Immediately he got to Mrs Flor, his trousers disappeared and she cut his dîçk off with the blade.
His dîçk fell to the ground and She picked it.
She smiled and place it in her mouth before eating it like a lion craving for meat.
After taking a bite, she shove her dagger in his neck continuously. She took her hands to his neck, pulling out his lungs.
” Henry noo!” Nadine screamed while some pass out just by the view.
Three… Two..
“MARRIED COUPLES” Tania said loudly, shaking on her spot. She couldn’t tell if she was right or wrong but she needed to say something.
Mitchell had same thing in mind but fear wouldn’t let her speak
” Chloe..” She cried and the door suddenly opened and few students fell outside. Mrs Flor disappeared afterwards and the students took to their heels.
★★★
Chloe disengaged from the hug and wiped her face.
” Since we don’t know what’s gonna happen next, since they’re possessed beings, it means we’ll always see them but how do we get rid of them?” Chloe asked and the students kept mute.
” I think a shaman, priest or wh@tëver can do this” Havana said quickly but Chloe who’s an Atheist, kept mute, trying to think of a better option.
” I saw it in that book right??” Chloe muttered, trying to figure out how to end the riddles cos she was sure she saw how to do it.
” How do I get to Mitchell” She sighed sadly.
” Will she still be in class? What if I don’t see her there? Gosh I’m confused right now” She thought but Havana words brought her outta her thoughts.
” Why don’t we call the the cops?” She asked, bringing out her phone. She dialed 911 and it was answered at first ring .
? Hello here’s the police station, how can…
? We’re stuck in school and can’t leave.. we need help.. I think the students are possess and they keep killing each other.. please bring a father, a priest or a shaman.. I’m sure they’re gonna be of help.. Havana rushed her words .
? I don’t understand.
? What the Füçk don’t you understand.. She shouted but the call got disconnected.
? Hello? Hello? Hello? God-damned it” She said, throwing the phone away.
” F*ck them!!” Havana cursed and started crying as she hugged Kurr.
Chloe decided to go through the gate to see if it will lead her out of the school but was surprised to see herself back in school.
“There’s no escape road..” She bit on her lips before looking at her friends.
” Let’s find a safe zone.. a place you think this things won’t notice” She said, and the students nodded.
They started going back into the school, looking around to be sure no possess students was after them, walking like thieves, slowly and carefully. They ran when they had too, hide when necessary untill they got into an empty office which has been abandoned for years.
The switch on the light and breath out in relief. They were just 11 in number so they sat next to each other.
Some were crying slowly.
The atmosphere was quiet, everyone looking around in fright until Alex spoke up.
” If we work together, I’m sure we’re all gonna be save so please, don’t blame Chloe for what’s happening. She’s doing her best” He added and Chloe stood up.
She only took two steps when Alex held her back and she looked at him.
” Are you leaving us?” Franca asked while Chloe ruffled her hair. She was just going to excuse herself so as to clear her banging head.
” Am I not permitted to look around anymore?” She asked back and Elodie had to intervene cos she noticed Chloe was mad already.
” Don’t get it wrong Chloe.. I think she’s scared that’s why. You know I suck in riddles right? You and Alex has always been the best among us followed by Kurr”
” I’m also scared Elodie.. but she… ” Chloe pointed at Franca..
” She doesn’t know and doesn’t want to know if I’m scared. I’m human too, my brain also gets tired. If she thinks it’s easy to rack my head for such a short period of time, then why don’t she do it? Seriously it’s getting on my nerves and I’m trying so hard not to get angry but she can’t just shut the Füçk up which is so annoying” Chloe replied and walked out on them angrily.
Alex sighed
” I’ll be back..” He said and followed .
Thierry sighed too.
They’ve always known Chloe to be short tempered. For the fact she hasn’t said hurtful words means she didn’t like the mess they were in either.
” Franca.. you know I h@të school right? But my old man insisted I come. can you please just shut the Füçk up if you know nothing about riddles? It’s annoying”
” You should be happy you aren’t dead yet.. just chew and swallow the h@të you have towards her because of Alex” Thierry said.
” Can you all stop it?” Nike shouted. ” Rather than saying irrelevant things, why don’t you just browse out some riddles. Let’s not waste our time on things that can’t even save us huh?”
” I didn’t think of that” Havana exclaimed and immediately took her phone but a loud cry left her mouth and everyone turned to her.
” Is something wrong?” Pinky asked.
” No network connection, none at all!! ” she started to cry loudly while the rest checked it out for themselves.
Their mouth dropped opened and their eyes widened.
” This witches and wizards are bent on killing us” Elodie started crying too.
