She is is is Feli...(coughs)... cia"
That name Liz knows, she was the owner of the land, she was the first victim of the tree, according to her research.
" I still don't understand, did you see her that night, was she the one that hurt you, what do you remember"
By the look on Elea face, she could see that she didn't not remember much,
" it is OK, Lea you remembered the name, so we can only hope you remember everything OK, so no worry.
After few more minutes Liz left, the school was a bit far from Lea's home but she made it to the hostel though late at night, Liz had never had to walk to the hostel this late before so she was in all manner of word scared, she kept turning around, nights were always cold at Trees high but it felt exceptionally cold, she picked up her pace, soon she was running, as she was running she felt she was being paranoid with everything going on with Elea, nothing was after her, she stopped and started walking, taking calming breaths but it picked up again when she looked up, how was this even possible she tried moving back but she couldn't, what's happening, how did she get here, questions on questions was raging in her mind, the library was on the other side of the campus to get here that means she had passed the hostel and she did not, liz was before the tree but what was before her was no beauty has Elea had explain, no forget the saying that beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, this tree looks dead, its ugly it reeks evil, no leaves were on it, blood flows over the body, something was crawling out from the side, it looks like it was a body of blood, yes I know we all are but this it has no flesh, it looked revolting, it started crawling towards her, she heard a sound from the other side as she turn to look, she saw a woman, she turned back to look at that thing but it was gone, this woman must be Felicia.
"why are you doing this, why did you hurt Lea, what did she do wrong"
"if you are as knowledgeable as you claimed, you would know I did not choose her , the tree did and I am only to fulfill its wishes, am sorry but your friend is gone and so are you"
"How do we stop the tree"
Felicia looked at the girl she was brave to think she would tell her such but entertainment sake
"Burn it"
Liz woke up in her room surprised to be alive, she kept thinking about last night how do you burn something that that's not physical, her phone rang
"Hello mom"
"how are you baby"
"am fine maa"
"are you sure, I had a very bad dream about you, I feel you are in danger, whatever you are doing please let me know I will help, please Liz you are all I have left"
"mom I am fine I don't want to involve you......"
"am already involved, who is Elea please speak"
Liz had expected this, her mom was a very gifted woman, she see things and have very close relationship with nature
"Mom...."
"please tell me"
So Liz told her everything, explaining front when she met Lea to last night
"Mon what do I do, how do I burn something that's not physical"
"Liz I understand where you are coming from but I wish you would stay away from this, whatever you are dealing with is ancient and demonic, I got a very bad feeling about this, sorry to say this but Eleanor is as good as dead, the people who cut the tree did more harm than good because of their actions you can't burn the tree, physical fights physical spirit fights spirit, LEAVE THIS"
With that Mrs Bells cuts the call , Liz took something from that call "physical fights physical spiritual fights spiritual, the tree was no longer available physically but spiritually it was very much alive, so she just needs to find away to burn that tree spiritually, her mom's warning was still on her mind, she was the only child of her mom and the only one her mom had, after the death of her father and brother, she had to thread on this carefully.
She went for her lectures, Wednesday was always a long day so by the end of her lectures the time was 6:30pm, packing her stuff, she headed out of the class to the hostel, immediately she stepped outside, it was unusually dark, but she continue her journey to the hostel , unaware of the presence following her, after walking for some time, she knew someone was following her.
"Felicia please unless you are here to help me, leave me alone"
She was still being followed, angrily she turned
"Felicia I said......."
Oh it was not Felicia , no it wasn't it was that thing "the crawling blood" named Liz, it had a sinister expression on its face, if I can call it that, Liz turned back immediately and started running screening, her heart was beating so fast , blood was pumping and fear ever consuming, Liz was scared she didn't want to die, she wants to help Eleanor, she kept running, the hostel was in sight, coming back to her sentence she notice she was no longer being chased, immediately she entered her room she locked the door as if that would stop what was chasing her, she tried put on the light but it was not coming on, she was still shaking from fear, she tried calming herself down, the keyword tried. She went to take her bath and after that she lay on her bed, closing her eyes waiting for sleep to wrap her up but when she felt herself being wrapped up it was not by sleep, oh no it wasn't it was the crawling blood, she tried to scream but she couldn't, it as if she was drowning, she couldn't breathe, she felt its hands drawing blood from her, she tried using her hands against it but it was like trying to hold blood, it was not possible, it used its other hands to close her face and when it removed it she was in front of the tree, the crawling blood still holding her entered the tree.
