Ikkallin Zo Tu Takku Yo Li Gaaun
An ancient
language had been scrawled on the frozen man's forehead, ancient
symbols in fresh ink. The eyes were left open, the officers could see
the frozen blood vessels and when they closed the eyelids they could
hear some of the smaller ones shattering under the pressure. One of
the officers thought he heard one of the eyeballs cave into pieces
but he wouldn't risk checking.
“Ikkallin zo
tu takkun yo li gaaun.” one of the officers said to the group. “Now
that he is taken under ice he may never rise.”, she took a deep
breath, “That's what the ancient text says.”, she looked at the
ground with a sad look. “At every killing site they leave that
message.”
“Can't
believe these monsters. Using something as pure as ice magic,
something given to us by angels as a means to murder. Officer Jones,
anything else written on the body?” the chief asked his
subordinate.
“No, not that
I can see.” Officer Jones responded looking for any other signs
besides the original transcription she saw.
“These people
are crazed.” the chief said to his staff, looking Jones straight in
the eye. “Don't they think that by freezing him he can't go to the
afterlife, hence why the text reads 'he may never rise'? Isn't it?
Your our expert on this terrorist's group M.O. And thus their cult's
religion.”
“Yes, Sir,
that is what they believe.” she responded with a look of fear in
her eyes.
After many
nights had passed with the stars dancing happily across the sky the
chief lay in bed reading a book next to a lamp. He sat up in shock
and dropped the book to see Officer Jones in his bedroom.
“How? What
are you doing in my bedroom?” the chief asked.
“You're
getting too good at your job, no matter how much I've sabotaged you
you've gotten closer and closer. I'm sorry, I'm going to have to end
your life here with my ice magic.” after mumbling a few magic words
the chief's body became covered with ice and she wrote on it Ikkallin
zo tu takkun yo li gaaun with fresh ink like a child's graffiti.
