Nightfall, Pranay Javeri [diy ebook reader .TXT] 📗

took a deep breath and told Millicent," I think we should go now to sleep in our room." Then we both went to our room after saying good night to everybody.

As there were 5 rooms, I and Millicent shared one room, Claire, Stella and Sophia were the roommates, Jake and Rhys shared a room and Ian and Jaxton shared a room.

The rooms spacious and seemed much like hotel suits. The doors made of pine wood were big and were carved with French design. It looked royal and antique. There were two closets and bathrooms with Italian work on it. The bed was a king size bed-------------big enough to accommodate three people at a time. The bed-sheets were of golden brown colour----------------matched the color and texture of the wall of the room.

 As we went inside the room and got our asses under the blanket we heard a knock on the door. I and Millicent stared at each other with a -'You-Know-What-I-Am-Thinking'- look because we both remembered the scene from the horror movie and were frightened of that thought.

"Millicent, open the door." I requested with a smile.

"Why should I open the door? Do you think I'm dumb?!" asked Millicent with sharp eyes.

 "Okay, we both will open the door------------Deal?" I calmed her down.

"Okay, deal." replied Millicent by folding her hands.

Then we both got out from the bed and started walking towards the door. As we reached the doors, Millicent switched on the lights but they instantly got switched off and there was nothing but darkness spread all over the room and fear in our mind. My heart started thumping faster than normal. Then suddenly lights of our room started switching off and on continuously. I was afraid like hell by now and Millicent too as she held my hand tightly.

Then there was a knock again on the door. I signaled Millicent to be by my side and I went to open the door. As I slowly opened the door there was a creaking noise and as the door was fully opened a women in white dress with blood spots and candle in hand was standing in front of us. We were frozen at that site. I wasn't able to see her face as she was looking down and suddenly she raised her head and her face was horrific. It was all covered with bruises and blood. Millicent and I both screamed with all our strength," Help! Help! Ghost! There's a ghost in the house."

We ran towards the door of Jake and Rhys room but before we could reach the door, there was one more person standing in front of us with blue eyes shining in the dark. I was scared as hell. Millicent beside me fainted and when I screamed," Help! Guys, Millicent has fainted." At an instant all the lights of the passage were switched on and I saw all my friends with that lady in white coming towards us. I was stunned and had no words.

"Millicent, Are you okay?" came Rhys with a glass of water and was followed by my other friends. He came over and sprinkled some water on Millicent's face and she came back to her consciousness.

 "Millicent, are you alright?" I asked.

She replied," I'm fine guys. Just got overwhelmed I suppose."

"Guys I suppose you have something to tell us." I said in sharp voice at once and there was pin drop silence.

Millicent a little confused asked," What are you talking about, Iris?"

Rhys kept hand on Millicent's shoulder and said," We'll answer all your questions but first I suppose we should go in the living room." Then we all marched towards the living room.

"Okay, now spill the beans." I retorted. Millicent still confused looked at all of us. "

Okay, it was my and Jake's plan." confessed Ian," We told everybody about the plan except you both as it was going to be used on you." "

We told Claire to dress like that and frighten. At first, all of them refused but we somehow managed to convince them." continued Jake.

"Look we didn't know that things would go to that extreme level. We are sorry." repented Ian to both of us.

Millicent replied," Everything's okay, guys. But please don't do that again because I had a near death experience."

"Promise me?" I asked.

 "Promise!" All replied at once.

I further added," Claire you did a nice job. And by the way who dressed like the vampire?"

"Yes, who did that? I also want to know." followed Millicent.

All were looking at both of us like as if we have gone mad and were speaking shit. "What happened guys?" I asked once again.

 "Iris, no one dressed like a vampire." said Ian. And there was silence all over the place for at least a minute. All were just staring at each other.

"Iris and Millicent, I think you both just hallucinated due to that shock." said Ian.

"How can we both imagine the same person? Answer." said Millicent.

"But neither of us had decided to dress like a vampire." said Jake.

"Look we didn't see the whole face but we just saw the shining dark blue eyes in the dark." I replied.

 "None of us have the dark blue lens. I'm sure that none of us did that." said Ian.

"Yes, we didn't." said all of our friends at once.

 "Then did really a vampire come here?" asked Sophia. All were looking at her now.

