THE VICTIM-You killed her! You killed her! -the girl shouted at me.-No, wait," I wanted to get closer, but she instinctively backed away. She was afraid of me, it was obvious. And it didn't look good to me at all.Damn it.-You're a killer!God, those words hurt. But they wouldn't affect me because I hadn't done anything. It had all been a mix-up. A trap. Who the fuck could have done this to me?-Listen to me, I came here and found this," I dropped the hammer so she could see I was unarmed. But the girl kept backing away until her back hit a bush.-I'll call the police," she says, pulling out her cell phone.-No, don't do that," I begged. I was sure there was an explanation for all this. But as I said, it didn't look good to me. First of all, he was wearing the victim's clothes and had touched the murder weapon as well: the hammer.-I'll call the police," she repeats, holding her cell phone to her ear.Great, now I would end up in jail.-Wait, I... -But something happened: in the bl
THE COVENANTWhen we got back to school, no one said anything, it was almost ten o'clock at night. That is, I hadn't been in class all day because I had spent most of the time following clues and hiding evidence. The five of us were in the cafeteria, sitting at a table near the pool. Everything was half dark and no one was there. Not one student.-What do we do now? -Karla broke the silence.Wade was staring blankly, perhaps processing what had just happened.-I don't know, pretend nothing happened? -answers Flavia.-No one will talk about this," Elder says, "We'll make a pact. This day never existed. No one knows anything. Burn her clothes, do whatever you can with them, but make her disappear.-Pretend nothing happened? -There are two girls who will never return to their homes, one was almost a child and the other... was Amara's age. The two of them... they deserved more than to be burned in the woods.Wade was right, now I remember why he caught my attention; he was very level-head
CRIATURES-It's a Chevrolet Camaro in white! -Mell tells me more excited than Melania herself. However, I wasn't even looking at her stupid car, I was thinking about important things.-I'm having a bonfire tonight in the woods to celebrate! -Melania exclaims- You know where, in the same place.-We're going to the bonfire, right? -asks Mell.-No, I have to study. Mell, I've already seen Melania's nice car, now if you excuse me I have to go on with my work -I was about to take a step to leave but she stops me. She gets serious, as if she wanted to tell me something.-Do you have something to tell me? -I wanted to know.I found her gesture strange.Mell looks behind me for a few seconds and then puts her smile back on her face.-Nothing, I just wanted to wish you luck in your things," she turns and goes in search of Melania. I stay a few seconds trying to explain her reaction but I don't succeed, what I do is to look where she looked a few seconds ago: Elder and his group.Elder gives me
LA FOGATAElder was kissing me, however, instead of pushing him away like the first time, I let him do it. I wrapped my arms around his neck as I felt the softness of his lips. His hand travels from the back of my neck to my back, I felt the shivers run down my spine. I admit it felt very good this, too good. But his hand went from my back to lower, so I quickly pulled it up.Elder stops kissing me to leave wet kisses on my neck, near my ear.-I want to eat you," he whispered, it was a whisper that gave me some bemusement but I let it go. When Elder puts his hand under my shirt I stop him and pull away.-We shouldn't do this," I tucked loose strands of hair behind my ear.-Don't start with your stuff," he says, trying to kiss me again. But I pull away. Elder was strange and besides he had a girlfriend.-Excuse me, but I'm not your plaything with whom you entertain yourself from time to time," I crossed my arms a little indignant.He frowns.-Who says you're a toy?-It seems like it. Y
THE TAPE-You know what's involved with her being here, don't you? Plans will go awry. You'll go soft on her and that's something we can't allow. You'll hurt us all. -The tape starts running, it was a woman's voice, but what puzzled me the most was that it did sound like Mell's voice.-Forget it. -A boy's voice answers her. It's Elder.-Elder, think about it. You're not sure she's what you say she is. If you don't do anything to get her out of the way, then I will.-You don't touch her," Elder replies, "I'll kill you first.I felt chills.-Then make up your mind. We don't have your time. October's full moon is coming, we have to be ready by then. Remember we can't let this opportunity pass us by. We made a pact and we all have to keep it.October full moon? Pact?-If you touch it, you'll die.-Who said I'll touch her? -Who said I'll touch her? She'll put the noose around her own neck. I'll just... give her a little push."Elder turns off the recorder and leaves it on the coffee table
THE KEY-It's field hockey class! -Flavia exclaims, coming over to me. I was at my locker putting some books in when she appeared. Alone this time. I wonder where she left Karla. -Shall we go watch the training? -she asks, grabbing my arm.I scrunch up my face with some denial.-I don't know if it's... -I started to say, but she interrupted me:-Let's cheer up, I've noticed you a bit pensive these days so let's cheer up a bit. Just for a while, ok?I thought about it: I had nothing else to do so it wouldn't be bad to spend time on other things.-Okay.We walked in the direction of the huge field hockey room. When you're a millionaire you can have anything you want. I mean, they were all millionaires here, so... a field hockey field was nothing to them. When we arrived, there are a lot of girls watching practice. The boys were playing on the rink while the coach was correcting them. Flavia and I sat in the last bleachers a little bit away from the others.-What time did you get back la
