Chapter 6 - The maskman

The night was dark and road was deserted. The moonlight was making some strange shapes on the road through surrounding trees. Which was making this road even more dangerous .From a short distance , a man was coming down the road with a bottle of wine in his hand , humming something."Hum, it's a road or a river , ha,ha," he was laughing drunk, a river flowed at a short distance , its water a silent song in this creepy night ."Today she went school, but tomorrow she won't be able to go ,I will not let her go " he put the bottle to his mouth and mumbled to himself. But the next moment his life stuck in his thoart, there was someone in front of him who just had landed from sky . He was a man of about six feet who wore a mask over his mouth , broad-breasted, pointed shoes, and a long leather coat with hoodie. He wore black half finger hands leather gloves , with a strange red mark on them. There were a two long scabbard on his back in cross position in which there were swords. On the arm and legs of his leather suit there were pointed razors. "Forgive me , Lord, forgive me " he said while he threw the wine bottle away and glass splashed all over the road . "As you wish " he said with cold voice , looking down on him. His mask was like that it hide the whole face except his lips ,and there was a strange mark on his long white neck.

He put his hand back and drew out swords from his back ,spinning it madly in this head. A trickle of blood escaped from his thoart and landed on maskman's lips , the man's head flew against nearby tree and fell down .A sea of blood flowed from his thoart. " You have to repay, the blood i gave you "he grabbed the body by foot and started dragging it ahead on road . In this quite night sound of corpse being dragged was an even more heart breaking scene. From short distance , an eagle came, who first sat on the tree branch and looked at head lying down , then came and sat on the arm of maskman . He left the corpse's foot and eased the eagle's beak "O, Typhon, he was weak , No , he was a human , so it was his fate " he started laughing like a madman and his eagle also started shouting.

When Aroxin opened her eyes she found herself on the bed ." I was on the bridge, then how did I come her ?" she said in surprise. There was sound of someone talking from outside. When she came out she was surprised to see. "How are you here?".
