I said no word, I was only dumbfounded, I know I am in a different time, I have confirmed that, am I dreaming? Is this some kind of ancient art? What is going on here? How is she alive.?
Did she follow me back here?
How is she not dead!!!
"Excuse me sir?" she said. Slowly walking close to me.
REBECCA!! How?
"Can I see an Id or something? What's your name sir?" she asked
"Rebecca?" I said as I looked at her from head to toe.
She hadn't changed. She is the same.
Or is she someone else? Maybe she is.
"Excuse me sir? Can you hear me?" she asked holding on to something strapped at the left side of her waist.
Her voice, her eyes, her skin, her bow shaped lips. She was here right in front of me.
She now dresses like them.
Well so was I but it's different.
"Can you hear me; I need to see some ID" she repeated as she looks at me in confusion as she began to reach for something.
It's obvious she had something strapped around her waist, she was holding something concealed by the shirt she was wearing.
I dare her to bring a weapon and I will transform right here and right now.
…..
Now it was quiet.
I said nothing and it was like she knew my intention;
we were both waiting for the first person to make a move as I moved clockwise to her and her anti clockwise to me.
We both looked each other in the eye, mine diluted with confusion and hers with a kind of Bold conviction.
I remember her very well, she cant harm anyone, she mostly is a pretender, the decoy sent to lure in the real enemy, she is a trap.
That's it, it's a trap, if she is here, then so are the Primis Lex, I see now, I see now.
I let out a smile and said.
"I know your plan." Taking a step forward to trigger her.
Then she brought out a weapon, a gun, unlike the last one, this one looked more improved, that ticked me off.
"Do you all just casually walk around with weapons now?" I asked with feeling the disgust of this era.
"Sir, Ill need you to get down on your knees and put your hands where I can see them." She said, rudely shouting, with a firearm pointed at me.
"oh so you guys don't immediately attack without warning? I thought you were the daughter of the Primis lex, you are weak, I see that now, you are now weak and I guess the Primis lex is now foolish." I said shacking my head and laughing under my breath.
"Regina here, calling for backup at…." She was saying, giving the address of the shop to a small radio strapped to her shoulder.
"oh so now you call…"
"sir get down on your knees, I repeat." She said with a serious face, and she also cut me short.
"I wasn't done speaking, wait who gave you the.. POWER TO SPEAK." I said then moving fast to her side to completing my words right beside her.
"Hhh." She Gasped.
"How did you move so fast." She asked swiftly moving away from me.
"Now you understand who you are dealing with, don't talk so lightly to me, not after…" I said expressing myself and moving from side to side when I heard.
"BANG!!."
Someone pulled the trigger.
But who?
I was casually explaining and moving around not paying attention but.
I can sense it. This direction, this distance. Its probably the cashier.
I dodged the bullet and calmly looked to where the sound came from and just like I suspected, it was the cashier.
I could see the shock on her face after she just witnessed me dodge a bullet, if this was scary for her then I wonder how much fear will surge through her when I chock her to death.
" DASH!"
I swiftly moved to her and in an instant before she could dodge, I grabbed her by the neck, lifting her off her earth.
"Did you really think I was that easy to kill, plus why do you all have weapons, for heaven's sake." I said as I was slowly squeezing the life out of her as her eyes blackened with fear and Horror. She shook vigorously, scratching my hand in order to get to me but she couldn't.
"let her go."
"Bang! Bang!!"
I can see it!!
I have no blind spot, as long as I have my basic arts always on, THIRD EYE, the eye in my blind spot.
I dodged the bullets and threw the cashier forward then moving into a corner.
I need to get rid of the lights, i need to end this.
"Its Intriguing how you guys' cling to life, being so feeble and pitiful" I said as I laughed, finally finding a box with a lever sticking out of the side facing up.
"CLANK!, CLANK." I switched the lever over with its head facing the ground.
"Who are…., What are you in fact." She asked, frightened by the sudden lights out.
"Cough, cough, He is a monster, Th.. That's what he is." The cashier added, barely completing her words.
"That's kind of correct but let me enlighten you, I am just like you but better." I said, walking down aisle 4, there are 9 aisle's here, with the cashier facing aisle one, Rebecca will be there too. I need to make this quick.
"You know we still have a source of light right?" She said.
That's true, there was a glass cutout in front of aisle four, stretching down to Six.
"Yeah but you are in the shadows aren't you? I replied her.
"Fuck.." she exclaimed.
"You do know I can see you right." I said, talking to the cashier slowly crawling to aisle 5, I was at aisle 4 and she was right in front of me.
She shivered, looking into the darkness, waiting for me to come out, but something was off, she knew I was in aisle 4 after she heard me, so why didn't she run to aisle 5 where there was light? Where is Rebecca?
"Footsteps….(pause)….footsteps…(pause)….Footsteps." someone is creeping, I can hear it, though it may be quiet to the ears of others it isn't to me. I can hear it.
I walked back further into the shadows playing mind games with both of them.
"HHHHH….(inhales)….HHHOOO." Rebecca inhales.
"That's some heavy breaths you got there, are you scared?." I asked as my voice echoed from the shadows.
"you really think you are smart right." She said back to me."
"well, yes, I don't think, I know." I said, walking in the shadows.
"I see you creeping and I ….." I was saying when she said.
"Got you too Bitch!!" she said raising her voice, with braze excitement.
"No you don't." I said standing right by her side.
"HUH." She exclaimed. Trying to gain ground but my attack was already prepared.
"BAM!!" The sound of my fist hitting her jaw. You really think you had me dint you? Don't make me laugh.
"ptooo." She spat out blood.
"Plan A failed." She said cleaning her mouth and letting out a smile.
what is she talking about, wait where is the cashier, I said running to aisle 4.
She wasn't there, where did she…..
"Wait." I said under my breath, focusing on every subtle sound my ears could pick.
I hear footsteps, wait there is more, they are running, it's like a stampede.
"Engaging Plan B" she said to a radio like thing she held.
"Copy that." A voice said from the radio
I was in utter confusion then it all stopped, no sound.
"You think you got me?" she shouted, from aisle one as I walked down to aisle one.
"Like I said, Bitch I got you!" she said as I finally arrived at aisle one walking to where I last saw her.
"Beep, Beep, Beep, Beep…." The sound I heard as I closed in on where I saw her last, I know she's not there but she's close.
Getting there I picked up the object and saw 0000 and then.
"Beeeeeeeeepppp." The prolonging sound it made before it went quiet.
"WHOOMP." The deafening sound I heard with a burst of violent white light coming from the object, I was blind, I was deaf, I was on the ground kneeling with my head faced down and before I could stand up, though I could barely hear, I heard this part.
"Fire in the hole."
"Beeeeeeep, Beeeeeeeep, Beeeeeeeep." I was hearing multiple beeps, knowing the aftermath of this sound I tried to run but my body lifelessly stood in place.
"Clink, clink, clink, clink, clink" The multiple round explosives landed right in front of me, going off together.
"Fuck." I let out as the deafening sound came from left and right.
"WHOOMP"
It all went quiet, I had ears but I couldn't hear. My body senses were numb and I couldn't move, this one wasn't like the remaining round explosives this one had fire, strong fire that burnt through my skin.
"..." I screamed, but even I couldn't hear myself, all I could hear was my heart beating with tremendous speed and even that was fading, I know this feeling, this is the feeling I get accompanied with the heaviness of my head, this is the feeling that I am passing out.
