Chapter 3

The police attempted to seize Silas but he pushed them away and made for the door. But another guard came out of nowhere and blocked it. His only means of escape cut off Silas did the only thing he could to procure his safety. He ran back into the room and grabbed Kayth around the throat holding him in front of him like a shield. Silas could tell the police had not been expecting this and so he seized the opportunity.

"I will let this man go unharmed, if you move out of my way and let me go. I will leave this city, just get out of my way." The men shifted uneasily, they couldn't allow this prominent man to be hurt but this was a wanted murderer. They all stood unsure, and then the man blocking the door stepped forward and said, "You won't get away with this un spectre, you'll be arrested before you get anywhere." But even saying so he stepped out of the way. Silas slowly, started walking backwards towards the now clear door. Kayth remained in front of him, just in case he thought. Only once he had cleared the building did he release his former master. Silas looked with utmost disgust upon the man, then clubbed him across the head and picked him up. He carried him off into the night, off to hide in a basement somewhere. He wouldn't leave the city; he had unfinished business there.
