LAYLA UNCOMMON AMONG THE EARTHLINGS
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
LAYLA WHOEVER GOES HOME WITH A MAGGOT-INFESTED WOOD
Banjo was right, everything started going haywire as soon as he drove into the police station."Welcome boss, a man smartly dressed in a blue uniform saluted to welcome the chief of police."Hope no problem in my absence?""None, boss. Except for the normal petty thefts and bar fights."Banjo disembarked from the police car, turned around and opened the passenger door, and his chest rise and fall rapidly as Layla stepped down with Shirley curled around her thin neck."Is that not the black-eyed demon?" The officer said with a shocked look."Her name is Layla, and she is not a demon.""I don't care, boss. I ain't staying a second in this office with her."Layla jerked Banjo's trousers, gestured to him to bend closer and whispered into his ear, "he will be dead if he leaves the gate of this station.""What did she say?""Forget it, John. Just go back to your post. ""None of the officers will stay in this station with her. We will rather drop our resignation letter than spend an hour in
LAYLA SAVING THE WORLD
"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
LAYLA KEEP THE DEVIL OUT OF THIS
As soon as the chopper landed and Zuma and Isabella were out of sight, the exhausted pilot jerked his seat backwards and close his eyes. A moment later he stirred awake, looked disoriented and muttered to himself, "what could be hidden inside this book that made It so powerful?"Since there is nobody to answer his question, he close his eyes and gave a wide yarn. "Stop thinking about the book!" He mumbled and then shakes his head in agreement with the cautioning voice. A moment later, he was lost in a disturbing nightmare, and his mouth moved as unintelligible words sounded louder inside the chopper."NO!"He screamed out, opened his eyes and sat upright as his eyes darted around the chopper. "Have been sleeping for an hour. Where the hell are these guys?" He checked the wristwatch on his wrist, shakes his head in anticipation, and sighed when he realized more nightmares awaited him if he dare close his eyes."Why are you tormenting me?" His eyes fell on the novel on the chopper d
LAYLA THE TWO LOVEBIRDS
"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
LAYLA TERRIFIC STAGE
"I have heard many unbelievable things in my life, but the thought of getting killed by reading a book baffles me," one of the officers on duty announced as soon as their August visitors were driven out of their presence.""You won't be surprised if you were on this island some years ago. I grow up here and I can tell you much about the power of that evil girl.""You have my ears, though I don't think you will be able to convince me. As I said earlier, I am a sceptical person when it comes to supernatural things," the man announced."Steve is running his mouth because he is a stranger on this island... Let me tell him a story that will give him goosebumps.""You have my ears," the man named Steve answered as he peered into the eyes of his comrades, and the daring glare on his face made them giggle among themselves."If you are as bold as you claimed, then go and read her book.""Of course, I will. I already removed the one inside that chopper, and it's here with me.""You are crazy!"
LAYLA WILL YOU LIKE TO BE AT PEACE?
"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
LAYLA TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS
Her name was Sheila, and she was his first love. After years of courtship, they decided to get married, and that was when tragedy struck. "Everything is ready. The bride's gown, the cake, the hall and the decoration. I hope you have gotten our wedding rings?" The woman nestling into the chest of her lover asked as she peered into his face. "Of course, honey. They were delivered some hours ago, and it's safe inside my locker." "I pray we don't forget anything," the woman muttered as she raised herself into a seating position, wore her white scandals and stood up with a fixed smile. "Take it easy. I know the wedding is once in a lifetime experience, but that doesn't mean we should go crazy over it... And where are you going?" "To my dad's home. I am not yet your wife until I say I do on the altar tomorrow." "You can't leave me like this, honey." "I will, dear. I need to make sure everything is done to my taste." The man on the bed moaned for a while shrugged and stood up. And a
