Chapter-16
Turning around in a hurried fashion, I dropped my phone which meant there was complete darkness surrounding me.
I screamed in terror and then a hand was placed on my mouth.
"Please let me go", I said in a muffled voice due to the hand on my mouth, and my eyes filled with tears, regretting coming here all by myself in the first place. I wish I had told someone about coming here. No one will come to know what happened to me for a week at least if this psycho killed me here and left me. What if he didn't kill me but took me captive with him?
This was probably the worst decision ever made by anyone, Just like happens in all those cliche horror movies. I did the same mistake that any usual protagonist does, of going alone on a saving the world huhmm, correction, saving Olivia mission, but wait, if I'm the protagonist then I won't die at least, 'yet'. Think of doing something you nut head Lucy, bite, bite.
I gathered my strength and bit the hand that was on my mouth holding it in my hands. The bite was very hard, as hard as I could. And though I was happy that at least now I was free from his hold, as his hold on me had loosened, I had another problem at hand, the absence of light here. I had dropped my phone on the ground earlier and I needed it for light at least at the moment. So I bend down, in need of desperately searching my phone. I was feeling the ground with my hands just waiting for the feel of my smart little box, I mean my phone.
"OUCH, Lucy are you crazy", I heard the stranger say as I tried to find my phone on the ground.
What the hell, how does he know my name? And then it hit me. The voice, it was oddly familiar.
"Who are you?", I looked up to see a flashlight pointing in our direction.
"Lucy?Carter? what the hell are you guys doing here?", I heard a familiar voice not able to see who that was in the dark. I looked in the direction of person who terrorized me a minute ago, only to see the flashlight illuminate a face with a swollen eye.
"Carter, Carter, Oh My God, you scared the shit out of me", I said.
"I didn't mean to", he said in his defense.
"I asked something", Adam sad in a pissed off tone.
"Lets get out of here", I said passing both of them in an attempt to get out of the darkness.Adam and Carter followed me after a minute.
"Here you dropped it inside", Adam said giving me my phone.We reached the benches and sat there for a minute relaxing. I looked at Adam to see him frowning.
"What?", I asked him.
"You said you wouldn't go there alone", he grumbled.
"And you followed me"
"Thank God I did, else you two would have beaten, oh sorry bitten each other to death ", he said and I looked at Carter who now had a swollen eye along with a bitten hand. The poor soul rubbing my bite mark with the other hand.
"I'm sorry for that," I said to Carter pointing at his hand,which had the complete red marks now.
"You don't need to, it's good to see you can protect yourself", he said and earned a glare from Adam.
"You don't encourage her to risk her life like she did today", he said. Carter chuckled.
"Adam you are taking this to far, risk my life seriously ?", I said.
"Hello", the three of us were interrupted from our little 'small' talk by a women who seemed in her mid forties, coming in our direction from the asylum.
I am not sure, if it was confusion, amusement or fear but I felt tension and a mixed emotion in the air, as the three of us looked in her direction.
"You guys", I said gaining their attention,"I didn't know someone lived here", I said.
"Neither did I", said Adam.
Carter nodded in the direction of the women, signalling her being near. She, who now stood tall at the side of the table that the three of us sat in, smiled at us.
"Are you okay? I heard someone scream down there", she said and her voice sounded soothing. But still since she came from the asylum I was doubtful of that soothe in her voice. She pointed in the direction we came from a.k.a the way that lead to the cave.
"You know what's down there?", I asked her.
"Yes, a cave I suppose, my grandmother is buried there", she said.The mere words that came out of her mouth gave me the chills. I looked at Carter and Adam who had a similar reaction to what we just heard.
A grave in the cave, what the hell? Were we standing above a grave a few minutes before?
