Legend of the Heroes

Chapter 12: A Haunted House

"Someone is here with us?" Luke said.

"Hey player!" I shouted.

Eden covered my mouth with her hand quickly.

"What I'm saying is that we don't want to be found!" She said quietly.

Right after she said that something fell onto the ground and broke. A glass? I thought.

"It came from the kitchen," Zen said running towards the kitchen with his staff, transforming it into a sword.

I start running after him, leaving the others at the end of the hallway. I followed Zen but as I kept running, he seemed to get farther and farther away. I run faster but it looks like he was even more farther.

I slowed down to a stop to figure out what was going on. This tower is extremely big, about the size of 2 football fields in length and width and all, but I don't remember the hallway being this long.

Then something broke making the same sound as last time. Another glass? What's going on? Then everything around me became dark. I look around to figure out where I was.

Then the kitchen appeared to my right. I stand still looking at the kitchen. I didn't see any glasses on the counters or anything. It looked just the way it did when everyone followed me through the hallway.

Then a glass appeared out of nowhere in midair and tilted towards the floor, falling and shattering into pieces.

"What?" I shake my head thinking it was just me seeing things.

"Hello~." I look around quickly to find out who said that.

A girl's voice? I know it's not Eden, nor Jackie.

Then I turn around to see a girl floating in the air. She had a scythe that was twice as long as she was.

"Who are you?" I said backing away from her in case she was going to attack.

"The name is Nisemi. I am the boss of this level," The girl swung her scythe around and slowly lowered to the ground.

"The boss? That can't be good," I mumbled.

"You are on the floor of death. You are in my world of fun," She points her scythe at me.

"Time for you to die!" She smiles.

She seems to enjoy her job as a boss.

I get my sword out and get ready to fight. I back up slowly while watching her. Then I stepped in a puddle of blood, nearly slipping.

"Thank you for visiting this place. But I'm not supposed to let you continue from here," She said leaping towards me.

I move to the right quickly but the girl swung her scythe at me so I jumped over the scythe and kicked the blade.

"You managed to dodge my scythe? Well then, let's weigh things down a bit."

What?

I stop moving for a while to figure out what she meant. Then, i wasnt sure if it was just my imagination, but it felt like gravity got stronger and was pulling me down to the floor.

"With the gravity level rising you won't even be able to walk," She started walking towards me.

She swung her scythe slowly towards my neck.

"It was nice having a visitor here." She swung her scythe back and then towards me.
