I dashed away from her and to the dead end, barely making it out of her range. Magne followed my lead but stumbled a couple steps behind me.
After her first attack she just stood there as if waiting for something to happen, she didnt look back at us or lowered her weapon.
It was then I dropped to my knees. The bitch had drawn a clear line through my lower leg. Her make-shift spear was sharper than I imagined. I covered the wound with my hand but it didnt stop gushing blood.
“Run you idiots! Get away-” Quinn spoke out with all the energy left in his body. But sadly the woman drove her spear into his chest before he got to finish his sentence.
“SILENCE!” She pounded the weapon repeatedly leaving his chest covered with in running blood “This is MY fight, you will not ruin it”
Her sharp voice echoed in the surrounding walls, shortly to be interrupted by the sound of gun-cocking.
“But I sure wouldnt mind ruining it for YOU” Magne pointed his gun straight at her face. It looked like a classic police Beretta, the metal shone with the little light that fell upon it.
She turned around and looked straight into Magne’s eyes, she didnt show any fear, never stopped smiling.
“Would you dare ruining my fun?” Her words were slow and heavy, almost as if it had taken hours for her to finish the sentence. The voice had changed back to that melody, the calming, releaving melody.
“Ah…” Magne couldnt say anything, his body still.
It was like time had stopped. We were all trapped in the vortex… but her, she walked so charmingly over to Magne, moving her defined hips side to side.
I tried to push myself to yell something to Magne but I… I got lost in her eyes. It was like diving into the sky… showering myself in the light blue tint. I laughed, I was over covered with joy, I forgot what was going on, I even forgot what I was doing down here in the first place. When I pulled my hand out to reach her and her eyes met mine the entire room was covered in this peachy scent, a wonderful combination between fresh Cinnamon and sheer joy. I wanted her to continue to look at me forever. I was unbelievably happy, I had no needs, no worries, no fears.
I almost could hear sweet words come out her perfect lips as she got closer and closer. The darkness had vanished from the hall, everything was now lighted by a golden-bright star, and her face was enough to kill you…
…Or to kill me.
“S-Succubusssss…. D-D-D-Dieee!!!” Magne fired his gun.
And just like that darkness came back, like my pain, like the stench of dead coating the walls. I shook my head and wondered what just had happened. I looked over to Magne and our eyes met, his expression read the same that mine did.
“…that WAS a succubus… great call Magne” The words came out rough from my throat, but Magne’s smile showed that he got my message.
“Why?… You dont like me?…” She was back on her feet “What is there not to like about me?”
“Is the fact that you are not dead yet!” Magne pulled the trigger of his gun one more time, she fell to the floor once again.
With the second shot me and Magne got up with the strength we had and looked at the body in front of us. Within seconds I broke out laughing.
“Nice line” I said taking my eyes off the corpse “Where did you learn that? Comeback 101?”
“If I hadnt I would have never graduated from the academy” He winked and we both laughed.
For the first time in the entire night I was filled with a feeling of accomplishment, I was happy. It didnt matter if Quinn died or that we were trapped in the building, as long as I was happy. I picked up my flashlight but decided not to turn it on, everything looked so bright.
“You know what I really need right now?” Magne said, throwing away the bullet clips that he had in his harness.
“No, what?”
“A burger, with a large soda and-”
“Curly fries!” I answered as I smashed my flashlight against Magne’s forehead.
“Yes! With a side of Buffalo sauce” Magne pushed his fist into my face.
I was happy. I was overwhelmed with calm. I wasnt afraid anymore… and that wonderful scent was back, much sweeter than before. I smiled as the blood got into my eyes, but even through the red curtain I could see the bright golden star that illuminated us.
Our star greeted is with kisses. I was happy.
