HALLOWEEN - INFERNO

Chapter Fourteen

Allyson tried not to move. She was huddled deep within a bush, her eyes were wide and her hands were glued over her lips so she couldn't be heard by Michael who was surely still nearby searching for her. Her mind raced, she didn't see him coming. He just appeared out of thin air and grabbed her. But she was lucky to get away when she did. Any longer and she would have most likely been dead by now. The girl decided to move slowly from where she was and stand up, her hand reached out and grabbed onto a tree for support as her eyes scanned the darkness. She couldn't see much but with a ray of moonlight piercing the treelike above it provided her with enough light to know that she wasn't be watched.

She moved onwards slowly, her eyes flicking down to her feet as she stepped carefully across the unstable surface beneath her as she tried to keep herself upright. She stepped over a root than moved aside for a rock then went around the puddle. Her clothes were damp, the soft breeze seeping across the park made her shiver with the wet fabric sticking to her body. She didn't want to think about where Michael might be now. He could still be in the park or he could be somewhere else stalking another innocent. Or he could be hunting Cameron who would still be close by. She didn't want to pull her phone out incase the screen lit up to reveal her position within the darkness.

Allyson made her way to the path once more than looked both directions before following it back the way she first came when she was running from the killer. She moved quickly but tried to keep silent, she didn't want to attract any unwanted attention. She reached the steps then climbed up and looked across the darkness, the lamps still provided her with enough light. She hurried back up to the street quickly and still looked around. She almost fell from the curb when a car came around the corner, she waved them down and then approached the drivers side window when the car stopped. The window came down and she looked at the driver.

"Marion!?"

Marion put the car in drive and opened the door and stepped out to look at Allyson who was pale, shaking and still wet. Allyson looked at the older lady and smiled softly while holding back the tears. Marion stepped forwards and hugged her.

"What happened, Allyson?" She asked as she lead her around to the passenger side of the car. "Is it him?"

"He's back! He attacked me!" Allyson said as she began to sob. Marion got her into the car and closed the door then climbed into the drivers side, closed the door and locked it.

"Where is he now?" Marion asked as she reached into the glove box and grabbed her revolver.

Allyson pointed to the park and Marion turned and looked at the large open field. "In there, somewhere, I don't know. We need to find Cameron! He went off without me!"

Marion put the car into drive. "We will find him but we need to get you looked at. You're bleeding" Marion said as she reached over and dabbed her finger at the wound to make sure it wasn't too deep. "It's not deep, we'll get it cleaned up". Marion drove off. Completely unaware that The Shape was watching them from a distance, his body being hidden away within the darkness of the park. He turned and went in the opposite direction. He had a set course that he was following.

Cameron had walked across Haddonfield but he now stood out the front of the Myers house looking up a the property. He was told never to go in there when he was a little kid. His father always said not to go anywhere near it. It was haunted and Cameron believed it to be right. In his hand he held the pistol tightly, his eyes looked over the front of the house before he exhaled and slowly walked up the front path towards the steps. He went up slowly, each step felt like it took weeks. He now stood on the front porch looking at the front door. He wrapped his fingers around the handle and pushed it open, it wasn't locked. It swayed open and he stepped inside and looked around before he raised the pistol and kept it aimed outwards.
