Chereads / Running from Lucifer / Chapter 22 - Evil that surrounds her

Chapter 22 - Evil that surrounds her

"He took your powers?" Hannah asked taking a bite from the bread.

Nina nodded. "Listen there's no time to talk about that. I need to find a way out of here so we can leave. In the meantime, eat the food."

She walked to the door and opened it before leaving. Hannah continued eating the food and then she felt something in her mouth. It felt like human hair was inside her mouth.

She dropped the bread she was eating and went to the bathroom. Reaching there, she looked into the mirror and put her hand inside her mouth. She fetched out a long black hair from her mouth.

When Hannah thought the hair stopped coming out, she continued to draw out more and at a stage, it came out with thick blood.

Fear filled inside her eyes as she choked with the hair in her mouth. The sink was now filled with hair and it still kept coming out of her mouth.

"Ahh!" When she looked into the mirror, she saw Talon standing behind her. She looked at her back but he wasn't there. Her eyes widened with fear and when she looked back in the mirror, she saw Talon standing in front of her.

"Nina!" Hannah screamed. The hair was still coming out of her mouth and she began to stagger as she walked out of the bathroom. Turning her gaze to the room, she saw the paper she was drawing on burn up.

"Nina!" She was scared now.

Talon walked closer to her and she crawled away from him. When he caught her neck, he brought his tongue to her face.

"I will destroy you!" He yelled. Not just you!"

"Talon!" She screamed.

"Not just you but your little sister who went missing. I know of her." Talon smiled when he saw the fear in her eyes.

Hannah's eyes widened at the mention of her sister who had went missing for years without being seen. That was one of the reasons she got here.

"Don't!" Hannah said while choking. "Don't hurt her please."

"Let me in Hannah!" His voice was so loud and deep. "You know what I want!"

"I won't let you kill Nina! I know this isn't you!" Hannah said.

"Is there any point being worried for Nina when you should be worried for Willy." He said reminding her of the past.

Hannah's eyes closed and she saw her sister Willy who was just four holding her doll.

"Why did you stopped looking for me, Sister?" Willy said clutching her doll close to her chest.

"You allowed the monster to take me now I'm possessed." As the words left Willy's mouth, her doll she was holding snapped it's neck. It had blood all over it's face and it looked so terrifying.

"You are only using Willy to deceive me. Willy is not a bad person. Don't hurt her, please." She was crying and when she opened her eyes she felt a sharp pain at the back of her neck.

"What did you do to me?" Hannah asked rubbing her neck which had blood.

"I marked you as one of my disciples. Hahahaha!" He disappeared.

Meanwhile, Nina who was finding a way for them to escape, came across Sara in the corridor.

"Sara." She pulled her into a room and locked it.

"Your highness what is it?" Sara asked.

"Don't call me that." Nina gave her a warning look.

"Why? Is something wrong?" Sara asked.

"I don't belong here." Nina shook her head. "Please help me escape from here. Please."

"Your.... I mean Nina?" Sara gave her a questioning look.

"Please only you can help me out of here. Help me escape. Please." Nina was almost kneeling when Sara caught her.

"Don't do that. I will help you escape if that's what you want." Sara said before looking everywhere as if someone is watching them.

"But you must be careful. Now that you're married other demons would be after you. There is a rumour that the gate to hell is broken and dangerous demons are passing there to earth." Sara explained and Nina nodded.

"When you're ready you let me know." Sara bowed her head at the end.

"I'm fully ready. But I will need to leave with my friend who is a human."

"You brought a human here?" Sara's eyes widened.

"I think Lucifer already knows she's human." Nina said.

"I will be here waiting." Sara bowed her head again and Nina left.

When she opened the door, she saw Hannah gasping for air. She was on the ground lying.

"What happened to you?" Nina asked walking closer to her.

"Talon. He's here." Hannah was surprised that the blood and hair coming out of her mouth had vanished.

"What do you mean he's here?" Nina questioned.

"Why don't you believe me on everything I say? Look at this mark, he gave this to me. This is a devil sign." Hannah was now crying.

Nina looked carefully at the mark on Hannah's neck. "I think I have seen this mark on you during the possessing process."

Nina stood up and walked to the window. "Talon is already dead. I saw his body crumble into ashes and it disappeared."

"We need to leave immediately." She turned to Hannah.

"And I will need to visit a church when we reach the human world. Hopefully that would calm me down." Hannah stood up from the ground.

.....

The both of them went to meet Sara who made the sign of a portal on the wall.

"Be careful. You must know that you shouldn't include me in this act. I know anything." Sara warned and they nodded.

"Now go before someone catches us here."

They walked inside the portal and vanished from sight. They landed on the ground in front of a catholic church.

"We landed in the right place. I will need a priest who would cleanse me from any evil around me." Hannah stood up.

"You think a priest would be able to stop it?" Nina questioned.

"What other option do you have for me, then?! I am tired of you not believing a single word I say. I am surrounded with evil. Talon is the evil lurking me everywhere." She wiped the tears on her eyes and walked into the old church.

Nina looked at her for some time before following her. As soon as Hannah's feet touched the ground of the church, she felt something crawling underneath her skin like snake.

"What is happening to you?" Nina asked.

"The evil. Talon is here. Call the priest now!" Hannah yelled and it was then Nina believed.

She looked at her for a second seeing how bruises formed in her skin. Without waiting any longer, she ran inside the church. She saw the priest and some Nuns at the altar talking a few things.

When the priest saw her, he stood up immediately and walked to her.

"My friend. S.... She. I don't know what is happening to her." She knelt down immediately.

"Take her to me." The priest said and Nina nodded.

She walked to where Hannah was laying and her eyes widened upon seeing thick blood that covered her body.

"Evil surrounds her and we must cast it out immediately." The priest brought out the cross. Something was fishy about the cross and it didn't sit well with Nina.

It was an upside down cross.

"Hold this." The priest said, breaking her from her reverie. She collected the holy water and watched as they carried Hannah inside the church.

"Glad you brought her early. The evil that surrounds her would be casted immediately." The priest said as the Nuns tied Hannah against a chair with a chain.

"I WOULD FUCK ALL YOU NUNS TO OBLIVION!" Hannah yelled. It sounded like as if a male was talking.
