The car screeched to a halt at a park, and excitedly, she came down. Ryan too followed, and she quickly pulled him by his arm towards a haunted house. Ryan blinked. Why would she want to go to a haunted house? It would be scary for her.
"Aria, why this place?" he asked her.
"I want to go in with you. Because... They'll be scared of you" she said.
"Scared of me?" he was confused "Why would they be scared of me?"
Arianna tiptoed and spoke in his ears. "You look scary, my demon prince" she whispered.
"I'm scary? Then why aren't you scared of me?" he asked, not smiling.
"You're not scary to me. But to them you are. Haven't you noticed that whenever we go out together, people always look at you...in fear....sometimes"
"Really? Everyone is still scared of me" he muttered to himself, but she heard. A slight smirk went up his face for a moment before they disappeared. "Ok, let's go" he pulled her in, and she smiled brightly. Ryan opened the door and it creaked loudly. They walked in slowly and the door shut loudly behind them. Ryan gulped down an invisible lump in his throat as he held Ari tightly. She also clung unto his arm...her guardian angel. The walked in slowly, Ryan's lower lips was between his teeth. They kept walking further but nothing appeared.
"A-aria, they're..no ghosts" surprisingly, Ryan stuttered.
"Try not to look scary" she told him, and Ryan gulped again. Biting his lips. He's trying not to look scary here! Why won't they show up?
As they kept walking farther inside, they both heard the sound of something falling from behind them, so they turned. They could hardly see a thing. They both faced forward, and the ghost appeared in front of them.
"Ahhh....." Ryan was the first to scream, falling to the floor with a loud thud. He crawled backwards, eyes wide, horror written over him. Arianna too was scared at that moment, but she doesn't understand why he was scared. The ghost crawled forward, and then a bloody hand grabbed his arm.
"Sh*t! Let go!" he screamed as he struggled to take his hand off. The ghost kept coming, and Ryan's heart almost raced out of his chest. "Aish!! Stay away from me you morons!"
Arianna stared in disbelief, wide-eyed. Why is he the one being scared? Ryan has never acted like this. He succeeded in pulling his hand away from the bloody hold and standing up to his feet. Then... zombies came.
"F**k!" he cursed out loud. He quickly took Ari's hand, "l-let's get out of here" they turned, but found out they were surrounded. "Sh*t!" he cursed out again. Hiding behind Arianna for... protection?
"R-ryan... what are you...."
"Oh f**k!" he cursed again as they reached them, and he kicked one of them. He kept throwing powerless kicks. Acting like a scaredy-cat here. This is not Ryan.
She stood, watching him him fight the zombies like he has never fought before, and he just wanted to survive. What is he doing? Suddenly, a zombie grabbed her. "Ah...let go of me" she screamed. Throughout the time she had been there, none troubled her. Now there are. She screamed again as they pushed her to the ground.
The air went cold, stuffy. A volcano erupted in a certain someone. His eyes burned with anger, they turned gold. Illuminating his face, that soon went scarred. His fangs and talons grew, hungry. Such guts they have to touch his birthday queen.
He growled, snarled loudly. His appearance was so horrifying, that the staffs who acted zombies fell to the floor that instant. In horror.
"How dare you?" he demanded, his voice wasn't normal. The devil was speaking. He took a step forward, and another. They shuddered backwards, but she stayed rooted to her spot. He lifted one up, his claws piercing through his skin. "What gave you the right to touch her?!"
"W-what are you?" One managed to ask.
"Your death" was his lethal reply.
The staffs in the control room tried turning on the light, but it was impossible. The lights failed, adding up to their horror.
"No one...has the right to touch my woman. To hurt my woman. I hate it, and now I just want to kill you. All of you"
"P-please, we're just doing our job." the staff pleaded.
"Really...." his head tilted to the side. "Hurting my woman was part of the job?"
The man was drenched in cold sweat. The other staffs managed to escape, leaving him as the scapegoat. To be feasted by the devil. Arianna just sat there on the floor, eyes and mouth wide open, dumbstruck. She could hardly form a word in her mouth.
"Please...I apologize"
"I don't forgive easily... especially when it has something to do with my woman" he lifted his hand and placed it on his chest, pushing his talons inside.
"Ah..." he squealed in pain, blood strolled out, and Ryan was only smirking.
"Ryan...." he heard her voice "That's enough. I'm not hurt...I'm fine" she said. His bloodlust eyes moved to her and immediately, he dropped the man. He curled himself up, shivering to his bones. Ryan's head whipped towards the door, and he quickly rushed to Arianna, lifted her up from the floor and holding her in his arms. Arianna felt a rush of cold and warm air, and then light shone on her face. She opened her eyes, and found them standing on a rock with a green sea below. The sky was bright blue and the air cool and relaxing. Where were they? And how did they get here?
