Chapter 6: We are Gonna die

Philip's Pov

She smiled with the red beaming eyes. One look could tell you, you made the wrong decision.

" Shall we begin?" Ruby said.

" But Philip's arm" Oliver said to her.

" What do you mean? His Arm looks fine"

Everyone turned to me wondering what she meant and to our surprise my arm was back to normal and my shirt soaked with blood was back to normal. It looked like nothing happened.

' what the…'

" Can we proceed?" Ruby Asked.

" … Yeah, but before that can I ask you some questions?" I said

She made a thinking pose before responding.

" Alright, but let's have a seat first. I don't like standing and answering too many questions".

She led the way up the stairs and into a dining room. The first place Oliver and I met her. She took her seat at her usual position.

" Don't stand around have a seat, besides I already said I wouldn't hurt you anymore"

Oliver and I hesitated before we sat down because it was this same place where things went dark.

" What question do you want to ask?". You may think I didn't actually have questions to ask just to buy time for ourselves but I actually do.

" Miss Ruby…"

" No, it Mrs. Elizabeth"

' I thought her name was Ruby, is she playing again?' I thought but, I also noticed her eye colour changed.

" ….. yeah sure Mrs. Elizabeth, Why have our Appearances changed here?"

" Souls have no form nor design, however they take shape whenever they enter into territories, different territories means different form but they show your true personality"

" So you mean the way we look is represented by our personalities"

" Talents and skill can also factor looks, also the image you picture yourselves to be could also factor"

" Does it change?"

" once It has taken form it will always be that way in the territory"

" I see" I've had my question answered. I want to ask more but Dave chipped in.

" Mrs. Elizabeth, Why are we here?" Dave said

" For the four of you, my knowledge can not tell however there is one who was to be here and that was Philip"

' What!?' I thought

" Why me!?" I asked her.

" You were the one who started the transmission process"

" But how!?, I can't remember doing anything"

" I can not share that information with any of you"

" If I was the only person to be here, why did they get involved?"

" As I said before I do not know how"

" Then Send them back!"

" I cannot do that, once in my territory you must compel"

" Damn it!" I said, slamming my hand on the table. That's when u notice it again. The bracelet.

" What are these bracelets we are wearing?" I asked

" They are Soul Checkers, It tells if a soul is broken or not"

" So you mean it tells if we are insane or sane right?" I asked

" Yes, precisely"

" Then how would we know if the soul is broken?"

" Normal colors show personality like Green, red, blue, and violet" everyone pulled their Right right arm out and started to look at the color of their bracelet. I had a red jewel color, Oliver had Blue, Beatrice had Green, Mary had a yellow and Dave had violet.

"However there are some colors that mean a different thing from personality. The color white refers to a broken mind meaning insanity while there are even worse ones like the transparent meaning dead. Looking at yours I can say that you might be dying already"

Looking at the jewel from the sunlight you could see a slight transparency in it about 40 percent transparent.

" How long has it been since we got here?"

"In the flesh, almost 2 days"

" But it's only been an hour and half even since we woke up"

" Time here and time there are different, one is faster than the other"

If what she was saying is true then we can't stay here any longer we could die anytime soon!.

" We are going to die!!!!" Mary cried out.

" Easy girl, we wouldn't be dying here, not today," Beatrice said, trying to calm her down a bit.

" Do you want to proceed with the deal?"

I thought of it for a second and gasped.

" When we are done playing the deal you would let us go, right?"

" Of course, a deal is a deal"

" Guys we have no choice, if we stay any longer we might die quicker than we thought. We have play our part and get home"

" I agree " Dave said.

Oliver and the girls just simply nodded.

Ruby otherwise known as Miss Elizabeth now made a freakish smile and her eyes beamed red.

"Then Let's begin !!"

The table legs broke and it fell, it went further down the floor creating a hole and forming a stairs. The chair moved away from the center to the walls, it turned around and now we were all facing a door. The chair disappeared Instantly without particles and we were all standing.

The door we were all facing was once outside the room where I first saw Oliver.

" It's Night time, have a goodnight sleep '' She said and snapped her fingers. Immediately the weather changed from day to night.

" Nighty Nighty boys and girls"

It was so sudden, we were all hesitating to enter. We looked at each other and gave a deep breath.

" It is a matter of life and death, fortify your minds, it's all you would need to stay Alive" Ruby or Mrs Elizabeth said.

Without any more words said we opened the door at the same time and entered.

I was greeted by a shunning white ray of light. It was so bright I had to cover my eyes. Finally, when it stopped I felt a breeze go through my hair. I lowered my Arm to be greeted by a new site. A peaceful one.

I just came out of a house when I thought I was entering a room. It was on a hilltop with beautiful grasses and a few meters away there was a corn farm. Looking at this I remembered something.

" Coming out from her house on a hill top was a corn farm a few meters away. If you look closer you will find her…"

" Playing around" I said

It was a part from the book I read last Night or perhaps the last 2 nights.

A girl was playing around a few walks away from the house.

" Hey mister, your White hair looks beautiful!"
