"I'm sorry, I thought my footsteps would be loud enough for you to hear me coming from way over there. At first, I wanted to shout to get your attention but I'm afraid, what if there are are some zombies nearby and if I shout, they find my location and ambush me." Said Sena.
"Zombies?" The girl asked in confusion.
Sena nodded and said," I concluded that today is the start of a zombie apocalypse, look at my eye, my hair and the thing you just did and I thought you were also a zombie ."
"Why did you think I was a zombie?" Said the girl in confusion..
"10 steps away from you, you suddenly stop moving and stood, frozen in place." Said Sena
"I didn't move because I'm focusing on controlling the vine and I haven't even seen a single zombie. Maybe it's not a zombie apocalypse but our situation is similar to some apocalypse plot in novels and its kinda hard to believe that what we are experiencing right now is the start of an apocalyptic era." The girl said
"Maybe you're right, I'm also starting to believe that this is not a zombie apocalypse since I haven't seen a single one since I woke up."Sena said agreeing to her perspective.
Then she asked with curiosity, "Umm.. would you mind telling me, how on earth can you control that?"
"I can control it through my hand and my will that's why I didn't move a while ago, I'm practicing my will. However I don't know why I can suddenly do this, its a mystery for me too. By the way, I'm Jena Tanil." The girl with a bob hairstyle said.
"Wow, you're amazing, in a short time you manage to control your new ability. My name is Senalia Forgeneria, Sena for short." Sena looked at her with awe due to the talent she showed.
"You look like you're cosplaying? Your hair and eyes." Jena said with awe because in her perspective Sena looks like an otherworldly Goddess.
"Yeah, it's the accident fault." she said, then with curiosity she asked Jena, "Can I ask you, if you don't mind, how did you acquire that ability? I want to have one too."
" I was trapped inside my uncle's car and i woke up with injuries, I couldn't move casually because it hurts. I tried to ask for help but it was pointless because i fainted. I woke up again and suddenly i can do this." Jena heartbrokenly told her what she had been through.
She must have used her power to get out of the car.
Sena thought and said, "I should have been inside the taxi, but I woke up somewhere else. The driver or someone else must have pulled me out."
"You're very lucky, at least they pulled you out of that taxi. But how can they just leave you in a place where safety isn't guaranteed." Said Jena.
"I think their badly injured and couldn't carry me whenever they may go. And I'm not that lucky, just as I woke up, I heard people talking, I think it was the voices of rescuers, unfortunately I couldn't even get their attention." Sena said sadly..
"So Rather than waiting for rescue, Sena. I suggest let's find a way out and maybe we will also be spouted by the rescuer along the way." Jena suggested.
Then Sena suddenly remembered, "But your uncle, isn't with us?"
"His dead. His body is still in the car." Jena said, holding her tears back.
"My condolences." Replied Sena
Jena nodded to her in reply and the girls started their search.
Minutes passed....
Their search for rescue and a way out was still fruitless but giving up is not an option so they continue.
"The fog is really thick, and I'm lucky that I spotted you a while ago, despite the fog and all the overturned cars in the way. I can't even understand why there's fog here. You know, It's like we're in a horror movie," Sena said as she looked around. .
"Stop it, I hate scary movies you know, hearing that word makes me imagine scary plots so let's just keep going without mentioning that word or imagining things, what if we scared ourselves to death, here." Jena said as she looked at Sena.
"You're right. " Sena nodded in agreement as she looked around, then she stopped and enthusiastically shook Jena who was standing beside her, "Jena, I have seen freedommm!"
"Where?" Jena asked excitedly.
"There." Sena pointed in the distance, a gap in the fog, showing a clear and bright space.
"Freedom! let's go were almost there." Jena said excitedly as she cautiously trotted avoiding the car that has been toppled and in collision with each other.
Seeing her in a state of anticipation, Sena fell into a thought. Doesn't she have injuries? Yet, she move as if there's none. Sigh, in the face of immense freedem, pain is nothing.
Then she suddenly said, "You go on i have to find my bag."
Caught off guard by what she said, she mentally screamed.
Whatttt! Oh myy, what did I said?! My mouthhhh, what is happening to me! Is the ghost controlling me!
Hearing her explosive words, Jena stopped, she turned around and asked Sena with a Serious face, "Are you sure? It's just a bag and we can buy it again. This place is creepy and very dangerous, it could blow any moment and I could help you, then we would find it faster."
"That bag was very important, it was the last gift my father gave to me before he died and it's okay I'm not scared, I can do it. I know where it is and don't worry, it will be quick."
Sena said calmly, but inside her she's panicking.
Ahhhhhhh! What is happening! Jena don't believe my mouth, it's not trueee. It's the ghost lies. That bag is just newly bought!
Hearing Sena assuring tone and believable look. Jena let out a sigh and said, "I know how important something is if it has sentimental value but if it's just a bag. It's not worth taking the risk for but since it's your choice then go and I know I can't stop you. By the way, i will let the officer know that you're still alive and be careful."
"Thank you." Sena said against her will.
Jena nodded in response and she turned around.
At the same time, Sena knowing she couldn't freely control her mouth and her body. She mentally cried for help.
Jena don't leave meee! The ghost will eat me! Jena don't leave me here.
Sena watched Jena, slowly disappear in her sight. Then she felt her body turned around on its own and walk towards an unfamiliar path. Unknown to her, she was walking towards a very special meteorite at the center.
As she arrived, she saw a huge rock, its surface had red glowing cracks like red scorching hot lava. The cracks where all connected not a single one were unbound.
Her body stop walking at 2 steps away from the meteorite. I thought it would be hot like lava but it's not.
"What an oddly looking meteorite." She said, realizing she can speak freely, she was overjoyed.
Then she try to moved her hand, her leg, she can. Just as she was celebrating her newly found freedom, she turned around noticing something strange and said, "Whose There!"
Seeing nothing she felt relief and afraid of the unknown and thought, I swear I definitely heard something.
Suddenly, she felt her body turned around against her will.
Here we go again..
Ghost if you can hear me, can you stop controlling me because my body isn't suitable for you, you could get sick.
Ghost, can I get a response.
Please...
And just let you know, I'm not delicious, I haven't shower for 30 days...
This all true ghost, all true!
Sena mentally convincing,and 4 minutes have passed still not getting a response, she give up.
Then suddenly she heard a familiar eerie voice. It's like whispering to her.
Touch it... Touch...touch
Listening to the eerie voice she felt goosebumps all over her body. The voice did not stop even for a second it just kept repeating.
Noticing she could move her hand but not her leg. She covered her ears in a terrified state but it didn't do much.