LINKI stay static in the same place not knowing what to do, thinking of some excuse to say.-What are you doing here? -For some reason I was thankful that it was that voice and not someone else's. I turn on my heels and look at Elder. He was no longer wearing his gamer suit but was just in his uniform. Elder steps inside and closes the door behind him.-I... -What do I tell him now? Think, Amara, think.... I needed to talk about something with the director.Elder narrows his eyes, scanning me, making sure what I tell him is true.-Are you sure?-Sure, why would I lie? -Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get back-I headed for the door.-The director was about to come, if you want you can wait for him.-No. I'd rather come another time. -I was about to leave but I stopped myself- Why are you here? Was it because you hit that boy?He sighs, looking tense. I was actually looking at him a bit tense lately, I'd like to know what was bothering him. Deep down I didn't know why I was always t
CONFESSIONI opened my eyes as soon as I felt arms grab my waist. Elder lifted me onto his shoulder with impressive ease.-Put me down!-What the hell is wrong with you? -I heard Wade ask. But Elder ignored him and left the room with me.-Elder, what are you doing?! Put me down please," I stirred but it was no use.-Shh shush," he groped my ass.I gasped, feeling nervous.-Don't take advantage either, you idiot! -I snapped.-You and I are going to have a very interesting talk," he says as he walks down the stairs. The corridors were empty so I couldn't ask for help from anyone passing nearby.-Elder, we can talk like normal people if you put me down. I'm serious, I'm starting to get dizzy. -I put a hand to my head.-I need to talk to you in private.The next thing I know, we're walking out of the school, heading for his car.-Where are you taking me? I have to take classes.-You were very comfortable taking lessons with your teacher in your room then," he says sarcastically. -I wonder
As Fabiana tries to counter, "I didn't."Lee's gaze shifts between Armando and Fabiana, before returning to Armando. "Fabian, I'd like to talk to you." In the privacy of your own home?—-Nope-. Quickly, she responds. She was doing everything she could to hold back her tears. No, You can not.Lee smiles sarcastically. —Solo…— The three next to Armando's locker are being passed.by a few individuals running down the hall, and Lee decides to leave.—Fight!— Screams are heard from other people. It's time to get outside and fight!Armando looks out the window and sees that the corridor is full of people. Lee mocks everyone who runs to the theater to see the show. A member of Armando and Lee's soccer team comes running toward Fabiana as she prepares to walk away from the two boys in the crowd.“Guy!” As he approaches, the boys start yelling. Aggressor: —Rodrigo, you are about to be kicked in the open air—.Lee scoffs, shocked and amazed. Is that correct? -Yes who?-Fabiana receives a friend
Charlie moves at a breakneck pace. When his blow hits Armando in the jaw, he is speechless. Charlie throws him against the wall next to the entrance after grabbing him by the neck.Armando can't help but stare at Charlie in disbelief. Charlie's grip on him caused a small crinkle to his lip.Questioningly, "How does it feel to be the one to punch him in the face?" Charlie growls under his breath.Armando smiles and says, "You can trust me, Cal," with a wink. "I've been through so much more."Charlie's eyebrows furrow in confusion as he tries to figure out what Armando is trying to say. He, on the other hand, was in a good mood. It was fantastic to hit Armando. He had a sense of relief. The fact that Armando might have bruises was enough for him to be terrified for her. I wonder if I should have treated Rodrigo and Lee the same way.-For-. Fabiana pulls Armando's arm away from Charlie, who was holding him. "Don't do it at all." She whispers something to Charlie.Armando looks between th
Armando feels a soft spot for Lee and opens his lips to say no, he's not okay.Everything has been damaged by him. It drives Fabiana crazy. After all that, it's done. She was ready. Armando can't help you right now. It completely destroyed their relationship. Why did Charlie get a second beating? Because he succumbed to pressure from Lee and Rodrigo. It allowed them to influence his perception of Charlie. It made him envy.Nothing is going right.A wide smile spreads across Armando's face as he looks at Lee and Rodrigo. Clearly, that was not the case. Lee and Rodrigo, on the other hand, aren't paying attention.-Everything is alright.-The house was a mess and Fabiana's mother would be home in two hours.It's been exactly a week since Harry, Lauren and Armando moved into the house they were in and they had nothing with them. There were also two teenagers and two young children living there without supervision. Not surprisingly, the location was a scam.As Fabiana was cleaning up her l
