Chapter 48- Bad day

thud thud

Two sounds reverted one after another as both the soldiers fell like windless boards, their eyes hollow with mouths flushing a bit of saliva, their muscular bodies falling flat on the floor with soon enough a sound reverberating inside the library.

GASP

"Wh-what happened to them?!"
