The Night Rose - Chapter 32
“But how I will fight against that doll,” Arwin asked from herself.
She didn’t saw any other weapons than the burning oil lantern in her hand, and she said herself.
“I never guessed I would go out by burning to death.
I was guessing that I would fall to my death or then be blown up to pieces.
But I guess this isn’t that bad way to go out either.” Arwin said while waiting for the doll.
The giggling and singing were getting closer and closer, and when the doll saw Arwin waiting in the stairs, it said.
“You didn’t even hide a boring playmate this time.
You will stay here, my friend, then forever.” It giggled out more, but suddenly, Arwin threw the oil lantern towards the doll who dodged it, but the oil and fire started to spread.
“You fucker won’t get a chance to do that.
I’m a pirate, not a fucking doll or a playmate to some ingrown bastard who wants to play with dolls.
I will play with dolls only if I can shoot them pieces or then if I have been paid to do it.” Arwin said while laughing out loud but then started to cough because of the smoke.
“What have you done? You destroyed my playground, my most favorite creation I will kill you!” The doll suddenly screamed out inhumane voice while trying to lunge towards Arwin.
Arwin, who saw this started to ran middle of the fire while laughing maniacally.
“Come then and let us both go hell then as I’m not scared of a fucking doll.
So come to me then, and let’s see which one does die first.” Arwin said while her clothes caught fire and she was starting to burn, but suddenly she started to run towards the doll and captured it and hugged it tightly while saying.
“As I said no running away, we both will now go to the hell and see if it really is a place then,” Arwin said while laughing out.
“Let go of me! I won’t let you destroy my hard work that I spent over the years to build.” The doll screamed out while trying to escape Arwin’s grasp.
But Arwin didn’t let go and was just laughing out.
Suddenly Arwin woke up at the jail, and she saw a creature with only one eyeball in the ground screaming out from a pain.
It was a round thing like a ball with tentacles added to it, and the one eye dominated its whole face.
“You fucker was it because of you.” Arwin started to kick the creature out of rage as her pleasant sleep was disturbed.
Smith, who heard the commotion and came to check out what was happening, immediately drew his weapon out and threw it to Arwin.
As it was quicker than him rummaging through all of the keys he had, and even if Arwin did not give the sword back, it would be easy to kill him in the cell by arrows.
“Stab it through the eye quickly before it traps someone to its nightmare world,” Smith yelled out, and Arwin stabbed the creature straight through the eye.
“Now, can I have my sword back?” Smith asked out while waiting for Arwin to give the sword back.
Arwin gave the sword to Smith, who cleaned the sword and said.
“You are lucky that it didn’t trap you to the nightmare world.
Not many come back from those, and the creature will feed on the person’s nightmares endlessly while the host dies at some point from a hunger or something.
Think like a vampire but only for dreams filthy creatures and even more dangerous than Vampires.” Smith started to rumble out while searching the right key to the cell.
“Smith, you are wrong; at one point it did trap me to the nightmare world, but I got free by killing myself and burning the whole place down,” Arwin said while stumbling down to the bed, exhausted by this unexpected event.
“What you got free from that world but like one of the tenth manage do that.
You are lucky, bastard, aren’t you?” Smith gasped out, but after that laughed to his poor joke before opening the cell.
“Let me clean this off from your cell, and after that, I will bring some food and water for you as you are pale as a ghost now.
For now, rest and say if something happens as I will call the doctor them here.
Even if you would be a criminal, you will have the right to a doctor and food if you aren’t going to be executed.” Smith said while he was dragging the corpse put from the cell.
After he was done, he locked the jail door again while saying.
“I will be back soon and sorry that you had to experience this unexpected event.” While dragging the corpse slowly away.
