Chapter 4 Sonic

David POV ?? After dismissal, I took the school bus instead of waiting for my driver I just needed to trek, maybe It might ease some things I was dropped at a junction that would be easier for me to go home I started the journey It wasn t far I came across a house that doesn t have a fence An old woman was sitting before the house She kept herself busy with sowing I was just admiring how serious she was She dropped it and went inside, probably to get something I felt the demon in me immediately "What again?" I asked myself Before I knew it, I found myself inside the compound I stood close to the door The woman opened the door and lost it as she fell unconscious I divided her heart into two as blood started bumping out I brought my face closer and drank to my satisfaction ?????? ….. Dorothy POV ?? In the night, when we were done with our dinner My Uncle was in his small room, was busy taking down some records I guess it was time to let it out It doesn t have a door, so no need to knock I walked in and sat close to him "You don t have to worry about helping me with the records, you should have some rest" my Uncle said not even looking at me Truth is that I wasn t there to help in the records So I remained mute He noticed that there was something else more than what he thought He adjusted his eyeglass just to take a look at me My head was facing down When I noticed that he was looking at me, I raised it up "What s the problem?" He asked That was what I expected "You looks so worried" he added "There was a demon in the school today" I replied He removed his eyeglass completely "How did it go?" My uncle asked I took my time in explaining to him exactly what happened earlier that day at school "What?! Does it mean he was possessed?" He asked "I can t tell, even the guy was acting normal, I guess he s not aware of it" I replied "Then you need to be closer to the guy because this is the only way to end them, we can use him to end their existence" he said "How do you mean?" I asked because I was really confused ?????? ….. David POV ?? That night, after dinner, My father went straight to his study room while my Mom finds her way to her room I decided to study a little that night I was just looking at my book but what was running within me was about those two girls I got to know that the other girl was Jenny by name Dorothy in the other hand was another headache She started ignoring me all of a sudden I couldn t calculate that Why did she started behaving like that Since she truly saw that, I had to be close to her Since she could see it, she must have known something about them Another strange thing was the woman I killed that afternoon I couldn t figure it out I tried shouting but it never showed up I was lost in thought when my book slammed itself closed as wind took over the room I just balanced well knowing who was coming I was just ready to confront it that moment Soon I couldn t feel myself anymore I know he has taken over I struggled with it but it was already late I felt thirsty for blood immediately I was just leaking my mouth as I stood up Finding my way to where I was sensing bloods I got to my Dad study room and opened it without knocking I closed it from behind and locked the door "Who s that?" My Dad asked but I didn t say a word I guess he turned The room has a tiny light that was shining directly to the table where my Dad kept his documents That s why he off the room s light He has his torch light with him as well "Oh, David, you should be in your room now, it s already late" he added flashing me the torch light and offing it almost immediately but still, I didn t reply I felt a sharp object growing out from my fingers and my eyes changed to complete black but was covered with bloods My teeth changed as well, to black It has already taken control totally I couldn t control it I could tell my Dad was scared for ignoring him He stood up when noticed me stargering He picked up his torch light again and put it On But he couldn t believe what he was seeing and the torch light off by itself He wanted to shout but I was already close, I used my hand to cover his mouth I brought out my fingers which was already filled with claws My first target was his neck as he struggled with his breath Bloods splashed everywhere I bents down and sucked to my satisfaction I was still leaking my mouth when a knock came to the door "Sweetheart it s already late" that was my Mom s voice "I will be with you in some minutes" I couldn t believe that it spoke through me and it sounded exactly as of my father s own ….. David POV ?? The following morning, I was just sitting in my room starring at the ceiling I could tell that my Mom has not yet discovered that my Dad was dead because everywhere was silent I wasn t able to sleep the previous night because what happened was something I couldn t hold The worst part was that the demon has refused to show up The most unbelievable part of it was that anytime I killed them and turned back to my own self, not even a stain of blood will be left