to run by.

He heard a sharp crack noise behind him , he quickly turn seeing the whole park snarling at him viciously reviewing their fangs with wide red eyes locked on him.

One of the wolves charges , pound on henry , henry wedging it with his hand immediately  flipped it over and it scratches his hand with its claws, the wound were deep causing blood to gush out rapidly, Henry grunt in pain  as he quickly jerk up and make a dash, others charges and run after him.  He manage to get out within their range, as he run towards a cliff. He reaches to the dead end , the only route to escape is turning back and its blocked by the wolves as they approaches slowly snarling at him . henry had no choice . to be eaten by the wolves or jump of the cliff . the wolves lunched their attack as he jump off the cliff screaming loud .

He jerk up from the bed, sweating, his scream woke up his wife who was deep as sleep his children and some near by neighbours .

" honey " 

Jane pat on henry who was seriously gasping for air . 

' I'm okay , I'm okay ,

 he felt a sharp pain on his right arm, he lift it up and saw the exact wound mark he got from the attack. 

' oh no , this can't not be ,

 he glanced at his wife

 " how did you get those scratches" 

she quired .

" it real, oh God it's real " 

" what's real" ?

 Jane asked this time feeling uncomfortable about her husband acting weird . 

" the nightmares the are real " .

****

In the name of the father , the son and the holy spirit, any evil power on this house, manipulating this family should be consumed and destroyed by the holy ghost , the rev said as he sprinkles the ' holy water' around the house . 

"something is not right , something evil dwells here I can feel its present ,

 the rev father said .

"We bought this house not less than a year, is this house hunted or what ? 

Henry asked the rev father as he wait patiently for an answer .

" I don't know , but something evil dwells here , I can feel it.

 The rev father gestured on Henry's hand

 " your wounds, you said one of the the wolves attacks you "

 he asked henry looking at his hand 

" father I'm still wondering how can someone get wounded in a dream and see the same wound in real life ". 

" you see my son , 

the rev father stops as he cleared his throat, "fire is a beautiful thing , it can bring happiness , it can bring pain, depending on how you use it." Yes sometimes when you die in dreams , you die in real life. That what is called evil projection  , evil attacks . if they can kill you in dream , then you are just like an ant to them in real life that they can just stamp on as easily as that . that's why if you are not strong in being , you have to be strong in spirit .

This witch that is hunting you did you do any thing in the past , or your ancestors . " you cant solve a problem when you don't know the root... 

Let me tell you son sometimes when you do things it won't hunt you but your children's children ..something we called generational course 

Henry stood there speechless as he start getting flash back 

"Ellen told her that some people connected to him did something. Flashes through his mind .

 

 

chapter Ten

 

 

Ellen was sitting on a couch outside the field  , enjoying the fresh cool air. 

 

" hey, how are you ?

The voice came from right behind her. It was henry , she was surprise and at the same time shock she didn't answer Henry's greetings but greets back 

 

' good day sir, how are you ? 

 

She said politely. Henry let out a sigh ,

'to be honest  I'm not fine ' 

Ellen doesn't want to show interest . 

' well, my kids the seems to love you', 

Henry complimented . Ellen was speechless she only nod her head 

" well do you enjoy, you know hanging around with them ?.

 Ellen doesn't want to start a conversation with henry  , or answer any of his questions. She has No choice than to co- operate .

 ' I do sir , 

she answered trying hard to keep her composure and to avoid anymore questions . 

 

"okay that's good, Ellen can you please forgive me if I have done something wrong to you or people connected to me did.. 

 

Ellen gulp down bubbles foaming on her throat '

 Ellen replies in a gentle manner .

 " look you don't have to pretend you told Linda about ......... 

" but that's was only a joke 

Ellen cuts in 

besides the story is a myth , just trying to impress the kids .

" ever since you came into my house , everything has change . henry said

  " sir if you want I can quite the job . 

Ellen said boldly showing seriousness all over her face .

 ' no no no henry tap on his head what I'm I even thinking' discussing this with this poor girl

The questions runs through Henry's mind . ,' I'm sorry if I push too far..

 

 "Daddy, daddy'

 the voice interrupts

 ' I wanna take a walk with nanny Ellen down the street. 

Linda yells as she run towards them

. " okay honey  be careful out their okay. 

 

Linda and Ellen strolled along while henry deep inside keeps suspecting ellen as he watches Ellen and Linda disappears into the thin air .

*****

Henry keeps smacking his head as he walk down the bathroom he squeeze the tap water runs through , he let out his palm allowing water to full in before he splashes it all over his sweat full  face as he look at the mirror only his pale face and shadowed eye looking right back at him. He haven't had a healthy sleep due to the nightmares, he could feel his brain aching . he need a long rest .

He let out a big sigh as he bent down toward the washing basin 

Rubbing his hair forth and to as his stretches out his palm towards the running water , he splashes it all over his face. He breath heavily gasping out for like his was been choke, his heart seems to be pupping faster . he felt all kind of feeling all over his body  it felt strange like some cold air is running down through his veins . he caught sight at the wall mirror, he saw his reflection glaring viciously at him, he was shocked

His reflection was suppose to mimick everything he dose, instead it was still glaring at him, he wipe some of the vapour around the mirror to be sure , to have a clear view . he peered closely but the image changes in what seems to be a ghost form. It was all black and hollow, black socket and mouth 

Henry stumbled back in fear as he slip off hitting his right side check hard on the tied floor, he manage to stand up after few minutes staggering as he use the washing basin for balance , his head aches . he look at the mirror again , it was gone and this time its was his reflection .

He staggered out from the bathroom , he felt a sharp pain right on his right ear , he holds it trying to cease the pain . 

He hard a sharp hissing sound flew by he look around to see where it was coming from but he could not detect any exact spot .

He start hearing hissing and strange language all over , inside his head

It was echoing like it was coming directly from an empty tunnel. He places both hands on his head, he let out a loud scream which attracts his wife who came running , slaming the door open only to see his husband holding both hands on his head screaming 

 stop , stop , I heard enough stop  as he flip his head side to side roughly . Jane ran towards henry  " calm down, calm down ,  she yells trying to get hold of henry    "They won't stop , they won't stop they are in my head they won't stop .  henry cry out as he twitches side to side giving his wife a hard time.   Who won't stop , what's in your head  Jane ask as she make more effort to get hold of henry who's twitching roughly .   I don't know , they won't stop ah stop please stop I heard enough.  Jane swing henry slapping him hard that someone downstairs could hear it . Henry regaining himself , the hissing stop. Henry breath heavily as he start to sob Jane who's exhausted , panting and gasping like a fish out of water . honey calm down ,  she pat on his shoulder  *****************   chapter eleven
