Ayira

Episode 3

One day after returning from work, she took off her ring which was around her neck and kept it in her cupboard safely and went for a shower. When she came out, she straightaway went to get her ring but she was not able to find it. She panicked and started looking for it all around her room but was not able to find it.

Suddenly, she saw a letter kept on her side table. She quickly picked it up and started reading it. In the letter it was written that if she wants the ring back she has to come to the abandoned toy factory at midnight.

She was shocked to the core after reading the letter. Having no choice, she decided to go there, but for self defence, she kept a hidden knife in her clothes.

In no time, she reached there. It was all dark and deserted as nobody used to go near the abandoned factory. Suddenly, she saw a man coming towards her. In no time, she recognized the man as her aunt's boyfriend. She saw the man holding her ring in his hand.

At this moment she was burning with anger. She demanded him to return her ring but he kept silent and kept coming closer to her with a creepy smile. She knew his intentions, so when he was close enough she stabbed the man with her knife.

The knife pierced his shoulder blade and the man fell down with a scream and the ring in his hand also fell . She quickly picked the ring up and wore it on her finger and tried to run away. But despite the injury, the man was quick enough to catch her. She started struggling and hitting him in order to get away from the man. But he didn't even budge from his place and threw her on the floor and slapped her hard and started hitting her. She started screaming for help, but it was of no use. She was ready to loose all her hopes but suddenly she remembered her father's words to never give up.

Suddenly something happened. She started feeling sparks in her whole body and the man above her flew atleast five meters away from her. She was so shocked to see this . The man stood up again and this time finally he

broke his silence and told her that because of her father, his wife, who worked as a scientist in her father's laboratory, had died in the explosion, then how could he leave the murderer's daughter who killed his wife , alive.

She was so angry hearing him call her father a murderer that suddenly she again started to feel sparks in her body. The man again started coming closer to her.Suddenly she saw a very bright light channeling through her ring going straight towards the man.

Then suddenly a loud voice of thunder was heard and she saw the man getting struck by the bright light and getting burned to ashes. Soon she realized that the bright light which came from her ring was lightning. She was not able to believe her own eyes as she just saw a man getting burned into ashes in just mere seconds by the lightning that came from her ring.

She then rushed towards her house. The whole way, it was soo dark that it seemed that there was a power outage. She opened her house with shaking hands and went straightway towards her room. She locked her room and sat on the floor terrified and shivering ,thinking about all the events that happened and how she became a murderer ,while wishing everything to be just a nightmare.
