Chapter 5 - City of dead

Sarah took her key and started heading towards the house taking buttercup along with her furiously to open the box. She again went to the room. She screamed, "Unbelievable!". The door which she already opened last night is locked again. She took the hammer and fiercely tapped on it.

The lock didn't opened at all. Suddenly she heard Lan's voice. Sarah merely frightened. She slowly turned. It was Lan. "When you came here?", Sarah asked in her low voice. " This is my house, I'm here from my birth!", He said.

Sarah can't understand him and told him that she wants to get in that room. Lan restricted her saying, "Go to your house, you are not allowed to get in this room". He stopped and pushed Sarah away. Sarah became angry, "How can you say that ....I say my parent's pictures in this room....I want to know about them", she said.

Lan's anger went to the peak. His face become ash colour .His hairs dropped the floor. His red lips become dried and bruised dark.He smelled like rotten flesh. Many marks on his deadly face the blood oozed from it and dried. Sarah was fainted looking at his Ghostly.

When she was awoke, She reminded herself about the key on seeing a box. She searched for Lan once. She went near the door slowly and peeked outside to verify whether he's still there. She couldn't find him anymore. Then she went inside and looked at the boxes. She had only one key, but there are many boxes. She tried connecting her key with the boxes. Unfortunately not even a single box unlocked when she tried with 15 boxes. She tried hard to open the boxes.

Finally a small box unlocked by the key. Inside the box was a small hole. It seems that something must be fit inside that. Suddenly Sarah took her locket and placed the blue stone from it. Lan quite often tried to touch her locket many times. There is some secret in that blue stone. But Sarah never minded about it.

She mildly placed the stone in its center. It gave a blue spark which is extremely bright. And she found a parchment written something. The light in the room is not sufficient to read what is written, so she decided to go to home.

She sat on the desk and lighted the lamp and opened the parchment from her bag. The writings were too tiny, unable to read clearly, so she searched for a magnifying glass. She found a small magnifying glass and read the first line. 'Deep dark blood oozing from the wall'. Sarah didn't even consider it serious. She continued reading. The second line was written that ''canine dog will be changed to dreadful wolf'. She heard buttercup's bark. She twirled her head around to see it.

But she can't understand what was written in it. She heard buttercup's bark , she called it, but it doesn't arrived there for a long time. She stood up from her desk and moved towards her room's doorway. She kept her hand on the wall sensing something thick water. Deep alive blood oozed from the wall through many wholes.

Butter coloured butter cup looked dreadful. Its eyes were terrific like an wolf. Blood was dropping from the holes of its body from the nose, eyes, ears and mouth. Sarah don't even had the guts to look at it. She's frightened and thrilled to the peak.Her heart beat ran rapidly creating hot sensation. She tried to breath but she was unable to breath properly.

Without knowing what to do Sarah took the parchment and her bag and ran away from the house without seeing its back. Buttercup came at her back following faster. But she's not as normal as before. It chasing as a wolf. She couldn't find anyone in the streets. The moon was red like blood. Bats flew over the sky. She ran for some time and became so tired.

Sarah found a tunnel and protected herself into it. She was miserably confused. Tears came out of her eyes in fear. She had a torch in her bag. She took the torch out and read the 3rd line of the parchment. 'Grave is your city'. She closed it immediately in fear. She tried to go inside the tunnel to reach a safe place to rest in. She found a bright light at its end. She slowly went there with some doubt.

When she came out it was a graveyard. She saw a grave of her granny, her mother, her father, and Lan. She felt sad to see her granny's grave. She thought her granny was alive still. When she moved to see all the names in the graveyard she saw her name in a grave 'Sarah born 12.01.2000 to 12. 05. 2018', It is the next day actually.

She was started to get the fear of dying from the time. Immediately she heard a bark sound. Yeah it's buttercup, coming in extreme hunger. She started to run. Her right leg sprained and she fell inside a ditch.
