"Forgive whatever sins they had committed through human weakness and in your goodness, grant them eternal rest." said the priest as the mud began to be thrown over the casket covering two bodies which were dug deep inside the earth, side by side.
Dressed in a long black robe, the old priest with grey hair stood the closest to the bodies. The other people dressed in black outfits gathered around the two freshly dug bodies, almost forming a circle, making a small crowd in the back of the graveyard. Everyone in the circle, from the young children to the old grey-haired adults, looked down with sadness on their faces. They had been told already about the deaths of this couple a few days ago by the local newspaper but the post mortem and the police delayed the funeral.
Today, finally the day came for them to pay respect to the wea
The dark sky was filled with plenty of clouds, giving the hint of rain to all the small brown boats on the sea. The sounds of thunder began sending several men on these boats in action. All these men were dressed in dark blue shirts and trousers, with a white eagle on their shirts. They made sure to increased the speed of their boats to reach the shore but the blowing wind disturbed their actions. However, one boat was different. This boat unlike them did not have anyone. It just kept floating completely undisturbed by the waves of the sea or the strange howling winds.This boat caught the eye of another man who was dressed in blue like the others. He had dark black hair and brown skin with a black mustache. He stopped rowing the boat the moment it caught his dark black eyes scanned the boat before lowering his eyebrows."Hey guys! Did someone fall from that boat?" He asked loudly pointing it to the others."Kasun dude, just leave it. Can't you see? There is probably a storm coming
It was a cold winter night and the sound of the wolves echoed on the mountain. A man wearing a long black jacket and black jeans kept walking silently on the paved mountain road. Snow had covered the grass almost completely on either side of the road.Suddenly a bat appeared in front of him. Surprised, the man stepped back. The bat had transformed itself into a beautiful, blonde and pale woman. She wore a beautiful, bright red dress with long black sleeves. "Going somewhere darling?" she asked.Terrified, the man turned around and ran but soon he lost his strength. He found a huge tree and quickly hid behind it. His heart was beating fast and his palms began to sweat. He now realized what a stupid mistake he did by forgetting his weapons in his hotel room.The beautiful woman appeared again in front of him and laughed.
The sun shone brightly on a beautiful huge white manor, that stood in the middle of a large field. A middle-aged woman opened an old large wooden door and walked out. She had curly blonde hair and she wore a knee-length blue dress. Two girls followed her. One was tall and pretty. She had short, curly black hair. The other was short and had long blonde hair. Both the girls wore a thick dark blue jacket on black trousers and black boots. The woman on the other hand wore shoes instead of boots. They kept walking on the grass in front of the manor until they reached a large black gate. "Girls, be back on time. Go carefully and do not talk to strangers." "Mother you talk as if we are little girls," said the girl with short hair. "Nancy, mother says this as a reminder to us, so that we don't fall into a trap. Many girls have been found dead in the past week," said the blonde girl. "Of late, even your cousin Cathy is missing. Sheriff Oscar is a close friend of your father and still, he ha
Every inch of her body shivered as she lay on top of the new guy. She could barely move from being so cold.The new guy however helped her in getting up."You are cold like hell!" said Emma, shocked."Sorry. My name is Stephen Tepes.""Funny name." snapped Emma."Romanian father and English mother. What would anyone expect?"Emma walked towards a seat in the back of the bus and finally sat down in a corner. Stephen sat beside her."Why are you following me?" Asked Emma, annoyed."Just thought we could be friends," replied
Andre had agreed to go along with Emma to her secret place without telling anything to anyone but she couldn't stop thinking about Cathy. Several thoughts distracted Emma today. She kept wondering why Cathy wanted to meet with them. This wasn't the girl she knew. The Cathy she knew was quite bold. She wasn't someone who would get afraid of anyone and hide. Cathy could have called the police but she preferred to message Emma. This made Emma a bit suspicious too. At one point she wondered if this really was Cathy or just someone messing up with her.Later she realized their secret place was not known to anyone else. Cathy, Julia and Emma used to often be away from the adults, for a short while, to play in their secret place. Emma highly doubted if someone would kidnap Cathy and ask about it from her. What gave her goosebumps was the thought of going back to that secret p
Emma was very nervous about visiting her secret place, which she had shared with her friends. It was so far away from the town that Emma feared if anything bad could happen to her and Andre. She was visiting it probably after many years but she wondered how many people came across it and used it. Nevertheless, she decided to visit it for Cathy's sake. If someone as bold as Cathy was hiding in a cabin for her safety, that means the situation was very serious and she definitely needed help.The other thing that worried her was convincing Nancy. Though she could come up with the perfect excuse, what worried her was Nancy's stubbornness. So before getting out of the school, she called Andre and told him that she would require his help if Nancy was being stubborn. It wasn't something Emma liked to do but she wanted to keep Nancy away from the cabin. Emma wasn't a rebellious
Emma's ears were filled with Cathy's screams. Her friend was completely engulfed in fire and Emma couldn't do anything because this very fire was now all around her as well. The heat from the flames now increased. She tried looking around for Cathy but the growing flames made everything difficult."Cathy!" Emma finally managed to shout out but there was no response.The lack of response made Emma's heart pound in fear. She was now afraid for Cathy. The whole house was now in flames and Emma stood in confusion, trying to understand how to find Cathy. There was no means for escape. She was surrounded by the dancing flames around her. There were tears in her eyes, as she realized that this was her last day. Her head began spinning and she fell to the floor. She felt as though she could no longer breathe properly. She trie
After reaching the hospital, Andre and Emma were taken to a ward where there was hardly anyone. Two police officers stood as guards outside the ward to protect them. A female doctor checked both of them with a stethoscope. Emma was told to just take a little rest and she could leave the hospital tomorrow morning. She was no longer required to wear an oxygen mask either. Andre on the other hand would be required to stay for a couple because he required stitches. Although the doctor informed Emma that he wasn't in any danger.Though she felt relieved, a part of her was unhappy about Cathy. Her burning body and her screams were still fresh in Emma's mind. She couldn't forget about it. She tossed and turned around on the white bed until she received a call on her cellphone from her anxious mother. Someone from the hospital had informed her that she was brought to the
