The Jinns Amongst Us

Chapter 01

Yes, I did it, not unknowingly, I willingly made sure the barrier of Sheik'fila should fall, in order to strength our dark magic upon the universe." said Khayun. "You did, but under the cost of lives." said Ulric.

"Must we go over this again? I did what had to be done! If I hadn't broken the barrier, our world would have strengthened itself to fight the nulgaths!" yells Khayun. "Silence! you will not speak against the great one!" yells back Chakula to which Khayun pounds on the stand.

"Enough of this, I grow tired of your disrespectful attitude, however, your actions, at the same time, had not gone unnoticed, by breaking the barrier, our link towards the dark magic was strengthened, which played a key role in our wars against the nulgaths and many foes over the past years." said Ulric.

"I.. am quite.. surprised." said Khayun. "There is nothing to be surprised of, we merely did what you spoke, we can neither reward you, or punish you for your actions." said Ulric. "But you already punished me, locked me there for so long, I lost track of time." said Khayun. "That was due to the lives you cost us, their families demanded justice." said Ulric.

"It was a small price to pay for a greater cost." said Khayun. "You bastard! you speak if their lives meant no hold, do you even know their names?" asked Zai'l. "No, but everyone knows mine, don't they?" asked Khayun. "My lord, Khayun, please, put aside your quarrels and hear your judgement." said Olc'ik.

"Silence! All of you! I am done with your foolish behaviour Khayun, I tolerated the best I could, but no more, you are no longer the boy I dreamt of becoming king, just a shadow of a former self come to haunt me!" said Ulric. "Yes! sire! kill him, send him to the deep!" said Chakula.

"Know your place Chakula! or your next place would be the deep!" yells Ulric to which Chakula remains silent as do Khayun in shock since he had never seen Ulric speak at anyone in the trial before.

"Now, Khayun Jinni, on behalf of the Alqada, I hereby sentence you exile in Earth for eternity, you are not to step in the Alj'ahim or any other places ever again, and if we ever see you, you would spend the rest of your days in eternity, do you understand?" asked Ulric.

"Yes.." said Khayun silently. "I said, do you understand!" yells Ulric. "Yes, I understand." said Khayun louder. "Good, prepare the extraction, make sure it is sealed." said Ulric.

Soon once the preparations are done, Khayun steps aboard the view where the portal way begins preparing, as minute passes, he slowly starts to feel weary of his physical form and slowly turns into a formless being.

"What the hell?" asked Khayun as slowly his formless shape is absorbed into the portal and shot down to Earth.

Meanwhile, In Earth on a lonely road in the midnight of London city in Ontario Canada, a vehicle is driving quite fast. It is driven by couple of teenagers who are drunk, but what it seem unlikely is Timothy Blake, a brilliant kid wakes up surprisingly under the deck of their car, tied up inside against his will.

Timothy tries to recall how he did up here, rather than glimpses of feeling sleepy after having his drink, he seems to remember nothing.

He tries to take out his phone from the back of his pocket, but unable to, out of frustration, he knocks rapidly on the above, grabbing the attention of the car passengers. "Bro, I think he's awake." said Brian.

"Yeah, should be, we're riding for hours now, when will we get there?" asked Josh to the kid driving the vehicle, Matthew.

"Shut up, alright, if we're finishing him off, we need to do it some place safe, it can never link back to us." said Matthew. "Finishing him off? bro what do you mean?" asked Brian. "You're too dumb to even understand what finishing up means Brian?" asked Matthew.

"Bro, I know what it means, which is why, it got be concerned, what do you mean by finishing him off? you're going to kill him?" asked Brian to which Matthew remains silent. "Hey, Mathew." said Josh.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm here, alright, then, just shut up, okay? I got this, nothing to worry about, one more i***t off our tail." said Matthew. "Dude, you can't be serious, I thought you're gonna scare him or something." said Josh.

"I told so too, maybe we should stick to that, just like we did Charlotte, remember?" asked Brian. "Charlotte, was a girl, okay? it might have worked for her, but not this dude, he's too smart for that, even if we tape it and make it go viral, he'll make sure we're caught too, didn't you hear the way he spoke?" asked Matthew.