in my body Both my mouth, fingers and clothes will be as if nothing happened "Jesus!!!" That was what I heard next I had to rush out from my room pretending not to know what the scream was all about "Oh no!!" My Mom cried out I rushed inside my Dad s study room and it was worse than before The whole room was filled with bloods His eyes was totally damaged His nose was covered with bloods His chest was divided into two My Mom couldn t lift up her head from the floor as she sob endlessly The other end of the room was our house help crying I was just standing there, starring at the corpse I had nothing in mind to do I hated myself I wished there could be a way on getting back on the demon but I knew there wasn t Few minutes later, the entrance door which led to the living room was opened The study room s door was just at the right hand side of the living room I turned as three policemen in their uniforms matched in I guess my Mom has called them earlier before I arrived I made clear for them while they walked inside but one of the policemen stopped before me and turned looking at me I guess he has more rank than others From the look of things He returned his face forward "C. O. P Kelly" the higher ranked policeman said as he brought out his ID card, showing it to my Mom, who was already standing up She stood up immediately she noticed their arrival My Mom nodded still sobbing "Sergeant John and Sergeant Henry" COP Kelly introduced the other two policemen who came with him while all my Mom did was to nod The COP (Chief Of Police) Kelly bent over my Dad s dead body He stood up after some minutes "What actually happened?" COP Kelly asked turning to my Mom "I can t tell, after dinner, he decided to visit his study room as usual, meanwhile I went straight to my room because I needed some rest" my Mom paused trying to control herself "I waited for him for close to two hours which wasn t as usual as he used to stay" "So I came down to know if he has slept off, when I knocked for him, he told me that he would be with me very soon, which means he was still awake, I had to return to my room" "After 30 minutes, he was still not yet back, so I went down again, I knocked for him again but there was no response, I tried opening it, but the door was locked from inside, that was unusual, I couldn t sense anything bad then, so I returned to my room after wishing him goodnight" "So this morning, there was no sign of him when I came down, I decided to let him be until I finish the breakfast, when I was done, I came to call him" "Surprisedly, the door was open, I pushed it open but only to behold his dead body" my Mom burst out crying I was just surprised when she said that she came back 30 minutes later and the door was locked but this morning, it was opened I was just confused because I left immediately my Mom leave after knocking So how come it was locked and later got opened? "This is strange because it doesn t look like a human hands" the COP Kelly said as he looked at my Mom and then back to the deaf body "As in the fingers and the palm am seeing here is not of human being, I guess he was attacked by an animal" He added "How could animal attack someone in this house and we weren t able to hear, not even its voice nor my husband s own?" My Mom asked I wouldn t blame the COP Kelly on what he said because he was just confused "It doesn t look like a human finger and this was exactly what we saw on a woman who was killed yesterday, just exactly as this and the woman happened to live in this same area" the COP Kelly replied On hearing that, my mind ran to the old woman I killed that previous day while coming back from school I could see that my Mom was confused on that "He must be your son?" COP Kelly asked pointing at me Fear filled my whole body What was he up to "Was the gateman at work last night?" The COP Kelly asked while my heart came back to rest "Yes, he s always" my Mom replied "Am sorry but we have to take him with us to the station, he have some questions to attend even your house help will be needed as well" COP Kelly said While our house help gasped "Sir, I don t have any idea of what happened" our house help tried defending "Are you trying to tell me that they might be aware of this?" My Mom asked looking more confused "I didn t say that either" COP Kelly said instead "Am just doing my job" COP Kelly added The ambulance arrived that minute as nurses rushed inside the building and took the body away I couldn t control the tears that was rushing down my eyes "Don t worry ma am, I will personally investigate on this" COP Kelly said He looked at me once more before walking out Followed by the other Sergeants Sergeant John held our house help though without handcuffing her I walked slowly behind them They also took our gateman I could tell that he was very very surprised "Won t you be going to school today?" My Mom asked from behind I turned not believing what I heard "How can I? When something like this happened?" I asked Another set of tears were already forming in my eyes "The only