They fell mercilessly, hitting the rough edges, getting bruises all over. Theresa landed on the ground with her head in an awkward position, before straightening up, and looking at Adrian, who was sprawled on the ground, breathing hard, as he looked up at the sky. Theresa looked around. Apparently, they had fallen in some kind of hole. Due to taking quick hasty breaths, the dust managed to get into her nose, and she sneezed hard. Both Adrian and Theresa then heard the strange buzzing sound, and Theresa covered her mouth, only for another sneeze to come tthrough.Theresa sneezed again, and Adrian scrambled to his fist to cover her mouth. Theresa held his hand there, willing herself not to sneeze. Eventually, she let out a tiny one, and with her eyes watering, she looked around, taking Adrian’s hands off her mouth. Everywhere was dusty. It was probably because they had fallen through it. All the dust seemed to be settling. “What do we do now?” Theresa whispered, giving a little cou

Egg after egg dropped, filling the space, and she couldn't help the feeling of raw panic eating her up. Theresa had never seen such a monster with different traits. It had pincers like scorpions and made loud noises. It buzzed like a bee, and was so solid even though it was made of ants. It was laying eggs which was really unbelievable, but what scared her was the fact that she didn't know what would happen if the eggs happened to hatch. What creature would they see there, and how would they eat us up? Those were the questions which were streaming in her mind.Theresa took in deep breaths, as she and Adrian were pushed together. She couldn't help herself. It felt like she would suddenly scream, and go out. The eggs fell against them, and it was then she knew that she couldn't help herself. “Adrian!” She called out, as her hand closed over his shirt tightly. Her mouth opened wide, and she fought for breath, but couldn't find it. “Theresa, Theresa, breathe!” Adrian voiced out, lookin

The water filled her mouth, ears, and nostrils, as it joined hands with gravity to beat her down. There was no way she could let out a scream. She was busy gurgling water as she fell down the terrific height, hoping that she would not be smashed to death upon a rock. The fall was agony, and all of her fought to find stable ground, but it was impossible. Finally, she crashed into the water, diving headlong into it. More water filled her nostrils, and forced its way into her throat. The water was icy and it felt like she had fallen under frozen winter waters. Theresa went further downwards into the dark abyss of the water, feeling panic come into being, threatening to devour her, and she fought recklessly to swim upwards, but the cold made it hard for her fingers to find movement easily. It forced her to give up, as the surface seemed to get farther, the higher she swam. She fought as hard as she could, but it seemed impossible. Not until she noticed Adrian cutting through the ice-

Theresa screamed, sitting up straight, and was ready to bounce off the bed if it wasn't for Adrian who held her. Blinking hard, she could no longer see any hands or a horrible face. “It was just a dream.” He said, but she shook her head, unwilling to believe it was nothing but a dream. It had been so real.“No, it wasn't just a dream. There was an odd creature staring down at me with a wicked smile.” Theresa said, wanting to leave the bed, but Adrian held her back.“And did the weird creature suddenly disappear?” He asked, and it was then she finally calmed down.Maybe it had truly been a dream. One of those hauntingly real dreams that she hated to have.“You're just scared because you're in a strange place, and a lot of strange things have happened. That's probably it.” Adrian said, and her breathing slowed down.“Damn. It was so real.” She said, still looking around. “Do you want to stay up till morning comes?” He asked, and she nodded immediately. “Yes, please.” Theresa replied,

They were all bent, old hags, walking around, chattering to themselves, as they went about their chores.Adrian and Theresa looked back, and they were beautiful maids again, smiling and laughing.But in the mirror…Then they both stepped back together. “Don't make a noise.” Adrian said to Theresa, and she nodded slowly. Hags were cunning and deceitful creatures. Everyone knew that. Nothing good could come out of them. They were jealous, conniving and dirty creatures always seeking to bring others down. Apparently, they had given themselves glamour.They walked away from the mirror, and tried to find their way to the entrance door, walking casually, and pretending they weren't suspecting anything. Some of the maids greeted them, and they greeted them with smiles. Unfortunately, upon getting to the large double doors that would lead to the outside, they saw that they were barred and chained thoroughly. It was evidence that something was terribly wrong. Adrian took the map from Ther

Theresa let out a cry as the arrow pierced into her arm. Her blood spilled onto the sand in generous amounts, and in fear, Adrian sank to the ground.“Theresa!” Adrian shouted, looking at her bloody fingers that tried to stop her bleeding. Then he looked around, and finally looked at the thick scroll in his hand, before using it to apply pressure on Theresa’s wound. “Ah!” She screamed, as the scroll burned. Then, Adrian tipped the bottle of the invisibility potion into her mouth, and did the same.“I forgot about this. If I had, this wouldn't happen to you.” He said, looking at the hags, who screamed around, shooting the arrows recklessly, hoping to hit them by accident. “Ah, it burns!” She exclaimed, pushing the map away from herself.“Theresa.” Adrian called softly, and they saw that the map was beginning to fill up with descriptions written in her blood. “Sacrifice. It meant blood.” Theresa whispered. They began to see the map of the whole place. Far now dangerous paths lay bef

