Hazel lay still on the hospital bed, her body wrapped in white bandages, a stark contrast to the sterile environment. Suddenly, with a surge of energy that seemed to defy the laws of physics, she bolted upright. Her movements were clumsy and desperate as she lunged at Zora, her bandaged arms locking around Zora's neck in a vice-like grip. The eerie moans escaping her lips turned the room into a scene straight out of a horror movie- she moved like a zombie!
The scene was completely chaotic. My eyes were glued to the unfolding drama, and I couldn't help but exclaim, "How on earth did she get up?"
Clearly, Hazel had been provoked beyond her limits, exhibiting a strength that was downright superhuman.
At first, Zora seemed frozen in shock, her body stiff with disbelief. The scene had unfolded with such abruptness that it was hard to process, much less react.
But it didn't take long for Zora to snap out of her daze and begin to struggle fiercely, her instincts kicking in as she sensed the imminent danger to her life.
Despite Zora's efforts, Hazel's grip remained unyielding, her determination evident as she exerted more pressure.
Jessica, who had been at a disadvantage up till now, was suddenly free from the confrontation and stumbled backward, her eyes wide with fear as she watched Hazel's movement.
Zora's fight became more violent, her hands pounding against Hazel's arms with all her might. The intensity of the scene sent chills down my spine, making me wonder how much pain Hazel was enduring with her deep burn wounds.
Hazel's response to the pain was to let out a furious howl, "You... you deserve to die! You have to pay for this with your life, atone for it..." Her cries were filled with venom and vengeance.
Suddenly, Hazel's head dipped, and I couldn't quite grasp what she was intending to do. But then came a moment so ghastly that it was seared into my memory: Hazel twisted her head sharply, and Zora's blood-curdling scream echoed through the room as Hazel's mouth became stained with blood.
I couldn't help but gasp, "Oh my God... what was she doing?"
Hannah quickly clarified, "Hazel must have bitten off Zora's ear!"
The combination of Hannah's words and the gruesome sight made me gag involuntarily, yet I couldn't tear my eyes away from the video.
Driven by pain and desperation, Zora managed to throw Hazel off with brute force. Hazel, who had been partially suspended in the air, was flung from the bed like a ragdoll, landing on the floor with a thud.
A collective gasp rose from the onlookers at the doorway, "Oof!"
The chaos that ensued within the hospital room was punctuated by Zora's continuous, agonizing screams.
Meanwhile, Jessica, with a cruel smirk on her face, remarked with scorn, "Serves her right! That lousy nanny had it coming... Ha!"
