The woman screamed as her icy flames came back to her. She was burned to death, her ashes splitting into air.

"I... I will go and find the others." Kath said.

"But it was dangerous! You can't go anywhere without us!" Ken protested.

"It's fine... don't worry." Kath flashed a smile and ran away before Ken could protest again.

"Ken..." Christian started. Ken looked at him. He thought that he hallucinated about Kristine.

But he didn't know it was her.

"What?" Ken asked. He was sure that he just saw Kristine about a minute ago or so.

"Well, I..." Christian started. He looked down at his feet and sighed.

"Okay first let me say three things." Ken said.  Christian looked up.

"And what is that?"

"First, fuck you." He growled, catching Christian off guard.

"Second, do you know Kristine?" Christian shook his head, obviously lying. Ken knew this.

"And third," he started. But without a warning, he punched Christian on the face. Christian fell on the ground by his back.

"Alright, two words." Christian said, rubbing his jaw from the strong impact. "I'm sorry."

"Damn! Why this again?!" Sophia groaned.

"Why?" Alex asked.

"Didn't you noticed? She returned." Sophia said sternly. Alex gave her a quizzed look. 

"You mean-" Alex started but suddenly, Sophia covered her mouth.

"You can't  say her  name. Even one mention, you can't pass the consequence that will be given to you." Sophia said. Alex looked at her and nooded with a hint of fear in her eyes.

Damn?! Why all of this returned again?!  It's been months since this happened! We've  been living a not-so-peaceful life! 

"BRYAN!" Someone yelled. Bryan looked back to see Kath and he let out a sigh of relief.

"Hey, where are the others?" He asked. Kath shrugged and panted for air.

once Kath finally relaxed, she stated "I'm sure that-" but she cut off because of the loud cry or growl coming from the other street. Bryan looked at the distance where the sound came from. Again, another cry was heard. It was a sad, violent cry that it somewhat comes from a demon. But, Kath just shrugged the thought, she looked at Bryan, his eyes are turning into golden yellow, glowing in a raspy look.

"Do you want to go there?" Bryan asked, making Kath snapped out of her thoughts and nodded mindlessly.

Both of them ran towards the street where the cries came from. And both of them are taken a back from the scene.

It was a bloody mess.