"Maybe, as this place is near the border, a vampire may have visited the house." replied Jake.

 "What?" All said at once.

 "Look, I'm not sure. I said 'Maybe'." said Jake.

"Guys, I think we all should go and sleep." yawned Jaxton. "Yes, he's right." agreed Stella. So once again we all shared good nights and went into our respective rooms.

"Good Night, Iris." wished Millicent.

 I replied in a low voice to Millicent," Good Night." I switched off the lights and we both slept as it was already late and we had to reach to the fair by 10:00 am as it was going to start by 10:30 am.

 

"Iris, wake up. You need to go and take bath. Please wake up for god's sake or I'll have to Ian's trick. Do you get?" Threatened Millicent and I woke up at once.

 "Okay you don't need to threaten me." I replied and woke up. I took my towel and went inside the bathroom. I brushed my teeth, washed my face, took a hot shower and shampooed my hair. After completing all this work, I dried my body and hair with the towel. I came out side and wore a net vest with a top inside and jeans. I quickly dried my hair with the hair dryer and wore all my accessories and also did a light makeup. Millicent had already gone down. Gee! She's too fast. I sometimes doubt, she being a vampire secretly.

"Hey, guys. Good Morning." I said to all my friends who were busy eating breakfast. I was the last to come as usual.

"Hey have your breakfast. We have to leave after 30 minutes." said Stella who had finished her breakfast.

There were pancakes and coffee for the breakfast. Really, I miss home already and also breakfast made by my mom.

I finished my breakfast and took all my important stuff. We were going to stay there till the fair ended. I know we were going to miss school but we had already informed about it to the principal and management so there was no problem.

We started our journey by 8:00 am or 8:15 am. We reached their exactly by 10. We were on time. We went towards our stall and checked everything. Also put up the banner and prizes. Then we decided the shifts.

 First it was my and Jaxton's shift and we were followed by Stella and Sophia. The third shift was occupied by Rhys and Millicent and fourth shift by Claire and Ian. The fifth shift was taken by Jake. These were the shifts for being present on the stall.

The shifts for being with the team were different. The first team was going to be supervised by Jake and Stella and the second team by Ian and Claire. The third team by Millicent and Rhys whereas the fourth team by me and Jaxton. The fifth team was going to be looked over by Jake and Ian and sixth team by Stella and Sophia. The seventh team was under mine and Jaxton's supervision and eighth team by Millicent and Rhys and the ninth team by Stella and Sophia and tenth team by Claire and Ian. I know all of this is so confusing but once all this is on the paper was easy to understand.

So as usual, I and Jaxton did our work and when we got our break, we both ran towards our own favorite stall. Jake as usual went towards the horror house whereas my mind was fascinated by the hot air balloon ride. I was waiting for that from the day I got to know about it. There was a big line but some of them either went together or some went to some other stall.

My chance came after at least 20 minutes. But when it came, I was excited. I went into the carrier and after few minutes, I was flying in the air and I could the whole fair setup also I was able to see the border of our territory i.e. the woods. By the time vied the scenery, I was far away from the fair but I was able to see the fair area.

Suddenly I saw people in the fair were screaming and running here and there and suddenly some alerts were given signaling danger. I didn't understand why all were running and screaming? But suddenly something caught my eye.

There was a tornado in front of my eyes and it was moving towards me with great speed. Luckily, it passed by the fair and not through the fair. But it was moving directly towards me.

 I tried to change the direction of the hot air balloon but it didn't move a little. I knew that now no one can save me from dying. I had few minutes left. I told goodbye to my friends and family as tears rolled down my cheeks. Because I knew that I won't be able to survive this tornado.

And in few minutes my balloon was trapped by the tornado and now I was spinning in the tornado with great speed but I didn't flew away as I held the rope of the balloon. The hot air balloon began to descend in the tornado in circular pattern which made me dizzy.

My vision started to blur and now I wasn't able to see anything and I blacked out.....

 My head began to ache badly. My vision was not clear. My vision was blurred and full of mist. I tried to calm down myself but all in vain. The headache was getting worse as the time passed. I also noticed a wound on my forehead as my fingers got stained with blood when I touched my forehead. I was not able to see but I could only hear chirp of birds, sound of woods and sounds of other wild animals. I was sure that I was in the Faynights Woods. It was a dense forest with trees surrounding from
