Blood with water

"Blood?......... blood!!...... Blooooooooodddddd!!!!" The screams from Rose sent the panic waves running through the air. aunt Sasha.... she was bleeding through her eyes, the sight of this made Trish throw up, Rose and some others approached aunt Sasha with caution, hoping to find out what was wrong, Sasha had been frozen in a still position, until suddenly, she started floating in the air with blood, no longer dripping but shooting out from her eyes like a fountain, she stared aimlessly at the sky, and as the other family members, Rose included, were moving back to avoid the blood, Rose suddenly felt a sharp burn on her wrist, "what the hell? the eye shaped mark on her wrist had started to glow violently, as she screamed for help, uncle Duncan who was beside her , asked her what was wrong with her,she kept on shouting "water!!.............water!!!! .... My wrist is burning" but Duncan was already as confused as a farmer who watched a cow lay an egg.Rose pointed the Mark, saying that water should be splashed on it, but it turned out that uncle Duncan couldn't see the mark,"help!..help!.. something's wrong with Rose" chris rushed over to where Rose was wailing in pain."she keeps going on about some mark on her wrist, can't see nothing though" uncle Duncan said, Chris looked straight at Rose's wrist immediately, but he couldn't see the mark too, meanwhile,the floating aunt Sasha spoke in a deep coarse voice,much similar to a demonic growl, which was actually something weird to hear , because it was the opposite of the cute and tiny voiced Sasha."welcome back Edenians, your welcome package is here" aunt Sasha growled,....but just then when she spoke, Rose saw something behind aunt Sasha,it seemed to look like a really thin man with a head which looked like that of a bat, but there was no actual face on it,he had a short tail as well.

Rose thought she was hallucinating,but she chleaned her eyes twice, and yet there it stood,at the same moment,the mark on her wrist had stopped burning, and had started just vibrating gently,on the bright side,her wrist didn't get burnt,it was just hot.A quick self push and Rose was off the ground and headed for where her mom was,when suddenly,panda rushed and pulled her brakes in front of Rose."Rose quickly,I might not have time to explain but you have to get a piece of reflective glass right now!" panda said,no way Rose was hallucinating,she already knew that, from all the surprise,all she could say was "panda c-c-can talk?" but she already had an experience with a giant eye,what was speech to her.shoving her curiosity and questions back into her throat, she ran to where a little mirror was kept on the porch of the house and brought it to panda."you see that over there, (raising it's paws to point at where the man-bat demon was) that is a facero , it's a hell bound spirit that only comes out to hunt it's prey for about one hour per day, it's normal for it's prey to be dead on the first day, because it's methods are extremely brutal by making it's prey lose it's organs from the face...but it has one weakness though,it doesn't see it's face because it's face is overshadowed by that of the victims,the only true way for it to see it's face is with a mirror, and as soon as it does,it's own methods will turn against it" panda said to Rose, Rose was confused,but still asked panda to go on"get the mirror right in front of it, that's the only way it would be killed as it's own methods would attack it." Rose took a stare at panda with a duhhhh look, and said "you want me.... me? to get close to that half bat assed thingy over there?.. hnmmmmmm......... sorry but I think I'm gonna pass" panda gave her the death stare, the meanest she had ever seen, and spoke again " The facero doesn't see anyone but it's target, and judging by the mark on your wrist, I guess you encountered the dream glimmer, you know, the giant eye?.. so , that means that you're the only one present here that can see the facero, that's why it has to be you that kills it. Oh, and I might not get another chance to say this, but the only reason you can hear me is because of the dream glimmer's mark, it's activated right now because of the presence of an underling , once it's defeated, it'll get deactivated and I'll be back to being a quiet cat" The sound of the reassuring words made Rose feel at ease, but just then , a question hit her" huh?! ...... did you say activated ... cause it hurt like hell when the man-bat showed up, is that gon happen all the time when one of this shows up" meanwhile, aunt Sasha had been bleeding her eyes out, when she started spinning violently in the air creating a whirlpool of blood." hurry up Rose, aunt Sasha is gonna die, and to answer your question... no ., now get the hell out of here and go show that facero what an ugly thing it is" looking at her aunt standing at the border of life and death, Rose ran as fast as her body could.

immediately she reached where Sasha was, she pulled out the mirror.... every other person there was screaming at Rose for her to get away from there, but none of them could understand what she was doing, a quick wave of the mirror in the face of the facero and it started shrieking, but of course, only Rose could hear it, the facero shrieked all the way as it melted to a pile of blob , as soon as it disappeared, aunt Sasha fell straight to the ground from the air, unfortunately, she fell on her head, and her head splattered all over the ground, screams and wails from all directions engulfed the whole arena,panic spread all across the place,some were trying to call the police, and others, the ambulance, but however,none of those services were needed. Rose stared aimlessly at the dead body right in front of her as every other sound simply became a high pitched ring that gradually faded out till nothing was left but silence in her head,her thoughts came flooding right in "did she die because of me?...... was she already dead before I could even find a way to save her?.. she was smiling just minutes ago, h-how did this h-? if I had come through faster, maybe I could've saved her... but isn't it always this way, we've never had a choice against death, but this time... "Rose looked furious and determined as she stared at her dead aunt" this time with what I got, I'll bring hell to death!!! "

The Edenians all went inside , maria sat by a corner, uncle sebastian had taken Trish, Maggie, Linda and Tom to a room to ensure that his family doesn't lose it, the rest of the family scattered to their different rooms, all in silence, Rose walked past maria and Maria looked up and said "it's just another funeral for us then"she let out a fake half smile from her tears and bloody face, she tried to speak some more, but just broke down and sobbed , Rose took her in a warm embrace "it's okay, we'll be okay, it'll be different this time, I promise"

and with that Rose walked up the stairs headed for her room when her parents rushed to her and hugged her "oh baby I'm so glad you're ok!" Christina said while still sobbing, Chris joined"I was so worried when I couldn't find you, where'd you go? .... you know what? it doesn't matter, you're here now, and that's all I need, come on .... go to your room,I and you mother have to arrange for some cleaners, the compound is a mess, we need to take care of .... just go to your room, okay? Rose looked at her parents and just nodded, adding an almost inaudible 'ok', then she left.

seconds turned to minutes, then hours, and finally the day was almost over, it was 21:47pm , and the grownups within the Edenians had put their kids to sleep, and gathered in the massive reception hall to talk about what happened. while others kids/teens "slept" , Rose remained awake, honestly, it was just what the parents thought they had done, but none of the kids could sleep that night. since maria and Rose shared a room together, it was only natural for maria to be awake as well, and the girls' room was the closest to the reception hall, so they just sat In their room listening for the conversation that would soon take place.
