You're Mine by Fear359 (f/m, qs, grim) I'm still alive, although I can't quite remember what happened to me. I'm trying to remember, but all I can see is darkness. God, why can't I remember what happened? I was ... huh ... I was ... Shit! I remember now! I was walking with Chris in the woods by the swamp, and she was upset with me because she heard a rumor that I was sleeping with Wendy, and when I told here that I wasn't, she exploded, and ran off through the woods towards the swamp, and like jerk I ran after her. I tried to stop her, and tell her, that we were all friends, and that I couldn't sleep with Wendy, or her that's when friendship's get screwed up, and we have been friends to long for me to go and mess that up! Chris being a star on the cross country team was too far ahead for me to explain to her, and in a matter of minutes, she was gone, and I couldn't see her anymore. Fearing the worst, I began calling out her name. No answer, I got scared and ran for all it was worth. We had played in these swamps as kids, but we were always careful, and with the way that Chris was running she was sure to get into trouble if she did not slow down. I came upon the swamp, and saw Chris' foot print in the mud and she was headed deeper in the swamp. Frantic, I screamed her name, and kept running. I must have ran for a mile when I heard a scream, a scream of pure horror, it was Chris and she was in trouble I tried to find her but I couldn't, and then the screaming stopped, and it was quiet. I was running down this path, by the water, when something hit me in the head, and I fell. I tried to stand up but was having a hard time doing it. Whatever I had run into was hard and knocked the living crap out of my head. After what seemed like forever I finally got to my feet I tried to take a step forward, but fell back to the ground. I felt someone behind me, and then heard a laugh, it was Chris! I asked her to help me that something had hit me in the head, and I was having a hard time standing up, and what came out of her mouth shocked, and scared me at the same time. Chris said that I had run into a shovel that she had swung at me as I went walking by. When I asked her why, all she said was, "You're mine!" and pushed me into a small hole that she had dug beside the river. I begged and pleaded with her to help me, but all she kept saying was, "You're mine, you're mine, you're mine!" And then she started throwing dirt on me, and I freaked, "Chris, no, please! Wendy and I are just friends, I haven't slept with her, not now, not ever! Please believe me!" When I tried to speak again I received a mouth full of dirt and then blackness. I don't know how long I have been here, and I don't even know if I am still alive. For some strange reason I feel wet, and clammy, I guess I am dead, but if I am dead how can be thinking and feeling, and God I feel funny. I wonder how long I've been here. I'm so wet, what the hell is going on? I don't understand it! It feels like I'm in a sea of mud or something. God this is a messed up feeling! What's happening to me? I don't know how long I've been here, but I do know one thing, if god gives me the chance to come back, I'm gonna get Chris. I don't care if it takes me the rest of time. I'm gonna get her, I'm gonna make her pay! How long has it been? A month, three months, a year? I feel as though I am growing, and I don't know how, and why, but for some strange reason I feel bigger than I was. I hear something, and it sounds like someone is walking this way. "Help! I'm over here! Please! Can't you hear me?" The sounds are getting closer, it sounds like someone is crying. God if only they could hear me I could get out of here, and I could be saved, even though I am dead. The sound is coming closer, and it sounds like Wendy. Oh please, God! Let it be Wendy. Please let her know that I am here! "Mike, I know that you are somewhere in this swamp, I only wish I knew where! It's been five years since you have disappeared, everyone is heartbroken over it. I wanted to be your girlfriend, and then you wife, so I told Chris that we were sleeping together, so she would leave us alone, but instead she planned a trap, and you were the one to die, and I have to suffer the pain and loneliness now that you are gone. Chris had said that you ran into to the swamp after she told you that she found out about us, and that you were never seen again, I always knew that she was lying, but I could never prove it, but somehow I knew she was. Oh Mike, please answer me! Where are you? Please, give me a sign of where you are! Please God, tell me where Mike is." "Oh my God, Wendy! You are just as crazy as Chris is, and if I could I would get you too, but there is no way for me to do it! Why, why, why? /Wendy!