Forbidden Child
Ch.9
The old lady was about to leave when Josey got up and took hold of her arm stopping her once more.
"What is now my child?" She asked, turning toward her.
"Do you…know who the other child was…?" Josey asked, hope in her eyes.
"No…I only know that the father was a powerful wind master" She replied simply.
"Thank you…" Josey said, letting go in slight disappointment
"What was that about?" Kento questioned.
"Nothing…"
"Are you su-"
"So, what are we going to do now?" Josey said, cutting Sage off.
"I don't know…I guess we just get comfy now." Rowen said, kicking back.
"But what are we gonna do about food? Or water? There isn't even a bathroom down here!" Kento questioned.
"I don't know man, wait till that old lady gets back, she'll let us know." Rowen said calmly.
"As much as I hate to admit this, I agree with Rowen, have no choice but to wait." Cye stated.
"Tai…are you going to be alright?" Ryo asked.
"What? Oh, yea…I'll be just fine." Tai replied, snapping out of her space out. A few hours past with no word from upstairs and the others began to stir and Kento began to get anxious.
"Darn it!! What's taking her so long?!" He yelled.
"Shhh, please keep it down Kento…" Tai said.
"I just can't sit this long…what's going on up there anyway..?" he asked.
"Dunno, I'll check…" Josey said getting up.
"Whoa, wait, she asked us to stay down here." Cye said.
"I'll be quiet I promise.." She said brushing off his comment. Suddenly there was a loud 'Klunk' noise.
"What the-?" Ryo said standing up. Josey opened the door to reveal the old woman from before all bloody and gutted, she let out a gasp and raised her head to see a demon standing at the top of the stairs with her organs in its mouth, grinning at her.
"Oh…my…" Josey trailed off, backing up.
"Whoa! Shut the door now!!" Rowen yelled to her while running forward. All 7 of them ran forward, shutting and locking the door as the demon ran strait into it, leaving a dent, and continued to ram into it trying to get in.
"What are we gonna do?!?! That thing is gonna KILL us!!" Josey yelled frantically.
"Calm down, we'll get out, and that demon won't lay a finger on any of us" Sage said, outing a hand on her shoulder.
"In the very back there is another entrance, follow me" Tai said, leading the way.
"How did you find it?" Ryo asked curiously.
"When we were waiting I went looking around and found it." She said, pointing to the ladder going up into a dark tunnel.
"Well, we'd better get a move on before that demon busts through." Rowen said looking back. Tai lead the way up, followed by Josey, Then Kento, Rowen, Cye, Sage and finally Ryo who wanted to make sure everyone was up. All of a sudden a huge crash was heard when Ryo had just gotten onto the ladder, and his face paled at the sight of the demon searching frantically for them. Tai, being the 1st one up, had popped open the top of the tunnel and appeared out on the street we she heard the others behind her yelling 'go go go!!!"
"Ryo!" Josey yelled stopping for just a moment before being pushed up by Kento.
"We need to keep moving!!" He said. As each of them climbed out of the tunnel, Ryo was just half way, knowing the demon had caught their scent. And he began climbing faster, trying to keep a calm head. That demon was about ready to jump his heel when the others pulled his out quickly and Josey snapped on the lid.
"Gezz Ryo! Give us a heart attack why don't ya!!!" Kento yelled making Ryo laugh.
"Hey, its what I o…"he said. They joked with each other only for a moment before Tai's eyes grew wide at the sight behind them. They each blinked and turned, shocked at the scene of dead bodies lining the streets and only a single other being stood on that road.
"At last…." Tenkuyo said with a grin
