person screaming

Read previous chapters of Infected here.

Hadera ran into the parking lot with blood dripping down her face. Her heart was beating so fast that it felt like it was about to burst from her chest. Her vivid illusions were getting out of hand.

She ran through the park cars trying to get to safety. What if those dogs come back? What is that dark shadow that keeps coming for her? She did not know what to make of this situation. She made her way past the exit door and out in the middle of the street.

The sunlight burned her eyes, she did not know what to do or where she should turn to. Just as she was ready to walk slowly down the sidewalk, she saw the dark figure waiting for her at the end of the street. There was no one around but her and this demonic demon that gave her a sinister look. His ghostly eyes pierced at Hadera as she stared at him in terror.

Hadera was ready to bolt the other way, once she hurriedly turned around, she hit hard to a body figure that was in front of her. She slowly backed away to see the demon right in front of her. His jagged teeth snarled at her as he grabbed her by the arms. His face was deathly pale, and his eyes were glossy pitched black. His hot breath oozed from his lips and a speck of inky black saliva came from his mouth. She screamed in horror as he started to lift her off the ground. A growl came deep from the demon’s throat. His cold claws started to dig deep into Hadera’s hot skin.

“You are coming with me…”

His voice was supernaturally deep and harsh as he dropped her to the ground hard. Hadera tried to get up and run but the demon immediately grabbed her by the hair. He dragged her by the hair as she started to kick and scream into the air. The demonic creature made a motion with his free hand and opened a portal that was visible in midair. The last thing that was heard in the distance was Hadera’s screams.
