A sudden black out occurred ,drawing the attention of everybody , it was a
catch-as-catch-can moment that I had to cease , I didn't know where I was going but I knew my instinct would lead me to safety.

I then suddenly bumped into David, he grabbed my arms forcefully and dragged me towards the warehouse.

" You're not escaping this time!" He said

"David I beg of you, I know you're under a spell but please have mercy " I said then I remembered something

The number one thing movies has taught me is that "there's nothing that supersede a True Love's kiss". I hit David in his guts and I moved closer to his lips .

Our eyes connected like the confluence of the Mississippi and Ohio rivers , he released my hands and placed his on my waist , he moved closer to me and slowly placed his gentle lips on mine, I knew it wasn't going to be a kiss of peace.

" I shouldn't have trusted you" Valarie said appearing unaware

"Valarie! It's not what you think" I said

"Then what is it if it isn't betrayal" she said wearing anger on her haggard face, she naïvely ran away from our premise

I couldn't help my self see her run miserably so I had to run after her , she was quite an athlete.

She ran swiftly without a pause or break thinking about what transpired between the both of us , with each words hurting her with her distressed brain and tear filled eyes she didn't notice she was walking for the lanes of trucks

The whole thing was just freaky, like a spectral hand took the cord and wrapped it around her neck. Valarie tumbled sideways due to the gut - wrenching hut by the truck . She was suspended for a second, choking, before I could anyone mobilized to help.

The truck driver appears to be as drunk as a fiddler , he ran away as soon as he noticed he hit someone , I ran and yelled after him howbeit his momentum appeared to be more tantivy than mine

It first , I assumed it was some kind of bizarre nightmare or else a crazy television scene, but NO! It wasn't , it was real.

I fell towards her body and cried as if my brain was being shredded from the inside. Emotional pain flowed out of every of my pore. From my mouth came a cry from so raw that I could even feel the bats and night animals around us were suddenly wet with tears.

I grabbed onto a pole so that my violent shaking would not cause me to fall and from my eyes came a thicker flow of tears than i had ever cried.

It was as if the whole world had vanished for me, now there was only pain enough to break in me, pain enough to change me beyond recognition.

A flash of light shone directly at my face, accompanied by a sweet full voice, pure and clear, uplifted, as some classic melody in sweetest legends of old minstrelsy.

"Who goes there" it said , walking closer and drawing the attention of fear to me , I wanted to run but I was to incapacitated and debilitated to run , I fell to the floor each time I tried to run

"Are you okay" it said again, I tried to raise my head to look at the person but the rain gave it a dim sight for me.

The voice sounded so familiar like I've heard it before but I didn't know where
"Who are you?" I asked

" I'm a journalist , my name is April"she said as she walked closer to me and noticed it was me "Rain!" Overcome by confused emotions, she exclaimed

"April! Please help me" I said looking at Valerie's dead body lying helplessly on the floor "Good lord!" She exclaimed and paused a bit

"What's a dead body doing defenceless on the floor" she said covering her mouth in shock "it's a long story, I'll tell you everything later but now I really need you to help me " I said

"It's pretty late all the cabs would have been in by this time , it's the suburbia of Millwood ,it really rare to see a cab around here, I'll try to get one in the next avenue just stay right here" she said and she ran as fast as she could

The siren blares began to sound from behind me , I was about to be accompanied by unwanted visitors , they flashed a light and walked towards me

"What in the name of..." They said looking at Valerie's body and bringing an handcuff from behind them "Young lady , I may have to take you with us " one of the cops said , I tried to prove my innocence severely but they insisted of taking me away
