Chapter 22
It was winter on this side of the entities realm. The way landscapes changed always blew my mind. I had been in the realm for 8 months and so much has happened.
My thoughts would wander, wondering what life would have been like at the compound if what happened didn't occur. I check the map again as Leon drove this time. The road was covered in snow. It wouldn't be long till we would need to trek on foot.
After Leon found me, he took me back to the Blood Moon Cult. It was an organization run by Mikaela and Sable. I never got much information about them but they helped me and they would have my back if I ever came across Margo. They could dabble in magic. Unlike other survivors they had methods that were fail proof so far. I knew that what ever Margo had done 6 months ago, she would deny them. She wanted to be me for some weird reason.
Mikaela had given me these herbal potions that I could take for my nightmares. They suspected I was connected to the entity. Sable and Mikaela were still trying to find that out even now. I had been given the opportunity to better myself and I needed it most of all. I wasn't a damsel in distress anymore. The jeep bumped and the front tire dipped.
"Shit," Leon looked out his window as he tried to get the car to go. The back tires were spinning too. We had made it half way up into the mountains. It wasn't going to be possible to keep going by car at this point. "Looks like we have clocked out of using this ride. Let's unload our snowshoes and the rest of the gear." Turning the engine off, Leon exits the jeep. I follow suit. I sling my bag on once my snowshoes were attached to my boots. I grab the gun Leon passed me and slipped it into its holster. I double check my large knife to make sure it was still in its holster. Check! Everything was good on my end. My big winter jacket was clipped together at the front but not zipped up. I was overheating in the jeep and needed to get some cold air.
Leon locked up the jeep and we started our journey. With the map in hand Leon got us to the cabin. The snowshoes helped immensely as the road was thickly covered. The cabin was about a half a days walk on foot from the jeep so when we got there the snow started to fall and the wind seemed to pick up. We would have a blizzard on us soon enough. Handing me one of the large paint markers Leon says.
"Once you have the perimeter boon sigils up the place will be protected from outside trouble. I'll search the inside and make sure it's all clear."
"Alright, sounds good." I drop my bag and snowshoes with Leon and move to the North, west, south, and east sides of the property. One in each direction. Mikaela had concocted this spell. I pull my hood up as the wind blew again. It was making my ears hurt from the cooler temperatures. As I had just finished placing the last sigil on the west side I heard something. I scan the tree line but I don't see anyone. Quickly putting the marker in my pocket I start to head back to the cabin.
Bam!!! A blow from behind sent me into the snow face first. I roll just as a flash of black and grey leapt towards me. I put my hands up just in time, catching the knife. Ghostface, he was strong. My arms shook holding his arm and knife away from my chest. Some footsteps approached from behind him. I glance for a moment at them. My face was partially covered by the hood of my jacket. He probably didn't know it was me.
"Who are you?" That voice. It was Kane? I tried to peak but as ghosty pushed me down with his weight the snow pushed the coat. At one point I couldn't even see anything. I kept my hold up.
"Don't kill them yet ghosty, we need answers." Margo said. So she was here too? I tried to buck him off with my hips but it wasn't happening. I needed Leon, but I also didn't want him to shoot Ghosty.
"Are you working for the skull king cult?" Kane asked. He was serious. Maybe I should speak up but I wasn't expecting to see them all again. I was the one who got burned by them, or at least burned by Margo. But they all trusted her.
"Let her up right now!" Ghosty didn't move. He let off some slack and I kept holding his arm and his hand that had the knife. Leon fired a warning shot. "I said LET HER UP!" He shouted.
"Let her up." Kane said. "We apologize but we were told this cabin was where to go for a safe house. We're hunting the skull king."
"It is a safe house." Leon put his gun back in the holster. "Are you from the compound? I thought we sent a memo saying we would handle it. Why are you here?" Leon asked Kane. I was still laying in the snow. I rolled onto my chest keeping my face hidden from them as I got up. Eventually the great reveal would happen even if I didn't want it.
"They told us we would be backing the blood moon cult but I didn't know that we would be sharing a safe house."
I snorted before finally speaking "Sounds like your boss disobeyed a request of ours!" I was sour sounding. Leon lifted a brow at Kane. Kane was looking at me. He had a look of recognition in his eyes. I couldn't tell if Ghosty did because he was too busy with Margo. He was fixing the hood on her coat. She had dyed her blonde hair a red like brown. Interesting...
"Well?" Leon asked. Kane was still looking at me. He was trying to look past the hood.
"Are you just gonna stare at me Kane?" I asked him. As soon as his name left my mouth both Margo and Ghosty joined us. Standing just a bit behind Kane and to the right of him. Kane knew immediately. So did Leon.
"Wait, are they?" Leon asked me. I nodded my head and Leon changed in his body language. Protectiveness taking over. I was his pupil after all.
"I thought you were..." kanes eyes were watering as he took a step forward.
"Whats going on?" Margo asked, oblivious. I pulled my hood off finally.
"Hello Margo." I said with a sneer. Her eyes went wide.
"Oh my gosh! You're alright! I'm so glad." She started to cry and wrapped her arms around Ghosty for comfort. I couldn't tell if she was faking it, I also couldn't tell if there relationship was different but it felt like it was. He was staring at me, or more his mask was pointed directly at me.
I rolled my eyes and turned for the house. "I'll be heading inside." I needed to get out of these wet clothes. I also didn't want to be near them anymore. Kane had other plans though and he hugged me from behind.
"I'm so sorry I didn't look harder for you. I was told you met the same fate as George and he was massacred." Kane choked out. I wiggled out of his arms forcefully. He had a look of understanding.
"Whats done is done.... I don't know what happened to George but I don't think it was the same thing that happened to me." I look at Margo as I say it. Her eyes go wide a little and back to normal. It happened so fast I think I was the only one to see it.
"Will you talk with me about it?" Kane asked. "I feel like the compound owes you a debt in that case. You must have struggled." Kane said following me to the house. Everyone entered the cabin house with me.