thing sure in life is that we can never undo what has already happened, we can only correct it by avoiding it from happening again" my Mom said "Besides, you just started and you are in exam class, you don t need to lack behind" my Mom added ?????? ….. Jenny POV ?? It was Thursday and the fourth day since I heard from Jason I always miss him ? What baffles me more was that he never called since he left I wish he was safe I got dressed up and left for school My mind ran to the new guy who turned to the demon immediately he walked in I couldn t tell if he knew about it or not because he never act like one and he was so gentle Although I can t tell if he was really gentle It might be because it was his first time in school I got to school and found my way to the class The class was already filled with my classmates but the new guy was not I greeted those that cares for it and I found my way to my seat I stood and took a good look at the whole classroom Still I couldn t find him Then I sat down bringing out my books 'he might be a latecomer I thought I don t know why I cared to see him but I just felt like I dropped my bag and went outside I needed to freshen up My stomach was really disturbing me ? Few minutes I was done I sighed before walking out I was almost closed to the entrance when someone blocked me It was Zita "What s the meaning of this?" I asked confused "I don t know if you are a slut" Zita said Shocking me I couldn t recall where that was coming from "What does that supposed to mean?" I asked "I want you to stay away from David, you can t be having both David and Jason" she said I couldn t get it because there was no one in our class that bears David as a name "Who is David?" I asked, just to know first "The new guy" she replied On hearing that, I was beyond shocked When I haven t for once speak with him "You got to be mad, I don t even have anything to do with him" I said and walked passed her She was saying something but I didn t bother listening I got inside the class I didn t waste time in sitting down It was because Jason wasn t there that was why that rubbish happened As in, if Jason was around, I would be with him rather than having encounter with Zita of a girl The mistake I had made so far was not asking Jason s gang if they have heard from him or not I was about to try that when someone sat beside me "Hi" she greeted It was Benny Jason s cousin I was surprised because ever since we became classmates, we had never for once speak to each other because never liked Jason s life "Hi" I responded "I guess you are surprised" Benny said smiling but I didn t reply her as I focused back to my desk Bringing out my books "I don t know if we are supposed to be enemies just because you are dating my cousin and I don t like him" Benny added "What do you want?" I asked not ready to talk much still focusing forward "Don t be harsh, I just want us to be friends" Benny replied "All of a sudden?" I asked as a surprise smiles curved my mouth turning to face her "There s no point in keeping malice" Benny said instead while my eyes widened "I don t keep malice, just that I like respecting people s lives" I said then turned back to my books "So, Friends?" Benny asked stretching out her hand I thought for a while before turning to face her "Friends" I responded, taking her hand while she smiled "I will be staying here till my brother comes back" Benny said making me to smile "I have no problem with it" I said She started bringing out her books because she came with her bag "So have you heard from him since he left?" Benny asked I turned in surprised but she didn t turn "As in how is he doing?" She asked again before turning to face me "I pray that he is doing good, he haven t called since then" I had to tell her the truth Maybe she might get something to say about it "Bad" she said Just then, a teacher came in while we greeted him Our maths teacher Mr Sanjay The teaching began ± "So that will be all for today" Mr Sanjay said after teaching I could see another teacher standing at the door post, waiting for Mr Sanjay to leave "One more thing" Mr Sanjay said while everyone paid more attention although we almost greeted him for dismissal "The new guy who came yesterday, why is he not here?" Mr Sanjay asked Who could tell when he was still new But I had to think of something "I guess something came up that s why he didn t come" I said "No, he went to get something from his former school" A student from the back said I turned and it was Zita Could it be that they really know each other? I asked within me ?????? …..COP Kelly POV ?? I couldn t tell what was really happening I have this gift of perceiving demons that sucks bloods When I got to the woman who called for our service She was new in the country Her call came in so early that morning asking for our service Since I was the one in charge, I had to go by myself but when I got there, the guy who was standing at the room s door post was smelling bloods I stopped before him to examine it but the smell vanished I couldn t get it I couldn