"Come on guys, you know you'll enjoy it" that was Leo obviously, he's always like that. "No way, you guys go spend the night in a creepy graveyard that doesn't even have a church, but I'm staying right here" Taurus said, plonking herself down on the sofa and grabbing the popcorn from Virgo. We were going to have a movie night at leos, but I'll should of known better than to think we would actually complete a movie, Leo always changes the plan, normally to do something slightly dangerous things like go down town at midnight. Still, this is one of his more stupid ideas.
"I'm with Taurus, this is a bad idear" Libra said, she's nearly always right when it comes to these things, she's just that bit more sensible than the rest of us! "OK, then" Aries started "all in favour say oui" I say yes, as do Leo, Sagittarius Gemini and Aries, that makes less than half of us....
"Right then come on the majority wins!" Aries said, and even though everyone knows that the majority wanted to stay, no one really questions him..."not a chance!!!" Exclaims Taurus "I am not going on a suicide mission!"
"Suit yourself" Leo says simply, then he walks out on us, and since its his house none of us realy wants to stay without him.
Soon, Leo and Aries are leading us out along a dark lane, Gemini, Aquarius and Sagittarius are a little way behind them, followed by Virgo who is trying her best to comfort Cancer, who is already shaking her head and asking to go back. Pieces and Libra flank the group, I guess they are trying to stop anyone from getting lost, while me and Capricorn trail behind. Separate, but reveling in the company of the other.
It's not long before we arrive at the graveyard, Shadowy trees surround the fenced in area, and a whole maze of graves lies inside. Some are small stones, while others, the majority, are large, with life sized angles and crosses guarding the dead. Leo stops at the entrance and everyone goes quite, he takes a breath to speak. Suddenly "BOO" everyone jumps, Cancer bursts into tears again, (poor girl) Pisces screams, Capricorn is the only one not to flinch "Sagittarius, get back here" he shouts. I look around and relise that Sagittarius is indeed missing, but he soon turns up, laughing his head of, from behind one of the trees. He gets death glares from Virgo and me.
"Come on, it I'll be morning by the time we've looked around!" Leo exclaims everyone grumbles in agreement, before creeping through the gates.
Leo and Aries try to keep the mood light with there usual banter, talking loudly as we make our way through the maze of dead people...
"AHGHHHHH"
Leo steps back from the lead, suddenly quivering like a leaf some how we all know its not a joke this time. Slowly Aries and Libra look round the corner.
"Oh shit" Aries cries out, that's just the mildest of what was he says.
Libra comes back looking pale bit in one piece "Its Pisces" she calls out "she's dead!" murmurs go around. Poor Libra, she was Pisces closest friend, one of her only friends, she was normally so quite that no one noticed when she went missing. "We've got to get out out of here NOW" virgo shouts.
"We should split up" I suggest, unfortunately that is met with a lot of nooooos. So in the end, we run.
We end up splitting up anyway, and suddenly I find myself alone, an echoing breath, then Aquarius is next to me. We don't talk, simple run together. Then Aquarius trip's and screams, I here a muffled thud behind me, but when I turn to look, she's gone, stolen into the night. I panic, running again and nearly tripping over myself. I turn a corner and yell out as I crash into Libra, Gemini and Sagittarius. "Are you OK?" I ask them. Gemini shakes her head
"Virgos gone, she fell behind, and then... Well... She screamed, but we couldn't... We couldn't see Her" I nod mutely, not sure what to do.
"Aquarius too" I add.
"We've got to find a way OUT!" Sagittarius says, then starts running and we follow. Suddenly I stop, Libra sees me and also stops, "what is it Scorpio?"
"Shhh" I command
"Footsteps" "Libra says, I can't see her in the dark but I can hear her voice wavering. " Gemini, get over here" Libra says, squeaking. We huddle together.
WHAM!!!
A shadow lunges at us and smashes into Gemini, a knife glints in the moon light, coming for her chest...
"Noooo" Libra cries, and lunges in front of Gemini
"Arghhh" Gemini screams as Libra is impaled. A grab her arm and run, tears streaming down my face.
I spot 2 shapes moving along the path near us, I dive towards them, shouting, "guys, guys it's us" I realy hope these aren't more murders, but I recognised Arises striding gait. Cancer runs up and hugs Gemini, while Aries nods to me. "Leos dead" he reports, he isn't crying, he doesn't do that. "We've got to get out of here"
"You think I don't know that!" I answer. The four of us continue again, its like the graveyard is actually getting bigger, surely we should be able to see the outer fence over the stones, and yet they just go on and on forever, an endless loop of horror. "Maybe we can hide till dawn" Gemini suggests.
we move towards one of the huge angle statues and huddle next to the cold stone. Everything seems unnaturally quiet. To quite, the quite I have come to associate with the killer... "He's here" I whisper, but apparently I shouldn't of said that because Cancer lets out a gigantic sob, before bawling her eyes out again. She's not normally this tearfully, then again, her best friends are dead.
Aries has a look of grim determination on his face, "no Aries, don't do it" but he doesn't listen. As soon as the killer hears cancer, and comes into view, Aries charges, "for the stars!!" He cries. He lunges at the shadow, but it is to quick and he faceplants the ground. The shadow lowers over him, and I hear a quite gasp before the thing withdraws. I am horrified to see the knife in the moon light again, its almost as if he's letting us see it, showing us our deaths...
The figure lunges at us, it runs past us, arms outspread, and for a second I think he missed us. "Come on, lets get out..." My eyes tear up as I notice that Cancer isn't moving anymore, neither is Sagittarius. Gemini shivers on the the other side of the statue. "Gemini, stand up, don't come this side of the statue." She does as I say, and I think she has figured out what has happened. "Come on" I wisper, and pull her in the opposite direction.
Just then another figure appears in front of us from a side path, but I recognise this one immediately, and run up to him "Capricorn!!!! Your alive!"
"Alright, keep it down, or we won't be for mutch longer"
I nod in agreement, then notice something behind Capricorn, I hardly dare breath, its a miracle. "The Gate!!!" I yell, and we're running. Then, on the path, it appears, my eyes tear up because I know at least one of us will die, but I continue to run up front, I know that the other two are just behind me, keeping close. I can see the glint of the knife in the moonlight, red droplets clearly visible.
Pain.
Pure
Obliviating
Pain.
White
Hot
"Capricorn!" I scream as I feel the blade leave my body only to enter his. Gemini runs past, I hardly notice her. I reach out with the last of my strength and grip my friends arm, but the wound in my stomach is to mutch, I gasp only once more...
