Eji and bella ran the stairs up the 2nd floor of the supermarket. The 2nd floor is filled with clothes, a tv on the wall, Eji hits the screen as fear surrounds his minds. Bella quivering, the duo hides behind the clothes.
"We have to find way to run to a church, am sure we can be saved" that's Marta's weakness"
"How Do you know that? Bella questioned
"It's because, I found out the day we dated, she was afraid to come into the church and she is afraid of necklace with a cross ".
The duo slowly tip toe not making a sound with their foot trying to find a back door in a large room with four huge squared windows made of glass. Light filtered from the electric bulbs into the room.
Suddenly the desk, the cloths and anything made of wood and metal elevates into the air. And Marta appears 16 feet in red gown behind the duo's back with deep a voice, she spoke a top the duo's head.
HELLO EJI, YOU TRULY THINK YOU CAN HIDE FROM ME, the duo turned their head slowly looking up at Marta,
Bella YOU TOOK MY BELOVED HATRED EJI KUROSAKI FROM MEEEE
In a blink of an eye, Marta swiftly grabs Bella across her neck, and swings her with a sheer amount of force across the second floor hitting the window.
I love you eji always remember that, she smiles as the window began to shatters bursting through the 2nd floor window descending to the ground.
NOOOOOOOOOooooooooohooO, "Bellaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh! stretching his hand to the directions of Bella with his eyes full of shock with a tears dropping down from his eye, he screams in pain as he notice Bella cross necklace wrapped around his hand.
What? You idiots Bella, this is the only thing that could save you When did she?
Eji began to recall back that day.
Eji began to recall back his memories.
Bella and I spent the entire day together. Immediately the school closing clock resounded through school hall, the duo walked in a romantic atmosphere, Bella holding unto eji's arm with smiles and happiness the students praise him for kissing his girlfriend.
For some reasons we felt like spending time with each other perhaps it was because we kissed in tears in school or maybe I deeply missed her because I feared Marta killed her. We felt that urge to spend time together, we went to her dorm, we mildly locked lips on our uniform, we kissed in her room for a while and then it became intense, and you know,
One minute we found our self off our uniforms and the next thing I know we were naked, and we did God knows what. May God forgive my sins, At that time, she had her necklace on. It was about 6pm walked home after I kiss her good night. Memories of her flashes of the 5 rounds we, you know, had flash through my mind, as I blush uncontrollably. It was the first for me you know. Well if you don't know, what i mean then write it down like that.
I walked into my room and then I lay atop my bed.
"Marta was not answering me today, something is off"
I decided to check Marta's eye version from the day I feel asleep, I saw sketches, drew quite a lot and I submitted the webtoon art work for the competition.
I saw the editor wail in dread as if he was seeing a ghost, his flesh being sucked dried, I noticed a face i have never seen before Marta's original form but that form scared the shit out of me. The clawed hand and the brownish red body of hers, so I decide to check the editors mind through his eyes.
That evening, my webtoon art Marta I had drawn was read by the staff and curators of webtoon, they were intrigue to see their logo in a killer story, so they published it throughout their online platform worldwide. The chief edition said he was going on a date with his wife, he would check the webtoon by morning. And that night the webtoon curators and 10million viewers from webtoon were killed with their phone on the floor with webtoon logo on the screen..
By morning the webtoon chief administrator had a called that 10 percent of his staff had died. He paid a visit to each and every dead curator and the only thing they notice was their flesh sucked dried to the bones and bloody Marta rules appeared on every phone. The police detectives read and discussed about the webtoon and the next day, those who read the webtoon had died, the same way the rest of them died. The more the police read and mention the name, the more they died in large numbers.
If one should read and mention the name. Then Marta shows up through the picture from the webtoon art by night fall, turning their phones on by its self. Anyone in that surrounding who came to stop or prevents Marta died. It takes just one read to kill several. If I read the Marta webtoon and call the name. The power of the spoken word of Marta comes to life inviting Marta into the homes of who so ever read the webtoon and that person dies and any other in that house.
Until this day, I woke up, having fun with my girlfriend not knowing what was happening. Millions of viewers reading webtoon had died from reading my graphic novel within five days.
I got up and quickly check my laptop, I was lucky to use an alias name.
