The Killer Duo

Chapter 6- Unexpected meeting

For most of the morning, Jeff had been teaching Jane a few different ways into learning how to be a killer. From sneaking up on them without making a sound, to learning how to defend yourself from an incoming attack, he could see some progress into turning Jane from a good girl to a merciless killer.

On one of their breaks from slicing up one of the trees, he could see that something was on her mind as she looked around aimlessly at the forest surrounding both of them.

"Something troubling you girl?" He asked, turning her attention to him.

"What exactly did you do to Tony's corpse?" She questioned softly.

"You really want to know?" With a nod from the girl, Jeff grabbed her wrist and began to walk her over to the exact place where he tossed the corpse. While she was sleeping last night, Jeff took it upon himself to hide the corpse so that either Randy or Keith couldn't find it. He didn't want to risk being found out by them, or risking Jane's life for the matter.

But when he was ready to train the girl before dawn came, he was honestly surprised that Jane could see him in total darkness. A normal human would not have that ability to see in the dark like any other animal that has that. He thought that something was strange about her ever since he saw her in the hospital.

One of the things he noticed after when his family was murdered, he felt unlimited strength when he stabbed some of his knives into the trees, practically splitting the bark in half. No doubt he could kill a person with only one strike. Another was considered impossible yet completely weird, when his eyelids were burned off, he thought that he was going to die within the eleven days without any sleep.

He did learn that if a person were to not sleep for eleven days, that person would die faster than one that would die of starvation in a couple of weeks. So he didn't understand why he wan't dead yet.

Taking his mind off of his thoughts, Jeff slapped himself in the head to get himself back to reality. The hiding place for the corpse wasn't too hard to find since he buried it underneath the colorful leaves on the ground. The season of autumn was beginning to show itself as more leaves began to fall from their perches of the branches.

Shooing the leaves off of the ground, Jeff crouched down, letting go of Jane's wrist, and searched for the corpse. After finally finding the dead body, Jeff heard Jane utter a gasp of shock and horror. Even Jeff was surprised by what he had found.

Instead of finding the dead body of Tony, there was a body of an ancient skeleton with the same robe. Jeff wondered if somebody stole the body while he was busy attending to Jane, but upon seeing the robe and the bandaged nose that still stuck on the skull, he whispered in disbelief. "What is really going on here?"

"He really wasn't joking..." Jane whispered in fear, her legs gave out as she studied the skeletal remains of the young man who tried to abduct her. All of that time, she thought that this was a cruel, sick, joke that her parents' murderers were playing with her. She keeps shaking her head in denial as she breathes heavily. "I am seriously on thin ice right now."

She didn't know why, but for some reason her head turned to her left as she spotted something out of the ordinary in the forest. Her eyes narrowed in suspicion at the strange figure that was a couple of miles away. A middle aged man with a black tuxedo looked like he had his attention locked somewhere in the forest like he was looking for a way out, a pale bald head glowed in the last minutes of dusk before the figure disappeared into the dark and dense woods.

Jane blinked, thinking that she was seeing things as she tried to gasp for breath. Jeff's voice broke her out of her trance as he asked. "What exactly did he tell you, Jane? It is quite obvious that he said something to spook you like this."
