The Building
Jessi
I look up for a moment at the grey sky, before taking a quick sip of my beer. I spit it back out. Damn companies making bottled shit. Damn friends for buying it. I throw the rest of my beer away. Up ahead I see a building. It�s dark and damp. Do I care? No I do not. I stumble forwards, my sneakers scuffing the ground.
The building is grey and covered in graffiti. Ugh, stupid expressive teenagers. I see a picture amongst the crap. It�s a person. Well it might be. It�s a bloody body. The head rolled into a passerby�s view. Dead. Dark sightless eyes. Beneath it says in what looks like blood �Your next� Pfft. What kind of lame idiot did that? Its probably just red paint.
I walk into the building. On the wall facing me is more writing. It�s in the red paint again. �Your sealing your own doom.� Ah huh� whatever you say weirdo. What�s hidden here? Drugs? Alcohol? I spit on the ground. Then I notice another message under my feet. I shuffle backwards. �There is nowhere to hide� Ok. Now I am slightly freaked out. I turn around to exit this place. There�s no door behind me. Maybe the beer got to my head, not that I had a lot�
I turn to look around the room. No doors. Ok.. I'm probably delirious or some shit like that� If I walk around the room, touching the wall, I should find the door. My hand touches the wall. Only for a second. The wall feels wet. No wonder. There�s some wet paint there. Some red paint.
This is completely idiotic. I swear and look up at the ceiling. �Not much longer left� stares back at me in the same red paint. It�s still wet. A bit drops down into my eye.
�Ahh shit!� I gasp. I shut my eyes and wipe my face.
Suddenly I hear a noise. A voice. �Times up�.
�Bug off� I shout.
I hear footsteps coming closer.
I open my mouth to swear. But the words never come.
�
A girl walks down a path. She could have sworn the guy from the party went this way. She saw the building. He�s probably in there, she thought.
She saw the picture. She saw the words. And she saw the blood. His blood. She screamed.
