Chapter 2: Bloody mary (002)

The creature looked at me who is standing petrified i trying so hard to move my body but it won't budge at all like there is nails being hammered down my feet , the creature now moving slowly on all fours slowly like looking at it's prey it look at me straight in my eyes with and that's unsettling toothful of wide smile like it's have been set permanently that way

'run!' my thought screams

'goddamn move it!' i screams in my mind , i try to get my body to listen to my will while the things keep moving slowly approaching me my mind running wild until the creature face have been mere inches of my face all black eyes that stares deep in your soul , it's mouth start salivating like it have seen it's next dinner

In the mist of desperation i muster all my courage that's left to move my body but, instead of start bolting for the apartment door and run for it my genius mind start lifting my arms and slapped the creature face.

The slapped creature once again start to turn back to my face slowly seemingly feels insulted by the action that just happened by who you ask?by yours truly of course, i always have ways to fucked up the fucked up situations

"Fuck" when the realization of what i did start to sink in, all i can do is standing there pray and hope the creature will be scared and ran of to wherever hell he is spawn from.

But that wishful thinking is shattered in mere second by the big thin almost claw like hand grabbed my body and lift me up like a toy with only it's one hand

The creature look at me straight and start to screaming at my face , at this point my soul has start to leave my body
Then the creature fully enraged throw me out from my apartment building window which is on fifth floor, sending me straight down to the road , i should be die.

But i didn't, which is weird it still feels like my bones is shattered for a second but i start to recover, i would love to hang around in middle of the rain and wonder about it ,but the ugly bitch didn't give me luxury to.

The creature looked at me from my apartment balcony howling and jumped out of the balcony and I start bolting , it keeps chasing me down a few blocks until i found a great idea to hide in some alley.

"Whew, that thing is persistent even my landlady is not that persistent" exhausted i try to control of my breathing on the side of trash bin i found to hide

"Hmmm~?, Aren't you quite a charmer?" Suddenly a pretty feminine voice is heard right above me.
'gulp' i started to slowly looked up praying for it's not that creature that start talking to me in female voice
When i looked up i see a girl crouching cutely over the trash bin lid looking straight down at me with eyes as red as blood, blonde shoulder length hair it's quite hard to see when the rain still pouring down pretty hard to see but, the lamp in the alley help me to figure out the face of the lady who talked to me

"Yo, been awhile isn't it? Kei" the face that i haven't seen long awhile 15 years to be exact, why 15 you ask? Because she should have been pass away for that period of time.

"M-mary....?" Stunned that's the only word that can came out from my mouth , it's her alright maybe she looks older but the way she talk and her voice it's definitly her, but how? She is dead, i was at her funeral ,what the hell is happening today? First that thing and now this i must have gone insane

"What is it? , it's like you saw just a ghost or something?" Curiously she ask like I'm the one who is weird

"Well anyway, you are pretty late bloomer aren't you?, Bestie" casually she said like i miss out on something that should have happened long ago 'am i the crazy one here?' i thought to myself which seems to be pretty logical guess at the time

while i still have so many question there is sounds of steps coming in the alley growling along the way the creature seems have found me and seems about to jumped at me and bite my head off

"oh? there it is, i looking for it for weeks now, so you really come this far huh?" seemingly unfazed by the fact there is monster mary stand between me and the beast

"i was thinking about just subdue you and sending you back to the other side and be dealt with there,but it seems you give my best friend quiet a scare so you will not have easy dead" sudden chill run down my spine after heard her saying that it's not because of the rain but there's something oozing out from mary right hand it's blood after a while there is a pool of blood forming under mary feet.

"Mary-" my word cut short but her finger infront of my lips

"i know you have many question , and i don't blame you i will gladly to answer since seems like you have awaken yourself too" she said with kind and calm that gradually change to a bit of cold "but, let me deal with this thing first"suddenly from the pool of blood there is thing rise from it a scythe have risen from it with it's blade colored of deep blood red and mary effortlessly grab the scythe even taller and havier than her with her one hand

"alright, come at me skinny i don't get whole night" she taunts
