A week had passed and it kept getting harder for the Police Department, Ingfalls and the Chamber of Duties to keep majority of the citizens of Ingfalls sane as journalists and the Press kept pushing their noses into the business of others - practically anyone, to extract an answer to all that had been happening.The PD though, was their mark. They'd perceived there was something - or things, going on that those at the top of the hierarchy knew about but not majority of the populace and that had spurred them into action as they went about searching for clues that might have been missed, leads to something exciting, shocking/revealing pointers or loose ends to about anything.Every journalism company and Press groups, tried their best to find out what it was that was going on before the others did. If only to get an upper hand.Gas leaks, motor accidents, minor flight mishaps with credit given to the unstable weather, powerplant explosi

The corroded, metal burglary resistors that extended from left to right - forming various rows, then up to down, (vertically) forming quadrilaterals of varying sizes went from rusty black to boiling lava red before letting out long, unending hisses like a vexed basilisk will as it melted under the palms of Gerey Wysalt. The resistors became bright red liquids and fell onto the ground as dense blobs before burrowing into the floor - and walls as brown, charred holes and letting out a suffocating fragrance. After a minute, Gerey was free and with a lot of difficulty, he climbed up his small window. As delicately as possible whilst trying to wrap his mind what was before him, he relaxed on the floating broom of Sir. Oswic and gripped it tightly (hoping it wouldn't catch fire) to avoid him swaying to the left, or right, then falling off.

The insides of the intimidating building that housed the police department felt... Different, cold and unwelcoming to Eallric as the armed seven-men police squad - him being at the very heart if diagonals were drawn, brought him out of his halfway battered 404 into the white, snowy erection.Inspector Bertio was there, tapping his feet rapidly on the fancy, golden tiles of the reception office.“Are you okay, sir? Anything we can get for you?”“Nothing, Bertio,” Eallric sighed deeply, “Thanks for your help by the way. Is Sergeant Marger around?”“Yes, sir, and I - am right here, too,” the mousy haired police officer said, climbing down the spotless, white stairs from her office and walking into the reception.“Good. I don't know how you're going to get about it but I need the people outside calmed. I'll be giving them a little speech in

The milieu of the gigantic building which homed the Police Department, Ingfalls, was tearing apart gradually with each strike that swooped and descended on the building thanks to the three headed creatures.From Inspector Eallric's calculations, a maximum of five more heavy strikes from the shrewd, bloody horns of the uncompromising brutes will bring the citizens - and cops, that crammed the building to their knees and in about an hour, they will all be history.But at that moment, Chief Inspector Eallric Hancey wasn't bothered by that. He was focusing on something different, something distinct, something peculiar, something unusual.His attention was riveted on Gerey Wysalt.**A loathsome stench of the rotten remains and fetid creatures floated around the trio - Sir. Oswic, Gerey and Cwena as they came down the broom. Cwena, the powerless one.“Cwena, stay safe. Yo

A transparent and synthetic-looking blue shield that spread out and arched like a broad satellite dish with its epicenter as Sir. Oswic's wand protected Cwena from the impact of the tyronimic as Sir. Oswic chanted, “Portergio Hidarmus!” before sprawling to the ground as the effect of the infuriated tyronimic's strike on the shield whacked him a little.The tyronimic stopped in its tracks and violently quaked its heads - left and right, up and down, to shake off the effect of running into Sir. Oswic's shield which had vanished as soon as its purpose had been executed.Sir. Oswic who lay stomach-to-the-ground stretched out his left hand; not minding the stones that stabbed into his arm, and called for his wand that lay a few feet from him by muttering a simple spell.The wand shook a little on the stony pavement and in seconds flew into the awaiting arms of Sir. Oswic who at once sprang to his feet - way too agil

