Chapter 7:
(picture above are the crazies)
About ten minutes of walking we made our way out of the forest.
"Alyssa are you sure we should be doing this" Elena whispered.
"Well its too late to go back now" I responded.
We made it to a small village, there was no one here, we heard nothing. It was like a ghost town, as we walked through the street I noticed that all the windows were covered and the place looked very dull.
"Where is everyone?" I asked the boys.
"They usually stay inside, no one really comes out of their house." William said looking over his shoulder.
"Where are we?"
"We are in The Verloren."
My eyes wided as I turned to look at Elena, she had the same expression.
"We arent aloud to be here." I said looking around.
"Why not? Do you know about this place is?" William and Henry stopped walking.
"No can you tell us?" Elena asked.
"We'll tell you but we really need to get inside, it isnt safe." Henry said while opening the gate to a house which I'm guessing is theirs.
"Fück" Elena said nervous. We followed them into the house. Henry motioned for us to sit at the table and William went to into another room.
"What do you like?" Henry asked Elena, she looked away from the window curtains.
"Excuse me?" She raised her eyebrows.
"Food, what kind of food do you like?" He responded.
"Oh um what do you have?"
"Whatever you want." He smirked. What the heck, is he flirting with her? He didnt even ask me what I want, I'm human too, I want food. I continued to watch their behavior.
She smiled,
"Alrighty then, can I have a chicken sandwich?"
"Oh we dont have that." He said with a straight face.
"What haha, I thought you said you had whatever." She laughed which made him laugh too.
"Yea I'm just messing around, what about you Emily what do you want" He said looking towards me. Finally he asked what I wanted, food is nothing to joke about. I looked to see William coming back and sat at the table.
"I'll just have the same as Jackie please."
"Can do." He said walking into the kitchen.
"So are you guys going to tell us what this place is exactly?" Elena said looking at William.
"Oh yes, well do you know what Verloren means?"
"No, what does it mean?"
"It means lost. This is the lost souls area."
Me and Elena looked at each other before responding.
"What do you mean lost souls area? And why are people afraid to come out of their houses?" Elena spoke.
William paused for a moment before answering,
"Even though the eyes are the window to the soul, a lost soul is not always easy to see. Unless you are in the Mortem. All lost souls are sent here. This is where the unfortunate come. People don't leave their houses because of certain creatures that like to feast on the lost souls."
