Asher POV
"We have to bury this thing right fucking now." Alice urgently said.
The three of us nod and Cindy goes to the back and comes back with shovels she gives Maya, Ziggy, and I shovels but none to Alice.
"Okay let's go." Cindy orders but is stopped by Alice protesting that she should go with us.
Maya, Ziggy, and I leave to give the two friends space.
"Ziggy you shouldn't be mad at Asher instead you should be mad at me not him." Maya said, breaking the silence between the three of us. Ziggy looks at Maya with an emotionless expression, but I could see the pain in her eyes the betrayal as she continued to look at Maya.
"Asher didn't tell me he had powers I figured it out myself and confronted him he finally admitted that I was right and told me he was born with these powers but didn't have good control over them, so he doesn't use them. Once he finished explaining I made him promise me that he would not tell you. because I don't want you to be- "
"ALICE!"
The three of turn were we see Tommy slashing Alice with his axe.
I threw Tommy across the hall, he landed on one of the tables breaking the table in half, his axe falling to the floor beside him.
I kept my focus on Tommy, making him stay down I could hear Cindy sobbing Alice's name.
"If only I healed Alice injured leg, then she wouldn't have to plead to Cindy for her to join us on burying Sarah Fier hand. We could've been in the hanging tree putting an end to this curse."
Alice sobbing is cut off by someone singing.
"What is that noise?" Maya whispers.
I dumbly take my attention off of Tommy and turn to were the sound is coming from and we see Ruby Lane climbing out of the hatch.
"RUN! RUN!" Cindy yells at us.
The four of us run out of the building and towards the hanging tree.
"MAYA!"
I stopped running when I hear Ziggy shout Maya's name.
I turn around to see Ziggy tugging Maya's hand trying to stop her from splitting away from the group.
"Ziggy let go!" Maya demanded, finally managing to successfully free herself from Ziggy's grip.
"You three go to the hanging tree and bury Sarah Fier's hand while I use myself to distract them." Maya tells us.
"Absolutely not!" Ziggy, Cindy, and I protest simultaneously.
"You have too." Maya tells us Ziggy opens her mouth to protest again but is cut off by Maya, "I bled on the bone the killers will be after me meaning they'll prevent us from burying Sarah Fier's hand since I'll be there. The only way for us to succeed in ending the curse is me splitting away from you three while you bury the hand putting an end to the curse." Maya explains Ziggy shakes her head and pulls Maya into a hug.
"I'll go with you."
Maya hugs Ziggy back and pulls away staring at Ziggy with a serious expression.
"Stick with Cindy and Asher help them end this curse once and for all. I promise I'll be fine and once this over will do what we planned on doing. Remember we still need to read Judy Blume and I need to teach you how to play DND." Maya assures Ziggy with a small smile on her face.
Ziggy unexpectedly kisses Maya, shocking not just Maya but as well as Cindy and I. If our lives weren't in danger, I would've smiled and teased Ziggy for finally making a move on Maya even though it was bad timing.
Ziggy pulls away from Maya, "Come back safe." Ziggy says before grabbing Cindy hand and the two run to were the hanging tree is.
Maya face was priceless. I would've laughed but we had important things to deal with.
Maya shook her head and furrowed her eyebrows, "What are you still doing here? Why are you not with Ziggy and Cindy?" maya asked confused and looked behind her luckily no killers were behind us.
"You didn't think I was actually going to leave you-"
"Yes, I was, Asher. I can handle myself trust me I been through worse situations." Maya says before I could ask what she means by worse situations she continues talking, "Your job is to help Ziggy and Cindy bury the hand and keep them safe. I'm going to lead Tommy and Ruby away from you three. Like Cindy said this ends tonight."
I hesitantly nodded, "I will, just come back safe and don't do anything stupid."
Maya nods and runs the other way leading the killers away from us.
"Please be safe."
I take off were Cindy and Ziggy ran too the only thought running in my head was keeping my promise to Maya.
I caught up to Ziggy and Cindy we see sight of the hanging tree comes as we run closer and finally arrive and start digging.
"Ziggy, Asher"
We look up to see Shadysider 1922 killer, Billy Barker carrying his baseball bat repeatedly hitting the floor as he walks towards us.
"Why are they here? Shouldn't the killers be following Maya?" I thought to myself confused as Tommy appeared next carrying his axe that he killed Alice with.
I look at Cindy and Ziggy both looking frighten and that's when I notice the blood stain on Ziggy's shirt.
"Ziggy your shirt." I tell her pointing at the blood stain.
Ziggy spots the stain, "Maya blood must've fallen on my shirt when I hugged her." Ziggy says her voice shaking in fear.
I narrow my eyes at the two killers coming our way, "Keep digging I'll take care of them."
"Asher-"
"Ziggy, I made a promise to Maya that I will keep you and Cindy safe I don't intend on breaking that promise. Now finish digging so we can end this curse before Ruby Lane finds Maya."
