The Hats in Mysteries.

Caught in trap

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Three loud gunshots resounded in the entire building.

BANG1 BANG! BANG!

Again the noises were heard, additional from the previous on louder.

“What is that?!” shouted Lila as she pounced on her feet holding her arm in terror.

“They are so loud and scary” said Vonika.

“Come on!” paced by taking canters.

Joe and three students hurried to the end of the hall where a long stairs was waiting to take them down to the 2nd floor. The four people got to the end of the stairs. Joe turned back to the three making sure all were safe. In truth, the lad was worried for his friends he left upstairs by hearing the nonstop firing from the upper floor Joe had no idea with whom those three were struggling which caused them to fire on range nonstop. Perhaps, that werewolf must have arrived back to them at full intent of killing.

Really, hope that isn’t the case.

He turned to them saying “come on let……….. Ah!” suddenly he felt a sharp object enter his wrist followed by a cold feeling in his breathing which came down a hot liquid floating down his clothes till his pant which resulted his fiber to glue on his structure.

In an instant, his vision went blur and his body felt heavy. He began to catch up his breathing as it was choking in his throat by a severe pain all over his body.

That same sharp object again crushed through his body making him half lifeless. He fell on the wooden handle fighting to stand on his feet as pain was shivering him all over his body till his head.

“Are you alright?” he heard a question sounding as an insult and having the intension of killing.

He looked up and saw Vonika looking straight into his eyes. She was smiling with delight as though she was watching an exciting show in front of her “are you suffering?” she laughed.

“What’s…. wrong… with you?” he stammered contesting “Ah!” he got hung on the handle by covering his left wrist when he looked at his white gloves he got shocked to find it all lacquered with blood. His wrist was stabbed by a sharp object that gave him a bad pain all over his body weakening him from even lifting his eyelids open.

But, then who did this?

Who stabbed him?

Was it among the three students Gorgon, Vonika and Lila?

Why and who did it?

Joe collected his guts and wound up to the three making him shock out of his skin to view all those students leering at him with a long smirk on their faces.

“What…. Is wrong? Huh?!” his eyes shoot at the left side on a palm that was covered in blood “LILA!!” stunned the boy by looking at the decent girl with a bleeding palm.

Here was the truth; it was she who stabbed him. That girl who was the innocent one of all, who was most petrifies of all SHE did it.

Joe caught the handle and stood up filling up in rage questioning “why did you do this?”

“There’s no answer to it” she replied.

“Besides, it’s a play we wish to perform” added Vonika “capturing a gentle man like you was really a piece of cake you know”.

“Eh!’ anger conquered the boy “I knew it was lie”.

“If you knew then why didn’t you act?” questioned the leer girl in cold voice “is it your fault that you dropped you guards, right? You could have done something but, instead you made an easy target of yourself. Gentlemen are the worst people to be carried on. On the other hand” she lifted her bloody hand showing him “we are from the WIC Company. We are called Sacrifices. We kidnap people from public place and sacrifice then for our need”.

“What?!” the boy got paralyzed by knowing their identity.

In short, the girl showed him her bloody palm exploring her ability that she could transform her any part of her organ into weapons. This was a gift given to her as a successful employer of the company “this is what I used on you” she added. Her palm rotated transforming into a long sword.

“WHAT?!! NO WAY!” suffered the boy.

“With this weapon it cleared the distance between me and my target which was you sir” she said with a cold calm voice that created a dreadful aura around her atmosphere.

She seemed innocent and good girl from her creamy skin expression but, the blood that smear her hand, it could be said she was even worse than a hungry vampire.

“But, I…” he tried to argue however, the vision of the long blade in the girl’s hand grew blur in his sight. The hot blood painted over it and his open cut that was bleeding nonstop from his wrist over his finger, its severing agony gave jolt in his head making him feel dizzy by the sudden attack “I…. I mustn’t fall….” He struggles to keep himself awake as his head was continuously dozing.

This annoyed Gorgon as he stamped front thundering “you are too stubborn to listen! The heck are you!” once he pounced in veil of Joe, he thrust him back which slipped the boy’s grip from the handle and Joe fell down the stairs rolling and hitting the edge all the way shivering himself from the top floor till the second floor’s landing. He hit till the end, bumping his head on the ground and laid there like a lifeless body on the floor.

The three students came down till the second layer of stairs and found him lying on the pool of his own blood. His head and the open wound bled all over his body spreading on the wooden floor.

“Is he dead?” asked Lila peeping down at Joe.

“Let me check” climbed down Gorgon, approaching the boy. He scanned over him and noticed the boy’s eyebrows were shivering even while is eyes were closed and blood floating over them.

At the moment, Joe was in deep pain by the sudden fall that caused agony all over his body paralyzing him from even lifting up his little finger. He felt as though all his bones were cracked and his flesh was all stabbed with needles plus his head ached with bumping that was even seen in the blind darkness of his yes. He laid there lifeless breathing like an infant as he fought himself from losing his consciousness. He couldn’t see due to his eyes shut as complete darkness mantle his sight on the bright side his ears were wide opened like bats during the dreadful sight.

“Is he breathing?” he heard Vonika asking from the height.

The replied boy’s voice that seemed to be Gorgon’s “fit to be beheaded…”

“Be…. Beheaded…” shocked the inner voice of the lifeless boy.

At that point, two heel of a girl began to climb down the stairs ordering “good, drag him to the teachers room” which sounded like the cold girl Lila “we need from there……. An axe….”
