Chapter 25 - Gas Station (Chpt. 24)

The car starts to move, and for the most part you feel really bored, looking out the window at all the cars, buildings and trees. You don't remember when but you dozed off. When you woke up, it was already 2 pm. The radio is cranked up very high. "Apparently this is a believed to be a curse from a goddesses by the name of Fe'h'wie, who they say can see the future and is the goddess of endings." "Fe'h'wie? Leon, is it what i think it is?" Your Mother says, scared. ",,,I think it is." Your father says, as he adjusts his glasses. "What, what should we do?" "I'm afraid there is nothing we can do." "What are y'all talking about?" You ask as you just heard what they said. "Oh nothing, are you hungry? We have sandwiches in the back. We can stop to take them out." "No thanks mum, I'm not hungry." Your mother turns back around. There was light traffic so the car would stop sometimes . The humming of the cars on the road was very soothing in a way.

You closed your eyes and saw those little shapes when you close them for a long time. In no time you fell asleep once again but this time it was to the humming of the cars. When you woke up you heard a ringing noise that seemed to be coming from all directions. "What's that noise?" Lorely asked as she looked around. "What noise?" Lucien asks. "Shh, listen closely." She said as she put one finger to her lips. Everyone went quiet and after a few seconds everyone heard it. "I'm not really sure what that is." Your father says as he frowns and he keeps driving. Slowly the traffic starts to disappear and the road is now nearly empty. Your father and Chris's car go into a gas station. "We need to fill up the tanks." He and Chris get down.

They stand there while they waited for their cars to finish filling up. There are only 4 other cars there. "Why are those people coming towards us?" Ellington asks as he points to a small crowd of people who were coming over. "Hm?" Your mother turns around to look at what he's talking about.

There is a bunch of people in the shadows cast by the trees from the forest. Walking, very slowly over. "Get in the cars!" Chris says as he runs towards his door. Everyone scrambled to get in one of the cars. "Why? What happened?" Maya asks from the middle row. "I, well I'm not sure but I think I saw blood on one of their hands." "Shouldn't we help them out then? They may be hurt." "I'm not sure, but I don't feel like the blood is theirs." "What?" "Just keep watching, to make sure they're of no threat." You all sit still, waiting for them to leave the shadows to get a clear view of them. One of them finally steps out, it's a woman. Her clothes is ripped and she has scratch marks all over her arms. "We have to help her!" "Wait, look!" The woman turns around as Maya opens the door. Her mouth is split open, showing parts of her jaw, and her right eye is hanging off by a thread. The woman charges towards her door, she quickly closes the door. "Ah!" She screams as she's thrown back. Chris quickly locks the doors. Everyone stays still as the woman keeps banging on the window while the crowd passes by as towards the people that are out in the open, running into the gas station. "One of you, call your parents, now." Ray quickly pulled out his phone and called both of them. "Ray? Are you there? Are you okay? What happened, is everyone okay?"

"Yes mom, we're all fine, but what is going on?"
