The Pasta
Nella was running down the alleys of kerning city searching for a safe place. She was fleeing from a group of shades she found while exploring the subway and managed to anger them and their response was to chase her.

Nella quickly hid behind a dumpster scarred by taggers. Holding her breath hoping she wouldn't be found. Moments later she heard screams of civilians and doors slamming. "Why are there shades here we should be safe" she over heard someone say.

She took a quick peek out of the alleyway only to see a black flash. "crap." She whispered to no one in particular. Following that she took a closer inspection to see that it was just a ninja. She knew he was a ninja because she was hiding in the alleyway by the "jazz" club.

The "jazz" club was actually the thiefs hideout so she never had anything to worry about so she gathered her stuff up and began stumbling out. It was turning light out so she made her way back to the subway careful not to alert any shades. Soon following she was climbing up the ladder to the swamp.

Nella's feet were making sloshing sounds for a while as her feet sunk into the sticky mud slowly. She had to keep moving because the swamp was dangerous at night also because if she didn't move she would slowly sink into the mud. The shadows were dancing on the trees around her. She was growing restless "How soon will I get there?' She said to herself. Well to be exact she was about 2-3 minutes away but she never knew that.

Minutes later she could see a faint light flickering a few 10 meters away. She approached the light thinking it was the house she was invited to. But before she could get any closer she heard a blood curdling scream and a shade appear beside her. It had almost appeared out of thin air but yet again they ARE ghosts. She fell to the ground due to sheer fright and stumbled to get back up. The shade was getting close but now she was on her feet.

She screeched and bolted for the house even though it was close. As soon as she reached the door she ripped it open and stumbled into the living room. Oh Nella you have such bad luck. There were operating tables everywhere each with a mumbling thing formerly a human sprawled out onto the tables. The body's were cut open each cut looked to her precisely made by the heart. In the cavities of one corpse she managed to see nothing but a black void.

"Where the hell am I?" she whispered fearfully. moments later she was struck by the horrific stench of what seemed to be death itself. She gaged disgustingly and heard movement behind her. Nella turned around as fast as her body could manage to see a face unlike others. Well it wasn't really a face just a chalk white face with a grewsome grotesque lump under the right eye socket. The reason I say eye socket is because he didn't have an "eye" but just a milky white marble in both sockets.

Nella screamed at the horrific being facing her. His face slowly contorted into a smile with some unknown black liquid seeping from his mouth. "Ohhhhh oh oh what do we have here?" he slowly muttered almost unheard Nella explained of how she wouldn't tell anyone of what had happened if he let her go. To which he responded "I'm Soooo so so so sory dear i'm afraid I caaaannn't let you do that" to with her response was a shreik of pure terror and agony.

Nella sprinted along the hallway and bloodstained carpet hoping for an escape route. She was filled with bliss when she came upon a room with a window until she heard quick muffling footsteps following her. She quickly full of panic entered the room. She now started to sob because there was nothing to break the window with. She gave up lost her will to live and lay in the corner.

He now opened the door leading to Nella and slowly made his way toward her. She couldn't stop thinking of all the gruesome things he could do to her. But in one swift move he took his knife from his lab coat and slowly raised it. Nella had an idea and she had to do it now. She rolled over to dodge his attack thus getting his knife stuck in the wall giving her a chance to escape. Nella now given a tiny chance at freedom ran for her life.

Ducking through the narrow doorway she now entered the livingroom, not looking back she sprinted out the door and into the inky darkness. Of course he followed after her gaining land because he was NOT human and definitely fast. A few minutes of meaningless running through the swamp failed her as she screamed when she fell.

She quickly clasped her hand around her mouth but she was too late. He was right next to her he slowly raised his sword to cause terror and panic as he slowly sunk it into her heart. She was beyond saving she was no bleeding rapidly and losing major blood. she muttered one last word "noon." but she was cut off when she lost a substantial amount of blood and slowly died in much pain. But don't worry she passed out due to pain and didn't suffer THAT much.

He know was dragging her back to his hut through the mud as quickly as he could not letting himself get caught so he could finish the ritual. He was lucky that she came because he only needed one more heart to finish the elixir. He was power hungry as she now lay as just another body in the living room as he slowly stirs his murky red concoction in his kitchen.

Luckilly some brave soul reported Nelly missing when she was looking for her aunts cabin and never returned and the cops eventually found her corpse. That man was deemed a psychopath and was placed in a mental institution and locked for eternity. But luckily he never finished his concoction or I wouldn't be here.

Epilogue

The house was scrubbed down and emptied by the police and now slowly mother nature claims the house but you can still find it and just so you know the ritual involved ripping the soul out and devouring the heart which would mean her spirit still wanders asking for help.
