Psychic

Chapter 14

People were screaming all over the place as I walked out of the ward and I was beginning to feel very uncomfortable. I saw a crazed man shooting people as they tried escaping. I knew better than to try going any further. Instead I hid behind a pillar.

"You guys love screaming Huh? Where's my daughter? Where is she?" he grabbed a poor man who was whimpering on the floor knowing running wasn't a favourable option.

But wait his daughter?!  Something wasn't right.
The crazed man looked at the poor man deep into his eyes that it sent a shiver down my spine.
" I'll make this easier for you young man, it's going to be real nice. Where the hell is my daughter?!!!"
That wasn't nice as expected. "I swear I don't know. Please just let me go"

"I can't grant you that wish buddy" with that the man was blasted on the head with a gun.  My face reddened at the sight and I held myself from vomiting. The adults around me started shooting daggers at me with their eyes actually wondering why I was here while the little children were hiding upstairs.
I knew it was quite stupid for me to be here but my curiosity always won over me. I couldn't help myself. My cousin once told me my curiosity will be the end of me. I knew she was mad at me that time coz I searched her drawer when she specifically told me that the drawer was outta bound. I was too curious and crept into her room when she wasn't around and used my hair pin to hack the little drawer then I found numerous letters written from different boys. Eventually I was caught and shouted at but I promised not to say a word about it to anyone which I kept to my promise.

But now looking at the situation I was in made me reminiscence what my cousin had said, it seemed like that was how my life was gonna end. The crazed man kept shooting and my body was screaming to run but I managed to keep still. Another unfortunate woman who coincidentally had the same urge as I did made a run for it was shot straight at her back and she dropped without making a sound.

"You all better stop hiding coz I promise to kill all of you if ya'll don't come out and tell me where my daughter is"
I gulped. That statement wasn't good at all. He began walking around and killing people at his reach. He was getting closer to where I was hiding and I felt the urge to pee. I thought the time for me to die had finally come as I silently started saying my last prayers.

I began seeing his shadow and tears started forming in my eyes.
"Hey you put the damn gun down"
Looked like someone remembered to call the police even I didn't think of that.

The crazed man turned to the officers that had made their way in,  I could bet they were a bunch outside.
"Don't try anything stupid", warned the head officers and the crazed man laughed again.
I peeked a little to see what would happen. Again curiosity won over me. 

"I said put your gun down!"
I didn't realize how dangerous this was till the crazed man decided to play wise I'd rather play foolish and shot one of the main officers.

Well at the end numerous bullets got into his body, he made no sound as he fell to the floor. The whole place was a bloody mess. It seemed he wanted things the hard way.
I knew I was red all over and I knew I couldn't take in what I just saw. I became nauseous and out came everything..