On getting home, Adrian got access to his phone, and the first person he contacted, was Lucas.“Hey, man. You really got me concerned, with this business trip you went on. I mean, what business trip won’t allow you to make use of your phone, for days?” Lucas complained.“I know I must have gotten you worried, but I’m fine, now. You can come over. I’ll be waiting here.” He said to Lucas, and hung up.After disconnecting the call, he immediately went to the bathroom to have a nice shower, which would scrub off the whole dirt, which had accumulated on his body. The warm water that sprouted out of the shower, gave him this sweet, intensifying feeling which he had missed, for so long.“So good to be back home.” He uttered, with a smile on his face, as he stepped out of the bathroom, with a towel, wrapped around his waist.Just then, a notification from the system, popped up.“YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED YOUR TASK, AND YOUR ACCOUNT HAS THEREBY BEEN CREDITED.”Adrian was glad that he act

Both Sophie and Lucas had left Adrian’s home, after they were done conversing on the important things, so, Adrian headed to Steve Wilson’s home.On getting to the gates, he was allowed in, as he was already known to be someone who their boss always wanted to see, for reasons which they didn’t know about. Adrian chuckled as he walked in, because he was flattered that they allowed him in, without asking any question, and all.He was ushered into the living room, where he sat, and waited for Steve Wilson. While he was still waiting for Steve Wilson, he scanned around the house, with his eyes, without moving a limb. Steve Wilson hadn’t changed the interior designs, yet.“Tch! Did he do that to torture me?” Adrian uttered, under his breath.Although, he wasn’t moved by any of what Steve Wilson would do, to make him feel he had been conquered, and that Steve Wilson would always be bigger than him. “Well, well, well. Look who we have here. I never expected I would be getting a visit from yo

Adrian tried his best to unlock the padlock in the water, and thankfully, he did it and opened up the lid with all his might.“Lucas, now!” He instructed him and Lucas managed to place his right hand on the edge.“Sophie, you've got to get a hang of it. Once the water is absorbed and the bottom is removed, I won't be able to hols on to you.” Lucas uttered.Sophie gasped for breath as she poked her head out and she also managed to hold on to the edge.Suddenly, the bottom open just as Adrian predicted and all the water fell out.Arthur burst into laughter and began to clap his hands.“This is so interesting. Now, I know why father always talk about you, Adrian. You are really smart and have the the true traits of a leader. Having ten of you would build up an empire and run it well.” Arthur laughed out loud.“Will you get us out of here right now? And what do you plan on doing about Sophie. She's hurt, bleeding and in pain!” Adrian yelled, tossing the compliment he had just been given,

The trio fell into what seemed like an endless pit.“Ahhh!” They all continued to scream out loud, hoping they weren't falling to their death.Soon, they fell on something soft. They all couldn't see as it was dark, but they tried to stand.“I think this is foam.” Lucas said as he touched what was beneath them.Adrian and Sophie did the same thing, and they confirmed it was as well.“Where could we be?” Lucas asked, wondering what exactly Arthur was up to.“I have no idea. He totally changed everything.” Adrian responded looking around like he could see in the dark.“Shit.” Sophie cursed under her breath with no strength.Suddenly, the lights went on and they covered their eyes at first because it was sharp and had stung their eyes at first.“What the hell is this maniac planning!” Lucas yelled in frustration as he kept his face away from the light.Adrian felt a little anxious that things weren't going the way he had thought or guessed it could go.This way, he felt he could die for

Adrian stared at the woman as her cryptic words sunk deep into his head.She looked warily at him, then turned around to leave, and he only watched her dumbfoundedly.Suddenly, his phone began to ring out and he slid his hand into his pocket while still staring at the woman; leaving.As he brought his phone out, he had to take his eyes off the woman and focused on his phone. It was Sophie calling him.“Hey Sophie.”“Adrian, where are you? Lucas' home was blown up, and he isn't answering his calls. I don't know if he was in the house when the fire blew up.” Sophie informed him, sobbing hard.Adrian's heart skipped a beat and he became alarmed.“Where are you right now? Have you called the fire fighters?” Adrian questioned as he packed up the wine bottle and glasses, then hurried out of the cemetery.“I'm currently close to his house. And I called you immediately after informing the fire fighters.”“Shit! I'm on my way right now. Stay where you are.” Adrian voiced out over the phone.So