“In just three days after what happened at the Police Department, I think in Mariner's Spur, there have been a drastic upsurge in polio and measles for children below six. Severe issues for babies below three months include bone wrenching that prevents growth, brain explosions, that lead to instant deaths, and - heart failures, too. All the same, adults have it worse, trust me.”“- And it's not in Wabrook alone. There have been reports all over the world. In Kinsyew and Qazax and even, Ryilop, too.”“My adopted brother's son died last week - brain detonation! It was a rude shock.”“This world is turning into something else. We better prepare ourselves for worse situations cause it looks like the world is coming to an end. Even hospitals are getting crammed with patients, morgues with corpses, and perhaps, hell, too.”“- And heaven. I can imagine the ang

“Can I get, uhm - five minutes, to talk to her, before we present ourselves to the Chamber for a verdict?” Sir. Oswic asked Fanzen Trouy who had a snug smile and was beaming about what neither Sir. Oswic nor Cwena nor the other ten guards that had escorted him knew of.“Y'know - just in case, we - perish. We want our moment,” Sir. Oswic explained.“Hokey dokey. Five minutes. Anything more than that then I'm sorry but you're going to rot in here,” Fanzen put in then walked deeper into the faintly illuminated corridor, out of their view. The guards excused the duo, too.“He's not dead!” Sir Oswic whispered.“Huh? Who's not - Ohh!” Sir. Oswic clamped his jittery hands hastily over Cwena's mouth.“Shhh, don't talk loudly. Remember the spell I put on Gerey? It is to make him sleep and do some minimal healing. I don't know how effective it is but considering the fact that they still believe him

“What do you both want us to do with you considering the fact that you - are menaces to the order of our society?” Sir Artin said after a few minutes.“Retaining us in your custody - or, killing us, when we obviously are the ones that delivered about five hundred citizens and cops of Ingfalls from the tyronimics is a threat to the repose of Ingfalls!” Cwena shot back infuriatedly before Sir. Oswic could reply.Barrister Gauwilh Chames of the Eventide Shore law firm, South of Ingfalls, stood up - a little over five feet, “I'm with them, sir. They are ostensibly the best shot we have at defeating who or what it is that is making a waste of our land and preys of our people.” He locked eyes with Artin Dane then continued speaking, “Me, you and -” he turned to his right to glance at Eallric, “ - Chief inspector Eallric know how terrible things will be if they hadn't shown up at the Police Department at Ingfalls and redeemed the people.”Artin Dane inhaled deeply and with a sigh, let it out

An odd sensation as they were being sucked out of their bodies distribted through Sir. Oswic, Artin Dane, Dr. Wene Noelle, Riyen Gosbald, Chief Inspector Eallric Hanvey and Barrister Gauwilh Changes through their hands that served as traverses as their souls were pulled through a dark tunnel filled with bright green neon lights and afflicting, agonizing wails coupled with disheartening laughs of demons.After about a minute, the somewhat exciting phenomenon came to an halt and each of them lay metres away from each other, scatter on a bloody and vast piece of land, hugged to the ground.Sir. Oswic was the first to get up and as he did, he smeared the foul stench of the blood on the thorny soil off his face and subconsciously on his clothes as he looked around for the others.Dr. Wene Noelle was the closest to him. He jugged over to her side, touched her shoulders as he helped to her feet and whispered, “are you okay?

Back in the Chamber of Duties, Wabrook, where the numb and lifeless bodies of Sir. Oswic, Artin Dane, Riyen Gosbald, Eallric Hancey and Wene Noelle were, things were going ordinarily.The sun was bright and warm, the breeze; cooling and refreshing, and the fourteen people present in the Chamber, chatting and catching up on one another, apparently they were all good friends but for Troef’ny who apparently had just foes and Cwena who watched the benumbed bodies for any sign of movement or any indication of struggles, - it wasn't like she had anything else to do. She knew none of the people in the Chamber and just a few hours ago, she was a prisoner.Thirty minutes passed, nothing. An hour, nothing. Two hours, still nothing.Then like a berserked villain, Troef’ny Uthane suddenly sprung to her feet and charged towards the numb bodies in a frenzy.Cwena who was the closest to them understood the situa
