I've been wanting to do this for a while, but i've not had chance to get round to it. Nor have I looked, so there may already be a few of these already...
------
My name is Ruby. I'm 20 years old, and this is my Sibling (******). S/he's a few months older than me, and has always looked out for me. On our 2nd birthday, our mother died. Rather, she was murdered. I can't really remember what happened, but from years of asking my father, I managed to work out that he came into our room and found her on fire. Like that wasn't bad enough, she was on the ceiling. Just... on the ceiling, burning. That took a huge toll on him, and we moved around a lot, the three of us. We jumped from town to town, state to state, staying in shoddy motels and joining new schools halfway through the academic years. In our evenings, when Dad was around (he was often away on "business"), we were taught to fight, taught about demons, ghosts, spirits and the like. I've always been a skeptic, but (******) swears blind that they're real, and asks for only my trust on the matter.
Anyway, we came to this tiny little town a few weeks ago, and since it's spring break, it doesn't matter that there isn't a school here. I got talking to one of the girls who worked at the local burger bar (!!!!!!!), and we got quite close. The four of us (Me, *****, !!!!!!!, and her brother %%%%%%) were at her moms house late one evening, just watching movies and having a laugh. There was a loud screech, and we all shot out of our seats and up the stairs, me and (*****) naturally taking the lead after years of training. What we saw next wrought chaos in our brains. Their mom was on the ceiling, burning, just like ours was. There was nothing we could do to get near her and the spreading pillar of flames. We just had to get out of the house before it burned to the ground. We quickly packed them a bag and brought them to our motel, where our father was waiting for us.
We explained what had happened, and consoled our friends, who were in hysterics, then went into the kitchen with dad. After an hour or two of quietly talking, he told us that the thing that killed our mom, was the same thing in the house that night. He told us that he had to leave quickly so chase after it whilst the trail was still fresh, told us to keep an eye on the two, to stay out of trouble, and to look after his car, he was meeting a friend for the hunt. Then he was gone.
Weeks went by, and we had no word from him, he didn't answer his phone, no one had heard, we just know that he was headed for his friend Jacksons house, so we decided it was time to find him.
Me and my sibling and our two distressed friends mooching behind us, often saying "You're insane. You want to chase that thing? It could do the same to us!" or "You guys are nuts" all climbed into dads old '67 Chevvy Impala, and we hit the road, leaving a trail of dust and an empty motel room behind us...

I intend to bring other characters into it along the way, just not all at the start (I dont want several story lines at once).
Looking for
Ruby - Taken
(*****) Brother/sister -
(!!!!!!) Female friend-
(%%%%%) Male friend, Brother of (!!!!!) -
Please pm me any suggestions if you have any!
Hoping to get this started within the next day or two.
