Chapter 11
"I missed you so incredibly much Mel! I didn't even know you where going to wake up!" he says smiling and laughs. He laughs different then usual though. More high pitched. Infact, Tad would never say anything so sweet and kind. I pull away from his hug instantly and look him in the eyes. They wheren't even his eyes. Not the same blue green like mine. They where darker with an even larger black pupil in the middle. Not to mention when he smiles, well, he smiles like Steve Ercle on Kariokie night.
"You are not my brother." I say and take a step backwards. I feel Tristan grab me shoulder to steady me. "you are not my brother." I repeat and stare at his alien like smile.
"What do you mean Mel? Of course it's me." and he does it again. That crazy smile. Tad would never say anything like that. He would say I'm dilusional or something walk away.
"Tristan thats not my brother." I say turning around to face him. "He's not my brother, I know my brother."
"Mel, I think you're just a little confused." He says and grabs my shoulder.
"JAMES !" I scream as loud as I can. "James hurry!" I know James would understand and besides, he's the only one with a gun.
"Mel, your overreacting hun. I am obviously your borther, just look at me."
"You look nothing like my brother." I snap "you are NOT my brother!" I turn around and face Tristan again. "You beleive me don't you Tristan?"
"Melissa, I really think you are going crazy." he laughs a little and smiles. The same alien smile as Tad, and I knew something was wrong.
"Melissa!" I hear a shout from behind where camp was set up. I dart backwards to wear James stands being held by two strangers. Ignoring the pain in my ankle I reach him and observe the strangers.
"Well don't just stand there!" he spits at me "it's your turn to save my life!" and that reminds me of the party. When he saved me from death. I remember death, it was horrible and I remember now that I actually did die before. And I wouldn't want that to happen to anybody here and it be my fault because I didn't save them.
I kick the soldier in the face as hard as I could. It HAD to hurt. Doing soccer for 10 years was like my super power. But he didn't even flinch.
"Oh my.." I say and wince. The pain came back and my ankle and now my foot is killing my. This guys face was like a rock and then I relize why. This guy wasn't a guy. Infact, he didnt even have a face.
