A Walk In The Darkest Part Of The Woods

A Story by Lacy Dawn

Bill can't take it anymore. But he dosen't want his kids or wife to be sad. He wants to die. But he knows its not the right thing. But can he take it.

"JOSH YOU CANT CONTROL MY LIFE ANYMORE!" Bill yelled at his brother in pain.

Josh punched Bill in the stomach again. Yelling curses at him. Kicking him in the leg. Even slapping his chest hard. Bill screamed in pain while Josh kicked him in the leg. Bill had the knife in his hand. He was clutching in it. He was trying not to pull it out and murder his brother. His brother was drunk. He couldn't do drugs or drink. He had a sickness that would come over him if he did. Josh slapped Bill in the face and laughed. He stomped on the ground. " I love this, and I loved that beer!" Josh laughed loudly.

Bill was using the knife to cut the rope. He felt like he was going to attack his brother. He kept trying to tell himself not to even think about it. Josh punched Bill's arms. Then he stepped on his foot hard. Finally Bill cut the rope. He stood up. Josh screamed scared. Bill was so mad. He lifted his knife up to his throat. "Stop, or your gonna die!" Bill stated.

Josh stood still. He was so scared. Bill backed away. He put the knife down. Josh fainted. Bill knew he was okay so he just left. He ran down to the woods at the end of Josh street. He sat down next to a burnt tree. His head felt like people were inside. Those people were screaming all at the same time. He grabbed his head. He knew he was in the deepest part of the woods. He was thinking it would clear his head. But it just made it worse. He stood up and saw Josh standing next to him. But he didn't look like Josh. " Do what you were going to do to Josh! " The clone Josh taunted.

So Bill obeyed. He stabbed the clone in the chest. It did nothing. He was a clone so it wouldn't do much. Bill still felt mad. He did it over and over again. Finally the clone vanished. Then he heard a voice in his head saying, " Go do it to Josh."

Bill started walking to Josh's house. He walked faster and faster. He got madder and madder. He got closer and closer. Then he was at the porch of Josh's home. He busted through the door. He saw Josh on the couch watching tv . He had awoke from his faint. " Oh Josh " Bill shrieked.

Josh turned around and saw Bill. Mark screamed when he saw Bill with the knife in his hand. Then bill walked toward him. Josh couldn't move. He was frozen with fright. Bill put the knife up to his neck. Then Bill dropped the knife on the ground. Then he hugged Josh. His eyes were filling up with tears. " I'm sorry Josh, I don't know whats happening!" Bill exclaimed weeping.

Bill fell on the couch. He grabbed the knife from the ground. He got it closer and closer to his neck. The Josh grabbed it and threw it across the room. He lifted him up. "Bill you cant kill yourself, don't let it get the best of you!" Josh yelled in a kind voice.

Bill nodded. They hugged and Bill told Josh about how everything is going wrong. Bills are high. He didn't want to make his family sad. Josh and Bill hugged again and Bill went home happy. He didn't let it come over him.

Moral: Don't let anything come over you that makes you want to kill someone or yourself. Things will always get better!
