Anna kept running because the creature kept chasing her at high speed. The wet terrain made Anna slip several times—it hindered her escape.

Anna was so frightened that her mind began to think that maybe this was the end of her life, dying in the hands of a strange human being.

A loud bang from the back, makes Anna bounce right off pretty far. The body hit a tree hard, so Anna fell helplessly on the ground. She tried to get up and go back to running even though the whole body was hurting so much. Anna's been battered with just one blow from the creature.

The sight began to be obstructed by the heavy fog in front of her, until Anna fell into a small ravine in front of her. Anna's body rolled around freely, hitting the trees lying down. Anna's right leg was formed hard on a felled tree trunk until her body stopped at the bottom of a ravine about 20 meters deep.

Her body's used to being slammed. Anna still seems to be trying to get up despite her lack of strength. She wanted to see firsthand the creatures that pursued her until she was seriously injured.

"Who are you? Are you a vampire? A werewolf? Am I at a movie theater? You're not human, are you? I don't care if I end up dying in your hands, asshole! But tell me who you are!" Anna said fearlessly.

Suddenly the creature with a flash of lightning stood before Anna. That man's face frightened Anna so much and was desperate for her life. The fingers were so sharp it started grabbing Anna's face.

"You're so beautiful. But I don't care. I'll keep taking your heart with these sweet fingers …" he said while showing his sharp fingers in front of where Anna is.

It keeps trying to scare Anna for her fun. Slowly the man's hand began to approach Anna's chest, just where her heart was. Anna shed tears because she was sad to have to die this way. It's tragic.

Just before the sharp fingers tore Anna's shirt, which had closed its eyes, suddenly the creature bounced so far that it made three lies behind the creature fall.

Anna was immediately shocked by what had just happened. Despite her fears, Anna tried to open her eyes, looking at a man who asked for a brown sweater standing before her with a relaxed facial expression.

Anna's getting confused. How could a creature that almost killed him be knocked over by a man who looked like an ordinary human being.

"Looks like you're in the wrong place?"

The man's voice sounds so quiet.

The mysterious creature that had been thrown far enough back rose again, The figure suddenly flew at high speed towards the man still standing before Anna.

The creature immediately delivers an attack with lightning-fast force. Strangely, the man turned out to be much faster, avoiding the attack of the creature that fell on the ground.

The man's calmness lured the creature, which seemed to be getting angrier, until with both hands, he threw the tree at Anna at an unavoidable speed.

Exactly five fingers of the tree stopped right in front of Anna's face, which was already half conscious of being seriously injured. The man wearing the sweater managed to hold a large, lying rod that almost hit Anna.

"Huff … That was close."

The man immediately threw the tree at a considerable distance, and said, "Your opponent is not this woman, but me! Goddamn creatures!

The two mysterious men flew into each other to attack. Bloody battles are inevitable. Many trees were damaged by their impact. Anna can only stand still, seeing two humans with supernatural powers scream like in a movie.

Anna, who had been unable to focus her eyes slowly lost consciousness without knowing if the creature that had injured her was also injured by a counterattack from a strange man wearing a brown sweater.

Several wounds were seen on his face and hands, which also had long nails and both eyes were light blue. Even that sweater guy has sharp canines, unlike ordinary humans.

"Who are you?" Anna asked, sounding so weak.

"You're badly hurt,"

"Are you going to kill me too or eat me? "Just like that thing?" Anna asked, full of negative thoughts.

"Your words are rude to the man who saved your life. Relax, I don't like meat, let alone human flesh, full of sin!"

Anna was unable to regain consciousness, and she was unconscious again because she couldn't bear the pain of her left leg.

"She's hurt badly."

***

"Huh!"

Anna woke up from her long sleep. He seemed surprised as if he had just dreamed of something bad. A cold sweat poured down her forehead. Her face looked pale with multiple cuts near her cheekbones.

The events Anna had just experienced seemed so real. Fear still lingers strong from the futility of her dreams. She saw his leg covered in bandages, when he realized the pain was starting to feel.

"Huh… It hurts! So what's as long as it's real? Then where am I now?" asked Anna looking around.

A room filled with antiques, a bed used by a princess in a kingdom. Her curiosity made Anna slowly rise from her bed.

Walking out of the room, exactly 3 meters from where she stood, Anna saw a furnace that looked so beautiful as it entered the civilization of 1950. I don't know who owns this house. This house didn't stop her from being so astounded.

Anna walked close to waiting for the fireplace to appear to have started to go out. Anna doesn't know why the temperature in this room feels so cold. She threw some pieces of wood into the furnace.

"This house is very nice …" Anna said while looking back at every corner of the house. It sounded like a cat's voice from behind a glass door next to her right. Because the glass of that door looked blurry, Anna couldn't see more clearly what was out there.

Anna's curiosity moved her legs to walk close to the door which was so luminous. Her hand starts reaching for the door, Anna opens the door.

    "By the way, why is this area so quiet...?" asked Anna."Many of the residents of this area have left their homes," said the grandmother as she sat on one of the benches facing Anna who was slowly approaching her."Why?" asked Anna."There are more elderly residents in this area. They can't work or continue their restaurant business. You see for yourself, don't you? Many restaurants have closed down, as well as mine."Anna listened pensively to the heartbreaking stories of the elderly who had to continue their lives, but the recent pandemic had made it difficult for them to get up and continue their restaurants."So did they all move out of here?"
