beautiful

"Wake up McKenna." a soft voice whispered inn my ear. I cracked my eyes open. A boy about my age knelt by me. He had soft dark brown and short spikey hair.
" You know me?"
" I've watched you all your life. You are our only hope."
"What? Who's hope?" He smiled as if he were looking at a child that had run into him.
"you'll see." I couldn't keep open anad let them fall over my eyes.
" McKenna! Oh Mckenna!!!" An other voice cried. i moaned lifting my hand off my eyes. It was Austin. He ran to me and clasped my face.
"Mckenna!" tears ran down his face and then, suddenly, his were crushing against mine. I lifted my hands to push at him. i was too weak and tired and hungery and wet.

caught

I sprinted deeper into the forest. My heart ached and pondered, who, or what was this thing? I ran until a giant boulder sat, proudly towering over me. 

I gasped helpless and hopeless. My hands twisted in my hair and tugged desperately for an idea. 

A deep growl, like a wild dog rumbled be hide me. fear spread like poison through my body. I 

slowly turned to face where the growl should have been, but was not.

 The growling stopped. The trees shuttered in a breeze i didn't feel. I shivered as the trees 

seemed to reach out me. The animal wimped like someone had struck it. I caught my breathe. 

 I shivered as my finger tips touched the giant Boulder. The creature huffed giving it self away.

 "You can make" I told myself trying to calm my racing heart.

"It's now or never" my mother's rang in my head. "If you don't try you will always regret it." 

"I know, I know." I used to say. Courage ran through my erasing the pain and the fear. Finally, I pushed off the stone sprinting toward the trees. wishing i would make it. The creature yelled,and chased after me. The animal soon feel far behind snarling at me. A smile twitched on my lips.  Yes i cried in my mind. Hope vanished as quickly as it appeared. At that moment I fell with a thud. Everything went fuzzy. My family, and friends flashed before me. Austin's clear, crisp image smiled down at me. Before i was totally whipped out, I heard panting like dog, a human shadow covered what i could see. i lowered my head. ready.

shadow

Hot tears quickly dried on my face. Branch's tugged at my cloths and the brush cut my arms. the tears stung my wounds as they fell. I kept running. I ran about, not even close to half a mile when I stopped by a creek. 

A shiver ran down my spin. Someone had come to find me. 

"Go away!!" I screamed . I started up on my feet to sprint, before i did a whoosh sound, like the wind, came from where the guy was standing. But was he a human at all?

It was hard leaving them. My mom was going to go nuts. But i had to find.....the truth, the truth. I wasn't normal and i never would be me again. I broke into a cold sweat, tears stained my face, and made it hard to see. The cold air nipped at my nose and cheeks. what seem like an hour past. I saw bright light that reached out to me. My heart over whemed , i felt my face grow warm. I a smile cracked on my face. I sprinted harder.

the sun peeked in the widow and spotlighted me.

"Morning?" I groaned. I pushed myself out of bed and ripped my palstic wal-mart bag open."Sim-jim." I said. my mouth water as I picked at the wrapper."Yum."  I froze. It was like the shock after your favorite ballon pops or when some one touchs your nack with a cold finger.

"Ricky rembered." I gasped. A faint Mckenna came from some one out side. 

Get out!!! My head screamed get out get out HURRY!!! I clutched a handful of jerky and ran.

The BIG run AWAY

sighing, I pushed the message button on the phone.

" Um Mckennaaa." Megan's worried voice filled my head. "Are you okay? You haven't been acting normal for a LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG time. If you need a hug, just come over. And uhhhhh I'll make you some good stuff okay? O.K......... bbyyyyeeeeeeee...wait do you have some hot cocoa i could-"

"Mckenna! OH Mckenna, It's me Austin please-" 

"Delete." I said to the phone and hung it up. 

"Bed time." mom said. I squeezed the pearl when mom started to cry. I didn't think it's because of dad, I always thought it was for Cami's sake. She was crying because Cami was and confused in the sadness.

I can't take! My head was screaming. I ran across the hall and woke Richy. 

"What...?" he grumbled

"I'm leaving." I knew he wouldn't realize What happened or were i was going until sunrise and I wasn't going to tease him about the woods tonight.

