I looked to my left where The blonde lady made her escape but not before she stumbled over some garbage. Now I have to try and stay alive. I looked to where The faceless man was supposed to be but he was gone that's what I wanted to think Anyway.

without even knowing what's going on, the faceless man was already in full attack mode already swinging lightning-fast punches at me his fist was like a blur I dodged one, two, then three of his punches but in the end, He finally landed a blow which sends me flying I stop when my back slams into The wall I yelp from the pain I look up he was already in front of me the blade in his hand descending towards my face I rolled but not before losing a lock of my hair to the razor-sharp edges of the blade I stumbled over the garbages trying to get to my feet my clothes was now the smell of fish. He then tucked away the blade into his skin which opens like a living pocket. He didn't have a face so that I could read his emotions but something tells me he got me right where he wants me.

The sound of bones shifting could be heard as his back became hunched and from his back came legs, spider legs. fear runs through my body, my skin gave way to cold sweat. I noticed this black goo oozing from his legs it came in contact with The Metal bin and I watch in horror as it was reduced to nothing.

Acid!?

I looked around the surroundings hoping I could get past him but it was pointless That's when I noticed a small figure emerging from the shadows. It was a cat it was blue I recognized him from his name Tag but he must have followed me when I was jogging. The man turned his attention to blue like he just spots a more interesting prey.

"Step away from the girl, you can leave with your life or just maybe ....with your body intact just...maybe" I look to the source of the sound it was coming from blue but his mouth wasn't moving and yet."Oh, Justina I never wanted you to find out this way but it seems like they have already started searching for you" I always talked to blue as a kid playing Tea party he was the first friend I made before madz but now he is talking back to me somehow I hope this was a dream but it wasn't.

And what does He mean who's searching for me ?

Suddenly blue's small body started shaking sparks of electricity danced along  his black fur Then There was a bright flash of light almost blinding me I managed to blink a few times I could make out The shape of a girl she looks The same age as me Then slowly everything came into focus The girl was standing there naked her long hair glowed a deep ocean blue, as also her eyes thick blue veins were visible on both her cheeks now I figured that is blue.....my cat if it wasn't for different features she could pass as a human

"Justina it would be wise if you took cover for what's about to happen"

her voice more of a command than a warning but even though I had so many questions I did as I was told, I hid behind the wall I craned my neck hoping to catch a glimpse of what is about to happen The look in her eyes was frightening she wanted to kill him, she wanted to rip him apart with her bare hands, before I knew it blue was already airborne jumping toward The man her nail-like claws ripping his stomach open he staggered. Like on a beat Blue shifted all the weight in her right Arm, slamming her fist across his face he was flung like a rag doll Ten to twenty meters across The other room. the wall crumbled as a result of a violent impact. Blue hovered over the ground, moving towards the rubble curious about what will happen next I cautiously followed behind there was dust everywhere but somehow I was able to see it was as if my senses were on high I could hear The beating of two hearts one was beating like a drum while the other was beating at a steady paste the steady one belongs to blue I'm sure of, it suddenly six of the spider legs moved towards blue at the same time.

"Look out!" I shouted. Blue dodged but she didn't move that much just a couple inches but that was enough. Blue gripped onto the spider legs ripping it from The man's body he doubled over clearly he is in pain he tried crawling away only to be stopped by blue who stepped into his back.
