"Those monsters are going to storm my house this night. I've paid for a holy barrier, it extends as far as the grass does, it cleanses everything evil. But, the ghost has bigger numbers this time"
"What are you planning to do?"
"What can I do? I will wait, and if the barrier collapses, I will pray for the god of…" He cut himself of before he could finish his sentence, he realised that it was something he couldn't say.
Noah looked over the lawn from this heightened position. The slaves were standing in a line where the grass ended. Above them was the ghost, It's smile spread further that its face. Showing its gruesome teeth.
Noah looked away, "How will I survive this" he thought to himself. He took out his daggers and looked at them, they were lighter than a feather at the moment. "Then he thought about it, it wasn't his battle, he could escape, but how?
He was stuck with a senile old man, a crazy murderer, and himself. He loved every second of it.
The full moon exited the horizon and a qualitative change happened to the slaves and ghost. The ghost grew limbs, that were long and sharp. The slaves eyes turned to a special form of black.
They tried to walk towards the mansion, they were knocked away by a golden translucent barrier. The ghost stood on all four limbs, it opened its mouth and shouted. It shouted a ear piercing scream so loud that blood came out of the senile man's ears. The barrier shattered, and the ghost collapsed.
The slaves stormed the building. The old man hurried down into the mansion whilst muttering, "I will not die like this. Not to those insects. Help me god of pain". Noah was confused, two seconds ago those insects were his children.
"Where are you going?", Noah said as he closed in behind him, the man turned a corner and when Noah turned the same corner, the man was gone. "Fuck", Noah thought. However, he had bigger issues to deal with, 12 ghosts were running at him with full intent of killing him.
"Let's escape, we can out run the slaves, the ghost was the only true problem"
"We can't, they surrounded the building, I saw it with my eyes", Ode said.
Noah cursed under his breath. We can't stay on the roof they'll trap us too quickly. He and Ode travelled down the hallway. There was a red mat on the wooden floor, the walls high were filled with pictures of the old man alone.
He turned a corner and saw the slave with no arms, however, there was two shadow looking arms on him now. He mindlessly ran up towards them, he was quick. Ode ran towards him, the slave threw a heavy right, it looked to have a lot of force behind it. Ode rolled to the left and stuck a dagger into his heart. The slave threw another punch whilst the dagger was in his heart, Ode used backtrack and arrived beside Noah. "Are they unkillable", Noah suggested, he glanced at ode. He was furiously licking his lips putting Venom to shame. He ran forward, fainted once again and chopped off the slaves head.
The body collapsed and Ode took out the dagger. They ran down the hallway. The next corner they turned and there was two slaves standing there. Noah ran up this time, since he had then backtrack ready.
They were qualitatively quicker. A fast right and his head was completely dizzy, before they could punch him again he backtracked. Ode ran forward, he dodged the punched by bending backwards. He jumped up and grabbed one of the slaves with his legs. He spun and flipped the slave over. The second slave leaped for him, he ducked and pushed, the slave flew into the wall running it.
Ode brought out his dagger and cut of the head of the slave under him. Then he walked to the second one and cut his head off. They ran down the hallway. There was a crossing, on one side there was three slaves, and the other nobody stood.
"Go find that old man, I'll take care of them"
"You sure?"
"Just go"
Noah ran towards the other direction. There was a staircase there, he slid down the staircase and reached the bottom. There stood a slave there keeping watch, Noah grew a slight smile when he saw who it was.
"Hetho"
"Fuck off", he was practically grinning at this point. When he had pointed his daggers at the slave, he was laughing loudly. The slave wore a smile, as if he was also enjoying the occurence. "Sothy abouth this", the slave ran towards him.
He threw a left, and without thinking Noah reflexively dodged. The slave went for a high kick, it missed. Before Noah could do anything, he jumped at Noah and grabbed him, they begun rolling around the floor, hitting each wall. They rolled into a bookshelf, instead of shaking and dropping a few books, it opened a hidden door. His eyes widened at the sigh, but they were quickly brought back to the slave.
The slave mounted him and begun hitting him, he hit him hard enough for the world to blur. Noah stabbed the slave over and over in the stomach but nothing came from it. He extended his legs and made the slave stumble over him.
The slaves eyes averted Noah for a few seconds and when he looked back he was nowhere to be seen. The fight was over, he had slashed his head off. His entire world was dizzy though, he'd taken a real beating.
He stumbled into the darkness that came from the hidden doors. There was a staircase leading down, he took it and then saw the old man praying. He looked around in the room, he saw chains, torture tools, children to teenagers, bones. He sat there and prayed.
Noah stumbled towards him. The man seemed shocked that Noah was there, he stood up. "What, how did you get here?".
There was a dagger on his waist which he pulled out, he angrily made his way towards Noah. Noah, which still had a fuzzy mind, stumbled towards him, he clumsily swung the dagger at him. Noah blocked it, not from sight, not from feeling the air, from sensing it.
'level up'
'danger sense has levelled up'
'danger sense has levelled up'
The old man stumbled back, and he went for another attack. It got blocked halfway, in front of him stood a bloody Ode. He used his other hand to punch the man, he fell asleep. He heard the wailings come from the walls. They begged him to end their lives, and he obliged. He walked to each one and slit their throats, meanwhile he did it. He felt something leave him.
When he walked to the old man, and tried to slit his throat he was stopped by Ode. He nodded towards the torture weapons, "I was thinking you leave him alone with me, we'll have some fun you know". Noah looked at him, one thought echoed in his mind, "You crazy motherfucker.
Noah stumbled around the house, he came across the previous head of a slave, it had completely rotten. He stumbled into a room with a bed and cried until he fell asleep on the cold wooden floor.
The next day held something new for him.
