The Bloody Mountain

VIII: DIAZO

WARNING; The story was unedited so expect errors.

We decided to walk away from the place we stayed since I told them about the nearby group I heard talking. But I didn't tell them that I couldn't also tell them that I was saved by somebody else. I don't want them to hope that there's someone whom we could ask help since I am aware that the person still belongs to the group. He might be having some dirty thoughts and plans behind what he did.

We were walking silently in the dark. We should not use flashlights for safety. So, we have to endure this situation. We ought not to do things that will only bring us to the killers even how important it is. The night was normally dark but the huge trees made it darker. I couldn't even see if there were stars on the sky for the sky was was covered by the thick leaves. There were a lot of trees covering the area compared to the place we stayed.

Kryx was leading the way. We had to trust him though we were all aware that Kryx also don't know where we are heading to. Tyler was behind me and next to him was Sylph. And I'm being watchful to everything she does and say.

I wanted to confirm my suspicions about her that's why I did not tell the group of what heard from those killers. I have to know it by myself but I'm also being vigilant to some in this group cause maybe there's also enemy in disguise between them. Specially Cava. So far, Sylph has been silent after she explained of why she's missing the time I woke up.

Sylph said she wasn't actually missing that time. She had fallen asleep at the branch of the little tree which Kryx proves. Kryx said he have seen Sylph jumping  off from the tree beside the place he sleep. Sylph knows how to climb a tree? For a go who was been raised in L.A.... that's quite unbelievable. Was she really living in L.A. or was she making stories.. There should be something about this girl or maybe I was just too suspicious about her. Mayhaps, Sylph was an adventurer that was raised in L.A. and can climb a tree. Maybe I was just being too judgemental. Well, rich folks can climb trees. I guess ideas too influenced of the thought that she was the sister of one of the killers. And I became too harsh on her in my thoughts.

Now, I could see that she was devastatingly sad. Like she's bringing all the problem of the universe.

Everyone was walking in silence but then Sylph began to hum a song. Not just a normal song but a lively one. She then walks faster. She was even jumping but in a silent way. She had changed mood that fast. Indeed a bipolar. She's weird. I know there something odd about her. I'm sure of that. I can see that she pretend to be happy sometimes but the pain she had was visible. Maybe she's using it to deal with the pain she felt. Or it could all be her trick. A trick for us to be controlled. She walked really joyfully and speedily that she even overtaken Tyler and me. Making us two at the end of the trail.

"Wazzup! Mr. TG!" she said in a cool small voice enough for us to hear.

"Wanna tell is your name?" She asked him and surely she wouldn't get a response from him and I'm shocked when he actually responded.

"I'm Cholas, but I prefer to be called TG like you always do. ,"  He spoke!! I thought he wouldn't. At least now, we already know everyone's name.

"And the first one,, he was Max," he added in a sad tone. I think he was pertaining to the first you're who got killed. And again, Max head popped on my thoughts. I can still remember how he was hung upside down and how his head was cut by a single shot using a double sided knife. The killer must be skilled enough when it comes to knife. Maybe he was a chef before. He almost killed two by one hit. Thank god, Tyler was vigilant enough. I can use knife since Tyler trained me before but neither of us can do what the killer did. I don't know how to make the knife rotate back. And maybe I forgot how to use knife now,.. it was years ago when I last used it during our practice for self defense.
