DEATH AND ICE

m through. He joined the first hooded figure while grinning, his grin wide and flashing under the moon light, "You're late" The first cloaked figure, lazily shifted his gaze to his company. "...

hocked to see the creature was frozen, like crystalline frozen. it was baring it teeth at her, its head remain unfrozen. And for a minute Selena was stunned. As she looked into the snarling creature's eyes; a blinding flash and she found herself staring at her friend Avery, seemingly in the kitchen with her. She tried to move but felt rooted to the ground. Huh? She struggled to moved her immobile limbs. Suddenly, she saw a shadow-like figure looming behind Avery, exactly like the creature she just encountered . Her friend was walking and staring towards her direction , but not seeing her, and suddenly GASP! Blood trickled out from the side of Avery's mouth as a dark blade pierced through her. Selena looked on in horror as the monster retract its blade like arm and fixed everything to look like a suicide, including the suppose knife. Her body shook in disbelief helplessly staring at the scene unfolding before her eyes. What was this creature and how is it related to her friend?. Why did it kill her? Abruptly she was back to the present, as the scene dispersed before her.

'Will i get answers?' But the thought that prevailed was the fact that she would be safe with them. Those words called to her. So without hesitation she took his hand offered to her and soon the figures with Selena took of into the night. ••• She didn't know how much distanced they have covered. She was too busy trying not to throw up. After she accepted the stranger's hand, another one from behind came and pick her up. All she could remember was the jumping from one building to another. She thought she should look at the direction of where they were taking her, but she could barely keep herself from throwing up if she kept her eyes open. So she had to close it. Hopefully, she'll be alright. ............ Selena's mouth was left gaping open and her eyes wide. Now they have gotten to their destination. Selena just looked around with that same expression. The first stranger from before came up to her. "You don't need to be afraid, we are not gonna-" bu
