Chapter 1 - 1

Yet another boring day in this world, she thought as she walked on the sidewalk on her way home from work. Her eyes darted around the antic shops that were set to attract tourists coming to see the magnificent brilliant architectural minds that build the first ever Vibranium Castle. The town was always flooded with people from all over the world wanting to see the wonder as the origin to the rare metal is still a mystery. A beach ball captured her eye and an idea came to her like a revelation. She felt her body cells jumping around in excitement, like she just found the solution to hunger. But no, she had the perfect idea to introduce some zeal into her life. She even hopped onto a taxi . Ideas filled her mind almost overwhelming, after a while she had made up her mind on her destination.

"Are you sure about this, isn't it a bit impulsive?" Charles inquired looking at her younger sister busy adjusting the sling of her leather bag securely on her shoulder. The floral dress she wore was lightly being swirled by the wind. Her raven hair was pulled to a ponytail. "I'll be impulsive if I don't go," Sarah spoke. "Its just for two weeks and I really need a break . Charles, I'm like a zombie work, home, work then home again .I'm tired..." He cut her off, "Ok I understand just be careful, there's a lot..." She knew the ending of this statement. "Bad people who love hurting others, " she helped him finish. He smiled and hugged her goodbye. He slid his hands into the black trench coat that he wore, underneath he was in a white polo shirt paired with faded denim jeans, his dyed ash grey hair was his most noticeable feature. She pulled her suitcase into the sliding doors of the airport. She read the large imprints on the large screen, 'DEPARTURES' With a final sigh she walked in.

Charles watched her sister walk in, and he felt pain in his heart like he was about to feed her to lions. Just then his phone rang, "She's headed your way." He spoke then the line went dead.

" Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is your captain speaking, we are currently cruising at an altitude of 1200m above sea level. We will be landing shortly in Geneva airport, Geneva Switzerland. The temperature outside is 19 degrees celsius, dress warmly. The GMT time is 2030hrs. Please fasten your seatbelts as we descend. Once again thank you for flying Pacific Air, and welcome to Geneva . I hope you enjoy your stay. My name is Omar Diego, and our co-pilot is Amber baker.. " The intercom went off with a soft chime. What we are the chances that this was the same Amber from college . The Amber she knew was a med student, so probably a nurse. She brushed it off and nervously buckled up waiting for the plane to land. The plane touched down and they went directly to clear with immigration. A minivan was waiting for her outside together with some other tourists and they took off to Crest hotel.

"I didn't do it, " She protested, her mind shaken. This was supposed to be a great vacation, not .Her queen sized bed, the white sheets were now crimson, a human body was lying there dead faced down ,his limbs were torn apart, there were deep claw marks on his back. A large bite mark on his neck, like a beast bite and a large chuck of meat was missing, his clothes were torn apart . His head had been hit by something hard, gruesome , the sight was. " I didn't . . . ." The man behind her stood at six'two feet his expressions were neutral. "Well who did? Sarah. I need you to be straight with me," he asked. "I don't know we were together, " then something inside her snapped, "You think I did this, . . ." she asked on edge. Tears were on the brim of her eyes threatening to fall. He engulfed her in his arms. "I'm going to find out who did this, " he reassured, coz he was sure where to look first. Those savages were out.
