Chapter 2 - Strange People

The group was still whriling in as they stood face to face with what legends call a demon.

The flesh squirmed, as it shot out onto graces face and at that moment the group recollected themselves.

Reece tried to run through the front door, when Kolon who was a wriggling flesh blood at the point opened her gaping mouth filled with rings of teeth like a meat grinder, latched onto arm, brutally ripping it off.

At this point the group was panicking.

Zach was the farthest, he was confused, he was shocked, and most of all.

He was terrified.

His legs trembled as his calf's grew weak, is pupils shrunk and his eyes quivered.

'I have to do something.. I have to get out of here, if I don't....'

The realization washed over him like cold water.

"I-I will die.."

The terrified faces of his childhood friends reached his eyes.

Zach bolted, his blood boiled, his adrenaline took over, his brain abandoned all sense of reasoning as he charged straight at the only opening he knew off.

The window.

Currently they were situated at the fifth floor of a newly built lodge. But that didn't matter.

Zach felt his clothes and skin tear open, wood splinters and glass fragments hugged onto him like a long lost lover.

Gravity took over and Zach plummeted down at an incredulous speed.

Hitting his back on the cold gravel, Zach felt his spine shift, blood pooled on the on the road side, desolate of passerbys.

Zach, in a panic had jumped out of the window.

He mustered all his strength, pulling his body forward.

"I.. have too... Arrgh"

The pain stung like bots of electricity were running through him.

His vision turned red. One thing was apparent.

He was going to die if left like his.

He had crawled to the middle of the road leaving trail filled with organ bits and bone fragments behind.

_Thud_

Zach hair stood on end.

"D-did it jump down too"

Zach's eyes widened, but he couldn't look back.

He was losing, strength in his arms at this point, he was sure he had split his spine, that, was paralysis.

Zach laid down, his consciousness fading.

"I knew I smelled something similar"

'huh'

'Who's that'

Zach couldn't lift his head.

A red heel, and Zach could tell this was a woman's voice.

_Step_Step_Step_

Zach could make out sounds.

The monstros blob of flesh shrieked and writhed the ground trembled as a result.

Zach couldn't move, but he noticed a glass building across the street, he could make out what was going on behind him from the reflections.

The woman was dressed in a loosed a atlet gown, the skin on her are was pale, almost unnatural.

She wore a red veil so he couldn't make out her facial features, He could still notice her pale face and her lips which was bright red, almost like blood.

At this moment, blobs jumped out of the window one after the other, yher bodies overd with fleshy tentacles and serrated jaws.

'Oh no' Zach panicked. But there was nothing he could do he could only watch as the almagamation made ther way towards him.

At this moment several figures appeared before her and out stretched their hand.

Suddenly there hand glowed with a brilliant scarlet light and the blobs of flesh floated in the air.

Zach looked onward in horror as the blobs of flesh popped like a cherry spraying the entire area with a bloody mess, bits of flesh were everywhere.

Miss veil's assistant didn't have veil's on their heads so Zach could make out their appearance.

One was a female, with fair skin and soft delicate features, her eyes cold glanced over making Zach gulp.

The other was a man, Zach couldn't tell his age range but his build suggest he's well over 40. He wasn't sure.

(I'm calling the strange woman miss veil for story telling purposes)

Suddenly the blood of the monster floated into the air coaculated to a single point.

Zach noticed miss veils ple hand out stretched, and the blood coagulated into a single poin, it formed a pill the size of an infants thumb—grabbing the pill she gracefully brought it close to her lips.

"Wait am I seeing things... No.. did she?.."

Zach was in disbelief.

"Did she eat that stuff"

Zach laid down on the ground, when it suddenly struck him.

The commotion had cc aused quite a ruckus.

People were living nearly and would had heard his cries of pain when he fell off the top floor, but surprisingly no one bothered.

The space around him rippled as if unnatural.

"Mistress, I think we should leave", the lady spoke first.

The middle aged man looked over at Zach.

"What do we do with him..?" He asked.

__what do you do about me?... Wait!, what if she tries to eat me just like my friends__ Zach silently gulped.

"Just leave him, his predicament was brought upon him by his ignorance, he brought this upon himself.." he voice was cold.

Somehow, that didn't piss Zach off.

They were going to abandon him on the street and all he could do was trust fate.

The group walked away and the figure phased out of existence, at that moment the space surrounding the area seem to shatter like glass.

Zach laid there bleeding, his vision blurred despite that he clung onto life, hours seem to pass, as the morning approached.

_Honk Honk!_

Zach heard a car screeh to a halt ahead.

"What the!."

Zach heard a man's voice before he fully collapsed.

.....

Where am I?

What is this ... argh..

Pain surged through his senses he tried to clutch his head but was unable to his neck could not move.

"Zachariah!!!" A woman's teary sobs reached his ears he could recognize that voice it was non other than his mother.

A woman in her mid fifties brown hair and an undeniable attitude.

"What happened to you..?, I heard you were hit by a reckless driver." Her eyes welled up.

_Reckless driver..?_

Zach wasn't sure what she was talking about.
