Lisa

I knew long ago that the chances I took was going to haunt me. I was 24 when i gave birth to my Lisa. She was beatiful however the year was four thousand and I knew the storys. I knew that death needed someone to take his place and I knew what I was risking, but why would it be my Lisa? Out of all the kids she was probley the shyest and most likly to you know, not kill. My mother told me that the chances where higher cause someone in my family had been picked before and that I should have given her up, but I didnt. After the birth she was nrmal. She sleept most of the day and was up most of the night and she didnt like shots, she was a normal kid. Then right around a year is when she started to change. A little bit a first but it was still there. she was talking alot more then her peers and she wasnt afride of anything, in fact the mer thought of spiders was fasancating to her. She didnt care about geeting hit by a car or stolen by a stranger. She would simple shrug it off and say that she didt need to worry about it. Then at about a year and four mounths we bought her this flower plant at the store. It was in perfect condtion and it was beatiful. Later that day when i wakled into the room to see if she made her bed it was dead. The leaves floated down to the ground and steam was brown and weak. I wsa concered not gonna lie but either way she was still my baby and not a future death. Later that smae year we got her a fish and when it died that same day we got her a hamster. About a mounth later I walked in to see her stepping on his head. I heard the desprit squeaks as she went down with more force. By the imeI got there it was dead and she wsa smiling." Mommy did you see, its dead, I did my job" I flipped and yelled, she got upset. I didnt want this, this girl was crazy but I loved her and I went outside to bury the hamster. that night she wouldnt go to sleep, she said she had work and daddy was gonna pick her up. Well not her birth day i can tell you for sure, in fact I have no idea where she even learend about fathers. Either way I said she needed to sleep and she didnt take very lightly to that. Just as I was about to pick her up a large black cloud came in thourgh the window and my baby was gone. i woke in my bed and ran to her room and she was sleeping soundly. I must have dremt it. The rest of her year went by slowly then on her second borthday I was bring her to bed and wehen i went inside her room I saw most of her things packed in a suit case. I asked her what she was doing and she said she was leaving tonight to live with her dad. I asked her what his name was but she didnt answer, she didnt know. She told methough of this figure that was black and cold but the coldness was comforting to ehr. She said he took her a few times to help him and she like his job, and now it wsa gonna be hers. She liked touching a person and being inviasble, she enjoyed seeing the bright light of the world beyond hers and the gates fo either heaven or of hell, Hell had scared her though but Her dad had protected her. He also said that she was never to go inside the gates cause they wouldnt open again. I starte to cry, my mother was right, she was the new death and in a few years she was gonna take over. she would be the one who took me to my slumber. A dark cloudcame in though the window again like it had last year and before Lisa stepped out she kissed my hand and said " Dont worry Mommy I will see you again soon" and with that she was gone.