"Kay." He mumbled. "Wait!!" I froze. 'There a cabin on edge of  woods. you go there. It be safe..." He layed his head back down. I waited until the giant snoozes filled the room. I pushed out my suit case, climbed out the huge hole in the window and disappear. I deserved it. His death was my fault after all. death was my fault. Death......

the run away

The lock on the office door clicked to lock. Kay Lynn screams were now mumbles of high pitched noise. I Curled up into a ball on dad's leather sofa. Dad's warm face appeared for the thousand time. He smile down on me and mom, with the sun be hide him, making him teeth glitter. Mom hugged me close and smile at him. A flash a sunlight bleach his body and he was gone.

 The bright sun blinded me as it shone in the window. The figure that was supost to be dad, was his life size cardbroad clip of Donny asmond. My hands curled around the pale pink pearl I got from mom. Dad wanted me to have it she said. But was that ture?

next next

All the voices that I should have heard were muted. They all mumbled in a language i didn't, couldn't understand. Lunch wasn't any better. Jessica, Tris, Shelbey, Emilee, Sidney, Nick and Olivia, even Reed, crowded my space, waving there hands in front of me and Whispering in that language I didn't understand. I could stand it anymore. I couldn't think about him I just couldn't. I broke the circle and sprinted down the hall. I hide in the bathroom. Soon after I hide the cold tears rolled down my face. The bell rang and I sped to English. I didn't want my friends that were as worried as my mom when Cami got lost in Wal-mart to see me. Not like this.

update

So I actully added and killed some charaters. I kept nick but he's McKenna's cousin not her friend. I killed genine and Alison I am saving them for later :). so ya.

In the story she is really depressed. so she is like sad all the time. if you want to skip ahead to where she runs away said yes.

next

"MCKENNA! GET UP HERE RIGHT NOW." Mom's voice made me jump and tip the chair I woke in. Sluggishly I crawled up the stairs. "Why isn't this clean?" she said as soon as my was visual. A gaint puddle of milk dipped off the table

"I didn't do it mom." I yawned.

"Well who could have done it? Don't blame it on Cami."

"Oopsy." Cami whimmered suddenly be hide me. I felt her little hands shake and she wimpered again. 

"CLEAN IT!!!" mom shouted. she stromed into her room. Then Ricky entered the dining room.

"Mom is just sad about.......you know. She just can't bear it." Ricky sighed. He got a rag and a roll of paper towels. He knew I would do it and didn't want mom to explod again.

I ate lucky charms, got dressed, and walked to school. Mom yelled at me when I was eating my cereal, when I was getting dressed and she yelled me out the door. I dragged myself to school.

the title

For the tite, should i do Welcome to reaity, or This is not a dream, or, breaking away or, In plain sight (I'll tell you about that one later.) or, Be hide your back or, What ever? or give me your idea. And I killed shawn and Johnny

distress

The Dreams didn't come, but images of my dad floated through my head like a digital slide. Only with 10 pics going at once, like in movies. I couldn't stand it. I ripped the sheets off. Cold sweat, tears stained and titened my face.
"Mmmmmm." I held my breath. A shadow flashed across the dimmed wall. "Mmmooooeeeww." Mrs. snow quietly poked out of the closet with Ginger trailing be hide. I sighed with releif, my heart sighed in disappointment.
" What are you doing here this late Snow? takeing Ginger to bed huh." Snow's red eye's glidered a yes. She left soon with her baby after I stopped staring at her. I couldn't get to sleep without thinking of him. It was hopless.

" He's going to Iraq." Mom face was shocked in a mask of terror. Then she ran. Kay Lynn's eyes filled with tears. Alison bowed her head.

"I am sorry." The soldier whispered. He tipped his helmet and left us. We went to bed sadly. My friends stayed the night to comfort my family. Soon everyone was calmly, asleep, but me. I didn't feel sleep or want it. All I really wanted was dad's smiling face and his big bear hugs. I clinged to the thought. I knew reality would soon take it away. I closed my eyes, waiting for the dream. 

McKenna but she has freckles..

 just look at the pic.

3, LOOK!

