Chapter 472: A Deal With The Devil
One minute, I was talking to the guys and the next, the world shifted and I found myself in the middle of an abandoned warehouse.
While this had happened to me on more than one occasion, a wish so strong I was immediately called to it, never had the house just given up on me answering and put me where it wanted me to be.
Was there any way to unalive something that wasn’t really alive? Asking for a friend.
Looking around, I smelled more than saw the blood soaking into the floor beneath my feet. My face twisting into a sneer, I snapped my fingers and my favorite pair of Mary Janes shifted into black rainboots to compliment my black and white dress.
Seriously, I was not willing to ruin a pair of perfectly good shoes if I didn’t have to.
Bodies littered around me as small fires from a human settlement made me pause. I know it sounds bad, but I was actually surprised to see humans. Free range humans at that.
Soft coughing broke me from my thoughts as angry voices drew my attention away from the random humans and to the corner where my wishing girl was. Or, at least I could only assume it was my wishing girl.
My footsteps soft against the broken concrete floor, I made my way to where a man, a woman, and two kids were beating up a lump in the shadows.
"Fucking worthless," hiss the woman as she continued to rain blow after blow on the lump. In her hand was a cut down 2x4 with different shades of blood decorating one end. "You should know better than to come back without food. I bet you ate it all."
