Chapter 7 - Unexpected (Third person)

The girl gasps at the sight. . .

Noah head darted at the sound of swirling saliva and a deafening critter-like sound, his mop of hair swishing as he turned. A seven foot demon looking being stood before him, no skin just flesh shaped like a humans body yet no head. White gloop drips from its ankles and elbows its putrid texture of flesh smelling purely of stale, moldy boiled eggs, like the ones you get on the motorways on the way back from holiday.

". . .do we run" Noah goes cold while frantic shiver grow over his back.

". . .no. . .don't move. . .It senses movement" she says, standing completely still, knowing abit to much about this being. The host of nightmares steps closer, towering over them, making the two pre-teens look like dwarfs in the falling rain.

The girl, which Noah still didn't know the name of, nose started to bleed.

"…oh no" She says, terrified but not terrified of the beast.

It all goes black

Noah wakes up, his head banging and his eyes stinging but nothing could've prepared him for the sight that stood before him.

"I'm Kandy, by the way" The girl said warmly, but the only thing that wasn't happy about her expression was the blood streaked on her face, that didn't seem to be hers.

Noah slowly got up, the being (now slaughtered) laying down helplessly in his tracks but he doesn't dare ask what happened.

". . .I'm Noah"

"Basic. . .but okay" she says

"And you can talk?!" Noah says in disbelief, the subject changing so quickly from seeing a being that has probably never seen daylight been killed by a purple haired girl to now knowing she can talk. They ramble on, oblivious to the fact that Lucas and Ethan are stood behind them in disbelief.

"Ain't no way that lass just beat up whatever the hell that is!" Said Ethan his voice raised as he comes closer to the body.

"Innit?" Says Lucas.

"Oh, hey guys. This is Kandy" Noah says, secretly still concerned about the demon-like figure.

They drag the body to Lucas's garage, examining it curiously and scaredly.

"What in hell happened?!" said Lucas, concerned but fascinated by the situation.

"Yeah what happened Kandy?" said Noah, remembering Kandy knows something.

"Don't freak out. . ." says the girl, but everyone happened to get a chill up there spine while the stood over the dead flesh being. "He came from a land called 'Labyrinth'. . .a dangerous place. . .made only for cursed spirits and demonic tribes." Kandy continues.

"But how did you kill it?!" exclaimed Noah, his patience on thin ice.

Kandy sighs "I don't get payed enough for this. . ." She raises her hand and blue fire comes out of her finger tip. Everyone's eyes widen as they blurt out things like "What!", "That's so coo!", "Hold up?!" and ". . .that's insane".

The turquoise flame was like liquid osmium before it suddenly went out like blowing a candle out.
