"Rena!" Roy was staring at Liam with his not it's deadly eyes! Liam was unable to move his eyes away from Roy. That disgusting face it was having. It was just beside Liam.
Liam grabbed Rena's arms, "Come on damn it! Come here before that thing eats us!"
Roy followed. His big mouth opened.
"Oh my god, oh my god! Liam is in danger what am I going to do?" Ava was peeping through the door of the backyard that is in the kitchen.
"But why us you bastard? And what happened to you?!" Liam didn't get any answer. Not from Roy nor from Rena. Rena was partially unconscious.
"Uh."
"Uh? Rena? Get up hey! You can't do this to me, we will have to fight together, get up!" Roy again made an attempt to eat Liam.
"I never thought that this day will come so early. But... this is not a ghost. This a monster!! No one said that we will have to fight this monster!" Liam was successful in dodging each attack of Roy but was as well complaining.
"I just need to run from here. There is no need for me to really fight this guy. I will just run inside," Liam died. But his decision didn't stay for much longer.
"Huh? Hey come on this is no the time your system!" Liam shouted knowing that he is not going to get any response in return.
"Is this a dream? Am I dreaming? Why am I feeling like I am the protagonist from any web novel? There is no way I can save you all..."
"Wait did that system just said, Brook? My Brook?" The rage in Liam's eyes grew. The flames sprouting out of Liam's body.
"You bastard! Leave Brook alone at once!" Liam let go off of Rena's arms. Liam clenched his fist and started running towards IT.
"Argh!" Missed. A total miss. A clear as water miss. "Ae? Where is?"
*Too slow*
'fuck!' too late for Liam. Roy was already behind him. His big mouth opened. Just an inch from Liam's head to be chop off and get eaten by that monster.
'No. No, I don't want to die like this! I still have not found myself a girl-'
'What? Duck?' with no further thinking Liam's body moved on its own and ducked down. A sharp throwing knife went from above his head. Liam panicked. A drop of blood started to fall on Liam's head and forehead. From there down to his eyes.
Liam looked from where that came from. Ava! She had opened the door of the backyard. Ava was standing there in the doorway.
"Thanks, Ava!" Liam raised a thumbs up, "You saved the day!"
"You forgot Liam," the grin on Liam's face faded. Did I forget? Wha- ah~ got it,
'The...'
"The..."
'Way of the dead...'
"The way of the dead..."
'Is never easy, right?'
"Is never easy, Liam,"
Liam closed his eyes, a smile appeared on Liam's lips.
More blood started to fall on Liam's shoulders and forehead. His orange hairs were getting ruined.
Roy took out the knife that was thrown by Ava right into its left eye. Liam looked at the blood, the wait was that even blood? It was black in color! Liam got alert! He made his move quickly out of Roy's reach. Liam was on his knees. The only thing he was able to do was slide using those knees to go as far as he can and is possible.
'Somehow you say but how? Will not that thing come after-' Liam stopped thinking. He stopped at the instant, his mouth dropped open and his eyes went big. They were like 'Huh?'
The system was notified through the voice message. Liam started at Roy as it was not coming at Liam anymore, I- it was not going for Liam this time, it was going for Ava!
"Ava! Snap out! Go inside!" No good. Roy was already close to Ava. He was way too close for Ava to even close the door. The knife was in Roy's right hand. The blood of black color dropping drop by drop n the green grass. Liam got up and tried to save Ava, he stumbled on the way to get up.
"You can't hurt her you bastard!" Lam grabbed Roy from his back, the knife was still in Roy's hands. That was very dangerous. The knife can anytime be pierced into Liam's body. Liam shouted. He pulled Roy behind and dropped him on the ground.
Liam was panting, "You okay Liam?"
Liam looked behind him, Ava was coming out.
"Y- you fool! If you want to really fight this shit then come out fight instead of being half-asses," that hurts. Ava moves her hand back. She was going to put her hand on Liam's shoulders b decided to retreat the decision
"I- I am sorry," Liam looked at the body of Roy that was lying on the ground.
The smirk was still on Roy's face. That was making the smirk look very, very provoking. Like Roy was trying to provoke Lia or something.
"hey! But where is Brook?" Brook was not there. But the system told that Brook was also in danger!
"God, good," The ghost spoke. Liam got more alert. He had to. Roy gt up weakly, the knife was still in his rotten hands. The grey and green hands. Just like they are of the undead. Roy's hand with no knife went near his lips. Moved down after rubbing his own lips with his wrist. Like wiping the blood even f there was none.
"This is really crazy,"
"It is scary!"
"Ava, tell me this time or real," Ava looked at Liam.
"What Lam?"
"Tell me if you are really going to 0fught? If you are not going to fight the pleas be seated inside the kitchen. The fight is going to get insane,"
Roy was slowly making it towards Liam and Ava,. Ava hesitated when she was thrown deep into the thought of what Liam just asked.
'What can I do? I can't just leave Liam here to fight himself, no. More than that, Lim can never beat that corpse head-on. No impossible.'
"Hey, decided fast that thing is coming!" Liam moved his hands. He spread out his arms. To prot3ect Ava who was behind Liam.
'there is no way I can leave him! Sister Rena is also laying on the ground, something bad must have happened with her, poor sister. This can also happen with Liam! I can't go, only for Liam... I will fight my fears!'
Shit! Roy increased his speed. That was just in the blink of an eye, Roy a already in front of Liam. Lam took a step back. But Roy was too fast for Liam!
"This is!" Roy took his hand with the knife back and then brought it forward at full speed, "I can't go out of here now! I al leat will –need to save Ava if I can!" Liam pinched closed his eyes./
"Ah!" Liam opened his eyes in panic. He was thrown away!
"Wha- what/ how>?" Ava! Ava used her strength to push Liam but!
"Ava! Run! Dodge! Getaway!" too late this time al. Roy didn't even realize that his target Liam had got away. The smirk like grin on his face disappeared (not for more than 1 second) Roy knew that he only has to kill them then... what is wrong with starting with Ava!
Liam was useless. Here, Liam, there was nothing Liam would do in the less time. That way shards for a person like Liam with the low agility to move like Ava or Roy at the monstrous speed they have.
"Woof!"
"Brook!" Liam cried.
"Huh?" Ava had closed her eyes when Roy was coming to attack but now she opened her eyes when Liam cried Brook happily.
Brook was biting Roy's face. Can you believe it? The face?! The face! Roy had stopped. He was not able to see anything then how can he still go and attack Ava? Only because he is IT doesn't mean that it can see even if the eyes are closed.
The system! It was in Roy's pocket!
"You dumb dog! I should have killed before only that would have been good!" Roy groaned. His diary and a gross hand reached for Brook. The smile on Liam's face started fading. Roy grabbed Brook –my 0his tail.
"Brook," Liam mumbled, he was not able to move although he was knowing what was going to just happen.
"Brook!" Liam screamed.
