You Re All Surrounded Novels & Stories

December 25, 2011 Stephanie's Perspective The same old songs we're exploiting the city, fireworks were giving light to the skies and roads. I and my mom were watching and listening to them as we drink our wines, sitting comfortably outside our house, near the pool, relaxing and enjoying how people welcome the day of Christmas. *Beep* I heard my phone's ringtone, I got my phone that was placed on the table right next to me.

She could even hear some people in the crowd asking, "When did the Spark Girls become five? I thought they were four. What happened? What happened?" As she waited for the event to begin, she spotted Zach in the crowd, causing her eyes to widen in surprise. She hadn't expected him to show up. His arms were folded, and he seemed to be hiding, but his gaze was fixed on her. Her heart started racing, as she didn't want to disappoint him no matter what. The first girl began singing, and Candy stood close by. The crowd fell silent, captivated by the melodious voice. After she finished her verse, the next person took their turn.

Chaos. That’s all I can feel. Utter chaos. There are sounds and voices all around me. I can’t make out what they are saying, there are so many of them and they are talking over each other. I try to tell them I can’t understand them, but my voice is drowned out by theirs.

And at times when you're too weak, I'll be your strength. We're a team. You need not to face a storm alone cause I'll always be with you. I love you with extreme certainty, Maze Johnson-Thornton. We still have one wedding left. But for now, I want you to take my hand and begin again. Let's love each other, all over again." THE END

Can they really go this far? One of the masked figures stepped closer. I couldn’t see his face. I didn’t know if it was a man or woman. But their voice was calm. Too calm. “Don’t fight it,” they said. “It will all be over soon.” They all surrounded me. Each one in those eerie skull masks, cloaked in black. They moved in silent unison, stepping into a perfect circle around my bound body. I could barely lift my head, but I could feel the shift in the air. Creepy.

“Didn’t you say that you’d do an invisible glamour?” “I did it. You can see me, cause you’re part of it, but no one else can. However, keep in mind that even if we are currently invisible to people, our surroundings aren’t.

The summer began, damn, and there is so much sun outside that the temperature is too high. "AURORA!" A sound grabbed my attention. I rolled my eyes. "Aaaahhhhhh!"

His warm body was curled around mine with his arm wrapped around my waist, holding me close as he slept.
