WHISPERS
The sound of the knock at the door startled me. I slowly walked toward it and opened the door only allowing a slight opening for me to see who it was.
Ah, it was only Mrs. Grendor. Now what did she want and at such a late hour.
She squinted her eyes and tried pushing the door. What in the world was her problem? Why did she always try to “check” on what all of her neighbors were upto even past midnight?
I shook my head and asked, ‘To what do I owe the pleasure of this late visit, Mrs. Grendor?’ I stared at the old lady as she tried to take a better peek through the door and see what was behind me.
‘I thought I heard someone screaming in your home, Jason.’ The way she said this as if she was able to have seen exactly what happened a few hours ago right before the stroke of midnight.
Mrs. Grendor continued to push the front door. Did she really think she would be able to move past me? Uh, she needed to get back to her own place before....well...then again~ maybe I should just let her in.
I stepped to the side and opened the door to let her in. ‘Thank you, Jason.’ She said with a look of triumph in her eyes. ‘The pleaure is all mine,’ said I.
As soon as she walked right in front of me- I slammed my right fist at the base of her head. This sent the senior citizen tumbling onto the floor.
I bent closer to the ground and whispered to her, ‘You seem to like sticking your nose in my business, Mrs. Grendor. I guess I’ll let my friends from the other side deal with you.’
A portal opened below the old woman’s still body. She heard the sound of voices screaming, ringing, in her ears.
But she had been knocked out & as much as she wanted to open her eyes to fight Jason, she couldn’t. It was as if he had managed to stop the flow of her power through her body.
Mrs. Grendor fell through the portal. It was so dark, her spirit could tell because it still had some fight left. This was not over. She would find a way to get back to Irpth.
Meanwhile, Jason laughed and rose to his feet. He whistled as he went back to his kitchen. There he placed his hands on a thick book that had a cover made out of bones.
He closed his eyes and thought to himself, ‘It was time that he paid a visit to the Shadow Man.’
