Chapter 7 - THE ONE IN YELLOW

Knock, knock, knock

Leo and Alex heard knocks on the door, the two looked at each other in question Alex waved his hand to Leo signaturing for Leo to go get the door, he shrugged then went to the door.

Leo walked to the oak door there were no peephole to look through, Leo used his aqua vision, with this ability he can see everything that is made from water. Leo saw the frame of a girl she seemed to be harmless Leo opened the door he saw a girl with light brown hair that was in a bun with ember eyes her Bottom lips were full as well her skin was white, she had a plate covered with foil in her hands she looked at Leo with a shocked and confused look.

"Who are you ..." she said her voice was soft and sweet Leo checks turned a bright red.

'She is so cute .... wait is she dating Alex?' Leo added inwardly he tried his best to not flirt with her, Leo tried to speak but he heard Alexs's voice "who is it? "Alex said his voice cracked again "Damit."

"Alex are you ok?" Audery said her face contorted to a worried look; Alex heard her voice 'Audery? why is she here?'

[maybe she wants some alone time with you?] bell said, his voice sounded as if he was trying to hold back his laughter.

Alex changed his clothes then he placed the book on the desk, he went to the door he saw Audery with a plate covered in foil in her hands.

"You didn't come over last night and I was too busy to check up on you." Audery said, her demeanor seemed to be one of angry, but it changed to one of relief, Leo walked away from the doorway he seemed to be pissed but he didn't say anything he walked into the living room it was clean there was a coffee table right Infront of the couch Leo looked to the door where Alex and Audery are he sighed.

"Here, I brought some food for you, we can talk about you not coming over later, the thing I want to talk about now is .... who is that guy?" Audery whispered, Alex brought Audery into his room the windows were opened Audrey looked out she saw the street and the people walking by, she saw the trees yellowish color, she saw the cars moving below and above.

"So that guy... His name is Leo Hes a friend we work at the same place."

"Then how come I never met him?"

"thats because he doesn't go to the same school we do."

"Then what school does he goes to?"

"I don't know and what's with these questions? Hes here because I passed out at work, so he brought me home " Alex said.

'Is she jealous that Leo got to stay here and not her?'

[maybe or Shes just worried that Leo might have forced you to make him stay or it's something spicy]

Alex thoughts turn to that of ways to kill Leo, but he managed to calm himself down.

"We are just friends ok" ale said he wanted to purge the thought of him being together with Leo.

"Thanks for the food ... I will be shopping later on do you wanna join me?" Alex asked he looked into her eyes for an answer, she replied with "what about Leo? is he just gonna stay here? what kind of 'friend' would you be?" she said, Alex sighed inwardly then went to the living room to ask Leo if he wanted to join "sure " Leo said he had a wide grin on his face.

...

before they had left Alex ate the food that Audery had brought for him, he gave none of it to Leo, the two walked to the Dassi shopping district it was a street that was just stores filled of many things.

you could buy it went on to a mile, Dassi street was one hour and Thirty minutes away from his apartment, while Alex, Audery and Leo were walking Leo and Audery talked a lot Alex also joined the

three, they talked about many things but before they knew it, they were already at Dassi street Alex saw a lot of stores with a small blue orb in the front of the store showing holograms to pass Byers some.

stayed to look at them while others walked away, Alex was one of the people that avoid it he then found himself in a medium sized deli there were fruits and vegetables placed around a large tray it.

was placed in the middle, the casher was up front, Alex walked around in the store there was a clear fridge filled with meat the others were filled with eggs and milk they were sold at a cheap

price 5 pounds for 2 there was currently a big sale was going on if you bought two you would get a third one free, he picked up the things he needed then went to the front the ring it up while he was checking out he saw Leo and Audery talking together outside they seemed to be happy Alex smiled then waved to them, the two waved back, Alex turned around, as he waited he saw a clown mask

that was red the curves around the mask were yellow it had a blue tear under its left eye the more Alex looked at it the more fear he felt as he slowly looked away from it, he felt as though something

was wrong he looked to the mask again it came to life tears of blood flowed out of its eyes Alex heard a blood cradling Laugh that almost burst his ear drums he looked to Leo and Audery to see

if they were ok "what the hell is going on" alex said as he grith hes teeth the pain in his ears felt as though he would past out Alex used all of hes strenght to get out of the store when he got out he

did not see the sunny sky he saw groups of people being hung by an invisible string in the air, it seemed as though that string has being going on forever

[that mask... it must have something to do with this] bell said his voiced seemed to be serious.

Alex looked around for Audery, but he didn't see her his eyes turned watery the scent in the air changed it smelled as if someone left out a body to Roth of days in the hot sun Alex fell to the

ground his nose was bleeding Alex felt something walking up to him he tried to get up but he couldnt

"Put this on" the voice was Leos Alex looked up Leo was wearing a blue button up shirt with black pants he made a black half mask there were no mask on his face Alex grabbed it either way he needed to live

"what's happening" Alex said as he got up off of the ground.

"We have been trapped by a corrupted artifact-an artifact is created when a spirit of unknow power tries to descend through other means, by doing this they have corrupted many things such as cores and items that have spirituality, you should learn this in a few days when that time period is up don't worry boss told me" Leo said he looked around the same as Alex did.

"To escape this place, we have to find the person that trapped us here. "

"Where is Audery?" Alex said.

"She must be as trapped as we are the people above us seem to not have awakened cores so by my guess Shes probably being held somewhere " Leo said as he ran his fingers through his hair.

the two started to walk down the street it was filled of a thick white fog that blacked out some of the light Alex looked into the thick fog he saw a person with a clown mask, the clown was followed

by an entire crowd of other clowns of different weights and Hight Leo and Alex stopped in place the clown looked at the two with a wide grin on their face the front clown had a card in its hand the

clown threw it, the card wasn't aiming for anyone the card cut through one of the large tick steel streetlamps the card sliced through it the lamp fell into two pieces Leo and Alexs Eyes were opened

up in fear as they turned to run they saw a man dressed in full yellow with a hood over his head , he opened his mouth then said "welcome to your hell" the man's face changed to a huge grin he then snaped his fingers Alex head split open blood sprayed up into the air he tried to yell out in pain but nothing happened his body fell to the floor Leo had a dumbfounded look ' w-what the f#$k did he do to Alex ' Leo stepped back in fear the moment he did that he felt something pierced through his stomach, but nothing went through, it was a large hole that appeared, it went up to his face a tear fell down his check his body clasped over blood Sprung out followed with some poop that mixed in with it.

"it's not over yet" the man's voice boomed he snaped his finger.

Leo and Alex were ok they were at the entrance to Dassi street the two looked at each other, beads of cold sweat flowed down their faces flowed of tears that started to flow down their eyes.

"Who was that man in yellow " Alex said to Leo , he didn't answer he felt up his stomach all the way up to his head, tears still kept following Leo and Alex dropped to the floor "if you guys aren't feeling well I'll go get some help " Audery went over to one of the guards that was near the outside of the entrance before she knew it her head was off her shoulders then the guard that was next to her said "it's not over" the entire crowd turned to them they repeated the same words

"its not over"

"its not over"

"its not over"

"its not over"

"its not over"

"its not over"

"its not over"

Alex and Leos head burst open slowly down the middle the two screamed in pain, it felt as though someone had bashed their head with a car over and over they cried out then they heard it agian

"its not over"
