Before The Storm

Part 3 - Secrets, secrets and more secrets 丰

I woke up with a big headache and I was still in the woods…

What really happened? I was so confused and so so scared. I remembered what had happened.

’’I need to get away from here.’’ I said to myself and got up from the ground. Now the only thing I had to do is to get safe to the house, I was so close…

’’Rubi! Rubi!’’ It was Georg.

’Georg!’’ I said and ran to him.

’’Where have you been? We have been looking for you but we couldn’t find you until now!’’ I could hear on his voice that he was worried. I hugged him tight and just let the tears go.

‘Rubi! Look at me!’’ He said and wiped away the tears from my face.

‘What happened? Where did you go?’’

’‘I..I…’’ My heart stopped, my body…everything was just paralyzed, I couldn’t move.

’‘Georg watch out!’’ Georg turned around but it was too late. The knife went right into his heart.

’’No! No Georg!’’ I screamed. This can’t be happening, no, no, no!

Georg turned around slowly to me, fighting and trying to get the words out of his mouth.

‘Rubi…run!’

’’No! No, I won’t leave you!’’

‘’Listen to me!’’ Fucking run as fast as you can!’’ I looked at him, shocked…confused…afraid.

’‘Run!’’

I ran and ran, never looked back. My eyes were burning, I felt noxious. I didn’t know where I was going, I had no destination. I just needed to get away from there, quick.

It was so dark that, in my hurry, I tripped over a branch and fell. I tried to get up but I just couldn’t. I couldn’t move my left ankle. I think that it was broken. I felt the panic grow inside, bigger and bigger. My heart pumping faster and the adrenaline running through my veins. Then I saw him…the light from the moon shined on his knife. It was covered in blood.

It this how my life will end? Murdered in the forest? What about Bill? Gustav? Tom? They are in danger!

The tears fell down from my face and I couldn’t breath.

’‘Help!’’ I screamed as loud as I could, but all for nothing. Nobody could hear me.

’‘Get away from me!’’ I screamed and started throwing small rocks that I found near me.

The man stopped walking and just stood there for a while. I tried to get up again, but I couldn’t, damn it I just couldn’t! The man kept standing there.

’‘Get away’’ I screamed and this time, so much that my throat hurt.

He raised his hand and slowly took of his mask.

’’No, god please don’t…’’ My voice died. It felt like a knife went through my heart.

’‘Hi Rubi’’ he smiled. That sweet once innocent smile, belonged now to a murder.

’‘Bill…’’ I crawled backwards. Away from him. My eyes couldn’t believe what they saw. My heart couldn’t understand what to feel. My mind couldn’t function, it couldn’t get in any kind of information. Bill…a murder?

’‘What’s the matter? It’s just me, the same old Bill.’’

’’No…No! You are a monster’’ I spitted at him.
