Apart from the humming sound of the chopper engine, the two passengers were as quiet as a mouse through their flight to Arkansas island. Each was lost in his thoughts and unaware when the chopper descended."I shouldn't have pulled the trigger. I thought he want to attack me, and I shot on impulse," Isabella said as they came down from the eggbeater. "Stop blaming yourself. He is already possessed and will be dying after all.""I can't get it off my chest.""Keep repeating to your subconscious that you did the right thing under such conditions. Believe me, I would have pulled the trigger if he take a step further.""Are you saying this to make me feel better?""Nope. He isn't himself and is unpredictable. All Layla's zombies always remind me of a zombie movie I watched during my teenage days."Isabella giggle at Zuma's speech, looked into the taller man's face, and asked, "where are we heading?""To their police station. Am sure they will have some records of her.""That's the polic

"Why are you scared?" Layla asked from her seat at the back of the car."They have guns and now left me with no choice," Banjo mumbled back, and his left hand immediately picked up his pistol and aimed at the incoming men as he cried out, "get out of my way now."The men were adamant and the first shot ripped his left side mirror, and several shots followed after."Sons of the gun," he shrieked and then fired at the closet man on the knee, swerve the car to hit two men who dashed closer to the moving car, and shot twice to distract the man with a long-range weapon."This weapon of death fascinates me," Layla said in a whisper, stood up from her seat and gawked at the pistol in Banjo's hand."Lay on the seat and stay out of harm's way," Banjo yelled back, swerving to the left to avoid the impact of a gunshot, and shooting his attacker on the outstretched arm. And it was when he was out of their traps that his erratic breathing became normal."Why are earthlings producing dangerous weap

"Oh my gosh!" Isabella announced at the sight of the headless pilot, pushed the officers on her way off and gawked with grief at the remain of the tall and huge man."What happened to him?" Zuma who just races into the scene asked."He climbed the body of the chopper and thrust his neck into the moving blades," one among the grimly looking officers shakes his head and lets out."Why don't you stop him?""Well... It happens in an instant, and he was dead even before we understand what he is up to.""What came over him?" Isabella asked."Maybe he read the book of death. That is the only reasonable explanation for his suicide.""You are right, " Isabella pouted her mouth, shakes her head, and hissed out loud. "Why will he read the book, despite knowing his fate?""I think these deaths are not random as we thought. She seemed to be targeting some section of people.""Maybe. But what is the reason for choosing her victims?""I don't know. But whatever her reason is, I bet we will have a lo

"DID YOU AGREE TO LOSE YOUR SOUL FOR THE KNOWLEDGE THAT WILL SET YOU FREE FROM SEVERAL REINCARNATIONS?" The man seating on the grass cock a smile when he read the first page, shakes his head and mumbles, "what a way to raise the reader's curiosity. Now I am intrigued."He turned to the next page and read out loud."YOU ARE YET TO AGREE!""Hahaha!" Steve burst into uncontrollable giggling and exclaimed, "no wonder they believed this book is cursed. The writer did a marvellous job in increasing the reader's curiosity."Saying this, he turned to the next page, then cursed out loud when the previous message displayed. "Well... Well. Since you want me to say it loud," he paused his speech as the smile on his face became huge. "I agree," he muttered as he turned to the next page, then read out loud. "WELCOME TO YOUR PAST LIFE...!"A man in blue and green scrubs stepped into a large theatre and was welcomed with the smell of drugs, sweat and blood. "Welcome surgeon. We have twenty emerg

From the port until they reached the police headquarters, the whole street was filled with the corpses of Layla's victims. And the two officers gawked with grief-striking faces when they see the numerous deaths awaiting them.Shockingly as it seemed, the safe island had suddenly turned into a death trap, and the corpses were so many that the municipal authority have no more places to put them. "Wake up, honey. Please wake up." A woman nude except for her black underwear, lay over her dead husband as tears flowed down her pretty face."Repent all mortals. This is the end of the world and the end of all mortals. Come to God now before it is too late." A man in a flowing white gown raised the Bible in his hand and cried out with a loud voice, leapt into the front of the passerby and then resumed his preaching. "The Lord is on his way, and he will soon appear like a thief in the middle of the night... Repent, before it is too late.""My son is dead! Somebody help me please." One hysteric
