Haunted Heist : La Casa Manavi

Chapter 14

Meanwhile, minutes before the party turned into a horrifying bloodbath, as Anthea runs away from the door, Vera attempts to run after her, but gets grabbed by Jordon who slams her off towards the wall after kicking on her knee.

"Not so fast." said Jordon who quickly finds himself in midst of a close combat as Vera counters through his hold and attempts to punch him through several means while Jordon tactically dodges every single one of the attack until one of them eventually lands which gives him a blow that breaks off his corner teeth away which he spits out.

"I never should have let you live." said Vera who climbs onto the wall and lands off with a devastating kick on his face, but as Jordon attempts to counter it, Vera switches it into a grapple, holding the neck of Jordon tight by her leg as she drops down with him and continues strangling him while he gasps as he tries to get himself released.

"Feel that? feel that pain? you know what? I don't have time for this." said Vera as she snaps off the neck of Jordon before he could ever have the chance to speak out.

Huh? for a moment I thought he could have been the main character, but now he's dead, poor guy, anyways, afterwards of that, Vera then slips away Jordon from her hold and exhausts in relief over taking him down, until she actively remembers her actual target to which she gets up and runs after the door outside.

While everyone else fled the scene, leaving a cold corpse to get laid down, not a hint of sound is heard from within, until eventually the dead body itself wakes up from its slumber with plain grey eyes, almost like the dead came back to pay its price, but we'll get to it later.

Right now, we're staring at the aftermath of Vera's m******e on the party, not even one of them survived, every single sons of bitches that sought out to get her, now lie in waste, killed right away while their blood leak all over the surface like mixed up blood with a nasty smell.

No help was coming for Anthea anymore, but even then, some who managed to linger past the attack of Vera are awaiting away under a table for a help that's never about to come, lucky bastards, I might say, until they got caught under Vera's eyes as she turns down, with a shard of glass struck on half her face while she roars at them.

"Urgh!" screamed a little kid as Vera drags him away and starts beating him down til he ultimately dies of getting his flesh ripped by the stomping she'd gave. The girlfriend of his who had also been hidden beneath the table immediately comes out and clenches her arms completely by Vera's feet.

"Please stop, please.. I'm begging you." cried the girl as Vera turns away from her while she turns away from them and mashes through the skull of a body ripped person.

The girlfriend keeps on crying for a while, but just as she spots the door wide open, she takes in the things from her boyfriend's pocket and clothes and makes a run for it until Vera shoots her down just as she makes close to the exit.

"Two down.. one to go." said Vera as looks towards the east just as she hears another noise along with the shot she made.

"Where the hell are you, you're wasting my time, I got places to be too!" yelled Vera with a firm determination on her face while she looks upon the blood written path all over the floor on the aftermath of the party interruption.

"Anthea! sweetie, listen, I won't harm you, okay? I won't, but unless I find you first, which, I can't give you assurance, you're only way of making it out alive is approaching me, so why don't you come out, and we can end this!" shouted Vera, pulling the curtains away towards the side as she walked, only to find a man in his sweater shirt, whom she immediately shoots before he had a chance to talk.

"I know you're closeby, don't make this harder than its supposed to be." said Vera while she walks towards the pile of bodies laid to waste after the m******e she had pulled through.

Meanwhile, as she searches through the kitchen, Anthea is seen hiding under the actual vents of the room which she managed to climb on, but finds it too hesitant to move, as a single step forward would mean drawing a whole lot of noise.

As she cries and weeps whilst staying in there, soon she comes to a conclusion to jump out of the vent back after the coast is clear, so she can make it past the balcony in which she can jump to the next floor below.

"Annie, dear sweet Anthea! lucky bastard winner of Gold with the ghost, wait, you didn't actually win that thing, did you? nah.. you backed away." said Vera as she walks away at a distance while Anthea takes a firm breath, then jumps out of the vent quietly, but as she drops down, her ankle receives a sprain by the fall to which she almost feels like shouting, but due to her firm motive in not making noise, she bites down her tongue, and moves through under the table while recovering from the sprain she got.

"Come out, come out wherever you are, aghh.. I'm kidding tired of this, just.." said Vera when suddenly sirens of police approaching are heard from distance to which she immediately walks forth towards the balcony while repeating the word s**t.

And as she said, s**t goes to Anthea's plan in getting out of here as Vera is seen walking towards the balcony in which Anthea takes a quick turn towards the opposite direction in a attempt to run away.

"The cops are here, why the hell are the cops are here?" whispered Vera as she glances towards below, and before a cop could spot her, she backs away and proceeds towards the exit to head out before they'd arrive.

While Anthea is struggling to walk away through the corridor out once she makes it out the door, she ultimately falls down, but tries her best to crawl while getting up until she reaches to a point where she could stand, only to get grabbed by someone from the other door as she gets close.

Remaining still, she wonders "what sort of trouble I am in now?" but what she didn't expect was the very person that grabbed her by force into a apartment and holding her by arms and mouth from behind, is none other than her guardian angel himself, Jordon. Wait what? isn't he dead?

"Hmf..m...fmfm... hmm.. mh.. m." said Anthea which wasn't as clear as described since her mouth is covered by Jordon's hand whom remains null until he shushes her.

"Shushh... Anthea, quiet.. it's me, it's Jordon." whispered Jordon just a little while before the cops came sparling in to which Anthea remains silent till the moment they arrive.

For a moment, Anthea felt relaxed as the person that called into her was Jordon, but why is he holding her tight? she thought, until the answer came clashing down with Vera shows up out of the door with guns drawn out as the cops arrived.

"Is that a gun?" asked a cop.

"Hold it right there! who the hell do you.." said another cop as his last words until Vera shoots out the two of them without showing a hint of mercy, right on top of their foreheads.

Once she's done, she starts reloading her gun and swipes away in a rush while Anthea and Jordon remain calm in touch until the point where'd she leave and no other noise comes out of here for a while.

"I think, she's gone, do you want me to let go now?" asked Jordon to which Anthea nods, and within a second, he lets her go, and immediately turns away towards the closet as he starts packing stuffs while Anthea breathes in relief.

"Something's wrong, she definitely knew we were there, she knew you were there, and waited till it was the right time to kill you." said Jordon as Anthea turns towards his direction, only to see him pale and dead as a zombie would be, to which she immediately screams in horror.

"Woah! Anthea, calm down, it's me, it's Jordon." said Jordon with grey skin and white eyes which makes him ghost that got himself jumped out of a 90s movie, or perhaps Solomon Grundy who took tremendous weight loss? perhaps he's just dead body.

"What the hell happened to you?" asked Anthea in terror. "You mean this? ugh.. it's nothing okay? I'll explain later, our bases are comprised, we have to.." said Jordon before getting interrupted by Anthea.

"What the hell are you? some kind of zombie? you're not a ghost right?" asked Anthea, a logical question that came right by, even though she didn't actually witness his murder, what the hell?

"I'm not a zombie, I'm not dead either, yet, this skin, it's sort of side effect,. well, it's like, I have time, a reminder till.." said Jordon before getting interrupted by Anthea.

"She killed you, didn't she? your neck, it looks.. twisted off, did you get yourself snapped?" asked Anthea. "Yeah, sort of, Anthea, we need to.." said Jordon right before a explosion takes place within a party house as Vera left a timed bomb to cover up her mess, which causes quiet the collision amongst the house as it starts colliding in.

"We need to go, now!" yelled Jordon who grabbed hold of her hand and rushed away with the large set of bags on his shoulder which he could carry, despite being tiny, if he isn't ghost or zombie, he must be something, no human I know, would be strong enough to carry pounds of weight like that.
