Chapter 16: New him

Carly was not sure who she could call for help, she panicked and almost got caught by the demons who had kidnapped Peter.

She knew she had to stay away from peter if she wants to save him and she knew she had to stay with him to be sure that they did not kill him and to be able to track them down.

She went with her first gut, sticking with peter, she was prepared to follow them till they fall asleep and when the demons was asleep she would gently pause time and free Peter.

Night falls and her plans was going as planned, Peter was left in the open, he was also not watched as the demons were in the cave warming up around the fire and getting ready to relax.

“Let’s wait till they fall asleep” a voice in her head said gently

“It would be a fast grab and snatch, they would not know I was here and the time is on my side” she whispered to herself to clear her doubts.

“Ok let’s dances” she said as she stopped time, it was cool to be back to stopping time again, she remembered she only stopped time just to check out fine boys but now she was stopping time to save life’s

She walked gently on the desert sand as she bounced over to were Peter was. She could have hurriedly lose his ropes but what was the rush, time was paused.

She took her time as she slowly lose the knot , just when she was almost done, she heard movement in the bushes behind her and it got her amazed, it was not possible, when she freezes time, everything stays the same nothing change until she resumes time.

“What’s going on?” She asked her self as she looked around, she got up to take a peep in the direction of the cave when a huge punch hit her in the face, it sent her flying till she hit her back against a tree.

“Run!! Carly run!!” Was all the voices in her head could say. For the first time since she was eleven, all the voices in her head agreed on one thing to say.

She ran without out looking back,

“I thought I was the most dangerous creature just like grandma would say, turned out there is something more stronger than us”

“Wow that punch hits different” the voice in her said as she rubbed her face which was swollen,

“We need help Carly, we can’t do this alone”

“Yeah that’s pretty obvious but it feels cool to be in a fight, I just love the way my blood pumps differently when I am scared to death, it looks like I was going to die but here we are” she said as she smiled to herself.

“Where are we starting from? Who are we tracking down first?”

“Let’s start with your crush, JAMES!!!” The voices in her head agreed again.

Carly new journey began, but she decided to take a short journey to her home first to show her grandma what she had become and asked what type of demons was stronger than her.

The home of Host was one of the worst place James had been too, he admit to it as he could not stop complaining about the place even after the managed to escape with no injury from the shadows.

“But what about the journey? The shadows are increasing day by day James”

“We all tried but it’s not possible to save humanity maybe what we need is truly destruction, the whole world need to be destroyed and has to be rebuilt” James said as he walked faster trying to avoid Alice reply to his statement.

“You know that’s been selfish, you can’t just wish destruction on all the humans, what happens to the innocent” she said as she walked faster after James

“We stand for the innocent remember that’s the main reason we agreed to go on this in the first place” she stopped him from walking further as she stood at his front

“Seriously yes we stood for the innocent when we were still innocent ourselves, now that we have seen a lot, I don’t think it’s possible to stand for them again”

“Seriously this is not the James I fell for, the guy I fell in love with would put the life of others before his”

“Well yeah I changed, hate me all you want, this is me now leave or deal with it” he said yelling at her face

“I don’t know how you expect me to be in this fucked up life and not to change, life fucked me up already it’s a mist I change” he said as he walked pass her

“I guess this is where we end our journey, I am going back to do the right thing, save the few people I can save”

“While me I head into heaven which is just few distance away, you can see it already not sure why you acting all up”

Janes made it to the city at the end of the earth, the heaven on earth. The place was just like they had described but there was no party.

James was really looking forward to it so he asked the guy are around,

“Party for you? You think you a hero, you no hero man. Look at you, you came back here empty handed. Where are the innocent you left to go save?”

“You don’t understand man, it’s hell out there and it’s a little better if they die out there, the earth needs cleaning.

The guards shakes his head in disgust as he walked away from his side. Since he was one of the young teenagers who went out of there way to save humanity just like the prophecy had said, the guards did not scan him, they allowed him in straight.

Sam and the little kid were still in the opposite room to the holies, he watched as James was part of the holy without even been scanned.

Sam reached out to the guards and demanded to have a word with James, he claimed to be one of his teammates. James was surprised to see he first him to heaven, he thought he was the only one and the first to get there,

“Since when have you been here?”

“It’s been few days now, get the two of us out of here man, they would kill us if the scan does not go right” Sam begged through the glass

“Hope you have not told anyone about what you saw outside?”

“That does not matter man, just help….”

“Help!!!! Help me” the cry for help came from James who was sitting right in front of Sam.

“Who are you?”

“I am James I guess” the shadow said as it laughed

“You going yo die here man, no one is helping you out”

“Hey!!!! There is a shadow in him, scan him !!” Sam screamed and hit the glass which was separating him from James.

“Hey sir calm down or we would be force to use the electric pole on you sir” the ghosts said as they rushed to hold Sam down but still he was still hitting the glass aggressively

“Shock him!” James screamed from the other side of the glass as he watched as Sam screamed and cried out begging for mercy.
