Book 1: The Beast and The Harlot (Avenged Sevenfold)

Chapter Four

"I swear, those girls are up to no good." One of the guys said as we sneak up behind the bushes and trees.

"What are you gunna do if they show up again shadows?" The one with snake bites asked.

The guy with the sunglasses shook his head, but didn't speak. Everyone watched him though.

"What is it?" The one with a Mohawk asked.

Out of no where flames appeared in the middle of them. The guy from my dream that had the labret piercing stood in the middle on fire.

"Your being watched shadows." He whispered in his ear.

Just as he said that, he looked right at us and dissapired. Shadows look right after he did. I looked next to me to see Brandy's reaction but she wasn't there. As I turned back to the guys, shadows was standing in front of me with a smirk on his face.

"What do we have here?" He chuckled.

I started to step back, but ran into someone.

I looked up and it was the one with a fedora hat and nose ring.

"Syn, would you please?" Shadows as the guy behind me.

As he spoke, the guy grabbed my arms and shoved me past him to the circle.

The guy that had snake bites was staining at Brandy, hard, as the Mohawk guy held her by her arms.

"What are you gunna do?" The guy named Syn said.

Shadows looked at Brandy then me, "We can use them."

"Why not take their souls to help jimmy?" The guy with snakebites asked.

"No Zacky," Shadows said shaking his head, "their souls are useless."

"What are we gunna do with them?" The guy with the Mohawk asked.

Shadows smirked and propped his arm on the guys shoulder, "Jonny, we got ourself some salves."

"Fuck that!" Brandy yelled.

The Zacky smiled and walked up to Brandy, "not a slave slave."

"Zacky gets it." Shadows smiled.

Brandy looked at me confused.

"Your gunna do our dirty work in other words." Syn said.

Shadows placed his on my face. It was warm, almost burning.

Zacky did the same to Brandy.

"What did you do?" I asked grabbing my face as Syn me go.

Zacky smiled at Brandy then looked at me, "we control you now and you do as we say."

I saw Brandy roll her eyes.

"Shadows, look." Jonny said nudging him as he pointed off into the distance.

I looked at what he was pointing to, but all I saw was small flames vanish.

"Meet us here tomorrow. 6 o'clock." Shadows said serious.

Zacky snatched Brandy's arm, "same for you. Tomorrow, here at 6."

Brandy and I just looked at each other worried.

"You both will under stand soon." Syn said with a smirk as they walked off into the darkness.
