Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Get Away With Murder

"OH MY GOD! WHAT DID YOU DO! HE'S DEAD! HE IS DEAD I'M NOT READY TO GO TO JAIL!" Sungah shouts.

"YOU LITERALLY HAVE A CRIMINAL RECORD YOU DUMB HOE," Luther muttered.

"WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BURY HIM. GET RID OF THE EVIDENCE, CHANGE NAMES AND GO TO ANOTHER COUNTRY... QUICK LET ME MAKE MY PHONE CALLS TO SAY GOODBYE TO ALL MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS." Sungah pulls out her phone and mumbled words to the people she's calling.

"You stupid hoe!" I smack her phone away from her. "He's not dead you dumb idiot. Clearly, I said to Greg, knock him out, and not kill him." I squint my eyes on Sungah panicking.

"Well, what are we going to do if he wakes up? How are we going to explain that we knocked him out? So suddenly. It's not like we can just think of it as a joke like how they do in the choke challenge thing that teens do." Greg panicked.

"LET JUST BURY HIS CORPSE AND CHANGE NAMES AND LEAVE THE COUNTRY. DO YOU GUYS HAVE PASSPORTS?!"

"AGAIN HE ISN'T DEAD SUNGAH!"

"ALSO how did he even get in here?! This is a pretty secluded place... and the others are inside playing the lottery so how did he find his way here..." Sungah asked in a puzzled manner.

"I think it's my fault...." I spoke up. "I think he must have followed me or something...."

As we continued to bicker, we see Luther standing still with a straight face on grabbing something from his pocket. Some kind of needle with a bottle. We stopped for a second looking at him. Bowing down to Louie unconscious body and poking him with the needle

"What are you doing Luther?" I asked him.

"You guys are wasting time. Remember... we need his blood. It's a good thing, Greg knocked him out... I can harvest his blood with this bone needle just fine. So would you excuse me? I need to get his blood." Luther continued draining some blood in Louie's body.

"What are we going to do? I mean we can't just keep him here also what if he remembers, he did see us in circle magic and us planning something against him... he might try to get us or something. Quinones Food Corporation is known for some shady business..." Sungah said shivering...

"I'm pretty sure he won't remember I mean we did knock out multiple people including Sungah before... I'm pretty sure he wouldn't remember right?" Greg said timidly.

"WAIT IS THAT WHY I SOMETIMES WAKE UP IN MY BED WITHOUT REMEMBERING ANYTHING! YOU GUYS KNOCKED ME OUT!"

"Well when we do it.. we usually take them to their beds so it'll look like a dream but how are we going to make it like a dream for him if we don't even know where he is," I said to Greg.

"HEY, YOU GUYS ARE IGNORING ME! HMPH!" Sungah pouted.

"What if we like sneak inside his house and throw his body into his bed?" I suggested.

"Pretty sure a billionaire like him has so much security in their house and considering he does shady business there's no way we can get in without getting noticed." Greg sighed.

"Ehem." Luther stood up. "Actually we don't need to take him there personally.. someone here can take him to his house. You know someone he is close to..." Luther hinted onto something...

"Oh, that's right! Isabel, his fiancee... Maybe we can just ask her to take him home... but what are we going to do? We can't exactly just tell her, Hey! We just knocked out your fiancee can you take him home." I said in a sarcastic manner.

"Pretty sure we can just lie. Say that we found him that he fainted or something and he needs to be taken home also his fiancee doesn't look the bit brightest.. and since you two are all buddy-buddy with one another. You can just girl talk her, tricking her to take him home." Luther added.

Yup.. not gonna lie... that's a pretty good idea.

"I'll do it... although Greg, can you help me carry his body? He is a bit heavy." I said to him.

"Of course." Greg nodded.

"Wait! I'll take your blood Grace... so Sungah and I can start the ritual... considering midnight is a few minutes... We need to start it when the moon power is at its strongest." Luther stated.

"Alright then." I nodded as Luther approached me with the bone needle. I'm AFRAID OF NEEDLES... I start to bite my lips gently to ease the pain as he stabbed it in my arm. "IT HURTS LIKE HELL!" I exclaimed as Luther continued to gather the blood from my wrist.