“Where’s Alex and Chloe?” Pinky suddenly asked.
” They’re probably in the next room, Alex went to stay with Chloe” Nike replied and Pinky nodded before sitting down.
★
Mitchell was alone in a class since she parted ways with her team while running for their lives.. she’s been crying out her eyes as she thought of Chloe.
“Will I be safe? How’s Chloe doing? Gosh, where the hell is all this coming from?” She cried again, standing on her feet.
She looked out of the window and held her mouth tightly as she watched some students getting slaughtered like chicken in the hallway. Fear gripped her the more as her free hand tightened on her backpack.
“I must find Chloe..” She muttered as she tiptoed quietly out of class but she bumped into someone.
She looked up and realized it was one of the possessed students and her heart sank.
She fell to the ground on her bum.
” This isn’t good” She muttered as the disgusting looking girl stared at her with her dark eyes.
” WHERE’S THE ONLY PLACE WHERE TODAY COMES BEFORE YESTERDAY? The girl asked and Mitchell grip tightened on her backpack the more as she swallowed the lumps in her throat.
” Oh Jesus, please save me” She prayed inwardly after thinking of an answer.
The clock was already ticking.
Three… two…
” The Dictionary..” She said and closed her eyes, waiting for the worst but nothing happened.. she only heard the annoying laugh of the witch which stopped after few seconds.
She opened her eyes gently and discovered the strange girl wasn’t there anymore.. so she took to her heels running so fast in the hallway when she bump into someone again.
“Ahhh..” They both screamed loudly and they immediately looked up.
” Claudine!”
” Mitchell!”
They both cried and hugged each other.
“Where are the others? Michelle asked.
” I don’t know.. we parted ways” Claudine cried, still in the hug.
★★★
” Are you okay?” Alex asked when Chloe finally cleaned her tears.
” Thanks” She smiled slightly and Alex hugged her again.
” Let’s get along after all this is settled okay?” He patted her back and she disengaged from the hug to stare at him.
” Why? I thought you h@të me for being the best” She said but he only smiled. Chloe didn’t say anything as she stood up.
“Let’s meet the rest.. they must’ve been worried. It’s been 10minutes already” She said and Alex nodded, standing up too.
Chloe led the way and was about opening the door when Alex held her hand and made her face him.
Their closeness only made her heart flutter and she gulped.
” What?”She asked, staring at his face but her eyes suddenly went on his lips.
Has his lips always been so attractive? She wondered.
She’s actually noticing it for the first time after years.
” I might be the one dying next so I don’t wanna have any regrets” He sighed.
” I wanted to do this earlier at the Library” He said and before she could read meaning into his words, his lips were already dancing on hers.
The softness and how perfectly his lips felt on hers, took away her reasoning completely.
She started kissing him back slowly and him, in turn, deepened the kiss. She kissed him possessively like she’s been waiting for him to do that for a long time now, forgetting the fact that he’s still the same guy she claims she h@tëd.
“Lex” She Mõ@ned his name as they kissed passionately.
They kept going for minutes, each of them not ready to break it. She was almost half naked already cos her shirt was off and she was left only with her transparent singlet.
She suddenly broke the kiss and bite on her lips.
“Let’s date if we manage to survive” Alex said.
” Why?” She asked and silence followed.
” Because I like you ” He replied after a while.
” I was carried away for a moment.. but I’m not sorry about the kiss” He said when she wouldn’t say anything.
” It’s fine, Let’s go meet the others” She said but they both stopped walking when they felt goosebumps on their body. The cold invisible force kept going into their body and their eyes suddenly changed colours and like that, they left the room to meet their friends.
” Finally, you guys are back” Kurr said but a frown appeared on his forehead when he saw their eyes and the knife with them.
He took few steps backwards.
” IT CAN’T BE SEEN, CAN’T BE FELT, CAN’T BE HEARD AND CAN’T BE SMELT . IT LIES BEHIND STARS AND UNDER HILLS , AND EMPTY HOLES IT’S FILLS, IT COMES FIRST AND FOLLOWS AFTER, ENDS LIFE, AND KILLS LAUGHER… What am I?” They both asked at once.
“Chloe, Alex.. what happened to you both?” Thierry asked and Nike’s eyes widened.
” Are they….possessed?” He asked aloud.
” No this can’t be.. how do we survive when they’re both possessed?” Havana cried.
” Chloe, Alex, please come back to your senses” Elodie cried, going on her knees but then, the clock on them started ticking.
” No, this is not happening” Nike panicked, almost in tears.
Nine… eight.. seven…six.. five…….
” Kurr, say something..”Nike whisper- yelled fearfully as the count down got to two.
Chloe and Alex held their knives firmly.
