Bloody Darkness

The End

Katy

Everything was out of control, I had come to spend a holiday not to see people die, not even the guy who I was holding, he looked pale and very weak still unconscious, we needed to get him out of here soon or he would die and I wasn't willing to let that happen.

The boys were close to me and Lilith was on the other side watching, the ways to get out of here were slim, I looked behind Lilith and there was a door, she noticed my look and laughed aloud.

- Do you think you will get out of here? - Lilith smiled.

-LILITH FOR ONCE BEHAVE - Harry yelled with a very annoyed tone.

Lilith didn't respond, still smiling. Harry moved closer to her but when he was a few steps from her, Kraven appeared in front of her trying to hide her and he stepped back quickly.

-Don't let anyone near- Lilith said.

I got up leaving Ness holding Derek, all this was bothering me; Kraven walk to set me in front of him and I pointing him with my finger.

-If Derek dies Lilith.... It will be your fault. Do you want more deaths? - I said without thinking what I was saying.

I turned my back and she laughed again loudly, I ignored her laugh, my mind was scanning all over the place when I spotted a showcase on the wall where I could see a little hole, I approached to Ness and whispered in her ear.

-Ness look that place - I said pointing the showcase.

-Katy the door is behind Lilith, we can leave -Ness said.

-Ness they never let us go out there. -I said when I was interrupted by the voice of Harry.

-Lilith I need you to listen to me, I'm your brother, Jake is here for God's saints we're family. Do you care about that?

-Harry ... You're my brother, but no, I don't really care if Kraven gives you a quick death or a truly devious one, all I want is to be happy with Kraven - Lilith said.

-No ... this is not you Lilith, you only do this for that damn mannequin - Harry said.

Everything would have been better if he had been silent and hadn't insulted Kraven, the mannequin moved incredibly fast, he was nowhere so we were earrings and with one hand I took Ethan's arm to tell him to help me move the showcase, he understood instantly when I pointed to the place.

-No, no Harry, that was very bad - Lilith said with a false tone scolded - you've gave one option to Kraven and I doubt that he choose the quickly way.

While they were talking, Ethan and I concentrate on moving the showcase and move it, when we finished that small opening it was a hollow arched, it was dark but it was better that stay here, somewhere that passage was headed.

Ethan caught the attention of Alice and Drake who came and helped Ness to carry Derek, then Lilith looked at us and understood everything, her face was filled with rage and my whole body could feel the pain that was coming, Kraven appeared right in front of Harry who stepped back and took a bat that was leaning against a wall. Drake took Jake who was still watching the bodies of his parents and ran into the passage with him in his arms, then Ness and Alice entered with Derek.

-Come on Katy, we have to leave - Ethan said.

I looked where Harry was and I regretted doing that a thousand times, the bat positioned and stamped Kraven who quickly turn on his waist, Harry was about to run towards us but when he was close enough I felt like something red and viscous splash on Ethan and me, I couldn't believe what had happened.

Harry was on the floor divided into two, something cut him, I look forward and saw Kraven rolled metal wires on his wrist and he was walking towards us, Ethan pulled me by the arm and we got into the passage, he comes behind me and we started to run very fast, after a few seconds we looked back and there was nothing but we found the boys ahead.

- Where's Harry? - Jake wonder sad.

-Sorry Jake - Ethan said. Jake began to cry in Ness's chest, apparently when they went to the passage she had taken care of him.

We were in a kind of drainage judging by the fact that it wasn't a drop of water it had years without being used, we walked a little further and look at a dim light at the end of that place, we ran and it was an old rusty ladder, it was a sewer. Drake set his brother on the floor and he went up, after a few seconds he come back.

-Boys.... We did it - Drake said. It felt like we all sigh, it was as if overnight we hadn't breathed.

We went up one by one and we went out, there was a street lit by lanterns, the whole street was full of cars waiting to owners who would never leave that eternal party, our phones had been restored to reception and Ethan took his phone and called 911.

While Derek was lying on my legs I was stroking his hair, he had helped and protected me without knowing anything more than my name, I would always be grateful. He look so pale I approach to him and pressed my lips to his softly and a tear slid down my cheek. My thoughts were interrupted by a burning smell, I looked in front of us and all the beautiful mansion was engulfed in flames.

Suddenly that melody that Lilith sang was heard again, she sang it while walking; it was a horrible image that was a devilish girl and the mansion burning behind her, I lost her in the trees and Kraven followed her, something told me that we'll never see them again.

Minutes later the ambulances came, the police also arrived and they interrogate us, we said everything we could, while the firefighters were in charge of putting out the fire, an ambulance took Derek since he was very hurt, they only checked us. I turned my head and saw Alice tenderly kissing Drake so I look the other way and saw Ness, I started to get closer but then I saw that Ethan was there, they were talking but I couldn't hear anything, Ness jump towards him and kissed him, it was a passionate kiss. For a party that ended badly, this was a nice end, a smile formed on my face and I felt calm. Nice vacation I had.
