New Rockville Chapter: 1
Clearance :It was a cold winter day in 2006, when I was sitting in the dining room with my older brothers. We were surrounding a small heater and we were also listening to the radio. A journalist was talking about a tragic story that happened in Rockville park: A place around where we lived. 'A body of a young woman was found on the lake, sources say that she was attacked by an unknown suspect at 12:00am... Cops were called, but the suspect vanished on thin air. When the cops arrived and flooded the scene he was no were to be found and no witness saw what he looked like...' The reporter said. "I heard these news, everyone in school was talking about it." Samson said. "Everyone says it was a ritual." He finished. He was the guy who always knew stories of Rockville. (Samson was the second born in our family and he was 16. Scorpio born on the 17th of November.) "You always have these theories, does your lies ever end?" Abraham scolded. (Abraham was the oldest amongst all my brothers.
New Rockville Chapter: 2
Clearance:Ever since I experienced that birthday surprise from father, things had changed. My brothers were giving me these weird looks all the time. Maybe it was jealousy or something else... The ghost of my true identity was still haunting me. I didn't know what make of it, maybe there was something I was missing? I knew that from the time I was a kid life was different for me. I felt so much void and not enough support. Growing up in house that had boys, only, it was weird. I didn't know my mother. I saw my neighbors having female figures, but mine was missing and no one even dared to explain to me why? Well...except for Simon, who kinder spilled that I was a bastard. I didn't understand why or how? But I was determined to figure it out, one way or another. Even if I was, why didn't I know anything about her? No one gave me a direct meaning of what it all meant, even our father did not speak the words that I could understand. I wanted to ask but my relationship with our father
New Rockville Chapter: 3
Clearance:It was the following morning and we were walking on the on dirty gravel road, after crossing the big Koma street. It was the biggest street we had ever crossed. At least Abraham was responsible enough to make sure that we all crossed it to safety. We were wearing caps, sandals, shorts and short sleeved t-shirts. Abraham had bought it for us. He was that kind of brother. It was weird, because he wasn't even working. I didn't know how he made money. As we were walking through the Elcha road that separated Elcha stadium from the big Rockville houses, I was haunted by the previous day's events. I was following behind my big brothers, but Simon was walking beside me. He looked weird as he stared at me, ever so often. He wasn't saying anything, but I felt like more horse shit was brewing in that evil mind of his. He had a way of surprising me with so much of it, although it was all unpleasant. Samson was narrating stories about the conspiracy theories of Rockville. "You guys
New Rockville Chapter: 4
Clearance:When Abraham came out of father's room with whip marking, I instantly new that our father was a dangerous person. He had no remorse for foolishness, but I mostly felt sorry for Abraham he didn't deserve that whooping. I wanted to understand though why he'd lie for Simon? I didn't ask him though because I was so afraid that he wasn't gonna look at me the same anymore. He wasn't gonna protect me like he always did. Abraham was the only person I could rely on to make everything better. He was considerate, kind and empathetic. He had no animosity against me, like my other brothers. Him picking me up to protect me from that mermaid when it tried to attack us, proved to me that he actually did care about me. Maybe that was just part of who he was, he was always protective over us and he would take the beating to protect anyone, even a Simon for that matter. "This is your fault, if you didn't become so persistent in ruining our lives, non of this would have happened." Simon whis
New Rockville Chapter: 5
"You want me to take you through my memory lane of my turmoil?" Ganuku asked.I nodded my head. I still couldn't believe I was seeing a ghost with my naked eyes. It was dark, but I couldn't bring myself to speak. I was still in shock because he was a ghost to me. He held my head and I found myself drifting off to a deep slumber. I thought that I was dying. Nothing like that had ever happened to me before. I had never slept instantly, in any situation. It was kinder weird that he was able to have such control over me. It's like he had supernatural powers. "I will take you to an event, where I was still alive, before you were conceived to this world. An even that transformed my life forever." He said and I was transported to a place when he looked younger that this time, he was probably 6 years old; Simon was still a baby on his mother's arms; Samson and Abraham looked 12 and nine; and the twins were around 4 or 5 years old. It looked strange traveling through time to witness this eve

"Wake up!" A voice said. I kept quiet. I was avoiding it on purpose and I did not even know who it was. I thought that it was Ganuku, since he gave me that conjuring visit. He probably wanted to show me more of his previous life experiences. What I had witnessed was bad enough for me. I didn't want to see anyone get tortured like that and my soul got yanked from that scene I didn't know what was happening. I felt myself being lifted up, my eye lids were still heavy and tired from all the astral projection and traveling through time. I couldn't wait to tell them how sick they were, but my spirit felt so heavy. I thought that maybe I should start by telling dad first, about what I saw. What their mother did to the poor Ganuku was appalling. They had to pay, even for making me sleep on the kitchen floor, I had to make them pay. I was alsa against Abraham's passive reaction. He was brave enough to take a beating for his juvenile brother, Simon, but he wasn't brave enough enough to pro
New Rockville Chapter: 7
When dawn came, I woke up and I headed outside. It was so hard witnessing what I saw, on the previous night. Everything was playing back to me in a blur, like I had been in a horrendous dream and non of things I saw had happened. But they did and I also knew that they did. I went outside to watched the sun rise.I did not know what to do? My heart still ached from hearing my own brothers conspiring to hurt me."You woke up early this morning. Did you get a good sleep?" Father asked. "Yea- I mean, uhm yes father!" I said, my throat was a bit croaked from my deep slumber, "Can I go with you to work today?" I asked. He looked at me, but he seemed a bit hesitant to answer. "Clearance, kids are not allowed to go to work, but do not worry, today is my day off. So we can go to the town instead, you will help me pick some groceries. What do you say?" He asked and I nodded my head feeling a little bit of relief. I was going to be away from the juvenile siblings of mine. I didn't want to spe
New Rockville Chapter: 8
"Nazim needs a baby's hand." A lady was saying to the man she was sitting with, in the bus. For me, what she was saying was not the strangest thing at all, but it was the fact that I could hear her. We were sitting inside the bus that was going to town with my father. As I was sitting there, I felt my soul shift from the real world to the spirit world. I had never experienced anything like that. It felt like how I felt, when my I felt myself traveling through space in time, to witness a situation that had happened years ago. The only difference was that Ganuku was not there to guide or to assist me.I was also sitting inside the bus traveling to town and I was sitting besides father. We were sitting 10 rows away from the couple that was conspiring to make an abduction. From where I was sitting, I already knew that Nazim was not a human being, but instead it was a god of darkness, those people just gave him a human name just so they throw anyone who was choosing to eaves drop off thei
