X and Elena
Chapter 1: X and Elena "Where am I?" I asked myself. "What place is this?" I was standing in front of a burning building and all I could hear were the screams of the people inside. On the outside I saw a little girl standing with tears in her eyes. "Hey!" I yelled at her. "It's not safe here! Run!" She continued to cry, I guess she was too terrified to move. I rushed over to grab her but I was stopped in my tracks by the flames. "Aaaaahhhhh!" That scream, that blood curdling scream. I'll never forget it. I'll never forget the look on the girls face as the fire consumed her. Just then a piece of the building I was standing under collapsed on top of me and I was pinned down. "Dammit!" I struggled to get out, but It wouldn't budge. All I could do was hopelessly struggled until finally the flames consumed me too. They were hot, hotter than anything I've ever felt. I could feel my skin burning straight down to the bone. "Gwaahhhh!" I screamed and found myself in a room. It took me a minute to realize that what I had just witnessed was only a dream, a nightmare. Possibly a fragment of a memory that was lock up inside me. "Ha...Ha..." I sat there trying to catch my breath. A knocked on my door snapped me back to reality. "...Come in." My sister Elena walked in. "Good morning X. I made some breakfast. Come downstairs if your hungry?" She said that and closed the door. "...Yeah sure." I got out of bed and got dressed and washed up. I headed downstairs to the kitchen and noticed Elena was sitting down reading as usual. It looked liked she'd already eaten. An extra plate was sitting at the table. I sat down and ate. X sat down at the table, I guess he noticed the extra plate because he got a confused look on his face for a minute. "I had that dream again." He said. "The one were I die at the end." "..."I sat there for a moment recalling the dream he had told me about many times before. He had it often and it scared him, although he wouldn't admit it directly I could tell by the look in his eye. But he wasn't the only one having nightmares, I had one of my own. "Cold...so cold. My body feels heavy." I opened my eyes and I was under water. I was sinking down in the water with weights tied to my legs. I desperately tried to free myself but it was no use. I looked down but all I could see were the dark depths of the ocean. Little by little I felt myself losing consciousness until I finally slipped away. My breathing stops and my body goes numb. All I can feel is the cold chill of the water against my skin. I die. "Elena." X's hand against my shoulder startles' me. "What is it?" "You spaced out." He stands up and goes over to wash his plate. "So who's the extra plate for?" "JordanM is coming over." "Ok." JordanM was our friend for a long time. The M in his name didn't mean anything it was just something we were used to calling him.
