Bloody Mary

"Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary..." 2 more times. What am I doing, I thought to myself. "Bloody Mary," I more... Do I have the option to back down? No, I thought, I couldn't. I'm not a wimp. "Bloody Mary." I waited, holding my breath. Nothing. nothing happened. "Guess nothing is gonna happen," I told myself. "Hey, Bonnie..." I heard my friend call out for me. "I don't feel good all of a sudden." I turn to exit the bathroom. Blowing out the candle, I opened the door, and then I heard her screaming in pain. The screams filled me with terror. I ran out and down the hall to the room. "Kira!!" My eyes started to water and fill with tears, I dropped to my knees and bawled out my eyes. Kira was... dead. I started to feel breathing on the back of my shoulders. Slowly turning around and standing up. I saw her. Bloody Mary was real. She was covered in Kira's blood. Kira was an amazing friend. We met when we were just 5 years old. It was a cold that day. On the first day of elementary school, I was sitting by myself in the classroom. She came to me asking if she could sit with me. Soon after, we became very good friends. Her parents died years later, and she started living with me and my mom. I was very caring towards her, knowing what she went through. Abusive dad, alcoholic mom, druggie sibling. Kira had a rough life before she moved in with me. I came back to the present after thinking about Kira’s past and how I promised to protect her. I was the only one who could, especially with my “power” My eyes widen with fear. I tried to scream, but no sound came out. I pushed her out of the way and ran outside. After running for a while, I noticed I was lost in the woods. Falling to the ground, I cried out, "What have I done?!" I blame myself for Kira dying. "it should've been me. I'm the one who summoned Mary. I'm the one who should be dead." Mary found me a few moments later. This time, I was ready to face her. I stood up and turned to Bloody Mary. Little did she know I had a twist of my own. I am part spirit with my own powers and curses. My power is to control blood. My own as well as any blood from wounds around. Any species or person. With that, it takes a lot of energy. I can feel energies from other beings and creatures. I can read their thoughts and vibes. "Bloody Mary," I started transforming into my true spirit form. I had dark skin, blood red eyes, and dark purple hair now, compared to the light skin hazel eyes and black hair i have in my human form. "You killed my best friend." I had stopped crying and was more angry than upset. I wanted to kill her, but sadly, she is already a spirit. If I had a spirit sword, I could hurt her. I don't have the power to create it, with blood. Raising my right arm, I take a dagger and poke my arm. Waiting for some blood to drip, I started thinking about a weapon I could create. A sword. Focusing on the sword forming from the blood dripping on my arm. The blood starts to rise and form into a sword. Taking hold of the handle, I swung the blood sword towards Bloody Mary. Stopping right before her neck, "Do you have anything to say.?" I asked. Bloody Mary just stood in silence. It was as if she wanted this. As if she wanted to be hurt. I started poking the tip of the sword into her neck. Blood dripping onto the sword. "Wait, it's actually piercing your skin?" I'm confused now. Did I create the spirit sword? Mary just stood there. I released the blood control. My blood dripping down my arm, I self healed. "What exactly do you want, Mary?" I could put a leash on her. then she'd be mine. Mine to control. Mine to use. No. I'm not that mean. "I..I need help." Mary was finally saying something. Help? What did that mean? "What do you mean by help?" I was a little interested. I was only 17, though. What could a 17 year old do? At that moment, she vanished into thin air. "Hello? Mary..." I called out. Mary was gone. I looked around for anything she could've left behind. Maybe a pendant. I didn't find anything, though. I realize some time later that I am still lost in the woods. I tried to find any footprints leading back the way I came. I then picked up an energy. It was Kira's. "Kira!?" I turned to where the energy was coming from and started running towards it. Soon after running, I was back home. I started looking for Kira's body. I looked where I remember her being last. But the body wasn't there. "Bonnie!!" Kira called out. I turned around to find her standing next to a tree. She was covered in blood and barely standing straight. "Are you okay!?" I walked towards her. "I... I can't believe you're alive." "What happened? I feel so numb in my legs." "Just come sit down, Kira." I walked closer and helped her inside to a chair. After a while, we went to bed. Hours later, I woke up to a bang. It was coming ro Kira’s room. I slowly got up and walked down the hall to her room, and I listened carefully and quietly. Opening the door, I saw Kira sitting up and facing the window. “Bloody Mary, let me go!” She started bawling as she turned to me. “She won’t let me go.” I realize what happened. Bloody Mary had possessed her.
