Ω J.J. Winchester
Fight for all YOU know
When your BACKS against the wall
Stand AGAINST the liars
J.J. sat in his room. It was the only place that he ever really felt the safe comfort any more, and even then, he wasn’t sure of what to think of it. There was something going on in the world, and he felt like he was in on it. What though, he wasn’t entirely sure. With Ben gone and Sammi gone though, something seemed eerily wrong. They both had kids, and there was something up with all three of them, even though nobody wanted to say anything. Even though J.J. didn’t want anything to do with it, it was nagging and haunting him in the back of the mind. This idea of college and wanting to get away had never been so strong in his life, and yet, he feared that he might not able to do it. He also wondered how much longer his Dad would act like everything was fine and normal, how much his mother would act like it as well. The comings and goings of his siblings though had left everything silent, and with it, so did the distractions go which had been what he had been relying on. But now, there was nothing, and once again, J.J. felt that familiar sense creep upon him like shadows growing in the light and darkness.
Cerulean eyes glanced towards the clock, reading late into the night, or perhaps early in the morning, depending on how one wanted to look at it. He had been getting away with naps, but even now, they seemed to do little to put him at ease. There wasn’t anybody to talk to, they were all gone, and he didn’t want to talk to his parents. There was that desperation to still feel normal, that everything was just part of his imagination. Glancing down at his scares from a year earlier though, J.J. knew it was all a lie, and there was only so much longer that he could avoid confrontation. The thought made him frown as he rested his head on his hand and his elbow on his desk as he started to scroll through some things on his computer, trying to keep himself from drifting off. Absentmindly, he reached for another energy drink but alas, there were none. Grumbling slightly, J.J. pulled himself up from his chair now and walked to his door, pulling it open and taking a step out into the hallway. The lights were out, only the faint glow from the first floor traveled up the stair case.
There was a cry of a baby, the sound shocking J.J. and nearly caused him to jump out of his skin. He glanced in the other direction now, towards his sister’s room, “Sammi?” Nah, it couldn’t have been her, she wasn’t coming back, “Ben?” Although, he would have thought that Ben’s son was past the point of shedding tears. He took a step towards his siblings empty rooms, another baby’s cry screamed and seemed to cut through the stillness of the air, but it didn’t stop, it just kept on growing. Sammi wasn’t home, she wasn’t, yet all of the sudden, there was light pouring through the crack of the door. Frowning, he walked over towards her door and pushed it open, glancing in. The lights were on, and her desk chair had just stopped spinning. There were no sounds of babies though, not anymore. Once again, everything was quiet. Then there was a sound out in the hallway, it sounded like something was scuttling across the floor. A weird repeated sound of something that had more than four legs, sharply, he turned and stared back into the hallway, just in time to see something disappear around the corner and down the stairs.
He didn’t know what it was, but it gave him an unsettling feeling, a shiver running down his spine. Turning off the lights, he shut the door behind him and slowly, crept his way along the hallway. For a moment, he paused at his door, glancing back into his room. He could just go back in there, shut the door, nothing would happen. Yet, he saw something go down stairs. Hesitantly, J.J. moved forward again and kept close to the wall until the bend, where everything started to go down to the first floor. Glancing down, the lights were still on down stairs, and he thought he heard the crack of a bowl against the floor and then some of that same scuttling sound, “Hello?” he called down, “Is somebody down there?” Whatever movement there had been, it had stopped. There was nothing but silence until there was a creak right behind him, “I’m right here,” came a low gravelly voice. Hair on his skin raised and J.J. felt his heart stopped and he turned quickly, throwing up his arm. Something dug right in with a heavy strength and slammed into him, sending towards the stairs backwards as the world slipped from underneath him.
J.J. woke with a start, his hand slamming down on the desk as he managed to keep his head up right. The glow of his computer was the only thing that illuminated the room, well, that and the blaring red of his clock that read 3:30am. He shook his head for a moment, trying to wake himself up as he felt a stinging pain. Glancing down at his arm, he saw that it was bleeding. Five long gashes traveling down it, “Fuck,” he muttered, getting up quickly now as he clamped his hand down on his arm, heading out the door. How could he had fallen asleep? He hadn’t even realized that he had, and all of this was rising up again. Why now? What could possibly going on how, like dejavu, he moved down the hallway now and as he hit the top of the stairs, J.J. stared down them. His blood running down his arm and droplets hit the floor in a sound that seemed to fill up his ear. One again, there was a sound from behind him, startling him and he turned quickly, side stepping as something grabbed at him, and once again, he tripped, only this time he didn’t wake up, because he was already awake.
He fell down the stairs, his world spinning around him and it didn’t come to a stop until he slammed into the wall, causing it to shutter, and above him, a picture dropped. He didn’t even move, only cover his head and neck as it fell, the glass shattering over him and around him. Cerulean eyes glanced to the top of the stairs again, a shadow was moving. His eyes remained locked on it for a moment before he tried to move, his body groaning in protest and his skin prickling at the thought of sliding over ridged glass as he moved away from the stair case and out into the living room. Sheer adrenaline was pumping through him, but also the shock and for some reason, he felt himself wanting to drift off again, but perhaps that had to deal with the blood spilling out onto the floor.
STRONGER then before