"You know you could have just taken some of her hair right? It would have been better." Sungah said in the back.

"WAIT YOU CAN TAKE MY HAIR AND YOU CHOSE TO HURT ME WITH THE NEEDLE YOU KNOW I'M AFRAID WITH NEEDLES!" I shout at him who seems not to be disturbed with it.

"Okay, let's start the ritual take Mr. big shot to his fiancee to take him home or something," Luther said as he shooed us away.

Does he have some kind of hate towards me or something.... anyways Greg and I both grab Louie's body... damn as I touched it I can feel his muscles... he's pretty muscular..... and his face when he sleeps... he's hot... I-

"Hey! You are drooling Grace. Don't drool on the corpse." I hear Greg, breaking my trance.

"Oh! I am?!" I try to wipe off which I find out I wasn't "HEY!"

"Well, you seem to be enjoying touching his body this much Grace..." Greg made a little cheeky remark.

"Oh shut up you," I said to him blushing... "Anyways better put on your acting faces..."

Good thing I'm good at acting, I had to develop acting skills for business especially business is about confidence and more importantly skill... some don't really have skills they just act confident and make people believe they do have skills.

"Wait here! I'll go on and call Isabel." I say to Greg as I went inside.

"For this lottery the winner is..." We hear in the background. I see Isabel in the corner of my eye and I walked slowly towards her to not interrupt the others. "Hey, Isabel... I.. there's something outside! Please come outside right now! It's your fiancee... there's something wrong with him..." I said in my fakest concerned voice.

"Oh my! Where?!" She stands up to dash into where her fiancee is.

"What happened!" She asked as we arrived outside the venue where Louie's body is sleeping.

"I don't know sweetie... maybe he passed out... we saw him in the garden over there... perhaps something happened?" I said in a fake concerned voice.

"I'll take him to a hospital right away! Time to call the ambulance." Isabel takes out her phone and starts calling the ambulance...

We waited there as Greg tried to console her... hardening the illusion that we didn't do anything wrong... as we see Louie being taken by the ambulance.

"I should probably go with them too... it was nice meeting you guys again. Perhaps we can swap phone numbers... so we can have some time to chat outside of the school." Isabel hands me her phone number.

Which I accepted with a smile... It can be useful for my plan.

"Alright then... I'm going with them to the hospital now... see you guys!" Isabel waved us goodbye as I see her join along in the ambulance.

"Welp... that worked out well than I expected... although this moving around really messed my bow.." Greg fixed his hair bow.

"Grace! It's ready..." I hear Sungah coming towards us.

"Alright then." I followed Sungah to the magic circle that Greg drew...

"The ritual is done... all I have to do is to put all the ingredients in the middle and both of your blood.. in these separate containers..." Sungah puts the ingredients and the stuff as where they are supposed to be.

She closed her eyes and chanted an incantation . as the wind starts to grow stronger around us... something big is happening... the trees are swinging and the grass is dancing... and in the peak of it all.. nothing... nothing big happened. It all just stopped.

"Huh? Did it fail?" I ask them.

We look in the ingredients and see them missing including the blood samples... it did work... but It's less amazing than I expected...

"Huh? Why aren't I controlling Louie's body now?" I ask her.

"The spell should take a while to do since I'm not really the master of that spell yet. Anyways tomorrow when you sleep it should work tomorrow. So call us or give us a sign. Actually we might go to your house tomorrow first thing in the morning to check if it worked. Got it?" Sungah said sternly.

And that's how the reunion ended... not that I met up with a lot of people... but I did my mission... get the blood of Louie and manipulate him... it's only about time tomorrow.

We all go to my car as they both are there... I'll just take a look at something... I got out of the ca.

"I'll just grab something... be right back," I say to them turning around from them.

"COME WITH ME!" I hear the voice of a man behind me, HE pounced like an animal found his prey, holding a handkerchief wrapping it around my mouth, I fight back, moving around like a fish out of water... as my vision starts to fade black...

what.. the... what's- I... the last thing I saw was my friends running after me... "GRACE!" they shouted...

Help me... please...
