I heard some sound and I told Prem to keep quiet and be alert.
I peeped through the basement door and noticed Rajesh coming in through
the main door. He had a sack in his hand and I did not want to imagine what it
is.
Rajesh entered the kitchen with the bag and then came out after 15 minutes
with a tray. He walked upstairs and opened the room with the keys.
I gestured Prem and we both walked upstairs silently. Rajesh closed the
door and we could hear him talking to Vikram.
"Why did you come so late? I was waiting for you since 2
hours..." Vikram said loudly.
"Sorry sir. It took me time as it was quite dark outside...This was
the only food I managed to get for you...Please manage with this
tonight....Tomorrow I'll get for you more food..."
I heard a loud noise and it seemed that Vikram slapped Rajesh. "You
fool...You think that I can satisfy my hunger with just two chicken loafs...I
want a human flesh and not this crap...Go just now and get me a human
body...Else today you will be my meal and there won't be anybody to save
you..."
Prem started getting frustrated on hearing their conversation and I caught
his hand trying to stop him from interfering as he would also have to risk his
life.
"Please sir...I'm sorry for my mistake but please wait for
sometime...I'll try to get food for you tonight..." Saying this, Rajesh
left the room and we both hid behind.
I saw Rajesh leaving the house and I told Prem to wait for the correct
moment but he wasn't able to control his temper. He wanted to call out to
Raghav and make him aware of this monster.
I started walking downstairs and Prem followed me. He kept looking at the
door and by mistake, he slipped down and hits the railing. I couldn't
understand what just happened and I rushed down to save him.
Prem got up on his own and I caught his hand to help him walk when I
noticed a loud groan. A person came rushing towards us and Prem pushed me in
the corner. I hit the wall while Vikram stabbed Prem with a huge knife.
I saw my brother dying in front of my eyes and I couldn't do anything to
save him. My brother was trying to save me and hence he pushed me. That monster
was killing him and I stood silent besides the wall.
Prem caught the railing of the steps and his stomach and hands were
covered with blood.
The room was so dark that I could not see anything except the monster
holding a knife in his hands and inserting it in Prem's stomach. He kept doing
it over 15 times till Prem fell on his knees and died on the ground.
I saw my brother lying dead on the floor and I couldn't even speak a word.
I lost him...I lost my only brother that night.
Prem's eyes were lifeless and while breathing his last, he turned his face
towards me and his breath stopped. Those eyes tried to protect me from that
cannibal and he was telling me to move as the next target.
I fell to the ground watching him lying on the floor. I couldn't understand nor hear anything till I noticed a man standing in front of me, holding a knife with blood drops dripping from it.
I noticed the monster standing in front of me and I got up by holding the
wall besides me.
I was trembling with fear but there was neither regret nor any fear in the
monster's voice. "Now it's your turn..." He said those words to me
and I widened my eyes as he lifted his hand holding the knife and brought it
near my neck.
He moves his hand behind and with force he moved his hands to cut my neck
with the knife. I immediately bent and hence the knife hit the wall, leaving a
mark on the wall and I pushed the monster and ran upstairs towards Raghav's
room.
I started breathing heavily and tears kept falling from my eyes. I was
holding the railing to walk upstairs and I could hear the monsters footsteps
approaching me.
I managed to reach the first floor and open the door of my bedroom. I started screaming out Raghav's name and pushing the door closed but it did not get locked.
I applied force to shut the door but I noticed the monster had jammed his
hands in between the door and its frame which was preventing the door from
getting shut. He kept growling outside the door as his palm was paining and I
kept calling out Raghav but I couldn't hear any sound.
With one hand, I put on the switch of the room and looked behind to see if
Raghav was there, but to my surprise, he wasn't present in the room.
I looked around to search for him but he wasn't there and taking advantage
of my distraction, the monster managed to push the door open and I fell on my
back on the bed.
The monster came rushing towards me and landed on top of me. He was
holding the knife in his hand and he was wearing the same jacket and gloves as
that day.
I tried to protect myself from the attack and I struggled to hold his hand
and resist his force. He was applying all his force to stab me with the knife
and I finally managed to hold the knife with my bare hands.
My hands were bleeding but still I managed to holds the knife firmly and
throw it away. In this effort, the glove as well was thrown away and his hands
were in mine.
