STREET RIDERZ, Habiba Begum [read along books .TXT] 📗

and she did this quite often. She blasted her tracks on the car. You could hear the engine thrive and the rhythmic tracks beating a mile away. She loved this so much. she was are of crashes and not being too careful could cause her accidents but she was a pro when it come to driving. She had passed her driving license in less than a few weeks after her lessons. She loved cars from a young age by watching others drive their cars in full speed.
“Man I could do this all day, nothing is better than driving on full blast, drifting, pumping up tracks and just having fun”
She had forgotten about the assignment for a while and only realized when she passed Blossom Avenue. She knew that Jacob Road was just around the corner so she slowed down the car. She also turned off the load music. It was silent. All you could hear were the trees rustling in the wind and the birds chirping. She got out of the car looking in all direction. There was a name plate on the side of a post. It said ‘Jacob Road’.
“Well this must be it”. Christina slowly walked away from the car. She looked back at the car to check whether she had parked it in a parking zone. Yes, it was parked in the right place. She curiously walked down the lane. It suddenly began to feel cold. The breeze felt like a tickle on her neck. She shivered. Something was not right about this road, she thought. She fidgeted with her fingers. There were no houses on this road but one. It was an old fort like house. It was wooden and also looked like I was going to fall apart anytime soon. What kind of a place is this? Christina couldn’t believe that Sapphire could come to a place like this. Now Christina definitely thought that something was wrong. As Christina looked up at the house she tried to look through the windows. The glass was broken. Christina knew that there was no turning back now if she had come this far ahead. She had to open the door without being seen, so Christina looked behind her and in all directions. It was clear and there was no one around. She tried to think about what lies inside the house. Would there be dead bodies, or maybe murderers? Well, what she thought was completely out of her imagination. If only she knew that what she was about to do was going to change her life forever, from an ordinary working class girl, to something much more. She had a chance to run, all she had to do was turn back but her stubbornness is going to make her wish she hadn’t come in to this house.
Funnily enough the door seemed to be un-locked. What idiot would leave the door un-locked, unless they were planning to catch someone in a trap? Christina clicked the wooden old door open and popped her head inside. It was dark and damp. There were three hallways. One hallway was left; one was right and one straight ahead. Christina didn’t know which one to take; there was some kind of deep voices coming from ahead. I guess now she knows which hallway to take. All she had to do was turn around and head out of the door. She loved it when she had found a clue. When hearing noises and you know where it is coming from you get some kind of feeling that you have to follow that noise, but whatever it leads to is not always a good thing. Christina carefully stepped forward trying her hardest not to make a single noise that the voices or people or whatever they were would hear her coming. As she came closer there was a small gap big enough to fit her self in, on the wall. She hid for a bit and poked her head at them to get a clear picture as to who they were. It was a shocker. She was confused. What was this she was looking at? Christina did not know even what it was. It was a black like figures and at the bottom it flared. What was it? Was it some kind of demon? Christina did not know that they even existed. Maybe they were costumes, they had to be, however they looked too realistic to be fake. Well whatever they were, they are obviously guarding something. They looked a bit rubbish to be guards as they were having a conversation. Wait a minute, was one of them laughing? What the…?
Christina had to distract them somehow. Luckily she had her little blue side bag on her and rummaged inside. She still hid in that gap to make sure that the demon things would not see her. She thought that they looked a bit like those death sucking demon weirdoes from Harry Potter. Did they just pop out of the movie? Christina decided to call them th black demons. There wasn’t really anything else to call them anyway.
Finally she had found something to distract them. It worked in films so it must work in real life, or so she hoped it would. She took out a pretty blue stone out of her bag. The stone was small, smooth in all sides and was very shiny when she found it on the beach. She thought it was lucky because the day she found that stone was the day she got a job as an assistant manager at Fashion Star Industries. That reminded her just now that she had to call John, but now was not the time to have a little chat. She decides to call him after she had found Sapphire. Christina held the stone tightly in her fist and hoped that it would be lucky once again for her. She gently threw the stone behind her. She quickly turned her head to see where it had landed, that’s fine then. It is way back at the door. She had done a stupid thing, the black demons would definitely go to her now but she hoped she could hide behind the gap in the wall and they would not notice her. Obviously the two black demons did hear it as they have great hearing sense. They turned towards the direction that Christina was in. they flew down the hallway. Okay so they had no legs. Christina had expected that they would fly, and so they did. They flew so fast that Christina’s hair flew she tried o push her silky black hair back into place before they could notice. They were so stupid, they didn’t even see her. The black demons bent down to the stone and stared at it. They started to talk in a weird way to each other. Christina couldn’t believe it. Her plan had actually worked. She felt her heart soothe down. She felt relieved but there was no time to be happy. She had to make an escape otherwise she would be stuck there in that gap forever. She ran as fast as she could. Christina’s eyes frowned. She was wearing heels. What a very stupid day to be wearing heels. As she ran the sound of her heels made a tapping sound every time she stepped on the ground. She stopped with a halt. Christina was pissed, “Now you’re just taking the piss” Great, another direction. Which hall should she choose this time, left or right?
Oh not again. There was only one way to decide this. She closed her eyes and put her hand on over eyes just incase she could see. She stated humming to herself and twirled her self round. When she finished humming, she also stopped twirling. She opened her eyes and moved her hand away from her eyes. She was disappointed as she was back where she started. She had to do it again but this time a little slower. When she opened her eyes this time, she was facing the left direction. She was happy and ran down the hall. She stopped and realized that her heels make too much of a noise so she took of both her heels and held them in her hands and carried on running. That’s good; no noise came from her feet. She hated running bare feet. She kept hoping inside that she would find Sapphire. When she had reached the end of the hallway, there was a rotten, smelly, wooden door at the end of the hall. There were no other doors but this one. It had to reach Sapphire. She closed her eyes tight and hoped as she clicked open the door. What she saw made her eye brows lift.
