Rowan sat in the corner of the room, her legs tucked close to avoid the salt. That's circle was her last hope, last chance.
'Don't fail me now internet.'
That creature crept closer, sniffing around her. The hell was she supposed to do? She couldn't hide in this forever. The minutes hours dragged by till she heard a car stutter to a stop outside the house, light flooded through the window. The doors slammed and voices where raised. This is what rowan needed, people, angry ones would do.
'Hey...hey!'
The voices stopped
'Hey I need a little help up here.'
"What?'' Was the reply
'I'm trapped in the house something trying to kill me, you need a gun I think!'
There wasn't a reply. Maybe she'd freaked them out. it did sound far fetched. The zombie like creature grumbled at her again as it shuffled about the room and the edge of circle till a noise rose from down stairs and it, maybe a she scurried away to investigate.
POV Rowan
I heard the crash and crept out my circle. I grabbed the copper candle holder and walked out of my room cautious for that thing.
There was a yell from down stairs so I sprinted towards it, those people could be hurt by it and I think they are trying to help me. A man ran out the front door and suddenly I was grabbed by another and shoved towards the door. Looking back I seen the revolting creature claw out after me, I lobbed the candle stick at it but it went straight through.
'Get in the car now!' was screamed in my ear
I am totally fine with that, I want well away from that, I think while clambering into the back seat of a dark car. I take a minute to get my breath back and turn to see the zombie ghost standing at the door way unmoving. I didn't really register that climbing into a stranger's car was a safe thing to have done.
'Hey kid are you all right?'
Slightly dazed I turn to the voice, a guy with quite long hair.
' eh, yeah im good. Yourself?'
'yes thanks, you not terrified?'
' I don't really know yet give me a min. Are you?'
'people tend to be pretty freaked at something like that'
' yeah I understand that it would, but well you aren't?'
The other guy turns round
' You a hunter or something?'
'No I'm a vegetarian.'
They laughed. I stared at them slightly confused.
