Sharon ran inside, not listening to the wight's demands. He stopped in front of the others and said: „Run."
They just wanted to start running, when they turned around to see the door getting teared open.
The wights rushed in, pointing their guns at them. Emma instinctively let flames grow from the palms of her hands, Bronwyn pulled up her sleeves, ready to punch one of them. But there was no way they could attack them, for the wights had guns.
„Back off! And you, girl! Let your fire die out!" one of them yelled and took a few steps forward, still aiming his gun at the children. „We will take you with us now. Don't even try to escape."
Emma and Bronwyn lowered their hands, not wanting anyone to get shot.
The wight started walking and the rest of them made sure nobody of the peculiars stayed inside the house.
But suddenly, the wight that was leading the group outside, fell to the ground. He started sleeping deeply.
It was Mother Dust's dust. Nobody saw where it came from, but instead of looking for Mother Dust, they all started running.
The remaining wights turned away from their sleeping colleague and started to chase the others. One of them grabbed Bronwyn by her arm, but before he could point his gun at her, she kicked him, causing him to fall over. Then she proceeded to run away from the wights.
„Miss Peregrine!!" Emma screamed, while she saw her headmistress being taken away. She wanted to save her, but she got caught too and felt a gun's muzzle on the side of her head.
„Wait no- Emma!" Jacob looked behind him, but couldn't see her anymore. Miss Peregrine and Emma were already gone, together with wights. Suddenly, more of the guards came in, trying to get more of them. There were so many wights, Jacob lost track of his friends. Everything went so fast. He heard Horace scream and Enoch cursing at their kidnappers.
Olive and Claire came running towards him, hugging Jacob's legs. He picked up Claire and told Olive to take off her shoes, and tied a rope around her. Olive took off her lead shoes and began to float, while Jacob grabbed her rope and her shoes, and started running towards the panloopticon.
He quickly looked at the door's inscription and after looking at several doors, he finally found one that led to a loop not far away from here. The time loop was located in a forest, and it was their only option right now. So he opened the door, and walked into the unknown.//
Bronwyn hit a window, breaking it into many pieces. She jumped outside, followed by Enoch and Millard, who took off his clothes, so none of the wights could see him.
„Come down here." Bronwyn said as she hid underneath the broken window, leaning against the wall outside of the house. Enoch joined her, taking deep breaths.
„We can't hide here forever, right?" he whispered and looked up to see Caul, still talking to all the people. They were hiding around a corner, where no one was searching for them yet. „At least I took my bag with me."
„The bag with all your jars inside?" asked a familiar voice.
„Millard?" Bronwyn asked, and looked around confused.
„Yes, I'm right here." he answered, touching her shoulder to prove he was really there.
„Oh, thank the bird..." Bronwyn sighed. „We have to get away from here, though. And then we should try to find the others."
All three slowly wandered off, trying to remain unseen.
Devil's Acre was never really a safe place, but now it was even more dangerous than before.==
(Yay, I've done another chapter. I really hope I can keep updating the story almost everyday, which probably won't work, but I'll try my best)
