Rose was so heavy. “Need help?” he asked. I held out my hand and he not so gently haled me to my feet. “ you okey” “Yea” I managed to say. I looked at him. He has the most deepest dark eyes I’ve seen, he’s real nice, wears a short black sleeve shirt to show off his muscles, and he has dark brown hair. “ what has gotten into you lately?” he asked ruffling my cream colored hair. I crouched down under his arm into the hallway with the door. I ran knowing he was behind me because I could hear his soft gentle laughter. I ran out the door and did a cartwheel off the front step. “Show off” he laughed stopping at the door, “Your just jealous” I yelled back still running through my town. I ran past some people, and into the woods. Then I slowed to a walk. I didn’t follow the trail, only the one in my memoire, and while I was walking my denim jacket got snagged on a branch. I spent a couple of minuets undoing it. Then I went back to the hidden trail, suddenly a twig snapped. I whirled around and came face to face with Johnny. He screamed as he tackled me. He was small and I wasn’t exactly big but I was bigger then him. He struggled to get free of my head lock. “ give up?” I laughed. “Never” he yelled. But I let him go anyway. “ don’t ever sneak up on me again, I was getting ready to kill you.” He laughed. “ sorry” Johnny has blond hair, greenish blue eyes, and a personality that you could never buy. He wears a black shirt with a matching denim jacket, and dark denim jeans. “ hey Curly, guess what?” he asked smiling as we walked. “ what” He shoved me and I lost my balance and fell on the ground. I laughed as I seen him start running. “ I’ll get you fer that ” I screamed as I grabbed a branch and pulled myself up. I knew that if Johnny hide I would never find him, sense his so small. I started running in the direction I thought he went. After a while I gave up and sat near a clearing close to the edge of the woods. I guess he went home I thought, but that’s not like him, and so I forced myself up and started walking to the edge of the woods, in a other clearing theirs a lake, I can’t tell where it ends but I know it can’t be very big, because it just wasn’t that wide or deep. I sat by the water listening to the gentle stream. “ Johnny I give” I yelled. I didn’t see him so I turned to the lake. Something hit my back. I turned around and saw Johnny behind me. “ I don’t ever remember this lake being here” he said sitting next to me. “ I think I saw it last night while I was walking.” I said laying down. He joined me and laid his hair in the water, then pulled his head back. “What’s wrong” I asked. “ there’s a weird sound in the water” I laid my head in the water, and I instantly hurd a pounding noise, or maby it sounded like a .. .a....waterfall. “It’s a waterfall” I said standing up to try and see it. “ man look at the time, sorry Curl I have to go or I’ll get beaten by my brother” Johnny yelled. “ yea we can see the waterfall later”I agreed. “ I’ll race ya” I started running laughing as he trailed behind. I knew it wouldn’t be fer long cause he’s a fast runner too. Just as I thought he came running up to me, just as we reach the town, it took a little longer cause we went around the woods instead of through them. Then he ran past me to a different part of town. “See ya later” he yelled vanishing behind another house. I stopped running and just stood there. “Now what?” I asked myself. I didn’t want to go home yet, I couldn’t go to school sense it was Friday, and I don’t have very many friends so I couldn’t go over someone’s house. I was near the candy shop so I stopped by there to see what was fer sale. As I went in a man rushed out. “ Stop him” The owner yelled. “He robbed me” I didn’t know what to do. “ does he have a weapon?” I asked the owner. He sighed. “No” I ran after him, he wasn’t fast but I couldn’t keep up, I had been running all day. “Stop” I yelled. He looked back at me and I stopped. “Darrell?” I whispered. He was my friend who disappeared in school. I was so shocked. “ don’t follow me Curly” he yelled looking back at me again. That’s exactly what I did, I didn’t follow him.. How could he? Why? All these questions went through my head and I couldn’t move, not even when the owner ran past me. My head was spinning and my feet started swaying, and the ground came at me. I woke up in my bead, and Scrap was there. “You gave me a scare” he whispered. “I’m okey” I said. “ what happened?” “ the doctor said you weren’t breathing after the owner of the candy shop saw you on the ground.” I felt terrible, I was helpless and my head hurt. “Where’s Rose?” I asked. He was silent. “ Scrap where is she?” I said my voice rising. “ on her way to her friends she didn’t look when crossing the street.” he whispered. “ is she okey?” “ no, she’s in the hospital, I only hope the doc says she will be.” he looked down as he said it. “Ah..Man.” I yelled hitting my hand on the wall. “Don’t beat yourself up Curl, the doctor said you have to rest.” “ I can’t now” He stood up from the chair, I looked down at the floor as he walked out. Soon the doctor came and I hadn’t slept. He was outside of my room. “How is he doing” I herd the doctor ask. “That will be up to you” Scrap said. “He should be fine as long as he remembers to breath after running.” “How long was I out?” I asked from inside the room. I was sitting up now and my head still kinda hurt. “A couple of hours nothin real serious. You’ll be fine to get out of bed now too.” the Doctor said.
