"Why does Alma kill everyone so brutally?"

"Isa, stop asking silly questions!"yelled Anastasia at me.

"I want to know, please. What is the reason? One thing more, why does Alma use weapons to kill people when she could just possess and kill them?"I argued.

"Oh! Okay, so I need to explain it! Alma does that because she feels that if she was killed like that then others should be killed more brutally so that even after their death they remember Alma's name and her anger and ferocious behavior, her cruelness. The next thing is that Alma uses weapons as she feels that her powers are less painful than the weapons and her power added together. So she combines her powers with the weapons and it results in a deadly death."said Ana and she let out a deep sigh.

I was about to speak when Ana interrupted me in between and said,"Before you ask that question, listen well. The answer to your next question is that Alma will continue to do what she is doing till she has not accomplished it, alright?"

I nodded in response. Ana already knew what I wanted to ask her. I wanted to ask when would Alma stop the killings. 

I kept all my thoughts aside and told everyone that the four of us would go in different ways with Ana's swords. She had a lot of them. Only Ryan and I needed the swords as Diana and Ana already had their powers. 

Ana and Ryan said,"Isa, be careful."

"You too."I replied and we all went into different directions.

I went inside the school campus from the hostels. I was passing by the garden and on the bench, I found a boy sitting . I thought of talking to him. I went nearer and said,"Hello!"

No reply. I put my hand on his shoulder and shook him. To my horror, he fell on the ground. I saw slashes of blade on his back. It looked as if someone had stabbed and slashed him again and again. These things were usually done by Alma but there was something strange about these marks and scars. They were different. The cuts were long and wide. Longer and wider than that which Alma gave. They were not the same.

I removed the tear that fell from my eye just by seeing the school turning into bloody hell. I moved on and left the body of that boy to where it was.

As I passed through the garden, I thought I was in a blood shed. Actually, I was truly in a bloody war. Dead bodies of boys and girls were lying here and there like some lifeless things. All the students were killed brutally. They were killed in the best manner, if you see it with the eyes of a cruel slayer. Slayers are usually cold-blooded and kill a person viciously.

The garden was no more a garden but the scene of some supernatural attack. Humans were lying as if they were animals on the ground. Dead bodies were scattered all around the place. I saw a girl with no eyes on a tree. I saw a boy's body in the fountain and the water was filled with blood. The blood of that boy expelled from his stomach. The school gate was just besides the garden and I found a dead girl hanging on it and the sharp rods of the gate were into her stomach.

Alma was more a killer than a spirit.

I then began to walk towards the school building. As soon as I reached the school building, a smell took control of my nose. This smell was so disgusting that I had to cover my nose. The smell of fresh blood rushed through the hallway of the school.

Passing the hallway, I saw a stream of blood flowing. Everything seemed bloody enough so that a demon could dip some souls in the blood and could have a big and delicious feast.

I neglected everything and everyone lying in the hallway and made my way to the staircase. As I was about to climb, I slipped on something. I stood up and realized that the thing on which I slipped was nothing but someone's flesh. I was numb at that moment. I slipped on human flesh! It is not a common thing. I fell on the ground. The blood that was spilled in the hallway surrounded me and my skirt, shoes and socks were soaked in blood.

I gathered up the courage to stand up as I knew if I fell now and here then I would myself be the destroyer of mine and everyone's future and destiny.

I gripped the sword and made my way to the stairs.

As I took the first step on stairs, I had hallucinations. The images of everyone lying dead in th hallway. They were covered in blood having bruises all over their body. Some were still alive but were lying there as if lifeless and blood gushed out their bodies. I heard screams and I saw Alma killing Ryan and Ana in front of my eyes. I took that step back and all the scenes of death faded away. I took that step again and the hallucinations came back. I was puzzled. How would I be able to go upstairs if this continued to happen? I took a deep breath and stepped again but those scenes haunted me and forced me to take the step back.

I stood there, dumbfounded. What would I be able to achieve if I'd be like this?I thought.

I turned back and looked at the hallway.

I closed my eyes for a while and opened them again only to see the silhouette of someone standing at the end of the hallway.

Who?

<><>
