Chapter 10
At the north end of the Nirvana Delight's a black line stretched and weaved itself into the fabric of its building. It looked like extending veins. The faint sound of screams and the large scurry of footsteps came from outside the door. Cyrus who sat motionless in a meditative pose at the center of his bed to block all sound opened his eyes, he looked around his empty room till his eyes settled on the door.Cyrus reached into the black box and took out a golden crucifix which he wore on his neck. It heated against his skin. But not high enough to burn.The door to Cyrus's room opened and he walked out. The elevator lights to his left were blinking which meant it was currently in use. The hall was deserted but he could hear the screams and an unending mumble of various people trying to talk over the noise; Cyrus knelt and placed his ears on the floor. The sound was coming from below. He heard and felt hate, fear and panic through the floor but beneath all that there was another sound.

A loud hiss vibrated in his head. He raised both hands halfway but paused to keep the hand holding the rabbit foot in front of him. Dangling in the air because the thought of bringing it closer made his skin crawl with revolt. “I command thee by the light that weaves all space, say your name!” Cyrus said. The room vibrated and rocked, making a few debris fall from the ceiling.The impact rocked the bed and Cyrus is forced to take a step toward the edge of the bed where a ghost with gray-black energy coursing through its body crouches at the edge of the salt barrier.The spirit, a man dripping black blood with the markings of a missing oxygen mask, grinned. Its nose was cut out in a way that the inner bone showed with a mouth that lacked several teeth. The grin forced the taste of bile to the surface of Cyrus's tongue. It was that disgusting.Arnorld,” it said, calling its own name. The word drifted into the air and settled. It reached out at lightning speed to grab Cyrus but an invi

Arnorld resisted with all his strength but his bones cracked and broke as Cyrus twisted his arm.  Cyrus' legs dropped to the floor, the bones cracking but he did not feel the pain. He stood upright. Each step taken was bloody. His black eyes stared at Arnold's widened gaze.  Arnold tried pulling his arm from Cyrus's grip but it did not move an inch. “You're possessed,” Arnold said. “How's that possible? What're you?” Cyrus ignored the question and kept staring.  Arnold spinned the room and tilted the space but neither of them fell. Even upside down they stood unaffected. “You pest,” Arnold called and squeezed Cyrus' neck with his greatest strength. It did not bulge. Cyrus raised his good hand and broke off each finger on his neck; one by one. Arnold shrieked in fear.  Cyrus laughed at Arnold's pain. The

Chapter 13 Frozen zombies.
Anderson and Cyrus, running side by side with six other armed men, made their way to a modified black hilux that sat on a pound of snow. “What's with the cold? I didn't know it's that time of the year.” Cyrus asked over the bizarre weather.  “It isn't,” Anderson replied. “it just started to snow in this city two weeks ago at the time of her disappearance.”  “It's Tyla.”  “What?”  “Her name is Tyla, the mother of my child.” “Oh,” Anderson said and relaxed into his seat. Cyrus glared at him. “ Sorry about that. Let's just say we're all on edge. Okay?”  They passed a signboard that displayed a welcome sign. The name of the town and location were obscured in thick ice.  “Where are we?”

BANG, BANG, BANG Colbert fired backward without looking. They were all highly trained, so at their mad rush, they coordinated effectively. The force from the shot knocked four freed ice men to the ground, but they stood up, unharmed. Winced in a loud pitch that sounded like a horn and started dashing toward them. The sound of cracking ice tripled. “Three up ahead, behind the snow, on our right,” Hatie said. She was the medium in their team so her senses are higher than most. Cyrus didn't doubt her statement. “Shit,” Cyrus said. “Selene, do something about them. Bennie, back her up and Jude beeline for a car once we're clear. Ruth and Hatie follow him.” They all nodded and separated in a way that permitted them the ability to carry out the order. “Our guns are inefficient. I've tried all the bullet types we've in store. Sliver is useless. Iron only slows them down by a fraction.”Colbert stated while strapping in more iron bullets.“Everyone switch to iron!” Cyrus said. They a

THE RATE AT which the flames poured out to the surrounding area, spiking the temperature from zero degrees to a range above boiling point. Each iceman close to them was on fire and melted from the heat that licked at them like they were in a furnace. “Run” Selene said. Most of the icemen obstructing their path were gone, but the spell was not strong enough to finish up all of them. Cyrus glanced at the body of Jude as they made their escape. The icemen were not chasing instead; they gathered Jude’s body. “What do they want to do?” Jude asked his teammates. Selene, who was leading, felt like dropping to the ground for a nap. Each of the team took a rest and watched. The ice men bent down and started ripping Jones apart, each one tore at his limbs and splattered his inside. Once they were done, they gathered the body while holding hands together. John’s eyes widened. A hand shot up from the ground and pulled the rest of its body out of the ground. Members of the teammates gasped. I
