《Dark Roses #Wattys2019》Chapter 13
Advertisement
The rest of the time at sixflags went pretty good. We only got to ride about two more rides due to the long lines, but they were the best two rides at this sixflags, so I was okay with that. The car ride home was pretty funny, we mostly jammed out to the new Beyoncè CD, and we listened to Adele. Jackson was feeling better, but it's unfortunate that he missed out on riding the rest of the rides we went on. Well actually, if he has motion sickness then I guess that was a good thing that he missed them.
Right now I was just walking into my house, which was mostly pitch black dark at the moment. It was 12 a.m and Sunday, meaning that I had school tomorrow. It's not like I haven't stayed up that late before on a school night though, I'll be okay. My parents are currently sleeping, and I'm surprised they weren't up waiting for me to come home. Normally if I came home this late, I would be getting screamed at right at this moment. Maybe they had a tiring day today.
Either way, I'm not complaining.
I began to walk upstairs slowly not wanting to wake my parents up. However, when I got to the top I peeked into their room only to see them sleeping. Im still surprised at how they weren't awake waiting for me. I closed their door slowly, and then began to walk towards my room.
Once I got there, I turned on my light. There I saw my beautiful bed waiting for me to lay in it, but I had to take a shower first.
Walking towards my dresser, I grabbed underwear and bedclothes once I got there, and then went to my bathroom to shower. First I looked into the mirror staring into my tired hazel eyes. I've been getting more sleep now and eating more, but I still looked so exhausted, so tiny. The thought of Andrew still crossed my mind everyday.

There's a killer out there somewhere, his killer.
I shook the thought off my shoulders not wanting to go to bed with bad thoughts. I then tied my now chest length brown hair into a bun so I could wash my face, and brush my teeth without any struggles. Once that was over and done with, I ran a nice hot shower for myself. I let the hot water run over my face as I closed my eyes while washing up. Random thoughts were flying across my mind, and no matter how hard I tried, the word "killer" kept coming across it. Flashbacks of that day were playing like a movie for me in my head. His pale skin, his cold hands, his mother crying, "really understand someone's evilness"? What does that mean?!
"Rose" I heard a voice say. I shot my eyes open scared to death expecting to see someone standing infront of me, but there was no one.
I quickly turned the water off and grabbed my drying off towel. When I got done drying off, I put my underwear and bed clothes on, and then walked out of the bathroom.
"It's just your imagination Rose," I quietly said to myself looking around my room, and peeking out of my doorway to look in the hallway.
Seeing no one in sight, I then slowly closed my bedroom door, and turned off the light.
Of course being the scaredy cat I am, I ran to my bed and jumped on it. I took the decorative pillows off, and got under my covers trying to make myself comfy.
I looked at the clock right next to me, and it read 12:56 a.m. Gosh. How long was I in the shower for?
I took my attention away from the clock, and stared at my ceiling. Overall I had a good night, I hope Danny considers asking Nina out on a date, they would make such a cute couple. It's pretty obvious that they like each other, and if anything, maybe I'm destined to be here in this town. Without me encouraging Danny to take a chance with her, maybe he never would. I mean, I still don't know if he will, but there's a possibility.

I'll see at school tomorrow how things go.
My thoughts were disrupted by the sound of shouting and yelling coming from outside. Is my window open?
I slowly got up and walked over to my window, seeing it open, and then looked out of it. There was no one outside, but I automatically knew where the yelling was coming from.
Blaire's house.
His downstairs blinds were open, and him and his mother were standing infront of it having what seemed to be a very loud argument. Their downstairs window was open, which is why I'm somewhat able to hear them.
I tried to focus my attention towards his mom, who seemed to be crying.
Maybe if I listen hard enough I'll know what she's saying.
I held my ear more towards the window, and cracked it open wider.
It all sounded like how you hear people talk when you're underwater, but I did make out one sentence clearly.
"The devil is inside of you!" I heard his mom say.
Blaire began to laugh, and smashed a vase to the ground.
Not only did it make his mom jump, but me as well.
His laughter seemed to get louder, stronger, but then it slowed down. He turned slowly, and looked up at my window.
I quickly took my finger out of the part of the blinds I had it in, and ran to my bed. I didn't even bother to close my window.
My heart was racing, and the yelling suddenly stopped.
I don't know if I was embarrassed, or scared over the fact that he knew I was watching him and his mom argue over who knows what.
The devil is inside of you!
Maybe I should take Anna's words of advice, and talk to Blaire a little less now.
What I saw, definitely wasn't something I was used to.
Continuing on with my thoughts, I got up again from my bed realizing that I can't sleep with my window open due to how cold it is outside-even though I really do not want to close it now.
I steadily walked to my window, and peaked through my blinds again to see if Blaire and his mom were still arguing downstairs.
But the only thing I saw was darkness: all of the lights were off throughout his house.

Sarsaparilla's Scary Super Power. Completed
Sarsaparilla is an older teenage girl living on Mars. And, like many other young people around her, she has a super power. Or, rather, she is supposed to have a super power. Only she has never been able to activate it, she doesn’t even know what her super power is. This annoys her, tremendously. But she hides this behind a really sweet smile. Adalace is another teenage girl, also on Mars. She knows what her own super power is, and it is quite a good one. She is also really cute… so long has she keeps her feelings under control and doesn’t let out anything from her dark past. Teylon is a man, currently living on Earth. He likes to think of himself as still young, even if he is over fifty. He’s a bit smug about his successful career and is thinking of retiring… until a sadly unfortunate event leads him to the conclusion that he had better immigrate to Mars. Immediately. Apparently, meeting one’s own Angel of Death tends to cause people to make profound changes to their lives… Mars society had better brace itself, because once these three people, plus another three also not so quite stable individuals, collide with each other, the resulting explosion is not going to leave anyone on Mars unaffected. This is another Esmeralda, the Angel of Death, story. It follows on from my previous two such stories, but it is in no way dependent on the previous stories. They can be read in any order. It is fully written and proof read (using Word for Windows, no real editor touched this transcript) and comes to about 247,000 words (about 895 Royal Road pages). It is organized into 50 chapters and I will be publishing them roughly one per day. In my writing, there are multiple characters and multiple points of view. Each change in a point of view is introduced by a header, giving the viewpoint character’s name first, and possibly a title. Inside a Point of View section, dialog in italics represents the Point of View character’s thoughts, while dialog between quotes represent normal spoken dialog. This story is very much inspired by the anime A Certain Scientific Railgun. However I have only taken some elements from the anime, and changed everything I took to make my own story, and so it does not count as fanfiction. Yeah, I know, the book cover page isn’t very good. It’s the best I could do, by tracing over a stock image. The two ladies shown are supposed to be Adalace and Sarsaparilla. Ideally I would have liked there to be two images of this pair, one where they are smiling sweetly and looking cute, and one where they are looking really angry and dangerous. But that totally exceeds my graphics abilities. You will just have to imagine it.

Decades after, Alexander Shen lives in Ordo, the Slayer Capital of the world, months away from graduating at his university. Although uncertain about his future, he wishes for nothing but a normal life for himself and his younger sister.
