When DEAD calls

Chapter 6

JOSEPH XAVIER'S POV

'Oh jesus, she's gone insane. Please control your freaking mind, Agent Carter', I said trying to control my anger.

All of a sudden, her eyes started to grow flashing white, her nerves protruding out of the skin, her skin paled. She is starting to black out.

'Oh my god, Anna. What is happening to you?' Amanda asked worried and filled with fear.

'Yes, it's them...... it's true..... they are coming to get us.... we should-', Anna uttered before she went comatose. Her eyes dimmed to nothing. Her skin returning to it's normal tone. And then over, she went to the state Jeff is being right now.

'Anna , Anna, get up, speak up, what hapened to you? What did you say?', Amanda shook her shoulder and called out to her for any response, but failed. I put my finger under her nose to check whether she is alive, and yes, she was breathing. I could feel the hot air at rythmic beat.

'She is alive, just went to coma, I guess', I said to calm her down.

'What is happening to us, Joseph?', her voice cracking, eyes filled with tears, 'First, it's Jeff. And now Anna. Something is seriously gone wrong. Anna was right. I guess we-'

Suddenly, the car started to creek and twitch. I immediately put on the seat belts for Jeff and Anna, and put a protective hand around Amanda's shoulder, when the car went off the road to the curb and tipped over , tumbling, and stumbling, spinning us inside like we are in some sort of ride in the amusement park. The car crashed to a pole and halted. It was erect and overturned. All our heads banged on the hood of the car. My head burning in pain, blood dripping and rolling in my eyes.

I kicked-opened the door and took my hand off her shoulder, 'Are you alright, Amanda?', I asked with concern.

'Yes, I'm fine', she replied immediately.

'Is everyone okay at back?', I heard Gorblachev asking perturbly.

'Yes, we are fine here', I answered, 'Okay, now, Amanda, just move out of the car slowly and then come back to take them' I said and helped her to get out through the kicked door.

She went out luckily without any damage. I unbuckled the dazed couple and hoisted them up. Amanda lifted them, one by one, from the other side, laid them down on the ground. I was then out of the car, admiring our present shape.

Amanda kneeled besides Jeff and Anna, and checked their breath and pulse, 'Oh thank the Gods, They're alive. Their breathing rate is normal and their pulse rate is steady, too.', she declared.

'Any wounds?', Joseph asked.

'Nope, totally fine', I said but still shrinking my eyes, thinking how did they not get any wounds on such a disaster. I just shook my head, tossing the junk thoughts aside and thanking God they are alive.

'Officers, I need a little help here', Gorblachev called out loudly to us. We hurried to where Gorblachev is, 'Officer Lyeoneed is stuck in', he said.

We bent down to help the officer out of the car and was shocked to see what was on his body. Amanda clasped her mouth immediately in horror, her eyes streaming water out. Gorblachev hands and legs started to shiver, his eyes giving a horrified look. Officer Lyeoneed was stabbed with a big black antiquated shard in his chest. Strong red liquid gushed out of his body. His shirt damped and soggy with blood. His breathing was hard and his skin turned pale. I pulled out the shard slowly and steadily out of his body. Blood dripping from the sharp edge of the shard.

'Who would have stabbed him?', Gorblachev spoke out still trembling with fear.

'Might be a broken piece of the car, pierced into his body when the car tipped over', I managed to spit out, controlling my nerves.

'No, its not a part of the car. Look at that thing. It looks way more expensive and strange than just a part of the car', she said stating the might-be-truth fact. 'And how could this thing gets stabbed exactly in his heart, accidently', she paused and took a breath, her whole body quivering with fear.

'Agent Carter.... stabbed me', Officer Lyeoneed tried to speak his last words with his left out breath, 'She was.... white-eyed... it's in here.... I can feel it... you have to-',and then his life ended. He went still.

Amanda continued, 'Can't you see? Something is wrong from the start. First it was Jeff and Anna who blacked out exactly at the time when they felt the ghost in them, and then the car tumbling, now officer Lyeoneed died in our hands, who happen to say he was stabbed by Anna. But how could that possibly happen when Anna is still dazed', she started to weep out loud, 'I'm telling you, Joseph. There 'is' a ghost somewhere around us, who trapped the spirits of Jeff and Anna. That's why they are unconscious. The ghost is playing us'.

I tried to recollect and think what just Amanda said. I stood up and glanced at my watch. The needle struck 12 and I just sighed patently. I scanned the black horizon, starting to cloud around the sky, hinting rain. 'If the ghost is trying to invite us for a deadly game', I said sharply, 'let's start the game and play along'.
