Emilie's Friends - Ashley Battybrat (ebook smartphone .TXT) 📗

Emilie was a strange little girl, she could do something others couldnt - she could speak to the dead.As she grew older, her family began to worry about her - they wondered why she never made any friends, why she was always playing alone. They wondered why she appeared to be talking to herself so often - but she wasnt. She had friends, but nobody other than her could see them - she never talked to herself - she talked to them.                Her friends told her not to tell anybody that she could see them, because they would be mean to her - they would judge her. But one day that's exactly what she decided to do.

She decided to tell her mother, if anyone would understand it would be her. She walked into her mother's room,and told her mother everything about her gift and her friends. Well, her mother didnt understand as Emilie thought she would - instead the exact opposite happened. She screamed and screamed at Emilie, she hit her, and she forced her to go see a psychiatrist who put her on drugs that kept her mind from functioning properly. But clever little Emilie simply spit the pills out every time her mother shoved them into her mouth. That worked for a while, until her mother noticed that she still displayed the same behaviors. At first, her mother thought that the medication just wasnt strong enough, so she told the psychiatrist toraise the dosage. When that still didnt work, she decided to investigate. She looked all around Emilie's room, and found just what she was looking for - in one of the waste baskets was a tiny pile of pills.

The mother was furious. She stormed into the living room and grabbed Emilie by the hair. She dragged Emilie to the car and told her that she was taking her to the place crazy people like her belonged, and that she was going to leave her there forever. Emilie screamed and fought, but her mother was already on top of her. Still, she struggled. Her mother put her hands around Emilie's throat, trying to subdue her. Still Emilie screamed and kicked. Her friends tried to help, but were useless. all they could do was watch and scream with her. Her mother smashed Emilies head into the sidewalk, Emilie heard a crack, and then her vision blacked out. She stopped breathing. Her mother called for an ambulance, but it was too late.                                                          Emilie gasped and sat up. She looked over and screamed. "What happened?!" she cried, staring at the bloody scene on the pavement. "You know what happened, your mother killed you."  her friends whispered sadly. "No it can't be!" Emilie screamed. "It's true." her friends whispered. "Just please take me away from this." Emilie whimpered. So they did. Emilie and her friends crossed over to the next world to spend eternity together.
