Story: |{"The Bridge"...Enter Our New World}| (Vampire Story) [Chapter 1]

Seeing as it was a regular Friday, Wynifred (Wynie) decided to make it an adventurous Friday. Wynifred's hatred for school was like her hatred for seafood. She just didn't like it. The new found plan for today was to "play" sick. Yeah skip school today. At promptly at 6 am she texted her best friend Contance, but we all know she doesn't want to be called that, Conney. Although that name suited her perfectly. Conney was always up for missing school. I mean who likes 12th anyway. You know that you are just days and weeks to be free from school. Well at least if you didnt go to college. Don't get me wrong they're weren't "bad" per say, but they did like to switch it up from just the plain universal Monday or any day for that matter.
"Hey get ur butt up we r goin on a lil adventure." Wynie clicked send and set her plan in action.
You might say well how does a girl get out of school. Conney knew the plan, but do you? What does every girl has as her secret weapon? Yeah that's right. Tell your mom you have "girl" problems.
Wynie hoped that she could get away or wanted to go.
"Hey, ya meet me @ 8 by "the bridge." Conney replied back.
Wynie got out of bed still groggy. It took her awhile to wake up in the morning. Shower, dress, make-up, then hair. The usual routine, not much you can change about those things. She wore light blue jeans, a black american eagle shirt with the AE logo and puma snickers. She only wore them because her and Conney were going to the forest.
So Wynie set off you meet Conney at "the bridge." Don't get me wrong it wasn't actually a bridge. Living in Astoria, Oregon gave them a lot of forest to explore. "The Bridge" is a walking through the beginning of the forest. It felt like walking over a brige into another world. With beautiful flowers, animals, streams, and waterfalls seemed all part of this fairy land.
"Hey, girly!" Wynie called approaching Conney.
"I'm so glad that you decided today needed a change."
"I know." Wynie said giving Conney a hug.
Today was the day that Conney's boyfriend, Ryan came back after serving a year in Iraq. She didn't want to see him let alone go back home. You may wonder why, but he used to now treat her so well. If you catch my drift. Like he used to hit and abuse her.
"I'm aways here if you need me." Wynie said remember how they had started being friends in the first place. "Hey remember Mrs. Kunkel's class in 7th grade?"
"Yeah that's when we first started being friend. Good times. Good times. Yeah we knew of each other just we really didnt know that much about one another. Wasn't the first time we talked the time you read the sentence that I wrote? I'm surprise we didn't get kicked out we were laughing so much."
"Oh I know. Wasn't the sentence like....'I was jeering the teacher.' Yeah that was it. And you know with our minds that got all twisted." [A.N. That is actually how me and my best friend met.]
They both started laughing so hard they had to stop walking.
"So are we going to walk or just stand here laughing all day?" Conney didn't object with the laughing part.
"Aaa...no. Lets go. I don't have to be back until 3 so we can stay in here all day if you want. I brought some things so we wouldn't have to leave."
Wynie showed Conney the snacks and drinks she had brought in her bag.
She never left home without it that had her notebook and her trusty pen in it. Blue of course. Her bag hung across her chest. It was basically a messengers bag. All Wynie wanted to do was be a writer. To you it may seem childish, but Wynie kept a journal. Not a normal journal saying who she liked and stuff it was more to document what her and Conney did on their little adventures.
"Hey, look there is a path?!" Wynie was confused to see a path deep in the woods. She thought that no one went in here.
"Lets follow it."
"Maybe we'll get to see fairies and leprechauns!"
One look at each other and they burst out laughing.
They laughed so hard they couldn't breathe. Tears were beginning to form in there eyes.
"I love you. You know that right? No one can make you laugh as hard and you do." Conney said not at all in a lesbain way. Just a matter a factly they were best friends.
"Yeah, yeah. Ily 2, girly!" Wynie actually said that letters. "Remeber....O-M-G, sounds like a plan to me?!" [A.N. Acutally me and my friend came up with that saying and we use it! lol]
"He.ll yes I remember! That's our motto!"
All the while they walked, ran, jogged the path.
Wynie abruptly stops. So then Conney rams right into her.
*Smash*
"What the he.ll, Wynie!"
"Look."
They just stood there dumb foundedly. Aww struck if you will.
"Um....I..you..it." Wynie struggled to get the words out.
She snapped out of it. "What the fck?! What is THIS doing here? How did it get here. Someone must have put it here, but who? Wynie just kept rambling.
Right in the front of her and Conney was this mural/fountain. It had to be at least the size of her 2 story house. Huge! While and grey marble etched into people. No! They weren't people...not even humans....they.....they were...vvvampires! She ran her had across the edge, just barely touching it. Her body went cold, like she had just jumped into near freezing water.
Why am I so cold?
"Wynie, maybe we should leave." Conney broke into her thoughts while nudging her to look.
"It's so beautiful."
"Yeah I know it's beautiful, but...Wyyynnniiiee we need to go."
Wynie finally looked up to see three approaching figures.
"Oh...." She finally understood the need for the urgency. "Well, you know what I have the right to be here as much as anyone does. If they don't like it too bad. Besides it public property anyway!" Wynie said just a bit too loud letting her "don't mess with me" attitude to show through.
"It's private, actually." A soft almost musical voice said with just the hint of burn at the end.
