Continuation...
Taking the opportunity, Alice decided to ask the cat about this soul vault. She wanted to find out more about this company and this magical world. It was creepy, but it was too interesting!
-You often talk about some kind of storage, but I don't fully understand what it is.
- It's a repository of the soul,- said the Cat, - that's what we call our amulets. That's the name the Dog used to call them. There's nothing strange about the name. It's just that if the soul vault falls into the hands of one of the people, that person will be doomed to suffering, and after some time there is no pity for others. He will be able to kill others without compassion.
The cat suddenly stopped looking at the sky and then mysteriously whispered: "Only two of them managed to save pity for the others, but the price for the two was too high."
Alice shuddered. She already knew who she was talking about. A chill swept through her body.
- A dove? - suddenly remembered about this fragile girl heroine.
- Even now she's managed to stay who she was many years ago,- the blonde smiled, -and the fact is not only that she was too kind, but that her amulet was cracked. And if the amulet breaks into at least one small piece, its owner will die. But we don't know what she had in the past, maybe something terrible, but she doesn't talk about it.
Alice was quiet, trying to process all the new information she had recently received in her head. It wasn't like it was real. Maybe it was a dream?
- Well, who is the second person? - Alice suddenly remembered.
The cat had already opened its mouth to answer, but then Alice jumped out of the backpack and pulled out her phone.
- Damn it! - she cried out, looking at the time. - I completely forgot about the extra drawing! I'm sorry, but I have to run!
- Sometimes,- said the cat, shaking her shoulders, -maybe I'll see you tomorrow. I can come to you after lessons. And besides, I know what your school looks like.
- Hey, why are you kidding me? - the girl frowned. - I started to forget about that event myself.
- I like to be mocked,- the cat smiled and winked at the girl.
Alice carefully climbed down the wooden stairs to the attic, where she immediately rushed to the street. Getting used to the soft air that was on the roof, the girl was surprised when a sharp wind hit her in the face.
"Stupid drawing!" - Alice shouted in her mind, rushing back to school. Because of him, the girl couldn't ask more about everything, to find out! But Alice had to attend the class because her parents wanted their daughter to become an artist because she had a talent that needed to be honed.
- Where are you in a hurry? - Alice was stopped by someone else's shadow.
The girl almost cried out with such surprise. The shadow appeared in front of her so abruptly that anyone could be horrified. Was it the ghost of the street? After all, who knows what the hell this abandoned place is crawling with.
- What do you want? - Alice spoke through the shiver in her voice. - I am in a hurry.
- If I were you, I'd be more careful,- she laughed at Alice, - that maybe you don't know who Leo is. But you're better off. I'm a supporter of him, Nijörg.
-I have a lot more power than all the soul vaults put together! So I can easily kill you if you interfere in the affairs of the Hernagesen gang!
It's strange that Alice didn't feel frightened or terrified. Instead of these emotions, she had only angry anger and a desire to hurt. She threw herself at the shadows, pushing her into the wall of one of the non-residential buildings.
- Hey,- Nijörg snapped through her teeth, but when he raised his head, he saw that the girl had already escaped. His eyes became narrow and he thought about it.
A silhouette appeared right out of the air before the shadow, but it was taller and larger.
- We seem to have underestimated her,- the silhouette said thoughtfully, -how could she have hit you if you had the strength to deal with every member of the gang?
- I want more strength,- Nijörga's shadow smirked, - to surprise them all.
The silhouettes laughed angrily, disappearing as suddenly as they appeared.
