A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

WARNING OF SOMETHING GREAT!

The six groups reached the spots around the border of Vincardine. Ruth sent one of the guards to look around, to make sure no danger was hidden waiting to launch the attack. The other guard took her to where the dead body was but not before a warning.

"Luna, erm... I don't think you can see it. I mean... it is... not in a good state."

"Don't worry about it! Show me where it is." Ruth ordered.

The man nodded his head and walked her to the spot. As soon as Ruth saw the sight, her eyes went wide in shock. She had seen enough in her life now, but none of that prepared her for the sight in front of her.

As she took slow steps near the dead body, she realised that the sight was more disgusting than she thought. The guard passed her a handkerchief to cover her nose. And she accepted it immediately without any arguments.

Ruth covered her mouth and nose as her face scrunched up in disgust. The flies had established their paradise on the dead rogue.
