Elijah
I’m Elijah, my best friend Sophia. Ever since she was stuck in a burning house, she hasn’t been the same, she will get mad easier, she will randomly start throwing things and screaming about whatever is on her mind, and she argues with air. Well, nobody is there. She will get up from her chair, walk about three steps and scream at nobody…
Today, I’m going to dinner with my adult friends ( I’m an adult) and Elijah, I KNOW she will scream at nothing in this place, and we will be banned for something we didn’t do. And the scary part is, this place is a five star restaurant in havenbrook.
We arrived, and when we walk in, alijah was standing there, and the room was silent as a cattail swaying in the autumn breeze. When I walked in, she threw all the glass cups, shattered the plates, and threw the silverware at the waitresses and chefs. I look on the ground and see one chef on the ground with a blank look in his eyes, he was stabbed when she was throwing things and passed away from blood loss. And then she walks three steps and starts yelling again. We sit down and a petrified waitress comes out and takes our order? Why would she do that. I irnore the thought and order a salad not thinking anything of it.
A few minutes later she comes out with a beautiful salad, and beautifully cooked steaks, medium rare, just how they like it. I begin eating, but they are already devouring their steak. Suddenly, alijah smiles as my friend juliennes head falls into her plate, smashing the plate, shards of glass sink into her skin, she bleeds out, but doesn’t say a word, her friend Juliet checks her pulse, and goes pale. Then checks her heartbeat, and with choked up words, she whispers, “ she’s dead”. I’m horrified.
The police arrive and take “alijah” back to the mental hospital, turns out that wasn’t Alijah, that was some phyco who escaped a mental hospital. The real Alijah died in the fire, so why did they find the fake Alijah unconscious in the house dressed as the real Alijah?
It’s been a few months since the incident, everyone’s still horrified, and we don’t talk about it if we don’t need to. It turns out the man acted that way because hurricane Catrina swept him away to here, he claims on the news “he couldn’t breath for an hour each day”, another claim was “ he was drifted across the ocean two times a week, and not breathing made him phyco.
So if he wasn’t the real Alijah, did the real Alijah survive? If so, where is she now…
