Hide and Seek Book 1: Book of the Urban Legend

Chapter 21

"Hey! Now where are you going?"

"To the library, why?"

"Are you a bookworm? You always go to the library."

"No."

"Come with me! Let's go to the new ice cream shop nearby!"

"Well I don't mind."

"Then let's go!"

"M-Michael! W-Wait!"

"You're such a slow poke, Kenneth!"

-///////-

"Earth to Ken!" Alex yelled while waving her hand at Ken's face. His eye's widened.

"W-What?" He asked.

"You've been staring at the space. Is there something wrong?" Kath asked.

"Nothing." He said bluntly.

"H-Harsh." The two girls whispered at each other.

Ken stood up and began to walk. He didn't mind the two girls. He just walk. Until he bumped into someone.

"S-Sorry!" They said at the same time.

"Oh!" Ken said.

"Oh!" Sir Michael said.

"Good timing. I was finding you all the time." He said.

"E-Eh?!" Ken gasped.

"Come with me." Michael said. Ken followed. They walked in he hallways, until the uh reach an empty room. They both go in. Michael closed the door.

"So, what do you want to talk to me sir?" Ken asked.

"Kenneth, is that really you?" He asked still facing the door, still holding the knob.

"What do you mean?" He asked confusingly.

"Don't give me some bullshit!" Michael said loudly.

"Is that a teacher suppose to talk to a student?" Ken asked while smirking.

"How? Why are you here? I thought you're... you're..." Michael said.

Ken sighed and walked towards him. He placed his hand on Michaels shoulder. "That I am dead, right?" Ken said. Michael noded.

"Don't tell anyone." He said.

"Yes." Michael noded.

"But, you won't believe me." Ken crossed his arms and closed his eyes.

"Anything you say I will believe you." Michael said.

Ken sighed. He didn't know that someone is walking towards him. A human-diguised creature. I wasn't a zombie. Its a creature named Ghouls.

"Its-!!!" Ken was cut off by the ghoul bite him. "Shit!" He cursed. He was bitten in the lower part of his neck.

"W-What the-!?" Michael looked at him wide-eyed. He leaned on the door. "A-Are you okay?!" He asked scaredly.

Ken stood up weakly. "D-Does it... l-look...like?" He panted heavily.

"S-Sorry. I can't help you." Michael said.

Ken smiled. "I understand." He said. He raised his finger weakly.

"Protect someone, don't let anyone touch this magic, Protect, stop, and freeze. Binding spell, the light of the sun!" Ken chanted. And pointed his finger to Michael. A yellow light surronds him.

"Hey! Why don't you use it?!" Someone asked. He looked around to see Kath, Alex and Ian.

"What are that?" Alex and Ian asked at the same time.

"Those are ghouls." He said.

"Ghouls?" Kath asked.

"The demons who serve the princess and eat the human flesh in order to survive. They disguise sometimes as humans or animals." Ken said.

The three jumped down and land perfectly. But the ghouls came towards them. They tried to fight one but its way too strong. Ian sent flying towards to the wall.

"Where is-!" Ken was cut off by the sharp pain on his neck. He reached to his knees panting heavily.

"Holy crap! What now?!" Kath yelled.

"Hell... if I... know." Ken panted.

"Striked thunders, Cunning Storm!"
