‘What the hell is going on here?’, Emilia demanded. A family, consisting out of a father, a mother and two children. However, they were everything but alone. Before them stood a white ghoul and a black-haired man, his skin white and his eyes black as the night itself. Moreover, he was grinning. But why? The family had turned pale through fear. The ground underneath was drenched in their sweat. And yet, the human was smiling. As bright as his smile had appeared the eyes of that man radiated darkness and evil. Although, he had put on a grin, his face itself displayed no emotion. 29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtht592Yp1g
And yet came the most disgusted thing. When Emilia entered the room completely the man turned his head, though, his body kept facing the family. Meaning his head had almost twisted completely so that it stood straight to Emilia.
‘Oh, wo got new people!’, he uttered. And lastly everything beneath his head also turned to the group. Shaking he head, Emilia pointed the gun at the man, demanding:
‘What are you? Ned, what is he? Demon? Angel?’
‘No!’, Ned replied advancing for the eyes of the man were normal. Yes they might have appeared kind of cringe but there was no black-violet or black-gold. ‘He’s neither of them. I can feel something like a ghoul, but also a human!’
‘Interesting!’, the man said, advancing himself. Emilia retreated towards Sarah. ‘Yes, you could call us a hybrid. And I am sure you wonder why’ – Rick shot the man in the head and he dropped to the ground, his body twitching some seconds before coming to a stop. And when everyone stared to Rick he had no choice but to defend himself: ‘He was speaking too much. And damn he’s creepy, really creep’ –
‘You’re hurting my feelings!’, the man groaned as he rose up in the most inhuman and a creepy way, his body arched while his chest showed up. ‘Hahahahahah!’ He stood straight again. ‘Our King will be pleased to see newcomers and even more after we lost some’ his head and only his head spined around to face the family, ‘family members!’ His mouth opened wide and he let out a cry that shook the building itself. For a moment it turned absolute silent. Then the building once again trembled and the group heard steps, steps approaching from below. Something, an army one could say, was heading their way, fast!
‘Grab the family!’, Sarah ordered and Emilia once again entered the room, her gun pointing at the man and not the white. The ghoul itself had stayed still the whole time. Emilia circled around the enemy who made no move and lastly stopped at the family. She beckoned them over with one hand. They hesitated but when the father rose to his legs his family followed. As Emilia circled back the family stayed close behind her. Once again, the enemy showed no movements. Maybe it was not even need because the herd was closing in. Just when she was about to reach the door, the man spoke as he locked his eyes on Sarah:
‘The President herself! Interesting! I can feel it, the King would be delighted to see you. At a second thought, you may be his’ – Ned placed himself before Sarah and shot an ice lance at the man. He however, caught it with his mouth and shattered it between his fangs. Right away he ordered:
‘Get them!’ And the ghoul lastly moved, swift and fast. He was not like the other ghouls, by far not. And in the next moment it had reached Sarah, caught by surprise. However, for that there was the. Father. He launched himself at the ghoul and grabbed it by the neck. Then slammed it to the ground. Cracks spread in the ground and the father lifted up the ghoul and hauled him at the man, bellowing to his family:
‘Get out! Before I lose control!’ And just when he faced Sarah and the others they could see it – he was holding back something, maybe a beast, no one knew but it had to be serous for the father yelled again: ‘Get out!’ Behind him the man had caught the ghoul effortlessly and put it to the ground. His face had turned red due to his rage overboiling in him.
‘A failed experiment dare defy me, a chosen one?’ (Ned: Failed? What were they trying to breed?) Many questions and even more enemies.
‘Bring my family out!’, the father bitted and pounced at the man. Sarah took one child and the mother the other. They had to leave. And as they did, Sarah asked:
‘Ned, can’t you do anything?’
‘That man won’t be an easy enemy! And who knows how many ghouls ae on their way here! Something tells me there will be a troublesome opponent among them. I have to safe every last strength!’ And they dashed out, right towards to the stair house. That’s when on the opposite side white ghouls emerged. So many in numbers it was no use to count them. Ned shot forth. One arm clad in ice. Then he thrust his arm and the ghoul closed to it froze completely, the one behind only some limb.
‘I will hold them back and now go up!’, Ned howled and dropped to one knee. No time to think, no time to speak. Act! Sarah sprinted to the stair house and as the children were taken away they had a last look into the room where their father was fighting for his life!
