Chapter Five:Maria

James was ready to stop falling.It wasn't going to be the fall that would kill him but the sudden stop at the end.James felt glass brush by his fingers.Something happened on the floor he just fell by.Then his wheelchair started going away from the drop.It turned around and then fell on something mushy.His hands were untied.

"Wow!Who's there?"James said in his deep voice.

He turned around and saw Maria.Well what was Maria.She stood at about 9 feet tall.One arm was a tentacle while the other was a hand with big claws.The tentacle looked like it could break through walls.Her face looked the same but it was purple and her jaw had a metal cap under it.Her feet made dents in the ground.She was completely naked although nothing to get horny about.

"James..."Maria said.Her voice sounded the way it used to."I need you to kill me James."

"I can't.You're like bulletproof."James said back.

She pulled out a gun from some kind of flesh packet in her skin.It was unlike any gun James had ever seen.It was stainless steel and had red liquid flowing inside the bullets.

"Ok,I understand why I should do this."James said.

But she grabbed James and carried him behind a building.She leaped over some fences with James on her back.They landed in Jame's backyard.The lights were off.

"Wow....Ok im sorry this had to happen Maria."

He aimed the gun at her and fired.

BZZZZZT!BZZZZZZT!

Her metal cap emitted a red light which apparently triggered Maria's real purpose.She grabbed the gun and bent it in half.James was frozen in fear.Her tentacle came and hit James across his side.The force was so powerful that he was thrown into his back door.It smashed under the force and James found himself in the kitchen.

"Mari......Mar.....stop...it."James was gasping for air.

She charged through the house and pushed everything out of her way.She stopped and pulled the kitchen sink out of the cabinet.She threw it at James.He ducked and it flew right over him smashing in through the window.James got up and limped through to the door.He opened it but Maria extended her tentacle and pulled him back.He held on to the doorknob until it ripped off.He fell backwards and the doorknob hit Maria in the face.She rubbed her face with the tentacle hand and James ran upstairs.He didn't hear Maria.Then all of a sudden a tentacle ripped through the floor.It wrapped around James foot and started to pull him through the floor.Any second now and his leg would disconnect.

"AHHH!"he screamed as his muscles stretched.He grabbed a vase and smashed it on the floor.He picked up a piece of it and stuck it in the tentacle.It shook and let him go.Maria bent down and then jumped up through the floor.She burst through the ceiling out into the sky.James looked at her.She was falling back down.Right on top of James.

"Oh shit"he whispered.

James pulled opened the window and jumped out.Maria fell through the ceiling,through the second floor,and onto the barbecue propane tank.It burst open and the air pressure hit Maria right in the stomach.She was about to get thrown out of the house so she scratched her nails across the metal and created sparks.James stood up from the fall and turned around to look at his house.Right before it exploded.The wood was thrown into James's face as he was pushed back.He fell on the sidewalk and scraped his skin across the cement.The house was ablaze.James hoped Maria was dead.

"Holy hell what is happening in this town?"James said.

He started running down the sidewalk.The hospital was behind him.He turned around to get a last look at it.All he saw was white.The hospital went into a medical fireball as the whole entire building ignited into flames.James just watched at the awe of fire.

"I bet anyone ten bucks that some guy Carlos saw that explosion or maybe did something to make it happen"James shouted.
