One Mystery One Life

Chapter # 55

Annie walked around ordering those people. I don't even know how to respond. This is just straight on weird; it renders me speechless. What is she doing here and was she always like this? I looked at Iris with curiousness. What expression does he hold, not that it bothers me but this is taking a turn; all of the drama. Love and death being its core. The love of Iris for Annie and of Annie's for what she does. It is even possible that Alex is involved and at that point I thank the communal laws grandly.

73. Any affairs are not allowed.

It points that we have to choose, not jump to perform a leap of faith. Many of us of course don't follow this and get away with it but if someone gets caught for fraud. The punishments are far varied into dangerous.   

The heart of treachery is deep and dark, but I can't make the fact tell that who is on the right or the right. I want to know what Alex is doing. Not that it bothers me much, but the fact is I saw her as my 'chosen'. I see her as my lady and I want a girl like her. I want to find out what is happening here but I know it is none of my beef. I just have to go back and ask from Alex. Where did she run to? I will think further after we consult each other.

Iris was not that surprised and there was a weird settlement on his face. I guess he is not that much of a diver, I thought. He smiled and muttered something. I tilted my head and tried to seek his purpose.

"Iris!" I called out to him and he looked at me for a while. What is his thought process I want to know. I wonder what he might be thinking. I can tell for sure that this was Annie right there. It couldn't be Katin. Why do I keep wondering? I keep a hand on his shoulder and poise at him to hide. We can't be seen we have to run away. They can't chase us.

I doubt Iris will follow anything I say to him. He will probably come running to Annie like he did last time. When I was knocked out by that guy, Iris had come running shouting Annie's name. That Idiot should have ran then, but he ran towards him without a plan and ended up losing consciousness himself. What an idiot he is, I wonder if he was born this way.

The three of us leapt behind the tree. I can't afford that to happen. "Iris!" I called out to him again and he looked at m with googly eyes. "I have to find Rebecca." This was the only thing her said. Okay! He might not be an idiot. A satisfactory smile appeared on Chase's face and mine. I took a glance of what was supposed to be our escape and took step that way.

"Perhaps I could go and ask Annie about it. She must have resolved it all with that intelligence of hers'" He said and I was totally bummed out, when Chase looked at him like a wounded puppy. Ouch!

I took hold of Iris's hand before he could do anything stupid. It is certain the situation is lewd but Iris is tenaciously dumb. And I would like to rather mention that I am stuck in middle without any way out.

"We have to go!" I told them. "Sneak out of here before anyone catches us" I told them and Chase seemed to take vague notice, but Iris was still confused. I got up and turned on my heels. I caught Iris hand and tried to pull him away, but he did not budge an inch.

I looked back- I looked back and saw- I looked back and saw Annie. My eyes travelled to Iris- or perhaps his unconscious body. I looked beside him and saw Chase- Chase lying on the ground with his eyes wide open. I looked back up at the girl standing in front of me with a poker face put on. I would really enjoy this if this was a movie, but it is killing me. Mom! My brain screamed. My legs had stopped working but mom, I have to run back for her. I can't miss the last days of her life. What kind of son am I? I should have stayed with her, but leaving my friends here to rot is no option either. I nodded my head and shook the thoughts out of my brain. This is so crazy but my mom is superior than other wills.

Energy shook back into my legs. I have to run back right now. I took a step back and she got ready to pounce. My reflexes worked and I turned on my left so that the tree blocks her and started running. My legs worked in swift motion and I watched everything passing quickly. Fright is the part where everything works as you liked it in depression. She ran behind me as the 'ghost to Claudius' if you get what I am saying.

Her face looks horrific to me like this. I wish I had trained before; I never did good in anything. At least in any physical activity. My legs were leaving my support and the air of asthma was covering my lungs but I wasn't going to give up so easily.

I feel sharp pain on my toes and look down at my broken shoes and bleeding skin. This is not good at all. I did not analyze my foot and was forced by situation to look up but it was too late, I think. I ran into a tree and I felt a bang on my head. How many times am I going to have a concussion. God! I don't know.

I step back... too late. My hair were clutched into her fist and my head went flying back. How many times is this going to happen. I thought as everything started to go all black. Life is great! What an irony?
