| CHAPTER 3 |

"I need to get her out the picture.
She really fucking up my frame."
___________________________

"Let me go! Help! HELP!" Screams could be heard echoing from a woman yearning for help. Nobody was close for miles.

"Shut up!"

The woman continuously screamed for help. She was being forced against the ground as her "friend" assaulted her.

'W-What's wrong with him?! He was fine a minute ago!' She spoke mentally.

She was finally able to fight the man off and began to run. Sadly, he had caught up to her and accidentally pushed her into the water.

'Good job.'

The voice spoke.

'Don't let her come back up.'

As if hypnotized, he stopped his friend from re-surfacing by pushing his hand down on her head, effectively stopping her from coming up to catch a breath.

She struggled and struggled but after what seemed like eternity she stopped, her body relaxed as it fell deeper and deeper into the lake.

'Thank you,'

"H-Huh..?!" Finally waking up to reality, the man realized what he had done. "ELENA!"

Gripping his head in agony, tears fell from his eyes. He kept repeating, 'what have I done?' along with 'no'.

Unbeknownst to him, a figure was walking up behind him. Dropping a severed arm onto the cold ground, the creature sighed before giving the crying man a hard kick to the back.

He yelled as he was thrown into the water. He tried to swim up but something wrapped itself around his body, slowly pulling him further and further away from the surface.

"Mi-Mi calm down, I'm sure it's around here somewhere." Leo tried offering a comforting smile but was completely brushed off by Gemini. It had been nearly a full twenty minutes and the girl was still searching for her bracelet.

"It's not here, Leo!" Gemini looked as if she was about to have a panic attack.

"Well... retrace your steps! When was the last time you remember for a fact that you had it on?"

Pausing, Gemini tried to go back into her head, going through her thoughts to try and remember when she had it on last. Then it clicked.

"My condo! I took it off when I was brushing my teeth yesterday." She let out a breath of relief.

'That was also when I saw that freaky creature. I still can't tell if it was real or not...' Dumb bitch.

"Perfect, let's go!" Leo and Gemini raced out of the guest room and headed straight for the front door. They slipped on their shoes, Leo grabbed her keys, and Gemini took her phone before the duo left the house.

Before they could get into the car, they were interrupted by a certain red-head and his partner in crime.

"Where are you two off to? Last I heard you weren't allowed to leave." Libra questioned.
