CONNECT; Rise Of The Undead King

Another One

In the distant vision, Uche could see a young beautiful woman in her early twenties, lying on the floor with her face slightly going red, goosebumps all over her face and she seems to be letting out a silence scream that Uche couldn't hear. A strong hand wrapped around her neck and she struggle to breathe.

Pink like vein appeared all over her forehead and it look as if her large puppy eyes were about to pop out of her head, and still, the grip on her neck didn't even show a sign of loosing.

"That bastard...he's killing another person."

Uche muttered, his voice shaky.

The vision moves between the woman and a phone that lies beside her, ringing.

A couple minutes later, the woman's eyes shut, her bulging vein going back down, his lips quivering as it slowly close, and finally, life seeped away from her and the grip on her neck loosened, and the culprit stood up.

Or so, Uche thought the person did.

The angle of view changed, now he could see the woman's body from above, which means the person is now standing, then the view moves around, like the person is looking around their surroundings, and then, Uche saw something that made his heart race faster.

He almost fell from where he's sitting.

"What the hell?"

Through the vision, Uche could see that the killer is standing on the ceiling of a tall building, a very tall building, at least fifty storys tall. But that's not what surprised him, no that didn't surprise him at all, after all, the bastard can carry out his operation anywhere he likes.

Uche was surprised because from where the person was standing, from the bastard angle of view, Uche could see the silhouette of his own house, tiny like an ant.

He could clearly see his own house from the perspective of the killer, on the building. Uche didn't know why the sight was so sharp making the vision as clear as a day even from that tall building, but he doesn't want to think about it and didn't need to think about it.

Because, for him to be able see his own house through the vision, it only means the killer is nearby.

The vision hasn't stop there as the person started walking towards the dead woman's body, bend down and brought out a strange equipment that somehow looks like a pencil and within a minute, the symbol of a one sided hammer and a spanner was sketched on the woman's body, then Uche saw two hands grabbed the body and hurled it down, from the top of the building.

Uche wanted to shout, tell the bastard to stop, but he couldn't, it would be useless as he wouldn't hear him.

He imagine the body turning into a bloody pulp upon landing.

The bastard walk back, stared at the ringing phone for a while, before stepping on it with his polished brown shoe, then the vision faded away, immediately just as it had appeared, leaving Uche with only one thought on his mind.

"I need to get him today, he must be caught today."

He is sure the bastard is in his area, not too far from him.

"There's only one building in this area that is as tall as that."

He thought as he look through his window, before turning around and rushed out of his house.

A couple minutes later, Uche rushed into a tall building, completely made out of polished glass, the building stood several feets tall and he wasted no time rushing in, headed straight to the elevator that lead into the last floor, at the top.

He completely ignored the commotion that was happening outside the building as he already knew what the commotion was about. His gaze moved between all the descending elevator with single thought on his mind, as his elevator ascend.

"Brown shoe, pale skin and a black suit."

He saw the person's wrist and his suit, so he is his sure that with that three sign, he should be able to get him.

And so he did.

Just as his elevator got to the 45th building, he saw a young man stepped out of a descending elevator onto the long spacious lobby, and made a left turn.

Not just any young man though, but he saw a brown shoe, black suit and pale skin, but he failed to see the man's face as his back was facing him.

Immediately, Uche pressed on the large red button in the elevator, signaling for an emergency exit. The elevator stopped in an instant, and the door slid opened.

"Hey bastard, stop there."

Uche screamed as he run through the lobby, made a left turn following the man's trace, which led him into the male's toilet.

"Bastard, killer, stop there."

Uche shouted as he saw a door to one toilet closed, just as he entered. He ran towards the toilet and started banging the door furiously.

"Come out a here now before I call the cops, you think I didn't see you, huh? Killer."

He screamed, banging the door furiously, and a angry fat man stepped out, using the door to push him.

"Who's that bastard, have you lost your mind?"

The man shouted, frustrated.

Uche was surprised, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say but to stare the man down, examining his appearance, trying to make sure he made no mistake.

"Sorry, I saw the killer, the corpse art killer, I saw him."

Uche stuttered, not knowing what to say.

"You mean you're the killer?"

The man rushed out immediately, but Uche failed to hear his words as he spotted something from where he was sitting.

His single eye moves below, through the open space of the toilet door, then he saw a brown shoe with a black trouser and black socks.

"Bastard, I caught you."

Uche said as he slowly rise up, with a smile on his face.

"Snowflake, is it?"