The whole family (every one but Lilac and dad,) Crowed around the table. Kay Lynn,(Kay lynn is in 1oth grade) Cami, Ricky, and my friends, (since birth,) Nick, and Jennine. They don't have lunch with me. A solider glumly shook in the corner. I was going to ask about him, but the murmurs of excitement took my attention. I rushed to the table and ripped the envelope open.
"Why does she get to do it??" Whined Cami
"SHH." mom said. "Read it out loud Ricky." He proudly grinned, then snatched the letter out of my hands.
" Dear Family,
All went well in South Africa. Right now I have all ready crossed the border line of Egypt. It was magnificent! The only problem was it was amazingly hot. I think Kay Lynn would like it. It's fill with history and ancient story. The part is it's like glass. It's very beautiful. Right now we are driving through Israel. It amazing too I think Ricky would like it. It's beautiful place for photography. I have to be on my way. I am going to......" Ricky gasped. "He's....he's.." Ricky stammered
"He's what!?!?" mom yelled frantically.

chapter 4, The letter

I was still shaking when I walked home. I shivered and shock with excitement and cold. A cold wet drop fell on my freckled nose. Then two more fell on my arm. Soon it was pouring. I ran for shelter. I could not find any, I just walked in the cold rain. An umbrella shielded me, suddenly. I turned and found Olivia's smiling pink face and Megan small tan one.
"I thought you might need us." Megan said grinning like she had done something mischievous.
"You guess right." My voice was boring and life less. We walked until my mother came and picked me up for important reasons.
"What now ma?"
"We received a letter from your father!" I gasped unconsciously. Mom babbled about the letter and her whole boring day.
"Where's the letter?" I irrerupted.
"Oh you will see." the car wasn't parked when I jumped out and sprinted inside. Mom trailed after me.

The new part to chap. 1

Hello dorks." Paipaye suddenly there spitting at us.
"hello annyoning robot-ateron." Livvy replied
"Ooo. Nice comback. But you could lose the ateron." Emilee complemented.
"Excellent Olivia. What would be more excellent is if you would jump in to a hazarous vat of liqud." Olivia's eyebrows crunched up and spread out her arms.
"Well, you can go cry me an ocean of obnoxious dark water. Cause I ain't going no where." Olivia snapped her fingers.
"At least I don't make blunders. I am a prototype of dazzling superiority." Paipaye gleamed, touching her face.
I was not goung to let this turn into a word fight and enither was Megan.
"Wait! I don't know what you just said." She cried. Pushing her arms in between them.
"It means-" Paipaye started
"But I am going to look in my thethsaurusth." Megan took a pocket sized thesaurus from her pocket and started read "Umm. Blunders... nope. That one sounds like a grandma word. Dazzling superiority. Umm .No. Those are not really words Paipaye." She looked at paipaye With sad eyes "I am deeply sorry."
"THEY ARE IN THE DICTIONARY NOT IN THE THESAURUS!!" Paipaye neerly screamed the words. Then she stromed off. Megan turned to us with a misgvous smile and Olivia was grinng away.
"And thats how I beat Paipaye, with my Thethsaurusth." Her head bobed and her eyebrows bounce proundly.
The bell rang shaddering the triumphant moment. I picked up my books and headed to English.

Sweet

"Nope." He smiled even wider. He wrapped an arm around me, carrying half my weight.

"so, where are ya going?"

"Office."I limped down the hall still hoping not to puke. He stopped half way there. I pushed on his arm. My arms felt light and useless, and his arm didn't move.

"I need to talk to you, alone. Meet by the oak at 6." He whispered. Looking at me meaningfully he added."Are you gonna be O.K?"

"Fine."

"Austin Green! What have I told you? Blah blah....." He pulled a face and was gone. I watched the place he had been, waiting for him again. I knew I needed some help. My legs buckle and caved in. So I sat in the hall the rest of the period waiting for help.

I pushed myself up and fell backwards into his arms.

"Uh.....hi Austin." I said stupidly I looked up into dark blue eyes. He smiled his wide smile that I loved

"Hi Mckenna. Are you that 9th grader I was yelling at?"

I bit my lip and tried not to look down. I shuffled down the great halls that seem giant now. I shook and wobble down the hall.
"Hey Mckenna! Wait up!"
No no no no no no no no! Not now. I prayed he wasn't talking to me. Maybe he was yelling at another Mckenna.
"Mckenna Edwards!" He yelled. Nope it was me. I tried to walk faster but I ended up on the hard tile.

chapter 3, conscious

At school, a whole bunch of kids asked what I thought about my sister getting married. I ignored them all. At lunch I zoned out while Mary chatted with Olivia and Emilee about school and cloths, and Cassidy ate her pudding, and Reed stopped to say hi and Sidney chattered in my ear, unaware I wasn't listening. I walked up the stairs toward my next class. A burning pain stabbed my arm.

