Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 107 - Signals
...***...
Elvina and William are increasingly restless after seeing what happened, let alone Elvina's guess of Rei meeting Joe, adding to her anxiety.
"How now? What do we do?" William looked up at Elvina.
"We need to find out where Joe's taking Rei. We're looking near this, who knows if there's a trace they left."
"All right, let's go." William and Elvina hurried away from there. Continuing their search for Rei which they still could not find.
Rei... Where are you? thought Elvina.
...*...
"It turns out you can see it too." The man pulled out his grin. Rei looked towards him. It turned out that it was not only him who could see the huge creepy creature that was now stepping on his body.
He can see it too? What kind of creature is that? Since when was he there? As I recall, I fell smashing into a tree, not his body, the Inner Rei.
"Although you can see it, but you won't be able to do anything against it. Now, let me feel that delicious energy of yours." The hand that stretched out towards Rei, slowly began to absorb something from his body.
Rei made fun of it as soon as he saw something like smoke coming out from within his body and moving towards the palm of the man's hand.
A... What is he doing? Why does my body feel weird? A. I. my body feels so weak, I cannot feel my body. It felt like his hands were absorbing my energy. I couldn't move, how was this. Rei started to feel his body getting limp, along with that, he saw more smoke coming out and was absorbed by the palm of the man's hand.
The man closed his eyes with a grin appearing on his face. He seemed to be greatly enjoying every absorption of energy he had plundered from Rei.
Rei was getting powerless to resist, his body growing limp with his consciousness starting to diminish bit by bit.
Elvina.. William. help me. Inner Rei. Somehow in this state, his mind suddenly remembered his two cousins.
Rei... Where are you? Why did you disappear? Rei was stunned as soon as he heard the sound of Elvina buzzing in his eardrum. His voice sounds so clear.
Oh... right, why didn't I think about it? rei said in his heart. He only remembered that he could communicate with Elvina even though they were far from each other.
Rei closed his eyes even though his body was getting limp and could not be moved at all.
Elvina called him inwardly.
Rei's? It's you, isn't it? Rei could hear Elvina's voice across there.
You're where? Will and I are really worried about you. Where you going? Elvina sounded very anxious.
A. I'm in the woods. Helpme!
The grove? All right, wait for me. We'll be there soon!
Rei opened his eyes as soon as he finished communicating with Elvina through his telepathic abilities.
Now I have to think of a way that I can signal to Elvina that I am here so that they can easily find me, he thought. Rei tried to think of a way that he could signal to Elvina about the truth in that part of the forest.
He blinked until his pupils turned blue. Rei looked intently at one of the dry trees that were located quite far from where he was.
