Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: Elias Thorne (14)

The parents awoke from their state their eyes red from exhaustion, they stood in a daze for 2 seconds before snapping out of it, the mother let out a piercing a scream.

Then the Father turned to Elias pointing at him in a grave voice saying

"You...you do u know what u have done"

"How—" he began, but the words died as the water around them rippled violently. The walls shuddered, bending inward as though the building itself was breathing.

Elias then heard Agnes screams as he turned to look only to find Agnes kneeling in front of the minor they just saved,

Then he locked sight with minor only to find that her eyes had turned all white, black water hue seemingly tears like waves occupied through bottom part of her eye in both eyes.

Just as Elias found himself more lost in those eyes, the father held his shoulders covered his eyes roughly with his hands as he dragged him back, while the mother rushed to the girl, by the time they reached the other side, the father opened a door, strangely the black water did not seep in, instead stood still as if there was walls there, the father pushed Elias into the room and followed him into room, immediately Elias eyes gained focus again as he snapped out of his daze, then he caught sight of Agnes the black water surrounding her forming a whirlpool around her and the minor, the girls hand pierced Agnes eyes as her screams cut through the room, while the mother was walking through the water with great perseverance in an attempt to reach the daughter, When suddenly the water arose from the ground infront if her, then swallowed her, her figure vanishing in the dark waters.

The Girl turned to the door then smiled innocently but mockingly towards Elias, Elias about to rush forward to save Agnes, but was pushed back again by the father who despite his short appearance and thin frame had more strength than him, then closed the door, the last scene Elias saw was Agnes screams as the black water entered her through her mouth, ears and eyes.

Then everything went dark, Elias turned to the man, wary of him and moved back, the man sat down as he stared at Elias before speaking

"You shouldnt have interfered"

Elias still shocked by earlier events, kept quiet for a moment befire speaking

"What....what was that"

The Man stared at Elias for a moment before spraying

"Am a dead man anyways so it doesn't matter, let me tell u story, Once upon a time in the countryside, a man had just married his family, friends relatives attended the wedding, it was the biggest event that had happened in years in that small town, after the wedding everyone was merry and happy, there was beer, dancing and jokes, the time had come and the man carried his wife into big house to consulate their marriage.

While the man and his wife was inside the house, outside where everyone was making jokes at each other, guys drinking booze, merriment, a strange guest had arrived he was tall extremely tall, from head to toe he covered his body in black clothes the skin the people could see was his white long fingers, there where bone white and his fingers where too long for human standards, maybe it was the booze the people seeing him offerrd him to come and join in their celebrations"