I saw, what Marta and I had discussed killing just three had turn to millions. She used to me redraw a script. The story of how I killed people for revenge, how I melt Bella, my entire life story from day one and then place a killer photo with a law of the spoken word bringing words from sentences to life. She needed me to give her permission to kill. And I she took advantage of me as a human host. Ghost can't not operate without a human body to function.
I tried to pull down the upload but it did not work. So I decided to destroy the laptop to pieces, so I won't be traced by the police. Then I began to pack up my things so as I can run. In case it has being traced. I just finished when I saw tons of police officers in amour vehicles began to swarm the building apartment outside the house.
"Shit" I have being traced already"
I knew what kind of thing I do, killing people, I knew that they were brilliant detective who could track people, so I chose to rent a place with little or no people. I rented that place and I killed the landlord from the beginning Long ago. So knowing my face would not be know, I always put on hoodies , so my face won't be easily seen, I set ablaze my room, and ran through the escape route's was heavily chased by the cops with dogs smelling my every scent. I never planned in mind with entire police officers chasing one guy.
"Stop right there! Swat officers armored to the teeth shot at me aiming for my leg.
Thwack
Thwack,
, "Don't kill him!, we have to get him alive or else nothing will stop". Another spoke. I run through the woods. I ran and moments I was able to escape under a tunnel, cops swarm the entire city with total locked down.
Later Bella called me, I tried to pretend as if nothing was happening, I tried to stay calm and talk sweetly, I was going to tell her about my situation but I couldn't because she called to commend me for a good job on the story bloody webtoon.
I panicked,
'Were you?
"Am in the dorm" she chuckle.
'OK, stay put, don't go anywhere, I am coming to get you"
"Why, you left here a moment ago and you already missing me" . Bella questioned, ha "don't tell me you want to go for another five round" She sarcastically spoke chuckling
"Who spoils you like this? I questioned
"It's you now, or did you catch me with another guy? Chuckling" anyway "stay put am on my way".
I began to find my way running to her house, taking different route from my initial planned , I ran out of an alley ,I checked my watched, quarter to 7 says the time, I lift my head, and suddenly, A hand shot out from behind me covering my mouth, while an arm circles my wrist Handcuffed dragging me into a black van swiftly driving a way.".
"You are to remain silent for any thing you do or say will be used against you in the court of law". A guard dressed in black spoke angrily
"Huuuuh!" He should remain silent, a man dressed in brown pattern suit spoke distastefully.
"Are you alright? He questioned? 10million people are dead, if you lost your wife or kid to whatever is happening, do you think you want him to remain silent".
"Am Sorry detective Robin, I am just used to those words, I swat guard spoke.
I turn to look, blue eyes, full curling hair, and pale skin
"You better start talking " he looked straight into my eyes.
...
Moments later, I was cited In a squared room, no window, just a black monitor window, I have seen it in movies, that's were some idiot stands watching, metal desk and two chairs.
Robin walked in With a female detective who handled rays case.
They slide their chair and sit.
They slide pictures of the governor taken from a black box, flight attendant, Mike, ray, my father and step-mother with Black Hand imprints across their neck. Then a webtoon photo.
'Explain". He demanded.
I looked at them perplexed on what to say. Bella is in trouble, if my memory is correct, Marta will kill her several minutes for now as the day is fading quickly, I am trying to remain calm, I have to think of a way through this.
"I am surprised" the female detective spoke , that it was be you all along, everything make sense but not all. We traced the upload through your Gmail. When I saw your face, I was surprised. Your father and your mother had black imprint across their necks, the governor and the flight attendant, then 10 million deaths worldwide. Cases of Black Hand imprinted across their neck and the all leads to you. I investigated through ray's evidence and we discovered all your mothers' wealth stolen and most of that enemy arrested or died. It like you are on a revenge mission. The female cop spoke angrily banging the table".
"So are you saying, I murdered 10million people and what will be my gain? I questioned wearing a blank expression.
"You are a suspect of these murders, clear your name, I took the liberty of reading your upload online tracing you" ' he slides the laptop towards me. What's this curse you talked about?
"You read it? I questioned
"Yes, I did. he raised an eyebrow
"I advice you get everyone out of here, but you, I pointed to Robin "stay", everyone is in a great danger".
