Emma was roaming the now silent street, it was twelve at midnight, the team had parted and they promised to meet at the place they had parted the following day and by then they would have had a shelter and a means to live in the city or not...
Emma roamed around in the darkness, looking for a place to rest for the night, when she group of young boys smoking and playing cards, don't they have parents? Was the question that came to her mind. Emma, oblivious to how dangerous people like this are just casually passed them.
She felt very uncomfortable because they all
fixed their eyes on her, was it because of her ragged clothes? she thought and all of a sudden she felt a sharp pain on her buttocks, one of the guys had smacked her
"She's one of the confident ones, just walking by casually in the middle of the night," one of them said as he pulled her by her hair and they all laughed.
"Let go of me!" Emma shouted but it only warranted a slap on her face, he pressed her on the wall and now all the guys had come closer. Emma was silent since she received the slap on her face and just when he was about to fear her clothes, she took him off the floor and threw him onto the wall. He slid down slowly, blood gushing out of the back of his head.
They looked at him in fear and just to look back at Emma whose eyes were already as red as blood, she took one of the guys and sunk her teeth into his neck as fought for his life, the others screamed and ran but they weren't able to get anywhere before she caught them and they all faced death. She threw the last victim on the floor, satisfied, it's been long she tasted human blood but now she regretted she didn't do it calmly because. Their clothes were filled with blood and there was no way she could change into them. She took off the last victim's Jacket
"I didn't want to kill anyone, ya'll caused it," she said as if they were alive to hear her
She robbed the jacket on the victim's body to clean the blood stain on it. She searched the pockets, took his wallet brought out the things inside, she threw away the ID card, passport and the picture of a young lady, she looked at the rough dollar bill, it was definitely money, she took it and did the same search to the other victims. Now she had enough to buy her food the following day and a chocolate bar for the night. She wore the jacket and walked away.
Emma sat up from her lying position
she didn't close her eyes throughout the night, she stood up and started her journey again, praying to secure shelter by the end of the day, she walked slowly as she ate her remaining chocolate bar
"she looks so dirty," a girl said
to her friend as they passed by they both laughed softly
They must have said it quietly for an ordinary ear to hear but they didn't know she was no ordinary person
"Hey," Emma said and they both looked at her with disgust written all over their
face
Emma smiled and walked closer to them
"What?" The blonde haired girl asked annoying
"Your dresses are nice, I bet it would look
really nice on me" Emma said as she stared
stared at them
"I bet it would, " they both said in unison and with that, they both followed Emma to the Corner of a wall where passers-by won't see them and on coming out, Emma was in the blonde haired girl black dress and her brunette friend's gold sandals, the blonde-haired girl was in Emma's ragged clothes and her victim's jacket while the brunette friend was in Emma's old brown boots.
"This never happened and you never saw me today" Emma said to the two girls with a smile and they parted ways.
Emma was enjoying the vanilla scent of
her new dress and she walked to wherever
her legs took her
"I Pity these couple, I heard they have no children," a woman said to her friend as they walked and they both looked at the black couple watering their flower
"They receive no visitors, nobody knows if they have children or not, they moved here with no children and they Isolate themselves from others some people say the wife is crazy and she sometimes says she has a daughter but she has no idea where she went" the other woman replied her friend
Emma paused and looked at the couple, she smiled, "This is perfect!", she said to herself, she waited a little bit for the women to walk further as she played with her hair. Then she walked slowly towards the couple, they both looked at her, confused and stopped what they were doing
"what do you want?" was the question the husband asked Emma moved closer to them
"I am your long lost daughter, Emma, and you love me very much, now I'm back, you're going to take care of me and give me whatever I ask for " she said to them, and with that, they hugged her tightly and they all went inside the house.
Austin's best friend was having a party and he had persuaded Austin to come since Austin had promised to make it up to him, Austin didn't want to go but since he didn't want to be at home either, he went to the party.
He stood in front of the entrance for some seconds as if rethinking his decision to go in, he could hear the loud music and his head was already hurting. He finally opened the door, the multicolored light in the house made his eyes hurt a little, he tried to make his way upstairs unnoticed but it didn't work
"Hey, Austin is here" Tyler, Austin's best friend said and the others looked over at Austin
"What's up dude" one of the guys said and they all exchanged handshake
"I hardly see you at school, you don't even come for basketball practice anymore," Junior said
"I am going through some personal stuff
but I'll be back soon" he said as he turned to go
"Where are you going? Come and have a drink" Tyler said
"I'll be right back," he said as he turned his back to leave
"He's probably going to look for Alison," one of the guys said jokingly and the rest laughed
Austin made his way upstairs, covering his head with his hoodie cap but somehow someone still managed to see him
"Austin, Austin" he looked back to see who it was and it turned out to be Cynthia, his neighbor's daughter
"Cynthia," he said plainly
"I hope you're okay, I heard you scream," she said with concern written all over her face
"Me? No, it was probably the movie I was watching" he said convincingly
"Oh, and I wanted to talk to you," Cynthia said as she brushed her silk hair backward with her hand
"Umm, I want to get something, I'll be right
e back" he said and with that, he walked
as fast as he could into Tyler's room and sat on the bed, relieved he was now alone.
He sat there, lying on his hands, on the bed, and holding his head. It was hurting, and by this time, he wished he had just stayed at home. Soon, he heard someone opening the door, and that was when he remembered that he hadn't locked the door behind him.
He looked up slowly only to see that it was Alison, his heart skipped a beat. An effect only caused by the sight of Alison. She wore a short denim gown and her hair was tied up in a ponytail
"I asked Tyler where you were and he said
said you headed upstairs so I thought you might be here" Alison said as she sat beside him
"Oh, how are you doing?" he asked as they
Stared at each other
"You've been avoiding me," she said softly
"It's not like that, I've just been going through some personal shit and I'm not just good for
you or anyone right now"
"You have to be good for me," she said as she held his hand. Alison is the only person Austin finds comfort in, well Austing too but they are now slowly growing apart. Wasn't Austin growing apart with everyone?
He has been staying away from her because he is afraid of what he could do to her, especially now that he found out the monster he is
"I can't, I don't know how to," he said with a hint of sadness in his voice. Alison Kissed him unexpectedly slowly but passionately, like she had been waiting all her life for that moment, but hadn't she been waiting? Waiting every day, thinking about him, Longing for him, wishing she was his, blaming herself every time he avoided her as if she was the cause. Their parents had said they were meant for each other and she knew it was true
Austin pulled away, for a moment he thought of leaving the room but he couldn't, he needed this, he needed her. He kissed Alison who was already looking confused, this time more passionate, his tongue exploring her mouth. He stood and knelt on the bed before her, her legs in the middle of his, he continued kissing her again, softly, as Alison began to take off his hoodie
"Are you sure you want this?" He asked and Alison nodded her head as a sign of approval, she now struggled to breathe, they both stared into each other's eyes and they continued kissing, Alison's hands exploring his hard chest as he kissed her neck
She closed her eyes, moaning softly, wanting more of his touch, savoring the moment, she felt electricity run through her body as his hands moved within her thighs, she moaned softly as she adjusted her body and slightly opened her thighs, by this time he had stopped what he was doing, Alison stayed still a moment, her eyes still closed as she bites her lips, why had he stopped? she asked herself, had she has been moaning too loud? She opened her eyes abruptly only to see the monster in front of her and just when she was about to scream, she was gone, half her head had been eaten by this monster and she just lay there, on the bed, in a blood pool.
