The Haunting (Immortals)
“This couldn’t be right? Was it another hallucination?
A ringing started in her ears and tiny tremors shook her body. What was wrong with her that she would have visions about killing a man? What kind of person was she?
An unstable one, she thought. One who could no longer tell the difference between reality and illusion. Unlike with the mirror, she couldn’t blame this on ghosts.
A new sound penetrated the ringing in her ears. It was a sharp staccato accompanied by a bite at her ankles. The grou...nd seemed so far away. With a sense of detachment, she watched a tiny chunk of sidewalk break away in a puff of dust inches from her foot.
A flash of movement in front of her caught her attention and she looked up to see the figure racing toward her, yelling something, though the words were incomprehensible. Mai didn’t move, half expecting the image to vanish before it reached her and half hoping it wouldn’t.
Between one breath and the next, everything returned to normal speed.
