The Jinns Amongst Us

Chapter 48

Soon, Afreen finds herself caught within the same nightmare over and over again, while on the reality, her body is taken over by a malevolent which frightens her family who had tied her to the bed.

"What is wrong with her?" asked Nailah's mother who seems to be frightened. "I don't know, one minute, she was fine, then as soon as she went to bed, I heard screaming and she was flying above the bed." cried Naliah.

"I will rip the skulls off everyone of you, I swear you little bitches!" yelled Afreen in a demonic voice as the mirrored flame in her eyes has turned dark void somehow.

"Call someone from the mosque, tell them of her situation immediately!" yelled Nailah's mother.

Meanwhile, back at Tim's house where Khayun rests, having peacefully arrived through his journey and lying in the bed in his original form, rather than Tim's.

Despite the calls he made to Jessica, no response seems to come to which he glances towards Dr Sayeed's card who informed him of a job awaiting him. "After all, why not?" asked Khayun towards himself when suddenly a call comes towards his phone to which he picks up and notices it's from a unknown number. "Who could it be?" asked Khayun as he attends the call.

"Hello." said Khayun in Tim's voice.

"Hello? is this Timothy Blake?" asked a frightened voice. "Yes, who is this?" asked Khayun. "My name is Ali, I'm Afreen's brother." said the person. "I remember, what's wrong?" asked Khayun. "It's my sister, she's.. I don't know man, it's almost like a ghost got into her, tables are smashing by itself, it's conjuring movie in real life, I'm scared!" cried Ali.

"Calm down, Ali, it's alright, I'm glad you've informed me, now tell me where are you?" asked Khayun. "I.. I don't know man, I've read some Salsa Bakery, then then some hardware, truth is, I don't know the name, I just got here!" cried Ali. "Ali, you need to calm yourself down, breathe, now I want you to send me your location to his number alright, I assume you know how?" asked Khayun.

"Yeah, yeah, I know who, give me a sec, I'll send it to you." said Ali. "Quick, and stay on the line." said Khayun right before the call ends. "Damnit.." said Khayun as he tries to call back again, but finds the phone switched off. "No time to waste, I have to leave." said Khayun as he bashes away through the window as a thick dark cloud and storms through air in a rapid speed till the point where he could see as far wider as he could then races forth rapidly, trying to pinpoint where exactly Ali told they would be.

"Where are you, where are you? come on damnit! where the hell are you?" asked Khayun who spots down a Bakery with a similar name to which he arrives and looks around to find nothing but dark lights and some people working within the bakery.

"What a weird fashion choice." said Khayun observing how they are wearing their work within the hotel but immediately comes to focus as he warps back to the dark cloud and races through the streets nearby, attempting to spot them, within each houses he comes across, he races through them within, checking the entire house as fast as he can while also attempting to escape from the sight of humans.

But unfortunately, in one house where a girl attempts to take selfie within a help of a mirror is suddenly taken shot when Khayun bursts through the room in a attempt to search Afreen to which the girl's photo captures him instead.

Upon seeing the photo as soon as Khayun leaves, the girl frightens, of having seen something supernatural to which she drops the phone.

"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god." cried the girl as she takes the phone back and glances towards the photo and finds it horrifying.

Meanwhile, after hours of searching for Afreen as he races through the house, he finds it exhausting as he just turns back to his original form and takes a quick breath.

"Come on, where the b****y hell are you?" asked Khayun when suddenly the phone dings to which he takes and finds out the location Ali had sent him as soon as he had turned the phone on.

"That's my boy." said Khayun right before he screams over a wave of pain as a voice of Adhan spreads through the mosque to which he rushes away from the place, rushing towards the location it is showing until he eventually reaches her house entrance which is already opened as he emerges in Tim's form.

"Alright I'm here, Ali? where the b****y hell are you?" yelled Khayun to which Ali races through the stairs and finds him. "I'm here, wow, you came fast." said Ali. "I was nearby, where is she?" asked Khayun. "Right this way, come on." said Ali as he runs towards Afreen's room where Khayun sneakily emerges in the form of a cloud to reach faster, but re emerges back in the form of Tim as soon as Ali turns.

