THE VIRTUAL WORLD

Twelve

"Oh! So you were here my little kids" the lady said gesturing herself with her wand.

Kate and Jason were caught and they could no more escape this they had to face and no other option was left. Kate was screaming of fear. Jason hugged her by the arm to calm her down. They even didn't blink their eyes because they were in fear that in a moment she could harm them.

The lady slowly walked towards them. She was just three feet away from them. She slowly lifted her bluish green wand and exclaimed "el dorad" and moved the wand forward towards them just as they did in harry potter.

Jason quickly pushed himself and Kate down behind the sofa where they were hiding.
There came out bluish green fluid and it fell on the curtain behind and stick on it. First there was nothing but then there was small burns and soon fire lit up, the curtain was burning.

Jason pulled out Kate and said "We have to run from here or we'll catch fire too"

"I have an idea, you flash the torchlight on her face and we'll run out from here." Kate hurriedly said.

"Okay, then. One, Two, Three." He picked up the torch and quickly focused the light on her face.

"Run" he exclaimed.

They quickly ran out. Kate couldn't think of anything else she quickly ran out of the house. Jason just followed her absent mindedly. They quickly locked the door. They ran far from the house as much as they could really could.

They were now a kilometer away from her house.

"Jason stop, I can't run anymore." Kate huffed and puffed and stopped running and sat on the road. There was no one on the street, it was midnight, not so chilly but cool, there was no sound.

"Let's check if there's a house nearby, I need water, I am thirsty." Jason said sitting in front of Kate.

"We left the houses far behind. And from here I see no houses, nor I can see anything at the back." Kate said thirsty.

"There's noone around, I feel creepy here. What should we do? Where should we go? " Jason asked terrifyingly.

"Wait for sometime. I sense no danger now. Then we'll set off in search of water and shelter." Kate said.

They sat in silence both recollecting what they actually saw.

"Come. Let's go." Kate said standing upright ready to set off again.

They started walking. They walk...walk and walk ......