"Young man, what do you mean great danger?
"Am sorry, you going to died, it's, a ghost, let's just say my mother died, and in her death bed, she made a curse and she sold her soul to a ghost to go on a revenge mission, the ghost did all the work but at the end. The ghost is trying to kill my girlfriend and you now are holding me back from saving her."
A Ghost? Do you expect me believe your crappy story? She questioned
"Oh you find out soon enough, what say the time?"
7:59pm he spoke.
"She will be here any moment, I advised you tell everyone to leave." I was yet talking as the night faded in darkness.
The laptop atop table, suddenly turn on from its sleep mode. It began to screw by itself, Opening webtoon in front of the screen.
The two detectives stood up from their sit, puzzled, the female detective reach for her gun.
"How is this working? It's not even connected to the internet? .he questioned perplexedly.
"When you read it, I believe the ghost stores picture it in your cache files or thumb data or cookies, either way, having internet or not doesn't matter, she is only here for you and she must kill you. Once that picture pops up, Marta will come in as a window. "I finished speaking and the screen pops up Marta's image with a hand.
For few seconds nothing happened and then all of a suddenly, a red blackish clawed hand shoots out from the screen with long black finger nails. it stretched gripping the detective's neck Robin, the female detective quivering Fell to the ground fumbling with her gun. Mildly the screen of the laptop turns red liquid looking like red water popping a head with long red and black hair. In matter of seconds, a 16feet womanly ghost rose up tall still holding the neck to Robin who grasp for air.
Thwack
Thwack, haaaaaaaa
The female detective shot her gun continuously. Marta howl, her mouth was like a huge black hallow void. She bites into Robins soft neck of flesh, as its flesh was swallow up with his eyeballs falling to the ground remaining skeletal bones.
Haaaaaaaaaaa Haaaaaaa, haaaaaaa,
Thwack
Thwack
Thwack
Her gun fires repeatedly from a corner of the room wall, fear envelops her with dread in her eyes, the gun Bullets finished and the Marta grip her swallowing her flesh up.
I stood behind my sit, quivering from the true terror I just saw. I have never see Marta in this form or state before however luckily, I am bonded by a contract with Marta, so if my mind is correct she won't kill me.
She turned her face, it was mixed with decayed brown, black and red, her Iris's and pupil was red and yellow, her face was delayed to her chin ,she was on wore a red bloody gown like a marriage wedding dress.
HELLO EJIRO, HAHAHAHAHA,
"So this true form, why why, why did you do it, how did you even do it?
HAHHAHA, A QUESTION AT A TIME, EJI, YOU ARE SCARED, I HAVE MANY FORM BUT THERE TWO VALUED FORM I HAVE, THE FORM OF MY YOUTH WITH MY BLACK SCHOOL UNIFORM, I WAS KILLED AT KING CREST HIGH SCHOOL.

HAAAAHAHAHAHA. I AM GOING TO KILL BELLA TONIGHT, THAT'S THE ONLY WAY WE CAN REDEEM OUR FRIENDSHIP, AN EYE FOR AN EYE.
I was shocked, I tried to talk to Marta when the door burst wide open swarming with cops who heard the gun shot and screams and Marta began to kill them one by one and I took that opportunity to run. Losing Bella was the last thing I want, I made up my mind to fight, i could even die fighting Marta.
Marta held Bella hostage waiting for me to come. Marta won't be able to kill her due to the necklace power she had on her neck however I feared Marta, because she has a way to kill someone, I ran to a supermarket store, to buy a cross, gambling it might work in killing Marta. I used the last money to buy one. And shortly I had arrived at Bella's dorm. She gripped Bella's neck against the wall.

Eji looks between Marta and Bella.
"I Choose Bella" eji replied with solemn face.
WRONG ANSWER, YOUR CONTRACT WITH ME IS HEREBY NULLIFIED. Marta stretched her clawed hands and she grips eji across the neck pinning him against the wall hoping to kill him.
Marta squeezed the duos neck with her two hands as she brings her face to suck out the flesh from the duo's face, eji spoke out
"You are forgetting something Marta",
HUH WHATS THAT?
I know your damn weakness eji reached for his pant pockets, brings out the wooden cross and strikes Marta s necks.
