Afraid Of The Dark ✔️

13: Possession

How had our father done this to Elsa?

How could he hurt both of us?

Why did he go to the length of killing her?

Different thoughts buzzed through Katya's mind. She couldn't get her head around what she had just been told but she had heard it come straight out of her dead sisters mouth.

"I don't know what to say Elsa. I'm so sorry that this happened to you." She reached out her hand and placed it on Elsa's shoulder. It was freezing cold.

Elsa looked up at Katya. "Are you truly?"

"Of course I am!" Katya shouted.

It made Elsa jump. "I don't think you are. Otherwise you would be the one dead and not me."

Katya didn't understand what Elsa was saying. She felt pained to hear that her sister was killed by their father. The person who was supposed to love and protect them.

Elsa dropped the dolls and stared at Katya. She took a few steps closer until she was only breathing distance away. If Elsa could breathe.

She began to float up until she was eye level with Katya. Her eyes turned into two black pools of goo and her mouth opened wide to reveal a mouth filled with dozens of spiky fangs. She smiled at Katya and suddenly screamed.

The noise was deafening. Katya closed her eyes and covered her ears with her hands. The scream seemed to last for eternity. She didn't dare open her eyes until it stopped.

When Katya thought it would never end it finally stopped. She slowly opened her eyes to see Elsa floating higher in the air above her.

"Daddy used to like to dress me up." Elsa said as she placed the veil back over her head. Her voice turned darker and sinister.

Katya stared up at Elsa in dismay. What was she going to do to? Surely her sister wouldn't hurt her? Her heart felt as if it was going to burst out of her chest.

"You know you should never trust a man. Especially your fiance. Not even your daddy." Elsa grinned.

"Jacob is not trust worthy. He will hurt you just like daddy did. You must stop him." Her voice grew louder as a huge black shadow appeared behind her growing in size. It was massive.

Katya was stunned and couldn't move.

"Please Katya. Do it for me." Elsa shrieked and flew into Katya. Elsa knocked her backwards and Katya flew across the floor. She felt a strange feeling spread over the whole of her body. It felt as if she had been stuck in a sweltering hot sauna for hours. The heat was intense. She gasped for air as she lay on the ground. Her heart pounded at an unnatural speed and she felt light headed as if she might faint.

She lay in a heap on the floor whilst trying to catch her breath. Elsa was nowhere to be seen. Where had she gone? Katya struggled to her feet. When she stood up the room spun round her as if she'd just got off of a teacup ride. She leaned against the wall and opened the curtain to get some air. As she did she realised the sun was starting to rise.

She instantly thought of Jacob. He'd be worried sick. She ran out of the room and into the corridor. There were no dark entities on the walls and Elsa still hadn't appeared.

Katya made her way out of the abandoned house and hurried back to her own home. She checked the time and it was five o'clock in the morning. Whenever she went into the abandoned house it was as if time seemed to skip forward rapidly.

She raced up to bed and found Jacob fast asleep. When she got into bed beside him she realised just how tired she was. She had work in four hours and groaned at how little sleep she would get. Within five minutes she fell asleep fully dressed.

                             ***

The alarm clock rang at eight. Her head was pounding with pain. She got up and took some painkillers and got ready for work. Jacob was in the kitchen when she went downstairs. He looked up at her.

"Thanks for the dinner baby but where the hell were you last night?" He demanded.

"I was at the abandoned house up behind the trees." She said quietly as she made some breakfast.

"Why are you still going up there? What ever you're doing up there is not doing you any good." He grabbed his jacket and shoes.

Katya didn't want to tell him about Elsa. She knew he wouldn't believe her anyway.

"Nothing. Baby I've got some news for you." She went over to him and held his hands. "I'm pregnant."

Jacob didn't show any sign of emotion. "That's great." He continued putting on his shoes.

"Aren't you happy for us? We've been wanting to start a family for ages." She couldn't believe how he was reacting. Didn't he care?!

"Yes I am but I gotta go to work. I won't be back til late again tonight. Got some extra work to catch up on." He kissed her on the cheek and left.

She watched him get into Sara's car. When he got in she saw how happy he looked with her. Katya felt her blood begin to boil.
