Chapter 10

In 1982 an alien's space ship landed somewhere on this planet.At first humans refused to accept the aliens in their midst due to the fear that they're going to eliminate and wipe all human race and take over the earth from them turning them into slaves,but their mindset changed when an alien saved a dying young girl diagnosed with a heart disease with a substance brought from their space ship and since then humans and aliens lived together in peace.

Few years later in 1988,it was discovered that the aliens are planning to exterminate and supplant human life by taking over the planet from them,discovering their secret humans wage war against the aliens but were defeated brutally because they don't have the strength to fight the aliens.Some part of the world who fought against them were therefore enslaved while the rest were busy strategizing on how to defeat and send the aliens out of their planet.

A scientist named Alverto Cassiero created a chemical substance which he named A13.A13 as it is called consist of three different strong elements.

A13 although very harmful can make a human muscle more stronger,makes the body impenetrable and lastly makes humans more faster if injected.A13 was approved by the government after it was tested and confirmed.

Therefore with the help of A13 humans were able to defeat and send the aliens out of the planet never to return no more,but the worst happened when the substance begins to show it's aftereffect on the body of the injected special soldiers,the aftereffect led to the death of all the special soldiers that were injected.

Alverto was therefore arrested and killed by the government and this got his mother infuriated.Maria Cassiero who was Alverto's mother went to seek help from a demon called Diemon who was banned from hell for treason to help her destroy the people that killed her son.

Diemon promised to help her if only she'll make a pledge to sacrifice the dearest person to her every decade to him.Maria accepted the offer and a tattoo was drawn on the back of her neck as a convenant between them.She later sacrificed Alverto's younger brother to him.Diemon kept his promise and avenged Alverto's death for Maria.

Maria therefore passed the legacy on to her remaining kids who always sacrifice their loved ones to Diemon every decade.

Some greedy politicians later on came to Diemon to seek power from him he made the same pledge with them and the tattoo drawn will always show up at the back of the neck of the people that will be sacrificed to him before they die,their body always change and the tattoo will disappear after they are dead.

The most shocking part is that if the people that ought to make the sacrifice dies before fulfilling their pledge Diemon will not allow their soul to rest until they have made the sacrifice,so the soul of this people will torment their prey until they are offered as a sacrifice to him.

Some years after a monk by the name Chang Cheng tricked Diemon and cast a spell on him which turned him into a statue just to save his student,he was therefore buried in a cave deep in the forest where no man can find him.Unfortunately Diemon was released from the spell some days ago by a doctor called Derek who's blinded by his ambition to rule the world.

"How did you get to know all this secret George?".Blake asked after George finished his story.

"My grandfather was a soul hunter".George answered.

"Soul hunter?.I don't get you".Blake shrugged.

"He hunt souls that failed to fulfill Diemon's pledge".George replied.

"So what's the meaning of the Greek word written there".Blake asked.

"It says "Death is upon us".George answered.

"I think I now understand why the patient and my father died mysteriously.What is his picture doing here?".Blake asked pointing at a picture on the wall.

"You mean Dr Paige?".George asked.

"Dr Paige?,is he not a psychologist?".Blake asked again.

"He's a doctor and I've been searching for him for a while now".George answered.

"Searching for him?,why?".

"He's one of Dr Derek's messenger and Derek now works for Diemon".George replied.

"Oh my God what have I done?.I need to go now George I've been deceived".Blake said heading out.

"Deceived?,how Blake?".George asked looking bewildered.

"I was deceived that he's a psychologist,he's with my daughter George".Blake said.

               *                     *                     *

Dr Paige who disguised himself as a psychologist smiled at Blake's stupidity as she allowed her daughter to be taken away by his men,they have their plan schemed out already.Diemon is already growing impatient because it seems Blake's grandfather is feeling reluctant to sacrifice his grandchild.

Paige handed Sarah over to Dr Derek who locked her up in a dungeon faraway from the city where no one can see or hear her scream.He left two hefty men at the entrance as watchmen.He's waiting for the day set to sacrifice her to Diemon,but something got him worried,he didn't see any tattoo at the back of Sarah's neck.

"Why has she not gotten the tattoo yet?,I don't know why I'm having the feeling that she's not the chosen one".Derek mumbled within himself.

Derek moved out of town after abducting Sarah.He relocated to where no one can find him promising to return on the day of the sacrifice which is in a month's time.

Jasmine and her friends are finding it so difficult to cope without Sarah around.It's been three days already and yet there's no news about Sarah's recovery.Gigs kept stealing a glance at Jasmine to be sure she's okay.After lectures Isabella left the class angrily and Bryan ran after her to know what's wrong with her.

"Isabella....what's wrong with you?.Why are you leaving without saying goodbye".Bryan asked looking worried.

"I'm alright.I just wanna be alone".Isabella answered.

"I know you're worried about Sarah,we all are but you shouldn't be acting strange because of that".Bryan said.

"I'm getting pissed off Bryan.Sarah is on the sick bed in the hospital and we've got nothing to do about it.I'm fucking pissed off".Isabella replied sobbing.

"C'mon Isabelle......I'm sure she's gonna be alright".Bryan assured her.

Gigs and Jasmine soon joined them and they met Isabella weeping uncontrollably.

"Why are you crying Isabelle?".Gigs asked.

"She's worried about Sarah".Bryan answered.

"I'm totally fed up too,we need to do something".Jasmine said.

"What can we possibly do?.We are still kids,the doctors are trying their best to help her".Gigs said.

"We're still kids,but being kids doesn't mean we ain't smart.I suggest we check on Sarah in the hospital again".Jasmine said.

"That's a nice idea Jasmine and I support it".Isabella replied.

"Alright......when are we leaving?".Bryan asked.

"We're leaving now"Isabella answered heading towards the exit door and the rest followed her.

They got to the hospital and met a woman at the reception.The woman informed them Sarah have been moved to a psychiatric hospital.

"She's what?.Are you sure of what you're saying?".Gigs asked standing with his mouth agape.

"Yeah....she was moved two days ago by a psychologist".The nurse answered.

"Oh my God.....I can't believe this is happening to Sarah".Isabella said as she sat down on one of the chairs at the reception sobbing.

"Thank you nurse and what about her parents?".Byran asked.

"Yeah........What about her parents?.Are they aware of that?".Gigs cuts in.

"Yeah...her mother gave her consent".The nurse replied.

The kids were about to leave when Blake entered the hospital with a man who had a hood on.They went straight to the CEO's office without speaking with anyone.

"Who is that?".Bryan asked looking surprised.

"Sarah's uncle I guess".Jasmine answered starring at Blake and the man as they walked away.

"I don't remember Sarah mentioning she's got an uncle".Gigs said.

"Then who could that be?".Bryan asked again.

"We've got to find out".Gigs said trying to walk towards the stairs.

"No Gigs we can't just go there?.We need to plan".Jasmine replied drawing him back.

"I think I have a plan".Isabella said sounding bossy.