t tell how it happened but it just happened I would have liked to take him as well for questioning but I don t know why I couldn t He was the only son and I wouldn t believe if the only son would kill his father I took the gateman for trial "Where were you last night? I asked him He was seriously scared It was obvious on his face "At my duty post" he replied "Did anyone attacked you?" I asked "No, officer" he replied "Did anyone bribe you?" I asked "No" he replied "I don t want to make this hard on you, is better you tell me the truth" I said keeping a serious face "I swear to God, I don t know, I only heard ma am screamed this morning but I didn t go to check because I was on duty, I was even surprised when I saw you people and the ambulance, later they took my boss s body as bloods were all over him" he explained It was pointless bringing him along I ordered them to take him away and bring in the house help "I will only ask you this once and if I didn t get what I want, you won t like what will happen next" I tried threatening her "What happened last night?" I asked "I don t know Sir" she replied I will not have to blame them because I think it was a demon I had to tell the woman that it might be animal because she wouldn t believe that demons do exist It was hard to believe in such thing ?????? …. David POV ?? The following morning which was Friday I had to go to school because my mom was seriously on my neck that she wouldn t like me to fail 'Since police are into it, I believe they will find it That s what she said I dressed up and went for school Everybody was just looking at me when I walked in I don t know why Zita waved from the back I smiled and waved back Dorothy was not around when I came in I sat down on our seat I looked at my left side and Jenny was looking at me She changed her gaze forward One girl was sitting beside her I haven t seen her before But how could I, when I was just new ± During break period, we all went out as usual In the cafeteria, I looked everywhere just to know if I could see Jenny but she wasn t there I just want any opportunity to meet her but Zita was a hindrance "It was really boring yesterday" Zita tried starting up a conversation "I just had to run things" I lied "I hope it went well?" She asked while I nodded smiling "Hello guys" a guy greeted interrupting what Zita was about to say "Hello" I responded smiling That s what I have been expecting I didn t get attracted by Zita just that I wanted to make friends "Can I?" The guy asked "Sure" I replied "I guess you haven t meet me before" the guy said For sure, I haven t seen him "Am Victor" he said stretching out his hand I took it smiling "Am David, I guess you know her?" I asked referring to Zita while he nodded Victor started a conversation I could tell from the way he was acting, that he needed me to excuse them but I had to get a reason before My eyes was searching for Jenny I sighted her walking out of a building which they said was the school library But she stopped at a spot checking out something in the book she was holding "Please guys, I have to use the washroom" I said standing up "Okay bro" Victor responded I took another way instead of walking directly to where Jenny was "Hello" I greeted as I stood before her "Jesus!" She screamed a little stargering back "Please let me be" she added before walking pass me I turned my gaze to the cafeteria Victor and Zita was still busy with whatever they were saying I followed her from behind I had to walk ahead of her and dragged out her books from her hand "Oh no, please my books" she requested stretching out her hand but we didn t stop walking We got to the passage I turned backing where I was going, making me to face her as I walked using my back "Please hear me out first" I pleaded "What do you want?" She asked and stopped placing her palm on her face I stopped as well "I just have few questions to ask" I replied "Wait a little" she said and continued walking I turned, making both of us to be looking forward She took the lead "I want to go upstairs" she added while I nodded We walked up to the school hall That was my first time being there It was really big I used it to know how large the building was, from inside "Go on" She said immediately we got there There was no seat in there, talk more of a desk "Why do you choose here?" I asked instead I thought we would sit "It will be dangerous if we happened to be together inside the class, discussing" she replied "Am confused, how do you mean?" I asked "Since you come to this school, have you ever seen me with any guy?" She returned the question And the truth was there I haven t "No, but why?" I asked back "Because of my boyfriend, he s not around but he is being feared" she replied I was confused because I didn t get it I waved it off "I just want to know why you keep on screaming, anytime you sees me?" I asked "Do you see ghosts?" I added asking I guess I was fast She took her to explain to me about her dream It was really something else "But am not one" I said after the explanation
