Chapter 101

I began pacing around the room. "This is just insane. I don't understand any of it." My mind whirled with questions and the most prominent was just one word. How? The pacing and mental gymnastics did nothing to bring me closer to answers. I only had one response to my confusion. "Avamarie!" I shouted. No response. "Avamarie!" "What are you doing?" Benjamin asked uncovering his ears. "I'm calling Avamarie. She's the only one who can tell me if this is really possible." "She can't hear you," he insisted. I gave a harsh sarcastic laugh. "Are you kidding me? Do you honestly think she isn't right here over my shoulder listening right now?" Still no response came. "Avamarie! Get your ass in here now!" I screamed stomping my feet in anger. Out of nowhere a soft glow pulsated in the middle of the room. It shinned brighter and brighter until the outline of a woman was clearly visible. Well, 'clearly' was a bit of a stretch. I could still see Herb's bewildered face through t

I jerked awake when the bed I was laying in suddenly bucked me to the ground. I immediately reached for my gun before I realized with horror that I didn't have it. Before my drowsy mind fully comprehended where I left it, I was tossed to the ground again. I grabbed the nearest seat I could and pulled myself up once again. Then I held on as tight as I could so I wouldn't be tossed again. The plane was jerking side to side and up and up like it was on a roller coaster ride doomed for hell. Once I got my ears to pop and the annoying ringing to vanish, I could hear the desperate screams of the others in the group. Anger and fear rolled through me. 'We'll be fine' he said. 'I'll get us there safely' he said. I sneered in my head trying to keep myself upright so I could check on the boys. I looked over at Johnny and Marcus only to see them huddled together and screaming my name. I jerked myself across the tiny aisle between us and wrapped my arms around them as if that was all it would t

I raced up to the cockpit my moment of relaxing and feeling victory gave way to a pounding heart that was threatening to burst. The sun had just barely begun peaking up over the horizon illuminating the tall building of a vast metropolis area."Where the hell are we?" I asked in panic. "From the barren landscape, I'm not an expert, but I'd say… Texas." I guess there was a bright spot to this shit-icicle, I thought sardonically. "How is this plane flying?" I quizzed."I managed to find the autopilot," she said proudly. "Okay… so why don't you… TURN OFF THE AUTOPILOT AND PULL US UP?" I screamed unable to understand how she couldn't see the obvious solution. "I TRIED!" she shouted back. "But apparently it's not as 'point and click' as turning it on was.""Try again," I demanded. Cynthia flopped down in the pilot seat with a puff of exasperation. She quickly began fiddling with the buttons and cussing under her breath. I jumped into the co-pilots seat to help as the building began

Erin looked very pale and there was a slight bruising around one of her eyes. "What happened to you?" I asked her. "I smacked myself in the face with the armrest," she said holding it up. "It broke loose when the wing went through the tail end of the plane." I rushed out to the boys to find them both sitting up in the seats still holding onto each other. Johnny was the first to get to me since the minute Marcus stood up his legs gave out. I sat on what was left of the floor and held them both to me. "Mommy, is this almost over with? I'm tired of being scared," Johnny admitted quietly in my ear sniffling back tears. "Yes, baby, this is almost over. I'm so proud of you both. You guys are being so brave," I whispered to them not even bothering to hold back my tears. Benjamin's legs bumped into me as he got up. I glanced up in time to see him rush out the back of the plane and promptly vomit… again. "Oh… my… god," I said as I looked over at what was once the tail section. "Oh m

We swerved and burst through the open door seconds before the Eaters were on our tails. I didn't know where I found the strength, but I managed to slam the door shut in their faces. But our victory was much too short lived, we barely had a moment to breathe before the windows shattered and several of the creatures fell into the room getting instantly trampled by the ones behind them. Benjamin lifted his shot gun and fired at three of them then he helped a recovered Erin back to her feet. She grabbed a gun out of the back of Benjamin's pants and began her own barrage of bullets. "Let's go!" I shouted grabbing at them. We fled through the building and spied a large metal door that would surely stop all of them long enough to let us get away. We sped through it and then leaned our bodies against the door to hold it shut as the Eaters proceeded to bombard it again. I leaned against the fence to catch my wheezing breath while trying to find some sign that Cynthia had passed this way

