Chapter 2 - Accidents

Why? Was that bus accident just an accident?

Was it meant to kill me? The count down hasn't even reached Zero.

I've gotta find out everything about this watch.

Are there other people like me? The school bell rang. I was even paler than yesterday and my legs can't stop shaking. I asked my friend if there were any homeworks yesterday, As I was too busy solving my current lethal problem.

"Hey Frits, Were there any homeworks yesterday?"

"No, nothing at all."

"OK, thank you"

Frits nodded as if he was saying you're welcome. I was so busy planning how to prevent my death and before I knew it, The class is over. I went back to the library just like yesterday. The bus accident, That could never be a coincidence. If something like that happened that involves a lot of people, There might be others beside me. Who are the people behind this thing, and what do they want from us? As I looked into the watch, There was only 1,378 hours left.

I've gotta find a way out this mess fast, And why me? Out of all people that are living meaningless lives, they picked me. I decided

to go home, but I didn't took the bus out of fear.

when I got home I checked if there were anyone following me. There were no one following me, but I swear I knew someone was following me near my school area.

As I enter my home I decided to turn on my Television. To check for any freak accidents happening. I sat down on the couch.

"Tommorow will be raining lightly so pack up your umbrella and wear your rain coat because you're gonna get wet if you don't."

"This afternoon was burning hot, how could it rain the next day?"

I cooked up a meal for I was hungry, but I wasn't prepared to hear what's happening in the Road I usually take.

"The killer on the Sultana incident hasn't been caught, Reports says that a Caucasian man was seen walking with a knife. After that 3 bodies were Discovered near the area, It is said to be that the victims didn't knew each other.

And one of them has Strange Pocket watch"

I quickly looked out the window to see if there is anyone watching me but, There was nobody. I turned off the TV and locked all the windows and the door. I took a knife and put it on my bed table. I looked at the watch and there were only 1,374 hours left. I woke up at the middle of the night because I heard a bang outside the house. I checked it but there was nothing. there was a woman walking in the street and there was a figure following her. I warned the woman.

"Miss! Look behind You!"

the woman saw the man following her and I tried to go outside as fast as I can. but when I got outside the mysterious figure was already

at a distance I asked the woman what was happening.

"Do you know him?"

"N-no I do not."

"Why is he following you?"

"Maybe he wants to mug me?"

"Do you have a watch that counts down to a certain date?"

"No I don't, why do you ask? "

"No reason at all, just have a safe trip home"

"Thank you"

I went back to my house and went back to bed. I might have just prevented a meaningless death. the Sultana killer might know something about what was happening

and about these watches. I looked at my watch and there were only 1,370 hours left
