9 The Lady 2 (2/2)

”You can't leave! We're almost there you wanted to go to the town right?!” The women spoke with an insane growl.

”Not yet! We're almost there, it's just right down the hall!” She continued to speak, she stood up from the mutilated body of the woman the whole stomach and chest area had been carved out. Blood dripped off the knife and the face of the lady, her eyes were wide and looked deranged.

I refused to let her get near me, spinning on my heels I swing the spear in my hand forwards. She was slightly shocked by my movement. Thrusting the spear forward towards her, I wasn't fast enough to hit her dead in the chest. She managed to dodge and I only caught her in the arm, with the spear.

However, there wasn't much resistance in the least when I hit her in the arm. The arm actually came away. Sucking in a sharp breath, I move the spear back and look at the lady. Her arm was on the edge of my spear. In the blink of an eye, she was next to me, her hand surged forward plunging the knife towards my arm.

I tried to evade her reach, but the knife was true and slide into my arm.

A scream rippled out from my mouth as she pressed forward driving the knife deep into my arm. Pain laced up through my arm, tears ran down my face. Bitting my lip, I turn and glare at her. She's got a deranged smile on her face, her tongue flicking out.

”Get off me, you bitch!” I scream dropping the spear in my right arm, I throw a punch towards her face. My arm connects with her nose, I hear a crack as she flung off my arm and towards the floor.

Thud.

Her body slides into the body of the woman, she's still missing the arm that I took off but she doesn't seem fazed at all.

Gritting my teeth, I grab the knife and rip it out of my arm.

”Ugh.” Throwing the knife down I turn to scope the spear up and turning running back towards the way that we'd just come. This time I dodge the debris that left scattered on the floor. Blood running down my left arm.

It hurts damn it really hurt. Turning my head I look back towards the lady, she's just picking herself off the ground. Her nose was broken, but she just grabs it with her hand that still there and breaks it back into place. A dark smile on her face.

”Shit!” I growl, jumping over a broken hospital cart.

I could see the four-way split coming up, urging my body forward, I jump towards the left entrance. That area is dimly lite, but I don't let it bother me. Taking off down the stretch of hallway, I move quickly, even climbing under a collapsed section of the hallway.

I ran for the only god knows how long, my lungs were burning from exhaustion.

”I think you lost her!” Jade spoke slowly, as I tripped over a large piece of rubble.

Pulling myself up from the ground, I keep going forward. I felt fear, I hadn't felt this much fear since the moment I'd arrived in this strange place. It was too strange, her arm had come off. But she hadn't even flinched at that. It was like she hadn't even felt it.

After running for a couple more minutes, I found a room that was empty. I slide into the room and take a couple deep breath, sweating was pouring down off of my face.

Sliding down a wall, I try to collect my thoughts. She wasn't human, that meant she wasn't a Player in the game. How had she known about the fact that I was looking for a town?

No. I shake my head, I didn't have time to dwell on the what if's of the situation. All I knew was that she was probably still looking for me. I don't know why she tries to take me to wherever. But I did know that she would take me by force if she had to or even kill me.

Twisting around I look at my arm, torrents of blood still pouring out of my wound. Grunting I pull myself up off the ground. This was a hospital there had to be something to clean this up with around me.
