Greg Chase started to shake his head as he tried to step out of the jacuzzi totally, but he was restrained by a force heavier than himself. ''What the fuck?'' Greg Chase exclaimed as he held the back of his head in pain.The force had slammed him against the wall so hard that he though he would lose a screw in his head. ''Where do you think you are going? Did you forget the rules? While I am here, you can only get to be at least ten yards close. You can't come to me,'' the man said to Greg.''I wasn't going to meet you. I was looking out for my employee. Why did you make him mute? I need to see him now, he does not deserve this,'' Greg Chase said. ''Oh? Well, I am not done speaking with you, and I could not have left the way for you to pass, would I?'' the man asked. ''Okay what else do you want to say? Say it, I have to meet up woth my subordinate. Why did you make him mute, he does not deserve this. He won't say anything,'' Greg Chase argued.''He will be able to speak again aft
''Greg!'' Laura said with a gentle voice. Greg Chase was speechless. Not Laura, certainly not Laura Ban, he was not expecting her at all. She was the last person on his mind, heck, he thought that she was dead. ''What the hell are you doing here, Laura?'' Greg Chase asked again, looking at Laura from head to toe and weighing her, noticing the obvious change that had happened to her physically. ''I came to see you, Greg. I heard you are a watcher, is it true?'' Laura asked. Greg Chase's eyes shone in disbelief.Where on earth did she get that information?He looked to his left and to his right, and then pulled Laura in when he saw that nobody was around to see them. Laura tripped and nearly fell on top of Greg as she was not expecting such a hard push from him. Then Greg shut the door and looked at Laura again.''Does your husband know that you have left the house?'' Greg asked.Laura shrugged.''He no longer restrains me like before. In fact, he no longer restrains me at all,'' s
Laura slept in Greg Chase's house that day, and she slept soundly. The last time she felt as good as she currently felt was five years ago. More than five years ago to be precise, nearly six. Greg was in his room thinking about the fact that the former love of his life was right under the same roof with him, while Laura was thinking about the same thing. Fortunately, the thing that gave both of them a sleepless night was positive. Tossing and turning was the order of the night. At the wee hours of the morning, at about 5 AM, Laura Ban woke up from the one hour of sleep that she had tried to accord herself. Feeling enthusiastic, she left her room and went in search of Greg Chase's room. Laura had to open every door in the long hallway, in search of Greg Chase's room. She was greatly taken aback when she opened the door of the room that Scissors was in. It was not up to twenty four hours since he was set in a daze and for reasons that Greg Chase could not understand after Laur
It was not until Laura left Greg Chase's house that she realized that she had stayed out too long. She panicked. She would have accepted Greg Chase's offer to drop her off but she could not risk it. At such a time when she had started to be in Mr. Ban's good book, she wanted to spoil it already.Laura scolded herself. How could she have been carried away the way she was?Well, how could she not have been carried away the way she was?As she went home, her mind flashed back to the man she saw in the room when she was looking for Greg. Greg had said he was sleeping.Fully dressed? Staring at the ceiling? How? How possible was it? Laura thought about these so hard and deeply to the extent that she didn't know she had reached Mr. Ban's house. It was still pretty early, and everywhere was quiet apart from the incessant sound of crickets yelling. Laura paused in front of the gate and took a look around, making sure that nobody was watching her sneak in. She slid into the compound,
Scissors allegiance became so strong for Greg Chase. Very intense. If anyone asked Scissors why he had become so intense, be would start to argue. It was pretty intense. So everyone let him be. Luckily, Greg Chase knew the reason Scissors was like that and he couldn't wait to see "the man."He didn't ask for this, not at all... Scissors was going to give him out if he was not careful. "Let's hit them now, boss. This is the best time. I'm in shape to do it," Scissors told Greg Chase. He really couldn't wait at all. "They are expecting me. Now that they know what I am, they will wait for me to make a wreckloose of myself," Greg Chase suggested. Scissors frowned. He didn't understand what Greg Chase meant by "what I am.""What do you mean, Mr. Chase?" Scissors asked. Greg Chase chuckled. "Make up your mind on what you want to call me," Greg Chase said to Scissors. Scissors looked list. "Is it boss or Mr. Chase?" Greg Chase added. Scissors realized the problem and smiled.
Because Barter only caught a glimpse of the watcher, his fate was different from becoming a walker just like Scissors had. Besides, the essence of a watcher could not mix with a rival so Barter had become a sworn enemy of the watcher, and part of this "curse" was that an inscription would appear on his face as a marking. That was a hideous place for Barter to be in. If anyone recognized the markings on his face, he would be by the markings on his face, Barter could become an outcast, as everyone considered the watcher a sacred being. "A sworn enemy..." Barter, Shadow, Mr. Ban, and Charles Ban said in unison at the understanding of what was on Barter's face. "Right, I'm going to get killed for free," Barter said with a trembling voice. His eyes glared with horror as he thought of the reality that was going to befall him. "Wear a mask, you can't afford to be seen like this, your death would be horrible," Mr. Ban told him. "Yes, the death of a sworn enemy is usually obscure
Preparations were ongoing to attack Mr. Ban's house. With the help of Don Black, and whatever other assurance they had on found as a result of Greg Chase being a watcher, they were bent on having a good outing. ''Is it true?'' Bane asked Greg Chase. He arrived at the meeting they would have before they attacked Mr. Ban later than everyone else, and only got to know via rumors in the city that there was a watcher in the town.He didn't even know that this so-called watcher being spoken of was Greg Chase until he shared the news with Don Black.''Didn't you hear who the watcher is? Did you only hear that there is a watcher without knowing who it is?'' Don Black had asked Bane.''Who is it?'' Bane asked, knowing that for the fact that Don Black was interested in him knowing who the watcher was, it had to be someone that they all knew.''It's Chase,'' Don Black had reported.Bane's eyes widened in shock at first, but then he was quick to retrace his steps and emotions.''Wait, why am I
Both camps of Mr. Ban and Greg Chase were planning their next moves at each other, and this one was going to be bloody. Nobody needed to spell out, how bloody this attack was going to be for both parties, they all just knew that this was a point of no return.A lot would be determined by whatever the outcome of the next war was going to be. ''Since everyone is moving mad and is already near death, I might as well make an appearance in public,'' Mr. Ban announced at home. Everyone had started to move about freely, including Charles Ban, even though he nearly always had to put on a hoodie regardless of the weather, and he was on and off being bald as well as dying his hair different colors. The point was that everyone knew that none of them were safe anymore. It was as if they were living their last days alive, and resorted to doing the most to make their ''last days'' count. So, Mr. Ban thought to join in on the action at once. After all, his days were likely numbered, just like e
