Thread: The Town

The Sad Scene The driver kept going, soon leaving the scene behind them. Though there was distance now, Kaige could still here the gun as it fired ringing in her ears over and over again. She was upset, but she was still in control of her powers. There was no other alternative. If she lost control now, she would reveal herself and possibly injury someone. Right now the only person she wanted to injure was him. He had threaten to shoot her only family she had left, and for that, Kaige hated him. There were memories there that had been taken from her, and now this man wanted to take away the only semblance of family she had left. Of course she was still angry with Candice, but at least Candice was making an effort to fix things. Ill call her when I get settled. Yeah. Ill tell her a place to meet me at, and she can come. We can start over, after I bitch slap her a couple of times. Kaige smiled at the thought. The cab came rolling to a stop. After the driver told her how much she owed, Kaige paid the man and climbed out. The train station was busy. According to the posted schedules on the monitors, a train was due in soon. Good. She didnt care where it was going as long as it wasnt Eternal Peaks and she was on it. First train outta here, she told the man behind the counter, sliding him the money. Any luggage to check, he asked. Why do I wanna do that, she asked him. I already paid for my ticket. Do I have to work too to get on the train? He gave her a curious look. No miss. Do you have any luggage you want checked before it gets put on the train. Her brows raised as she finally understood. No. Im sorry. Its been a long, long, looooooong day. He gave her a warm smile. Its alright. He slid her ticket back to her, and she quickly snatched it up. As she made her way through the station, weaving around the people, she stopped as she heard the female reporter speaking. The sight in town is a gruesome one. First an escape is reported from local asylum Eternal Peaks, and now a woman lay slain in the street, the victim of a gunshot. Reports are sketchy at the moment, but witnesses say she was speaking with a woman, possibly the escaped patient. Perhaps she was trying to get the patient to return with her. When another person showed up on the scene, a gentlemen, the situation exploded, and now one is dead while the patient is still missing. Kaige stood there, frozen in place, her lips parted as she breathed. A woman. It was a woman who had died. He shot her. She clutched the envelope tighter now, knowing it was all she had left of her. No. It isnt true. It cant be. Its not her. Kaige was unaware as the first poster on the wall burst into flames. One moment a colorful advertisement about a band coming to the town to perform was there. The next, raging flames climbed the wall. People gasped before shouting, Fire! Kaige shook her head. It isnt her. It cant be. It just cant be. Another poster, and another, and another. People were baffled as they ran away. Kaige reached out, grabbing a woman as she neared her, on her way out. Do you have a phone? The woman looked at her shocked. Do you have a fucking phone, she screamed, shaking her. Yes, she told her, her hands shaking as she pulled it out and offered it to her. Call this number, Kaige told her, showing it to her. The woman only wanted to leave. The flames were growing, and she was afraid. Call it now, she yelled, forcing more posters to burst into flames. The woman dialed, her hands shaking. Here, she said, giving Kaige the phone. As she took it, she released the woman, listening to the ringing. When a voice picked up, there was a pause. Kaige took a deep breath, her tongue tracing her bottom lip before her teeth captured it, biting in gently before she spoke. You killed her you bastards. Make no mistake someday, somehow, Im coming for you., she paused. And Im gonna kill you all. Ill burn every inch of that place to the ground. I will not forget this, and if you come after me.,another pause, Ill die fighting you, but.Im gonna take as many of you with me as I can. So stay the fuck away from me. Ive got nothing to lose. I have.no family left. You made sure of that. So stay away from me, or Ill kill you. So if you wanna die,.come after me. In fact, I beg you to. Catch me if you can.
