Aaron P.O.V. I’ve been outside the ICU door since last night, sitting on my chair. The corridors were getting cold, there were chairs all around the corridor. The walls were painted white while the floors were also in white. I remembered when the agency was searching for foster parents for Lara. Stella talked me into agreeing with her, assuring that the bad times are over. I told Stella it was a bad idea, and I was right. I almost fell asleep when the doctor emerged from ICU. “Doctor, how is she? Is she going to be okay? Is she okay doctor” I asked. “We’re working on her,” he replied. That’s what he’s been saying for the past few hours, Is she going to be okay or not?.. Outraged, I held his collar. “What do you mean?, You have been saying that since last night. I don't see you guys doing anything?". I said. Before the doctor could say anything, the nurse rushed out of the ICU. “Doctor, come fast!. The patient.. The patient” she said. “What happened?” I asked while letting the doctor go, but they didn’t say anything and left. They’ve been in there for over an hour. Just before I took a seat, the door opened. “Is she okay?” I asked the doctor in a threatening voice. The doctor glanced away, as though trying to find the right words. “Say something! Why are you not saying anything doctor? Is she okay” “She slipped into a coma, I am so sorry, we tried our best to stop that from happening." The doctor said while looking down . Silence lingered in the waiting room. How was that possible? Despite the air conditioner cooling the room, I was sweating. Before I could say anything, waves of pain surrounded my head, My sight was becoming blur and then I collapsed. “Nurse, call the ward boys! Get the stretchers! Be fast” The doctor said. “Take him to the ward! Right now” “Get the injection! What’s happening?”
"We are losing him doctor." The nurse said. "Get the electric shock, Right now. Be fast." The doctor said. The doctor switched on the machine and laid it on Aaron's chest, his chest rose up due to the shock that spread across his body. "1..2...3.. Increase the electric charge." His chest rose again, the physical shock spread across his body again. “Oh my God…we lost him…” Meanwhile, at Lara’s house: No one knew what happened to Lara’s parents. Lara herself was happy, as she did what she wanted to for a long time. She stared at him, where he sat? She was finally with him. She got what she wanted? “We need to do it fast. I need to be more powerful, I need this power to take her out.” “We can’t rush, rushing will lead to the destruction,” he said. “But we don’t have time, we need to do it fast.” “We could have the ritual on a full moon.” "That would be perfect, we need to get some items before the rituals." Lara said. “Okay, but remember no intrusions or any mistakes. The worst will happen.” An evil grin crept on Lara’s face. She was finally going to be powerful enough to eliminate Isabella. She’d wanted to do that since she met her. Meanwhile, at Isabella’s house: What wrong with mom? I became worried about her. Standing outside their room, I wanted to know if she was all right. “Isa?” my mom said as she opened the door. I wrapped my arms around her. “Thank God you’re okay, mom I have been worried, I have never seen you like that before, what happened mom?." I asked her. She gave me a weak smile. “Come sit.” She sat on a blue leather couch. Mom and Dad appeared serious-minded. For a while, silence lingered until my mom broke the silence. “You must be wondering what happened to me, but there are some things I can’t tell you.” "What happened to you mom? What did you see?." I asked my mother. "There are just something I can't tell you, There are something that are better hidden." My mother said. “But who did you see?” “That I can’t tell you, but he’s powerful, and we need to stop him, we need to stop him.” “From doing what mom?” I asked. “Horrible things, bad things Isa We must perform a ritual on a full moon.” my mother said. “But I’m too little for this, Mom, I'm scared mom.” “You can do it honey, I was once like you scared, I never thought I will be able to do it but I did and I know you are little but the faster you learn, the better for you.” Dad didn’t say anything as he listened to our conversation. “There’s a book in the attic,” Mom said. “We need it to perform the ritual, and remember: the worst would happen if there is any intrusion.” “Are we gonna kill him? Is he a human just like us” I asked. “No he isn't, he is from another world and Yes, we have no choice we have to kill him, we can't risk him coming back again.” Trying to take everything in, I wasn’t sure what to do. As I got up to find the book, my stomach rolled in knots. Who was this thing that Mom talked about? God help me.
