Story Notes

Summary

Ellie had always felt a strange presence around her watching her. Although they never came to her. Loneliness was just part of her life. Living on the streets was no joke, hungry, tired and weak heading to the local petrol station. Ellie walked into the gloomy toilet, the dingy mirror showed her pale skin, eyes beginning to hollow due to the lack of sleep and nutrition. Ellie’s Auburn hair now messy, sat in a bun on her head, baby hairs stuck out curling by her forehead. Whilst blue eyes looked back at her now dim and dry missing their precious light. Ellie washed her face and breathed in and out, processing what was to be a long cold night. Ellie left the toilet using the little energy left to buy some coffee and snack. Cheapest that was available. Taking a big gulp of the coffee Ellie walked out of the station.. the night felt dark and cold. Turning around to the back alley existing the petrol station Ellie felt herself being pushed against the wall. Hands big and powerful grabbed her neck forcing it to the side. Sharpe daggers pushed into her neck as a warm substance drizzled down her neck. Then she felt a warm liquid enter her mouth just as the world turned dark. Was this the end? Had it finally come to take Ellie like she had wished?