/" "Who said that?" What? She heard me? But that's impossible! I'm dead, right? Well, let's see if she can hear me or what. "Wendy! Can you hear me?" "I can hear you. Who's there?" "Wendy! It's an old friend and I need your help. Can you come down by the river?" "The old river is nothing now but a small muddy stream. Now again, who is out there?" "Wendy, I know you are not going to believe this but it's me, Mike! And I need your help, please!" "If it really is you Mike, tell me, what did you get for me on my 14th birthday?" "I got you a pair of Nikes that your parents said that were to much money." "Oh Mike it really is you! But where are you, and how come you never came home?" "Well, Wendy, that one is kind of hard to explain, but if you come down here you'll see why I didn't come home." As Wendy started walking towards the stream she could see how over the years the river had become nothing more than a small stream, no more than a foot across. "Mike, where are you? I can't see you. All I can see is a small stream, and nothing but dried up mud." "Wendy, I'm close to where you are. I'm just through the reeds in front of you. Just come thorough them, and walk about three feet, and I'll be there." "Okay, Mike, if you say so. I'm just a little scared. I haven't been out here in years, and it's changed so much that I am not sure of what is out here." "Wendy, I have never lied to you, and I am not lying now, please come here." "Mike, where are you? I don't see you, and ... What the hell! Mike, the ground feels funny. It's like it's alive or something." "Don't worry about that. You are almost to me. Can't you see me?" "No Mike, I can't see anything but ... Hey what ... I can't move my feet! Mike, it feels like they are stuck in some kind of glue or something!" "Or something, Wendy! I can't believe that you don't see me. Here, let me help you. Look down at your feet!" "Mike, this is stupid! Why should I ... I ... I ... Oh no! Shit, what is this? Something just grabbed my ankles, and it's pulling me down! Help! Please help me, Mike! I'm trapped in some kind of mud!" "Not just mud Wendy, you are in quicksand, and you are in me. In other words, /You're mine!/" "No, this can't be happening! This can't be happening! /No!/ Please! Someone, help! I'm sinking in quicksand and I need help, please!" "Wendy, go ahead and scream! No one is going to hear you. This is where Chris laid me to rest, and I won't rest until I get you and her down here with me. Do you hear me, bitch? I want you down here!" "No, this can't be! Please, Mike! I didn't know what she was going to do to you! I didn't know! /I didn't know!/" "You knew enough to tell Chris that we were sleeping together, so you are just a much to blame!" "Mike, please! Somebody, help me!" As the quicksand - aka Mike - started to pull Wendy down she started struggling more and more, making Mike's job that much easier. "That's right, Wendy. Keep it up! You'll be down here in no time at all!" "No, this isn't fair! I didn't do anything to you, Mike. All I did was love you, and this is how you are repaying me!" "No, Wendy, if you really loved me, you would have told me what you were gonna do first, and since you didn't you are gonnna pay with you life!" The quicksand pulled Wendy in up to her knees, and once it had a good grip on them, it slowly but powerfully pointed Wendy's feet down, so it could take her all the more quickly. "Mike, please! For the love of God, don't do this! I can get you some help, we could drain this part of the swamp, and take you home, and bury you properly!" "You know what Wendy? No! I kind of like it here, this is kind of fun. I am gonna eat you up until there is nothing left of you!" When Wendy heard that she totally freakd out, and again she started thrashing around making it that much harder for her to get out. The quicksand pulled her in to her chest, and Wendy was finding it harder and harder to breathe. She screamed for help once again, but there was no one there to hear her. The quicksand pulled Wendy in just below her neck, and she knew that she was done for. And then she heard Mikes voice once more. "Well, Wendy, you wanted to see me; well, here I am!" As Wendy looked on in horror she can see two arms come out of the mud, arms that used to belong to Mike. "/No!