Ruchii (the last demon) 6

Chapter 6

12:00amTony woke up and saw the time at 12:00am, he sneaked to the door and was planning to move out, his mother was far asleep so he was able to move out successfully,

Mali woke up at the same time at 12:00am also, he gently sneak out of the house without her parent knowing.

Zona woke up at the same time, he sneak to the door and was about to went out when he realise that the door was close and the key was with her mom.

"Gosh, I ought to keep the key with me" Zona lamented on his mistake, he cannot woke his mom and ask her about the key, she will surely ask"why?", Zona started shivering, thinking of Jude died when he decided to ignore the task "will I also die like that" Zona thought in fear, he quickly started to think of another way out, he thought of digging the ground" But that will take long and besides mom will wake up" Zona said to himself as he was panicking and eager to get out of the house. He thought of going out through the window "I think that is a good idea" he thought

As he was thinking of it, his mother was on the bed watching him and she thought whether Zona is now crazy.

Zona held the window gently, "No, let it be like this" He said to himself as he change his hand direction under the window to pull it away.

"This what I mean when I ask you to move away from Alcohol, Zona" her mother called to him.

Zona felt shocked, he stared at her mom with fear, "mom this is not alcohol" said Zona "I'm going to die!!!" Zona shouted.

His mom was shocked, "so you are into cult Zona?!!" She shouted"it make it compulsory for you to go out at this hour" She said as she pointed to the wall clock "12:00am on dot" she said so shocked that her son is a cultists now

"Why thinking like this mom" Zona asked, "can you even believe if one of my friend told you I'm a cultist" Zona asked

"So what are you looking for outside by this time?" Zona mom asked.

"It a nightmare, mom" Zona started forming some lies for him to get out of the house"I dream that my cat was killed" Said Zona

"That not true" Her mom whispered, she get down on her bed, finding where she put the key so that Zona could check on the cat.

Unfortunately for Zona, the cat meow peacefully at the backyard of the house where it lies.

"Hop, don't worry son your cat is save" said Zona mom "I hope you hear her voice" she went back to the bed.

Zona felt extra disappointed, "this cat is a witch" he thought angrily.

"Go to bed, son"

Zona was very sad, he looked at her mom as was about to cry, her mom stared at him.

"Will her mom be the reason of my death" he thought so bad in him.

"What's wrong" she asked"your cat is save" then the crazy cat meow again.

Zona was thinking if he could explained every thing to her mom, cos' it is dangerous for him to sleep without doing the second task "I'm going to die like Jude", he thought again and remember what Tony showed him at the field, the demonic letter,

" YOU ARE NEXT"

Zona remember that and weep silently,

"What's wrong Zona?" Her mom asked "is it still about the nightmare" she asked.

"Jude is dead" Zona whispered and continue crying, what actually made him cry was different with what he said.

Her mom console him, and put him to bed, but a thought came to his mind "Jude and I ignored the game together and I didn't die?" He thought "Definitely Jude dead was not by the demon"he thought more deeply, Zona mind was now at rest after the thought, he lay his head on his pillow and sleep so far.

Tony, Mali and Racy met at the Field in the cold, silent midnight, they were so frighten as they were looking around and found nobody except themselves.

" Everyone I'm scared, I think I will go back home" said Racy "this cold is too much for me" he fold his hands together and was shivering.

"Remember that you are going to die like Jude that quit the game then" said Tony.

"But I also don't do the first task, why did I die?" Racy asked.

Tony and Mali got enlightened, "Zona also don't play the task and he didn't die"

"I think that's true, Mali. Zona also don't do the first task and he didn't die also" said Tony to Mali.

"Definitely, Jude death is not from the invisible man, or what did u think Tony" Said Racy

"So what are you trying to say, Tony?" Mali asked obviously.

"It hard to go back home and quit this task, but let quit it, Mali" said Tony.

Mali felt shocked, he faced Tony with a sullen face "Tony why are you stopping this task at this level" Mali eyes has turn red and was about to pule "remember this is about life, a friend of ours is in danger, a friend of ours has been captured by an unknown creature, a friend of ours for that matter, please Tony don't quit" Mali plead with tears "she is dying in an unknown place, please guys let do this together for the sake of Jane"

Tony looked at Mali with pity him, "Zona is not here" he said to Racy "if he is save by tomorrow morning, definitely the invisible creature is not responsible for Jude's death"

"Then who killed Jude" Racy asked so bothered, "Remember that the priest is planning to get us killed by day break for the death of Jude" said Racy gloomy.

"Sedion has lied against us to the priest because of the Ruchii chain" Said Tony.

They all felt sad again, Mali was busy thinking of how to save Jane even when he have been captured and killed by the daybreak.

After discussing about Sedion and the priest, they slowly walked in to the dark scary forest.

Mali was very shocked when he saw a very strange green light that flashed in suddenly from the left side of the dark bush.
