Bedtime rolled around. Yu Sha felt exhausted every time Hue Chi was around. He found things to get her riled up. That took too much energy. She tossed a few times and soon fell deep asleep without a worry.
Late into the night when the lights were out, outside, mists formed and before long, the mists got denser. The temperature dropped below zero, crystallizing the sea surface. Everything felt so quiet as if there was no beings alive.
Yu Sha tossed and turned in discomfort, similar to the few times she had unpleasant dreams.
Approaching her, a hand with black shiny finger nails reached for her face.
Quietly, she lunged her hand into Yu Sha's face. An inch before the hand reached Yu Sha, a blow came out of nowhere, intersecting the hand. Another kick pushed the figure away from Yu Sha. She was a deep sleeper. Her most vulnerable moment was when she is sleeping.