On the other hand was Rose. She was alone in the lab even though there were some others somewhere else.Arthur's lab was a big one, so, there were more people like her working for him. The only thing was that she was more like the head of the scientists as she was most skilled, and he relied on her to get so many things done.Rose wasn't happy about it because Arthur was gradually turning what she loved doing into something she wanted to avoid so much.She was meant to use her skills and knowledge to help people and make life better, but instead, he made her use it to murder people and choose people who would live or die in some situations.But at the same time, she couldn't run away because she was indebted to him. When they were a little younger, she was brought into their house to be a helper; someone that had a bit of a higher rank than the maids.And that was because her father had owed a huge debt and Steve Wilson paid it, but asked for her to be a helper for years which the mon

Lucas also just left the elevator and saw Adrian on the floor, groaning in pain. He quickly rushed to him out of worry.“Hey! Adrian!” He called out to him, and shook him to get a hold of himself.Adrian opened his eyes with cold beads of sweat on his forehead, then he looked at Lucas, and looked at his stomach, but there was no wound or anything.“The man who just left. Did you see any man?” Adrian asked, looking baffled.“No. You were the only one in the hallway. What’s going on?”Adrian checked his stomach again and confirmed that nothing had really happened to him, and if he were to believe Lucas, it meant that something was wrong with his mind.“Did Rose drop a contact?” Adrian asked as Lucas helped him up.“Oh! Yeah, yeah, she did. Is there a problem?” Lucas asked again, completely confused on what exactly was going on with Adrian.“I need to ask her a question. I just saw a man, and you claim there was no man. And… he stabbed me. But I can’t see any trace of any wound on me.”“

“What did you do to him?” Lucas asked, out of curiosity.“I didn’t really do anything. He probably just had the best sex of his life.” Sophie answered, and folded her arms.“You know you’re beginning to confuse me, right?” “Don’t worry. You’re going to get the details son.” Sophie assured him, wanting to get over this as soon as possible.Shortly after Sophie responded, the guard walked out of that room and approached them.“The boss has agreed for you to take the antidote. Follow me.” He urged, and both Sophie and Lucas followed after him.They were led into a stall which was filled with so many drugs, and some were probably antidotes for reactions. Then they got to a particular shelf where there was just one antidote standing it.“This is the antidote for the Blue Rash. Mix it with a little amount of water, and then you can inject it into the affected patient.” The guard gave them the simple instructions.“Alright, thanks so much.” Lucas appreciated the instructions, and he and Sop

Lucas and Sophie shared shocked glances at each other. They weren't expecting that he would actually ask for something like that."Her?""Yes. Just a one-time thing. If you will agree right now, then we would get on with it quickly." Bear uttered as he spread his arms on his couch.Lucas felt annoyed. He wondered why people always had to take advantage of those who needed something from them."Why can't you just do us a favor if you really want to do us a favor? It's unfair that you want to have her and then have a good amount of money with you." Lucas said, expressing his annoyance and how unfair it felt for him."Yeah, I understand. But life is unfair actually. So, if you want the herb , decide fast. I've not got all the time to waste in the world." Bet spoke, without looking merciful.Then Sophie rose to her feet looking determined."If it's me you want to have, then you'll have me. Let's get on with it immediately." Sophie uttered, looking like she had already made her resolve."S

The next day, Adam arrived at Adrian’s home and he was ushered to Adrian’s room.“Gosh. This is the purple rash. Extremely dangerous.”“Oh, my goodness.” Sophie said softly and placed her hand over her mouth.“It’s a reaction of a particular drug which has been long forgotten, so, not many people would have its antidote. Even I do not have the antidote. But I know someone who might have it. They are a group of men who are into drug business and might have the antidote you are looking for. But you must play it carefully with them.” Adam informed them.“Give us an address. We’ll head right there. Andrew, you coming?”“I wish I could, but I’ve got something really important to take care of, and you shouldn’t wait until I’m done because Adrian’s life is on the line.”“Alright.”“I hope you are aware I’m tagging along, and we do not really need to get more people to follow us. We aren’t going for a fight, and gangs always have a feeling you’re coming for a fight when you arrive in numbers.

“Do I know you from somewhere, perhaps?” Adrian asked, still staring at him in confusion.Then the man chuckled and let out a sigh.“It really is a beautiful day. Been waiting for this day, and now, I finally have it.” He uttered.Adrian managed to sit up, but was still feeling a little light-headed, so he leaned on the pillows that were provided for him.“Who are you?” Adrian asked, followed by a grunt.“I am Arthur Wilson, son of Steve Wilson whom you took down.” He introduced himself, now looking serious.Even though Adrian saw the resemblance, he was still shocked that it was truly Steve Wilson’s son. Since he was the one, it meant he was out to take revenge.“I see you’re here to take revenge for your father. But let me tell you one thing. Your revenge is no way justified.” Adrian said, with clenched teeth.Arthur cackled and did a one-time spin, then moved closer to Adrian.“You really think you get to decide what’s justified or not? You must be kidding me. My father might have
