Previous Chapter

Cat was just finishing up placing her books on her shelf in the living room. something about them to her just seemed so relaxing no matter the genre, weather, or time of day. as she admired them she was also thinking about how much time it had taken to collect all of them. but her thoughts where interrupted when she heard Lilly at the door. 'Mom i brought a friend over' she completely stopped her thoughts and went around the corner to greet the two.

'may I come in?' Skywatcher asked with a smile. Cat returned the smile 'oh yes of course, of course come in'

Lilly started introducing the two 'Mom this is Skywatcher i met him at the chapel down town i thought maybe he can bless our house'

Cat smiled at the thought of there house getting blessed ' oh that would be lovely'

'i'm sure the rest of your family is around here somewhere' Skywatcher said. he wanted to meet the rest of them so that he knew who to prey for. it was just how he did things.

'well my husband is with my youngest daughter rite now, and my oldest son...' Cat was cut off when Sonny had walked around the corner 'oh perfect timing' Cat walked him over to Skywatcher petting his head as if he was one of the most precious things she had... well he was after all. 'father this is my first born Sonny, he hasn't been feeling well lately' Sonny went up to Skywatcher who was still smiling.

'good to meet you Sonny' he went to shake Skywatcher's hoof but when he went for it he felt a sharp pain in his head. he winced and walked up stairs without saying so much as a single word to anyone.'how long has he been like this?'

'since we moved' Cat said 'can you check on him father i would but i think he's upset with me'

'why would he be upset with you?' Skywatcher asked

'I didn't tell him about the move until last minute' Cat said in her usual upset tone when ever things got like this with the family. she couldn't help but get upset when ever a loved one was upset with her.

'i'm sure its because of his sickness, ill go see if he's alright' Skywatcher said walking up the stairs. When he got to the third floor he searched for about a minute until he turned around to see Sonny standing in the doorway. He looked sick and angry it was the type of look where if looks could kill then this one would. but Skywatcher kept his smile. 'hello Sonny' the reply he got was the door getting slammed in his face except nothing was even touching the door.

He walked in to look for him and eventually he found him hiding behind a bookshelf 'why are you hiding?' Skywatcher asked.

'i'm not hiding this is just my room i like to be alone' Sonny said in a normal tone, Way to normal after what had just happened with the door.

'your mother wanted me to check up on you' Skywatcher said

'So... let my mother do it' Sonny replied chuckling.

'Well is there anything i CAN do for you?'

Sonny nodded 'yes'

Skywatcher raised his eyebrows and smiled 'you want me to leave?'

'yes' They both laughed and afterward Skywatcher turned to leave and then stopped to say 'If you ever want to talk let me know' Sonny didn't respond but even if he wanted to Skywatcher wouldn't have heard due to the fact that he was already down the stairs.

Later that night Oak had came home telling the others that they where going out to eat which of course it exited everyone because no one can help the fact that food is amazing. It was late out to, so late that it was actually night out but that didn't stop the others. Lilly was the last to leave because she spent over ten minutes looking for her jacket but when she was on her way down stairs she ran in to Sonny.

'Hey Sonny are you coming with us?' She asked but he didn't respond. Instead he ran up the stairs. Lilly shrugged it off and went outside to join her family.

"hey wheres Sonny?' Oak asked

'he's upstairs he said he wasn't feeling well' Lilly replied walking with her family down the street. meanwhile Sonny had just gotten done vomiting in the toilet and when he was done he had gone back upstairs to lay down and probably fall asleep. When he was done however the lights in the house had turned out. he had figured it was because of the wind upstairs until he heard a laugh downstairs.

'Lilly?' no answer he had hoped he would get one but he heard nothing but hoof-steps running away from the stairs
'Liz?' he called but knew it wasn't her. he had just hoped it was her, he knew she absolutely loved to prank people. He continued to stare down the pitch black staircase until he heard a deep voice behind him let out a chuckle. he jumped back into his parents room and in a single swift motion he pulled out his fathers shot gun from under the bed. He always wondered why his father had it but when he was older his father told him he story of how they had been stalked for over a week.

Sonny had sat in the corner of the room for about five minutes until he finally decided to get up and peek around the corner, only to find a tall creature that was pitch black and could barley have any features made out except for its figure. It looked like a tall dragon except it had horns taller than any of the windows in the house.

Sonny bolted up the stairs in an attempt to get away from the creature but it darted after him. luckily Sonny made it to his room and shut the door behind him and locked it. out of breath now he wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned around only to see that the creature was right behind him. Sonny wasted no time pointing the gun at him and pulling the trigger only nothing happened, the creature took the bullet like it was nothing. Sonny shot again but it was the same result.

the creature swiped the gun from Sonny and threw it across the room. The creature proceeded to grab Sonny and throw him on the floor, Sonny didn't know what to do or how to react, finally he shrieked when the creature went inside of him to take possession of his body, the sharp pain Sonny felt was as though thousand of knives where gutting him from all directions. finally it was over and Sonny was left there on the floor to get up. Eventually he did and looked in the mirror to see that one his eyes where pitch black. He went to go put his hoof over his eye but something else caught his attention.

The back of his head was bubbling and almost expanding, but it wasn't. Finally after looking at his deformed look for so long he screamed...
