Chereads / UMBRA OF MY STAR / Chapter 2 - Prologue

Chapter 2 - Prologue

"SEE MY CREATION, ALL OF YOU SEE MY CREATION, HAAA HAAA, I HAVE DONE IT, I-"

A hooded person in a flash appeared at the back of blabbering man in white coat.

"Do you think you have done this by yourself, you was just an empty vessel to fulfill my wish, just a puppet!" giggling said to him. Even though silhouette was of adult its creepy laughter was of child.

"What do you think your mind alone could have done this miracle, this is my hard word! I will show this world --"

Bang

All the glass crashed down to the ground.

"you promised its good for humanity, and for my child, my child whose body you possess. I-I have done every thing you have asked, as you promised give her back.'' he grabbed the the hooded cape and flanged off the silhouette revealing a waned soulless body with glowing pale emerald eyes.

Hee-hee-hee-HA-HAAAAAA

''but promises are meant to be broken'' that child's bruised lip turned in smirk and with full force it collapsed on the heap of shattered glass on the floor.

The scene minimized into a small screen and the man who was viewing the whole thing in the mobile screen with wide eyes trembled down on the floor.

The mobile was parceled in the lab and it was already on when he found it in his guard office.

Sometimes, when we thought that we are walking so aimlessly, we were actually walking on the road which end on the destination we always desire, but never expected to became reality. So might say that it is law of attraction but to them it was like their fate.

But walking up always come with the fear of crumbling of road and falling down. He never thought that he would be trapped in the messy world of those mighty people.

However he wasn't a stupid person he lifted his trembling hands and search for his phone in his pocket, he pulled it out and tries to dial main office number with trembling fingers.

"ah! What wa-the the number, what wa- Yeah! It was xxxxxxx"

"the number you have dialed is invalid"

"shit! shit! shit!"

Bang

And the small pieces of broken glass fall near his feet. The lab in which he worked was a underwater lab which was made up of glass from wall to roof.

As a security guard it was his responsibility to safeguard the researchers and this delicate lab.

"shit! Another problem"

He rotate his eyes and to look for the gun then he rushed out from the office securing gun in his hand. He look here and therefor the intruder but found none as if it was him who broke he glass.

He search for two three hours but found none. Today really was his unlucky day he thought as he was alone guarding lab. The lab was almost abundant as it was closing down tomorrow when his big boss formally settle his business today after the grand press conference.

He walk back to his office and turn on the tv to ease his mind. The TV was showing arrival of his boss in the entrance of the venue. His vision fall on the moblie phone he left behind.

"Ah! Number, I remember it now it was-" and he dialed a new number again.

" the number you have dialed is out of coverage area"

"Oh! Right, like whole secretarial office gone out of this damn area."

The shiver that his spine has forgotten returned again. He dialed more numbers but no avail and same answer.

"what is happening, someone pickup the phone, pickup!"

The turned his eyes towards the Tv, the volume was increased by itself he grabbed the remote and press the decrease button, however it didn't decreased a bit. He tried again but again bad luck.

He stood up from the chair and walk towards the tv.

"Manually, Manually, where is the manual button."

He was searching for manual button to decrease the volume which was trying to tear down his ears. He found the button and moved his finger to press it but paused as he heard a screeching sound much louder than that of Tv.

"Damn! Now ghosts are playing hide and seek with me." as there was no silhouette of the culprit nor the object that caused through the glass wall.

"This damn place really making me sick, I really should get out of this place."

He stepped backward and turned around to leave the place but a hand grabbed his hair and slammed his head on the wall.

Soft mouth whistling sound was coming from the mouth of stranger.

The security man pressed his dizzy head with hand but his hand got sticky and wet. He turned his eyelids but everything was in haze, he moved his hand in front of his eyes and they were red.

He immediately searched for the gun in his back pocket and and aim at the direction of attacker.

Nobody was there, a familiar shiver ran down through his spine. On his instincts he ran towards the door but again someone grabbed him and slammed him on the TV screen.

The man's body slipped from from the bloody broken screen.

Thump

"you should not see what you don't mean to be" the hooded figure said and grabbed the phone of guard and slide into his pocket. He walked on the the broken glass drenched in red blood and disappeared in the lab.

"Mr Ahuja is entering the venue. Security is very tight. A lost son finally returned back to his home-" the broken TV with loud volume still working working above the fresh dead body.