"Wow, I didn't even hear you walking?" asked Ali.

"I'm fast, now where is she?" asked Khayun.

"She's at the end of the hall, up ahead, I don't want to be anywhere near there, but there is something you must know." said Ali.

"What?" asked Khayun.

"My sister she uhm... I think she loves you." said Ali. "Ugh.. we don't have time for that mate." said Khayun as he starts running in a human way as he's within the sight of Ali, but as soon as he reaches her room, the wave of pain returns to which he falls down when he witnesses Nailah's mother who is reciting a verse from the Qur'an in a effort to help her.

"Stop.. please.. stop." whispered Khayun, having been unable to even stand due to the power of it. Nailah's mother continues her reciting which not only purifies Afreen, but also harms her since she possesses the abilities of Jinn herself. "I said stop!" yelled Khayun with all his might to which Nailah's mother's stop as the malevolent spirit returns as well.

"Who are you?" asked Nailah's mother.

"A friend, the uhm.... mosque sent me." said Khayun. "The mosque sent you? but I've never seen you before." said Nailah's mother. "I'm only there when you need me, now, I need you to stop reciting the Qur'an for now, and recite it only when I tell you to, understand?" asked Khayun.

"Why do you want me to not recite the Qur'an? don't you see it is the only thing helping her?" asked Nailah's mother. "It does Ma'am, but.. the spirit, it doesn't like it very much." said Khayun. "Read it again! and I'll spill all your daughter's guts out of her mouth!" screams Afreen in a demonic voice.

"Well, you got the point, now I want to stay out, okay? just for a little while." said Khayun as he escorts Naliah's mother out of the room slowly. "Will you help her? please tell me you will." cried Nailah's mother.

"I will, you have my word." said Khayun as he shuts the door join escorting her out as Khayun returns to his own demonic form as well, one has same as he was when imprisoned before, but without horns and in a much less demonic form.

"Now that the humans are out, why don't we end this the old fashioned way?" asked Khayun. "Piss off Khayun, you're not welcome here!" screams Afreen in the demonic voice. "You've heard of me, I take it?" asked Khayun.

"Yes, the piss pot that takes s**t from humans, it's a shame the humans asked you for help, soon, she will die!" screamed Afreen in the demonic voice. "Not if I can help it, you bastard." said Khayun as warps himself into her mind, entering her mindspace which seems to be infected with veins of dark void and web while memories of herself are shattering.

"This is what a human's mind look like when a Jinn hijacks it? huh, shame I've never been here." said Khayun. "That's because this isn't a human, you s**t!" screams the same demonic voice as a Jinn emerges behind him to which Khayun turns.

"What do you mean?" asked Khayun to which the demon laughs manically. "You had no idea, didn't you? you were this close to her, yet for a single second, you've never seem to recognize her true power, a delicious food for beings like us." screamed the demon.

"I knew she was special a long time ago, it was due to a courtesy of a.. friend, that I left that matter out of hand, now you my dear, screaming little b***h! aren't welcome in this plain of town." said Khayun as he engages onwards to fight the demon as he plunges in his first, and rips it out which doesn't do any harm to the demon at all.

"You really think it would be this easier to get rid of me Khayun? tis a shame, I once worshipped to be like you." said the demon as it starts to entangle Khayun using its web which burns Khayun as he screams.

"You b***h! how are heck are you doing this? you're not supposed to have this much power, what the in the blazes are you?" asked Khayun. "I am wraith for now, soon, I shall be a god!" screams the demon.

"A wraith, you say? thanks for the info." said Khayun as he smashes his foot within the mindspace to which both Afreen and the demon groans. "No, you're killing us! you're killing the both of us!" yelled the demon.

"That's the freaking point, I can't kill just you, but she can." said Khayun as he plunges both his hands onto the surface and plunges himself in as the demon as well as Afreen screams.
