They are both enveloped in darkness. Neither can differentiate their left from their right in this time of utter gloom. Where do they go from here? That was the question at hand. Do they resign and sit down, waiting for rescue as they contemplate their foolishness or do they rush downstairs trudging into the ensuing chaos with their bare bottoms out; talk about a house party gone wrong. Along with the darkness is a decadent queen sized mattress, a bland looking dresser, a couple of lamps and anything else that can be found in a master bedroom; not that they could see them anyway. As their raspy breaths come in short waves resulting from their continual fright, they hear thumping boots coming up the staircase. Gboom gboom gboom.
Even in such darkness, you could use a butter knife to cut through the tension that had engulfed the room, most of which was Ryan's. Lacy on the other hand was keeping her cool long enough to escape. Seeing as how both of these strangers were in the nude being chased by what, they had no clue. Lacy reached across the room and pulled Ryan to her. The fact that they were both naked did not register at all. Survival instincts had kicked in and both adults wanted get out of that house alive. Feeling around him, Ryan grabbed what could only be described as a hanger in such darkness and passed it over to Lacy with which to defend herself with.Still groping, he found pepper spray on the bedside table.

His six-feet tall burly figure gave indication that he was one to use brutal force in acquiring many things; even answers.
"You thought you were going to escape me?!" David exclaimed as his vision clouded over with what seemed to be red lights , pointing and beeping the word "TARGET" at the nude forms in front of him. These two had been the cause of my Hollie leaving me six years ago. Oh sweet little Hollie, he thought. She was filled with so much life. After being found in the forest with blood draped all over her slender form, I vowed to find all those involved in her murder. I have found two. Now they stand here in front of me mumbling incoherently. To think they would get away with killing my daughter is absurd. I vowed to avenge my baby's death and this I will do with shameless pride and rhapsody. Mmm I am going to savour every minute of these kills. "Sir, we have no idea who or what you are talking about," as he instinctively backs away with Lucy firmly behind him. " You are a dead man" says David
