Re: Time Stands Still At Midnight (Ciroton)

Looking down on the man who grabbed her, the half-demon scoffed at him before giving her answer. “Following you?” Aleena voiced. “That would be rude. I was merely going in the same direction you were.”

“Okay,” replied the man who picked himself off the road. “Why were you going in my direction?”

“It’s a free country. I can go any ****ing direction I please, thank you very much!” Cursed the young woman. Many heads turned at that sentence, obviously they were a very traditional bunch when it came to vulgar language. “What are you looking at?” Aleena snapped to the people who consequently broke their gaze and continued on with their various chores.

“Well, aren’t you being defensive,” said the man curtly.

She would not stand for this. Wheeling on the spot she looked him straight in the eye and said to him, “I’m not being defensive. Now, leave me alone, you jerk!” With that, she turned her back to him and continued on to the place the waiter mentioned to her. Honestly, the nerve of some people, thought the lunar demon as she stormed past the crowd and away from the Nephilim.

Coming to the sign that said Amity Drive, she stopped at the intersection and looked down the street’s length. It would be stupid to go now, it’s only 1:00pm, she thought. I’ll go back to my hotel, then come back later tonight. With her plan set, the young woman continued through the intersection to find some way to kill the time until the clock struck eleven.

For the remainder of the day, the young lunar demon went around town, taking in all the sights this small town had to offer. Stepping in a shop occasionally, she managed to buy a new Alternator for her Plymouth and a few odds and ends for herself. After her dinner back at the café, she returned to her hotel where she spent the remainder of the time watching television and reading a book she brought with her.

Sitting in a red, cloth armchair, the half demon sat engrossed in her book. The fireplace in her room set the scene for her present chapter marvelously as she turned another page. However, her watch began to beep, signaling the time was 11:00pm, one hour away from the appearance of the strange house. Sighing, she put the book on the nightstand, ready to finish when she was done with the house. Quietly, she opened her room’s door, walked down the carpeted stairs, and out the front door.

Everything lay cloaked in a shroud of darkness as she made her way to Amity Drive. Even the streetlights had their lights extinguished, offering no help to any nighttime travelers such as herself. However, none were to be found as Aleena made her way to the strange house, making for a very eerie atmosphere on the entrenched road.

Finally coming to the street, she could not help but notice that no other buildings resided on it except for the supposedly vanishing manor. The brick beneath her feet quickly shifted to sand and dirt, tiles on the edge cracked and breaking over time. Slowly turning more into a trail then a road, the half-demon worked her way up the road as it wound its way up to the top of the hill where the manor likely resided.
