Lights flashed, cutting through the peaceful darkness of Mark's hometown. Screams and explosions echoed through the night.

Mark cowered in fear in the corner of his house as fighting broke out on the streets. Suddenly, the barricaded door was blown open in a massive explosion. The kitchen table flew into the corner and hit Mark.

His head was in pain and his ears were ringing. His vison was blurry, but he could see enough to see his father stand up in front of the intruders.

"Please, I have a family!" he heard his father plead.

The leader of the intruders simply laughed as he kicked his father to the ground and aimed a gun at his head.

"Well, I hope you all get reunited soon." the leader said.

He pulled the trigger and in a bright flash, his father lay dead on the floor.

Mark finally caught a glimpse of the leader's face and gasped.

The leader had no face. The only thing that was there was a bloodstained mask that was originally white. But the most frightening thing about his mask was the simple, yet sadistic smiley face that was imprinted on the mask.

He looked at Mark cowering under the table in the corner and turned to his men.

"Take him," is all he said before exiting the house.