"I did, but don't you think he wouldn't get us caught for killing him?" asked Josh. "He won't, i***t is already dead." said Matthew.

"Matthew, I don't feel comfortable about this, maybe you should.." said Brian when suddenly Khayun who descended upon Earth lands onto their car hood in his shapeless form, scaring everyone inside as they turn aside, hitting their vehicle onto the trees.

Khayun vanishes, unintentionally possessing into Brian who jumps out of the window due to the hit since he sits behind.

As the other passengers inside begin to recollect themselves after being a victims of a freak accident. Mathew wakes up with a blurry vision, unable to see anything, but as his vision gets clear, he becomes horrified by Brian's dead body dropped on the hood after hitting onto the tree.

"No! no no no." cried Matthew as he tries to kick open the car door, then notices the car key under the seat and tries to take it, while he does Josh awakes up slowly. "What's... what's going on, what the heck was that?" asked Josh as he screams when he sees the dead body of Brian. "Oh my god, is he dead?" asked Josh.

"Got it." said Matthew after taking the car keys, he presses all buttons as the car becomes unlocked as does the deck of the car which automatically opens.

"Dude what the hell.." said Josh when suddenly Khayun wakes up in Brian's body, scaring Josh and Matthew to death as they scream while escaping from the car and start running into the woods faster than they ever ran before.

Khayun, unable to understand what he just did since he had only heard tales of possessing humans. "This is..(observing his new body) disgusting." said Khayun while Timothy inside slowly begins to wake.

As Khayun is unable to understand or feel an easy unfeeling in his body, he decides to go find anyone that could help him, including the ones who just fled from him which he tries to follow.

Timothy gets out from the car and drops down, as he crawls over while attempting to get up, he sees Brian running towards the woods, then the spirit of Khayun stepping out of the body of Brian and attempting to move out as a shapeless form but unable to as it runs while landing a fart.

"It can't be..." said Tim looking at spirit of Khayun inside Brian's body running at a abnormal speed. As Mathew and Josh run aimlessly, Josh tramples down on a branch, injuring himself to which he screams. Despite seeing this, Matthew still continues onward, sprinting forth. Josh attempts to get up, and starts running with every step making him worse.

Seeing this, Khayun stops behind him and slowly offers to help him by landing his hand upon Josh's shoulder. But Josh gets terrified, pushing him away and attempts to run but fractures his feet. Khayun manages to send a part of his spirit out of the body and makes it touch through Josh's leg, fixing it.

Seeing his feet automatically getting turned, he begs and screams for help which makes Khayun annoyed.

"Shut up!" yells Khayun in Jinni language to which Josh hears jibberish which makes him more terrified as he kicks him off and starts running again, and becomes surprised over his fixed leg, just as he begins to stop, the spirit of Khayun leaves the body of Brian and steps towards him to inquire where is he running off to.

This feels like a complete threatening to Josh as he gets knocked out when he hits on a tree hard. Unable to understand why is everyone running away from him, Khayun's spirit flees off into the direction where he senses Mathew ran off too.

Meanwhile, Mathew reaches a abandoned small house and storms in. Despite being terrified, he steps inside the house which has absolutely no light due to the dark, but as he gets deeply inside, the door behind him shuts, cowering him in complete darkness.

"Hello? anyone here? please help." yells Mathew which is heard by Khayun who flies off to meet him, thinking he would like to talk now. After cowering himself within the darkness for quite some time, he decides to turn back where he sees Khayun looking at him and smilies. Matthew almost pees, screaming louder than he had ever done before as he runs away from Khayun.

"What? why? you didn't like my smiling, I thought humans loved that, I read about it." said Khayun in Jinni language which to Matthew feels like the curses of a ghost upon him.

Matthew directly heads upstairs and accidentally tramples upon a bear trap at the end of the stairs, which being offered to help by Khayun who just witnessed it, Matthew slips over the balcony and his head drops over the table while his body doesn't, causing him to fall unconscious too.

Khayun approaches him, then lands closer, suddenly starts to feel the same uneasy feeling, but this time drawing him close to Matthew which every meter he approaches him.
