Chapter 4

DRIZZLE DRIZZLE

The rain poured down heavily, wanting to wash away all the sins on earth.

“Damn this stupid rain” Williams muttered angrily as he was looking for a shelter to shield him from the rain.

Williams had no choice but to start running as the rain became heavier

Plop

Williams saw himself lying flat on the ground.

Williams became more angry, his body was covered in mud and his cloths were drenched.

“ Hey are you alright? “ a soft feminine voice asked

'Are you an idiot? Do I look alright '

Feigning a smile, Williams looked up to see who asked him such a stupid question

He froze

 'It’s her.... It’s really her. It’s the girl who saved me. The one I’ve been looking for....

He wanted to hug her, hold her tight and tell her that he had been searching for her after she saved him

'But does she still remember me...

“ Ahhh I can’t believe my beauty made you trip over” she sighed “it’s not your fault, it’s my fault for being too beautiful”

Williams scanned her from head to toe

She had short jet black hair, her face was pretty and cute and her eyes were really dark which made people feel that they were sinking into an abyss. She wore a baggy shirt with baggy shorts and a worn out sandals but that didn’t over shadow her beauty

“Hey, I know I’m really beautiful but don’t keep staring at me, I’m getting freaked out” she stretched out her hands to him

Williams face flushed with embarrassment and he quickly took her hands and steadied him self up. Then he tried to clean off the mud from his body with his hands.

The girl chuckled then she pulled out a napkin and handed it to him. Williams quickly took the napkin and wiped his muddy face.

“thank you “ Williams said, his face facing the ground

“You are welcome, be careful not to trip next time”

“I will” Williams pressed his lips together “ Before you go c-can you please tell me your name”

A slight grin appeared on her face then she chuckled “you haven’t fallen in love with me have you? “

Williams face became deep red like tomatoes “N-No I-I just.... “

“ I was just teasing you” she chuckled again “ cute”

“I’m not cute, See I got muscles” Williams said puffing out his chest, totally forgetting his body was filled with mud.

“ Yeah right” She rolled her eyes “ The name is Lucy, don’t forget it handsome”

Williams watched her walk away and the once innocent face morphed to that of an fallen angel as a smile crept up his face “Lucy”

The name did leave a wonderful aftertaste.

SOMEWHERE IN NETHERLAND UNIVERSITY

STEP STEP

Lucy ignored the crime scene tape and stepped into the restricted area

Her eyes scanned the area.

This was where the recent death took place. She came to see if she could find an evidence leading to the cause of the strange deaths or if she could get any lead concerning the culprits behind the strange deaths.

She widened her senses, scanning the whole vicinity in order to search for any evidence and to check if there was anyone around the area

Her eyes widened in shock

'Demonic energy..... No it’s not demonic energy, it’s much more denser than demonic energy '

Lucy’s eyebrows creased

'If it’s something that has to do with the spiritual then it will be harder than usual '

She was expecting something like this anyways because to be able to cause the same kind of deaths all over the world was definitely not normal

“I need to find out what exudes this kind of energy” she muttered

Creak

'Someone is here '

Lucy eyes trailed down to the shadow peeking behind a building

Hmmph

Lucy dashed with an extreme speed to the person hiding behind the building and held a dagger to its neck

“Who are you? “ Her voice was cold

“ Lucy it’s me” the voice whimpered

Lucy got a clear view of the person “ Handsome!” she frowned “ why are you following me?” she pressed the dagger deeper in his neck

“I-I... “ His legs vibrated out of fear

“Speak”

Blood slowly started dripping down from his neck

“I-I wasn’t actually following you, I came here to investigate the death of my friend “

“ your friend? “ she raised an eye brow, giving him a questioning look.

“ Yes my friend, he was one of the victims”

“why can’t you leave it in the hands of the police? “

Williams bit his lips and his eye lids drooped

“Because I know the police can’t solve it “

“ And why do you think that? “ Her pressure on the dagger reduced causing Williams to be more confident

“Cause I witnessed his death and it was definitely not normally”

“How did your friend die? “

'If he is saying the truth then he can be useful for the investigation '

“He just collapsed on the floor and his body dried up”

He just dried up? This is definitely a spiritual matter

Williams fearfully gulped down his saliva “ please can you remove the dagger from my neck, I think I’m gonna pee in my pants”

She withdrew the dagger and smiled at him sweetly “ohhh sorry handsome, I thought you were stalking me cause you wanted to lock me in a little black room or something”

'Do I really look like someone who can do something like that? I thought my acting was on point, seems I have to try harder. '

Williams clutched his chest “ for a minute there I thought I was gonna die”

“well you didn’t die”

Lucy stared at him for a second and walked away.

“Lucy wait”

She stopped

“ Umm you didn’t ask me for my name”

“was I supposed to? “ Lucy raised an eye brow

Why is she suddenly like this? did she notice something?

He looked at her and said in a low voice “ I just thought it was a polite thing to do”

“if you have nothing else to say to me I’m leaving”

“ My name is Williams, Williams Stallion “ Williams said quickly

“I don’t care”

Williams watched her walk away for the second time

He frowned

Things were not going as he expected

......

Lucy looked back

She did not believe him

 She had an ominous premonition that he was definitely not simple

He was dangerous...

In order to mess with his memory about her having powers she tried to implant her energy into him but it couldn’t enter him until she had to try it the second time.

 This had not happened before

She took her phone and dialled a number

“Lucy!!!! You finally remembered to call me” a voice filled with grievances wailed from the other end

“Rina I would never forget you, I was just busy”

“Hmph big liar, you only know how to call me when you need me for something”

“About needing you.... I need you to help me to investigate someone “

“ if it’s one of those boy you have weird crushes on I won’t help you! “

“it's a suspect “

“who? “

Lucy looked back at the direction she was coming from

“Williams Stallion”