"I'm sure this is a friend," I promise.Relax Travis. This house belongs to his family, and when I come back next month, I guarantee I'll be able to tell you why. Really, I'm working on improving myself. Once I get back, I think we'll have a good time getting together.— Swat , seriously? That is not good for me. In my opinion, you're just taking advantage of a defenseless young woman looking for a new best friend. Your character will remain unchanged, will it not ?—"Travis, I'm making a move!" That's exactly how I feel! As far as I'm concerned, she used to be one of the worst scumbags on the planet.What is the problem?— You have become a completely different person. Has it impacted your life in any way? Swat , you are the epitome of a pitiful person. We just wanted you to take a moment to commemorate the man who started this band, though it may be too late now... No, this conversation needs to take place right away. "See you in a few weeks."Then the phone went silent.Why didn't h
ceiling that ends up blurring into the tiny opening in the divider that it is on the opposite finish of the speaker.A radio .” Peter's voice makes us think backwards, leaning into a section. Maybe a radio?"In case you help us with the chains, we can find out," Juana references.Surprisingly, Pedro agrees without persuading him and, in fact, breaks the chains that prevent us from opening the entrance.After entering, we find that it is a quarter range and every surface is covered in a thick layer of debris, much like the locker."Okay, we're here ." What are they going to do with that old radio? “ Shake this great núAngelo of individuals out of their determined state of mind ?” Peter plans, closing the entrance behind him."Do you remember that the phones couldn't be geolocated?" I ask my partner. What could be said about the photographs in Franco Thomson's room?"Do you suppose this place, whatever it is, caused it?""I think this place, along with William Hunt, caused the attractiv
by the rays of the moon, however, when we leave the passage completely, I find that there is anything but a lonely window. The lighting should be something created with charm.Congratulations !" They looked at one more piece of the ghost train station — cheers ironic Peter, who I have no idea about when he happened to stroll before we strolled behind us.“Is this the exit plan?” I request to know, my voice being as small as a breath."Assuming we'd go out," Peter scoffs sullenly. — Maybe they should get off the tracks, Trent tells us, stopping. Both Juana and I imitate him and also look at him with curiosity. - Because? — My partner questions it."Since that's the entrance. " "And the exit," he declares, pointing a finger ahead, toward the continuation of the rails and the darkness that covers them; abruptly thunder is heard, although it gives me the inclination that it doesn't come from paradise, however, from here, from what the mist keeps, and the neighing of a pony follows. They a
“Since you tried to kill Mac and aligned yourself with Kate to transform him into a berserker ,” Juana communicates with a stop of aggravation, rubbing her sanctums.“Besides, the ghost riders do it, they take you out,” I add, remembering the part where he said he got shot.“The apparition riders ?” the wolf restates, his voice coming out an octave higher. The Horsemen from William Hunt's apparition?In fact," Juana and I froze tiredly.“Do you even have any idea what we mean?” I questioned to understand the words he used.Pedro lets out a heavy breath before sitting down on the seat in front of us, which, oddly enough, isn't full."Obviously I know what you're talking about," he says. They mount the beams. They are a ruthless power of nature. I guarantee you don't make rest stops at train stations, though, he says, flashing a pecuAmyr grin at the older person sitting to my left. I can hardly imagine how this is my jail, much less the exile I was granted,” he murmurs with a frown. Thi
"Perhaps it implies we were closer than we suspected ." Perhaps there is something different below, something we haven't found at this time."In fact, nothing to help my better half, who I remember is still your sister," I spat out annoyed. We can't stay here, trusting that something...Eventually someone pushes me, causing me to hit my head seriously on the divider. The darkness immediately engulfs me, however instead of sucking me in and staying in the absolute pit, it sends me straight back to my fondest memories with Justoedith . Actually, they are every second I've spent close.I see his excellent smile and pay attention to his melodic laugh, which very often turns into a sound like that made by pigs and embarrassment even though I never tire of letting him know that I love him; I see her hands entwined with mine, remembering how well the space between her fingers fits with mine; I feel Am Loves , filling me with a sense of harmony that makes me feel like I'm drifting. I see Just
— Blow — back.— The tracker lunges forward and lands a right hand that overwhelms Jorfit and me. He spits a couple of drops of blood directly onto Angel 's shirt simultaneously as he rubs his jaw, and as his eyes land on my partner, there is fire in his gaze. Assuming he's right about Augustus, things will deteriorate here. Much, he states that obviously and gradually, it almost seems like he is delivering a hidden danger in him. It better not be the situation.“ Couldn't care less.” “ Could n't care less.” I give up and stand up in a lonely build.They should . ” “Because assuming your father wins, he won't be lord of anything,” he warns. I go through the five stages ahead of me and stop just to one side of Sasha.“What's happening to him?” I'm interested to know, but Jorfit rolls his eyes and pivots. A part of indignation hits me the moment I see him venture towards the entrance and urges me to preventHim getting out of here without first providing me with an answer that would help
