Chereads / Drown Me In Deep / Chapter 2 - A Slice Of Insanity

Chapter 2 - A Slice Of Insanity

After completely breaking down, I woke up the next morning feeling rather mischievous , I was looking to cause a specific type of trouble today and I loved it.

I immediately jumped out of bed and looked at my fired up eyes and vibrant face ready to cause some trouble. I then got dressed in my usual robes which were ripped , torn apart and worn out because of my cruel mistress who would never provide me with reasonable looking clothes .

I dashed next door but unfortunately I had made such a ruckus that the creaking wooden floors had woken Mistress Amanda up.She had stormed out of her room to see me standing right in front of the fridge and one of my hands on the handle.I let out a slight giggle after looking at her right in front of me with her "I love sleep" t-shirt barely fitting her, pink hair curlers tangled up in her hair and eye mask barely staying on her eyes tilting towards the tip of her lips.

"You think this is funny!You think it's hilarious to wake up at 8 in the morning and steal food from other peoples fridge!?" She snarled at me in her usual bitter voice except it was ear piercingly hoarse. I plugged my ears to and squinted my eyes as hard as I could , after looking at how I was behaving, she once again, stomped over to me , took me by the wrist and threw me outside."You don't deserve to eat! You brat! Stay out of my house until dinner time understand!"

She thundered louder than I had ever heard.I sat there in the loose caramel coloured dust and scratched my head processing what had just happened . Even though I was frowning on the outside when Mistress Amanda threw me out , I was more than relieved to leave the

hell that I would call home for even just a few hours.

I pulled myself up and ran into a forest nearby my orphanage where I had always wanted to visit .I tucked my bangs behind my ear and sprinted head first towards it where I stubbornly tripped and stumbled down a hill laughing.My laugh started out as innocent and genuine but it soon turned into a demonic and mad laugh. My red eye started to glow without me noticing and I could see the reflection of the dark, crimson coloured light projected in a hexagon shape on the ground.I suddenly stop laughing to take a closer look but it had just disappeared as soon as I had stopped my demonic chuckling.

In confusion and distress I strolled back to the nearby lake I was ever so attached to and would sneak out everyday just to sit and embrace its beauty and peace.I threw myself on the ground and laid down while taking a long deep sigh.

"what was that....."

I ponder, as that was the only thing I could think about.I close my eyes but for some reason my blue eye starts hurting more than the bright crimson one.I don't think much of it as I was still very intrigued by what had happened in the forest.I lay there , by the bank and rest as I catch my breath.After a long 40 minutes I get up and sit up cross legged , I grab a leaf and piece of wood which I put off to the side.I grab two stones and rubbed them together assuming some sort of spark would occur.However, I had not witnessed any sort of change after rubbing them together for almost 15 minutes but, I didn't give up that was my strongest trait. Not giving up ,trying my best and pulling through thick and thin with my strong determination and fiery spirit.

I rubbed and rubbed and rubbed until my hands had gotten blisters until finally. A spark .There was a light in my eye which made me even more determined to start the fire.After the constant struggle of rubbing, I had started a fire at last looking at the raging flames in front of my eyes created with my only two hands had made me happier then I had ever been and again, I started to quietly chuckle and gradually, demonic laughs.I started laughing like I had seen the maddest thing anyone could have ever seen . I threw my head back and continued to laugh like an absolute menace.

I had forgotten about why I had created the fire in the first place and basked in the raging flames as they gradually started to spread on the grass but despite that, I had continued to smirk and had saw the projection on the ground again , this time I did not stop laughing as I wanted to know what would happen if I would continue.

Unexpected, my gaze fell towards the bright blue lake shimmering with the suns embrace.My eyes immediately travelled towards it and I couldn't help but look at it in awe and endearment .The fire automatically went out and the projection had also started to wear out as I slowly strolled towards the lake.

Unconsciously , I let out a huge gasp to see what was standing right in front of me...