"GA!" I gasped. Blood oozed out of skin. I clutch my stomach and sprinted into drama. "Mrs. Mecham." She whirled around.Her dark hair flopped behind her when swiftly step to me.

"Is something wrong?"

"Yes. I am not sure I will be able stay. I'm feeling.........bad."

"O.K." She said sent me to the front office.

last

I watched the sun disappear into a foggy mist. Most guests had left, but the ones who stayed, I guessed were family.

"I hope you have a good honeymoon."

"I hope so too." Lilac said kissing my head.

"Mckenna. Time to go." Mother called. I sighed and slowly trudged to the mini van.

#3

I felt my heart sank. Was this shadow stalking me? What would it want with a messed up, plain girl that stabbed her teddy bear? (I should probably stop doing that.) Why was it starring at me of all people? It should have been starring at Kendra, My brother's red haired girl friend. Never mind, I needed to congratulate Lilac on her new life and congratulate her husband. I grabbed a big sugar cookie on my way to the reception line. I was thinking about the shadow on the hill, when a sharp squeal broke my train of thought. "Mckenna!!" Lilac squealed and pulled me into her grasp."I didn't think you would come."

"Lilac was talking about you all afternoon and she kept worrying about you." I looked up into her husband's face. His dark blue eyes where bright with laughter and smiled down at me as if he were forgiving me, happily. "I finally get to meet you. I am so sorry, I didn't greet you politely. It's a pleasure." He said bowing. Then he kissed my hand. Lilac laughed and I joined her.

"Charmed." I replied, also bowing.

"You so funny." She giggled. She patted his curly, chestnut, hair and hugged his shoulder. I smiled, sent her my wishes, and started to ponder the mystery that faced me

#2

"Oh! My little angels!" A voice called out from outside.
"Great." I mumbled. Aunt Maire Anna was the most annoying and most dreadful aunt There was.
"Are you chicken?" Ricky asked.
"Richard! Oh my you have grown!" She sang. Ricky groaned and stepped into my aunt arms. I found a way out though the front seat. I pushed past relatives and friends looking for the food line or an exist from the eyes of mother and Aunt Maire Anna. I found some tables and some space to relax. The cold, mental fence was lined with white and pink ribbons and bows. The whole yard flowed in white. Little girls laughed and squealed as the boys chased them. I beamed at their laughter and laughed when a little girl fell in shock as she was pecked on the cheek by a dark haired boy. An other shaped appeared on the horizon. It was sitting, looking at me. I gazed at him for a while.
"Over here Mckenna!" Called Tristen's soft voice. I turned to wave and when I looked back, He was gone, just like the other.

chapter two, the wedding

We drove across golden field's of hay, and corn. We drove by piles of pumpkins that were being sold at drug stores. I watched one man pick a pumpkin as big as his daughter's little body. I sighed. I loved how the leaves change at this time of year, and I love to watch the little girls squeal when they saw the perfect pumpkin gleam and shimmer in the sun.

"Mom, did Lilac want to have a wedding so far away from home? Is it just because she hates it when I invent my "football giant" friends over?" Ricky joked. Cami slapped him on his cheek. ( she probably learned that from me.)

"Of course not silly," Cami said trying to be mom like. "She just wants us to go there so we can eat and Mr. lorly is waiting too." Mr. lordly was Lilac cat, unfortunately, it, well it died in a  laundry accident. While those three  blabbered about something I watched the mountains.a dark shape appeared. A figure stood on a small hill staring at our car, or was it looking at me? The sun blinded, and I squinted harder, but it was gone. I tried to guess what it was, but nothing came to me

7th I guess....

She glanced at the dress.

"Why not? I think it looks cute." 

"Yes, It's nice, but we are not going to Lilac's funeral!"

"Your wearing it." Mother commanded. She glided back up stairs. I was so ticked that I had to wear the stupid dress, I stabbed my teddy bear with my pocket knife. It was the 4th time this week I had been this mad. So I put on the stupid dress and some black high heels. I would have put on a pearl necklace, but people wear that to funerals too. I stomped up stairs. When saw little Cami, I felt so sorry for her that I forgot my pain over my own dress. She wore a dark violet dress, that was slim on her chest all the way down to her hips and then it puffed out about 2 feet at the bottom.