/" "Ah, what's the matter, Wendy? Don't you like what you see? Well, if you don't like that, then you're gonna hate this!" "No! Help me! I'm sinking in quicks-" *blup* *blup* *blup* One down, and one to go. I can wait. Chris will be here. All I have to do is wait, and ... "Wendy! Wendy, come, this isn't funny anymore! Wendy, I know you are out here somewhere. I saw you come out here. Wendy!" Ah, shit! This is to good to be true, Chris is coming. Now all I have to do is get her, and I can rest in peace. "Wendy, this isn't funny anymore! I know you think that I had something to do with Mike's disappearance and all, but this is not funny at all! God, this place has chanced since the last time I was here. Everything has changed, even the ... Hey! What happened to the river? It's nothing but stream now. Let me see if I can pickup Wendy's trail anywhere." "Chris! Chris, can you hear me?" "Who said that? Is someone out there?" "Chris, come on, you know who it is. It's me!" "Okay, who's me?" "Come over here and see for yourself." "If you think that I'm scared, I'm not. Now tell me who you are." "Alright Chris, it's me, Mike, and I have something that I need to tell you." "Mike who?" "You know, the Mike you killed, the one you buried out here! That Mike!" "Okay, game's over. Who is that, really, and where are you?" "Chrism I am just beyond the reeds, and over to the right. Come, what are you afraid of?" "I'm not afraid of nothing, and you can't be Mike. Mike was lost in here 5 years ago, and I don't believe in ghosts, so you can knock it off with that crap!" "Oh you don't think it's me. Well, Wendy believed it was me, and I told her what happened, and she went to go set some help." "Which way did she go? Because she didn't pass me back on the trail." "Wendy crossed the stream and headed for the main road about a 1/2 mile away, if things haven't changed in five years." "That bitch! I'll get her, too, just like I got you!" As Chris started to run through the reeds, and started to cross the dried mud, her feet slipped beneath the surface of the mud, and the harder she tried to pull free the more her feet sank in. "Alright, fun's over! Who in the hell is out there, and how do I get out of this muck?" "You don't Chris, because, /you're mine!/" "No, it can't be! It really is you, Mike!" "You bet your ass it's me, Chris, and now your ass is mine! Because this, my dear, is quicksand, and you are done for!" As Chris started to struggle in the death trap she only sank deeper into the deadly muck. "Someone, please help me! I'm sinking in quicksand! Please someone help me!" "Chris, it will do you no good to call for anyone. Wendy tried and she is dead!" "Wendy's dead? Where is she? What did you do to her?" "Don't worry Chris you'll be seeing Wendy real soon, because I have her down here with me!" Chris struggled even harder than before, and the more she did the deeper she sank into the quicksand. "That's right, Chris! Struggle, struggle, and struggle some more, because the more you struggle the faster you sink into the quicksand, and me!" "Mike, please don't do this! I'm sorry I killed you, but I was in love with you, and wanted you! But when Wendy told me that you two were sleeping together, something inside me just snapped!" "My god you two are just alike! Do you know what, I never slept with Wendy, she just told you that to make you crazy, so she could have me all to herself! But you went too far, and you killed me, even when I told you the truth. Now you will join me, and her, and you both can have me /forever!/" "No! Please, Mike! No!" The quicksand had claimed Chris up to her chest, and then Mike makes his move. "Chris now don't freak out, but I want you to see me how I am now. Are you ready? Cuz here I come!" "No, God please this can't be happening, this can't be! /NO!/" As Chris stared in front of her she could see this body come up, and out of the quicksand. Made up of mostly mud, hanging flesh and bones, and before she could scream, Mike's body fell on top of her, making Chris sink even faster than before. "Well, Chris, you wanted me, Wendy wanted me. Well, now you both have me for the rest of time!" "No! Please, God! Make this stop! I don't want to die now here, not like this! God! Please, help me, ple-" *glup* *glup* *glup* God, I don't know if revenge is good or not, but thank you. Thank you very much!
