Episode 7

Vikrant opened the door with his shuddering hands, and with a slight fall of light, a figure established and it was Salunke, “What is happening here?”

“Where is Azad Sir?” he asked.

They all were surprised to see another police officer at that place, they felt a ray of hope appeared for them in way of a police man.

“What the heck happening here is someone going to tell me?” Salunke scowled at them.

Vikrant hold Salunke’s hand and brought him inside the room firstly and closed the door.

“We don’t know where your Azad sir is, we neither know what is happening here...”

“It was a creature” Abhishek

“What creature”, Salunke

“Something, wolf-like, fleshy, blood was dripping from his mouth, the skeleton...I guess that skeleton we found in that room might be his prey.” Vrushika explained.

“Wh...What skeleton, what are you all talking about, first tell me where is Azad sir!!!?” Salunke asked aloud.

“There is a creature downstairs in this haveli, and that creature took your Azad sir away.” Vikrant.

“Wh...What” Salunke got scared.

“But that's not a point, the important thing is, we have to escape from this place by taking Aisha from her room.” Abhishek.

“How’s that fucking possible now, that thing must be waiting downstairs for us, don’t you saw his hunger.” Gautam.

“my specs” Manish crying.

“I want some water” Naina.

Vikrant stood up and took out a bottle from his bag, as it was his room where they all had came up.

“Take” Vikrant handled the bottle to Naina.

“I came inside and came upstairs, but still I found nothing dangerous...” Salunke.

“What do you mean? You didn’t found blood there? You didn’t saw the creature there.”

“NO” Salunke.

“What if it may have gone away guys." Abhishek.

“We should once try to go down” Gautam.

“No... I won’t let you go... There is danger waiting down I can’t lose you” Vrushika.

“No, No Vrushika, we must have to go, we have to enough brave to get out from this situation, we can’t stay here our whole life.” Gautam.

“But” Vrushika.

Without looking at Vrushika Gautam stood up, along with Vikrant, Abhishek, Manish, Salunke.

They opened the door again, they slowly moved few steps down, and they glanced at the main door to check how far it but surprised to see it closed... They were shocked that how to escape now, who might have closed it...

***

Aisha was now into her senses... she found herself sleeping in a room; she remembered it was the room of the old haveli which was allotted to her... She was unaware of this everything, about the creature. And she was tired due to travel, she changed her clothes, And then took her phone and earphones, and started listening to her favourite songs playlist, just to check how’s going on outside she just opened the door and came into the living room, observing the old architecture and designs over the wall. And then suddenly her leg stuck into something, Aisha looked down, it was bags, bags of all of them. Aisha got confused, “Why these bags are here..? Naina!!Vrushikaa!!” she shouted out.

Vikrant, “This is Aisha's voice”.

“She awakened, Oh god, she must be wondering, we should go down to take her...” Manish said.

“Why she is shouting, she is calling the demon...”

***

“Vrushika!!!” Aisha shouted. Where these girls are. Aisha took off her earphones; she looked further and saw Manish's spectacles.

“How irresponsible this guy is!” Aisha took the specs up and started walking upstairs.

Suddenly she heard some noises, she looked to her left...

She was bewildered to saw a creature eating a police officer so much cruelly.... She just shocked and ran upstairs quickly. But till now the creature had saw her... that too ran behind her... Damn fastly...

***

“Someone is coming upstairs”, Abhishek.

“Great, I guess Aisha is coming” Manish thought.

And now it was visible for them to see Aisha running towards them. But slowly something more they saw running behind Aisha... it was the thing...

“Run!!!!” Vikrant screamed...

Aisha saw, Vikrant, Manish, Abhishek... She was crying because of the creature behind her and trying to run faster...

Gautam reached the room he opened the door...

“What happened, you saw that??” Vrushika...

“Is it still there??” Naina...

Naina, Vrushika stared at Gautam as he looked frightened.

Quickly all of the boys were inside the Room.

“QUICK!!!QUICK” Vikrant exclaimed at Aisha...

She was running faster and now got tired but successfully she reached the room and they closed the room’s door... The creature just smashed over the door brutally.

Now the creature was outside... Banging the door with his Head... They all were his tonight’s dinner. They seemed damn frightened inside in the room... Just everyone thinking... what to do... what to do ... now... what should they do to get out of this situation. Their death as just waiting outside the door... ready with its sharp teeth to take out their fleshes...

They were so tensed and thinking about their next step to escape from the thing...

“THINK...THINK SOMETHING GUYS!!!” Abhishek.

“Our death is waiting outside... we are going to die...” Vrushika.

“NO, I won't let you die” Gautam spoke by looking at the shotgun hunged upon a wall.

Everyone looked at the gun. They quickly took the Gun down. They found that there were 2 shots in the gun. This means that they could use the gun only for 2 shots.

They found one support to fight against the creature by using the shotgun.

“Search for more tools in this room...” Naina told everyone.

All of them started for searching sharper tools.

“Bang...Bang... Bang...” continuously the creature was Banging the door... the door was about to break down...

Gautam stood in front of the door so that the moment the door will fall apart, he will shot the creature.

Vikrant was not sure about the idea that the creature would die just by shotgun shots. Vikrant too started searching for something in the room. He opened the table drawers, he found nothing than some cockroaches scrawling apart. He saw a piggy bank over the table and just after looking at that thing he felt something...

“YOUR EVERY PROBLEM WILL BE SOLVED BY MONEY... EVERY PROBLEM”

Vikrant remembered that night when his dad came into his sleep and was apologizing... and during that they gave him the clue. They also mentioned it as a clue for the future...

Vikrant Picked up the small piggy bank and heard the clicking of coins inside. He broke the thing and the coins fall apart... he slowly collected all the coins ... He was feeling some strange vibe about the creature...

“Bang”

He holded the coins tightly.

Gautam holded the trigger firmly. He was ready to fire. As the door was ready to fall.

Else everyone was watching... they didn’t found anything useful in the room...

They were praying for their lives.

And then.

The door fallen apart... The CREATURE DID IT FIERCLY.. HE SCOWLED LOUDLY. NOW IT WAS TIME TO DIE.

“I won't spare you asshole...”

Gautam shot the 2 shots quickly into the chest of the creature.

The creature made a loud scream...

Everyone was scared, Vikrant was holding the coins.

AND
