I’ve begged my dad to let me go to a real school but every time I would ask he would say no and tell me to get out of his face. It was until Mark asked our father if I could attend school, and even though he was hesitant at first he let me go. I was happy but scared at the same time. I was the first kid in my family to go to a public school. I go to my brother’s room to thank him but he isn’t there. I hear my two little brothers yelling outside so I run out of the house and run in their direction. When I get to my brothers I see Mark laying on the ground. I try to pick him up but he is way bigger than me. I just scream for my dad. “Dad, dad, Mark isn’t moving,” I screamed with tears running down my face. My father runs outside and pick up Mark and take him inside. He doesn’t say a word even though I’m asking if he is okay. He goes and puts Mark in his room and he goes into his office. I go into my room and closes the door. Everything goes dark around me while I ball my eyes out. A tall dark familiar figure appears behind me. “Hello, Cory happy to see me again,” the figure said slowly. I could feel my whole body become cold. “What’s wrong Cory, not happy to see me,” the figure said putting its long fingers on my shoulder. I cover my face with my hands and scream, “Leave me alone”. “Cory you’re not happy to see me, well you might be happy to see that,” the figure said as a place in the dark lightens up. I could see something shiny on the dresser. I slowly walk toward the dresser and the figure linger behind me. When I get to the dresser I could see that the thing on the dresser is a razor blade. I pull my sleeve up to reveal all of the scars. All of a sudden as if I am being possessed I pick up the razor blade. My hand slowly press the razor blade against my wrist. My heart races and tears pour out of my eyes. “Stop, stop,” I scream as the figure maniacally laughs. I try to fight back. “Stop, stop,” I scream louder. I get back control of my body and I drop the razor blade. “Fine you will need me some time but Cory you will see me again if my name isn’t Agathon,” the figure said before disappearing and the darkness fades away.