"Mckenny!" She screamed stumbling over to me. She stopped half way to me, turned around, put her hips. "Mommy, why you have to make my dress so big." She pouted. 

"I told you big dresses are not right little kids." said my 16 year old brother, Rich. Mom glared at him.

"Because, come on we are going to be late." She said pushing us out the door and into our light blue, mini van.  

6th

"Hi Mickey!" My little sister screamed as I walked in.

"Hey Cami, girl friend." 

" I was ah school and I got to pet Mrs. Wily, the turle in my class. an I got to fee it." She said bouncing on her toes.

" You got to feed Mrs. Lily?"

"Uh-huh."

"Great" I exclaimed. She screamed thrilled and bounced away. 

"Honey!" Mom yelled.

"Ya?"

"Come here please." I chucked my things at the couch. I jogged down the stairs to my room. 

" What do you think of this dress. Oh its the wedding." She babbled holding up the dress. It was short and the color looked purple and black mixed together. 

"I can't wear that!" I burst out jabbing my finger at it.

4th

"Dude, are you okay? Nothing to do with the brain right?" I teased.
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"Ya."
"Positive?"
"Uh-huh." She never got any of my jokes. I snorted and Bite off a chunk of apple. 
"So. was up with life?" Megan panted. A shiver ran through me. Her hands were warm, and moist, and squishy.
"Did you work to hard in P.E.?" Sidney pondered.
"No I had to make plans with Adrianne, Mckenna's sister, She's the one in 7th grade. I had to sprint all around the building to find her." Why would she make plans with Adrianna? She all most never stops to chat with her. I was about to ask when it hit me. Today was the wedding, to be exact, my sisters, Lilac. Her actual name is Camellia Louise Edwards, Which would soon be changed to Camellia Louise Edwards Harrington. The bell rang shaddering my thoughts. I picked up my books and headed to drama.

3rd

"Cassidy, you bring the weirdest things." Emilee laughed.
"Hey guys." Sidney plopped down on the right of me. "Wait, wheres Megan?" 
" Hi guys!!" Megan squealed. Stretched her hand up so high, I didn't believe it was possible for her. She glided through the hall. As she was about to reach us, her foot caught under her and she fell, crushing onto the white tile. She lay there on the tile. everyone was silent.
"I'm okay. Don't worry." Megan called. Olivia, Emilee, and Sidney burst out giggling like they were being madly tickled. Cassidy tried to laugh, but it came out muffled. I even let out a snicker. Megan was just, well, Megan, a spazz. Just like most of my friends. Megan's cheeks flushed with a soft pink color. 

2nd

"Ewww." She giggled, watching the cheese stick to the plate. " Oh my gosh! I think it just moved!"

" You know what, I not all that hungry anymore." I said pushing the plate as far as my arms could reach."Well, what did you bring Cassidy?" She lifted the lid of her lunch box. 

Pulling out a small container she said "Peanut butter." she smack her lips. " And kitkats." she added. Before I could make her feel embarrassed, Emilee came skipping into the area. Olivia tagged along be hide her.

"Hey." Emilee waved.

" Whats up people of America?" Olivia cut in. She had a stupid, smug, smile on her face like she Had won a trophy in the arts of English or something.

"What did you bring this time Cassidy?" Emilee asked staring at the brown goo. Cassidy dipped her finger in again.

first part!! YES

I leaped out of my seat sprinting to the door as the bell rang. If you were one of many who didn't get in line soon enough, you would have to wait five or more stink'n minutes for your lunch. I ran to the nearest stairs. In my struggles to get down stairs I mowed over a couple seventh graders and an eighth grader. I heard some "Heys" and "what the heck"; one guy cursed at me, which I yelled "shut up" back at him trying to make it stab him. Hey, It's Jr. high. What are you goin do?

" Yes!" I whispered . The pizza line was short. Very pleased with my accomplishment, i got in line. I gave the lunch lady five bucks for my account.I finally made it out of the crowded kids into the hall. Looking around the great hall, I spotted Cassidy.

"Over here!" She boomed waving me over. She motioned me to sit by her. I slid across the floor over to were Cassidy and Sidney were sitting.

"Hey."

"Whats up Mckenna?" Asked Cassidy.

"Pizza." I said looking down at the triangle glob of cheese.
