The Dark Ones by Makayla Campbell (the rosie project .TXT) 📖

ones and go play. Rheese grabs Chrys and takes her to the kitchen to feed her and Saphrina turns back around to offer a seat on the couch. Harrin and I sit down as she starts speaking, "Arin, Ethan, Tihana, and Thadeus are not my biological children. We adopted them. Rheese and I have had Arin and Ethan since they were 5 months old. Their names were Thevan and Thamarai, they were born into a gypsy camp when their parents had them they dropped them in a town and left to travel with the caravans. But Tihana and Thadeus we have had for about 9 months so it's different for Tihana, so she won't speak. Tihana had been raising her brothers for 5 years when their parents threw them out, there was another boy but he got to sick he died when Tihana was 12, Thad was 3, but Rajeev was 9. The cold got him and he became ill and it hurt Tihana to have to abandon him so Thad and her didn't get what he had. Tihana has had a hard life and we wish for it never to be like that for her again." I suddenly feel so sad for these kids, but then I remember that they are in a very safe environment. Saphrina gets up and walks out on the porch to check on the little ones. As the night progresses I start telling Harrin how I need to get some sleep so after everyone is settled down we head to the room and lay down. Harrin kisses me as I slowly drift unconcious. Four

The next morning, I wake up and he is looking down at me smiling, "Good Morning Princessa,' he leans down and kisses my lips. This is gonna be a great day because I get to wake up in his arms and he is the first face I see, and I smile really big. But at the same time think to myself did I really stay the night with the hottest guy at our school, if not the hottest in the world. 

We head downstairs where we are greeted with a nice bacon and egg breakfast. Saphrina is smiling at us as we come down the stairs. I see all of the kids around a very large table, with Vann feeding Anastasia and Rheese is feeding Chrys. Raven and Lynzi because Raven spilt milk on Lynzi's new blue dress.

Harrin sits down and I take the seat beside him and Leon runs up and gets in his lap while Laynie comes up to me.

"Good Morning, you look like a princess." She says softly with her small curls tucked behind her ears with a headband that matches are green dress. I look at her and see so much resemblance to Harrin. I look at her and say "you look like the princess, babydoll." She smiles big. But just when she smiles my phone rang and I jump to grab it. It's my mom on the phone and she sounds really distressed and it scares me. Harrin must be able to tell by my face that something is wrong because he is staring right at me.

 

-HARRINS POV-

I go to take a bite out of my breakfast when I see Nevaeh's face, she looks worried about something. I don't like to see her sad, it makes me hurt to see her so distraught. So i turn to her and rub her arm and she gets up and runs.

I'm chasing her but dang is this girl fast. She wont tell me what is wrong and I am scared for her. Did something happen? Is she hurt by something I did? What made her run from me?

So I decide to follow her and she is running up the road.

I scream, "NEVAEH!"

 

Five

-NEVAEH'S POV-

Looks back and sees Harrin following me and he is hollering my name but I need to get home. 

I round my street and run in the house and see mom in the floor crying and I panic, "Mom what happened?" I become frantic because she holding Havana's jacket. I freaked out and wondered what happened when she told me, "Your sister is gone, she disappeared." I feel the burn in my eyes as i feel my heart being ripped out. I scream, " Why?" Mom looks at me as the door opens and I see Harrin.

He looks and says, "What happened?" I glare at him. I love him but why does he have to be here. I almost growl at him, " None of y...."  I break down and all I see is black. I lose all my senses except I can hear frantic cries, but I can't make my mouth work. All I manage to do is scream, " HAVANA!!!" I feel someone jump under me. Harrin must be holding me. 

 

-HARRIN'S POV-

I hear her scream and it causes me to jump. THen the next work cleared everything up for me. She screamed her twin sister's name. But WHY? I shake her and softly ask, "Baby what about her? Where is she?" She crumbles in my arms and this is killing me watch her like this. What is going on? I am scared. Mrs. LeCrane speaks softly, " They took her to get back at us. Please she is only human." This scares me beyond anything else.

If "they" is the corrupted then why did they take Havana, Nevaeh told me she was human unlike her and her mom. This makes no sense to me. I ease Nevaeh onto the floor and stand up. Vanessa gets up and walks into the other room with me. She hands me a note....

  

             We took youngest elite in thought you would give elders location.

              So you want youngest back alive then comply if not we change her

              and eat her. But we feast your audience. SO WE KILL HER???

                                                     RYKER, you nyghtmere

 

I laugh when I first see how horrible his grammar was. But then I think to myself and I then look at Vanessa. "She isn't the youngest is she?" She shakes her head. That only means that... my heart stops. NEVAEH. I run to the kitchen and she is gone. But left in her place was a a piece of old dirty paper that said 'want twin, meet at shack.... know where' I then run back into the living room and hold up the note. "Vanessa we have an issue!"