Keeping her chin tilted down, Erin kicked and punched at the Eater that was trying to pin her down. The blows that Benjamin was delivering were strong enough that it would have knocked a normal man out. He would have succeeded with the Eater as well if it wasn't for the last one finally making its move and in the process of trying to crawl on top of him it pinned his legs down.As dire as the situation was it gave me the perfect opportunity to move. I kept myself low and, in a flash, I had the pipe in my hand. Without a second thought I slammed the metal rod into the third Eaters legs. There was a very audible crack as the bone gave way to the metal. The Eater went down hard, but I didn't wait around to see what happened next. I raised the rod and went after the next one hitting it in its stomach with a perfectly aimed blow. It rolled off Benny caught off guard since its entire attention was centered on getting his soul. Benjamin rolled up swiftly then grabbed the Eater before it coul

"Where's Erin?" I asked Benjamin. He pointed to the fire escape. She was standing on the stairs looking up. "They began to climb on top of each other to get to her. Kind of like a Soul Eater ladder; it was creepier than hell. So, I pulled her up and we ran." He shook his head with bemusement at the creature's tenacity. "Here," he said suddenly picking a large knife off the floor by the door. "Looks like one of the Eater's must have dropped this." I took it gratefully and tucked it away. I had a sick feeling that I was going to need it very soon. "Erin and I are gonna make our way downstairs to try to close the door. You keep looking around up here and see if you can spot Cynthia," he said waving Erin in the building. I watched them descend the stairs apprehensively as we all went off on our own hoping they had stay safe. Although by the looks of it, they worked well together. It shocked me how grown-up Benny had become. It looked like years had tacked on their wear and tear in

He nodded at me and grabbed Benny's hand his obedience for me rather than her enraged her even further sending her two steps closer to the edge. She snapped her fingers at him as if he was a dog. "Get over here. I told you she's not your mommy I am, and you will not listen to her anymore." I took a step closer to her hoping to draw her attention back to me. But she was lost in the picture of herself that she was trying to paint for all to see. "These boys," she chuckled breathlessly. "They just don't listen to their mommy. Ever since you left, I've been trying to tell them I was their real mommy, but they didn't listen. Guess, I'm just gonna have to punish them and make sure they know. Then get rid of Benny and Erin, of course. They both have been in my way when I try to discipline the boys." She gave Benjamin a cruel smile and tsked a few times. "Can't have that now, can we?" Johnny whimpered and hid his face in Benjamin's side holding him tighter understanding the threat that wa

We had barely stepped out the door when Benjamin scooted us back in. I opened my mouth to ask him what the hell, but he quickly raised a finger to his lips looking urgently. I pressed my lips together and listened for a moment. Heavy booted footsteps were clunking up the stairs and the owners were whispering back and forth. "I saw them go in here.""Are you sure?" "Yes. If it weren't for the screaming, I wouldn't have seen them.""I think your losing your mind. I didn't see anyone come in here." "I swear I saw them." "You're seeing things, man." A spark of recognition hit both Benny and I at the same time. "Craig?" I mouthed to him. "No way. He shouldn't have made it this far yet," Benny said back. "We have to check," I said to him. He nodded and made a sign for us to stay here. I nodded and stepped back inside with the boys. "What's going on, Mom?" Marcus asked as soon as the door closed. "Benjamin and I think that Craig's here," I explained to him. Marcus and Johnny's

Craig opened his mouth to argue more then closed it obviously agreeing that we needed to move on. "That's quite an interesting truck," I said raising an eyebrow at them. "It helps when the freeways blocked," Gerard said with a wide grin. "We found it outside of Oklahoma. Saved a lot of time." A smile twitched at my lips. Typical males. If they could smash, bash, or blow something up they're going to. "Alright, well… let's get on the move," I repeated. In no time at all everyone was loaded up. Of course, the truck was too small for us all to sit inside so all of us except the boys sat in the back. As we drove down the crowded street the truck would jerk every time, they smashed something out of the way, making the ride very bumpy and uncomfortable, but I had never been so happy to feel the wind in my face again. We made a quick stop at the edge of town to resupply included gas. I had never seen anyone syphon gas out of a gas pump before. It was quite a feat to be hold and I ma
