Amelia began to run, following the GPS and tracing her route. According to her TechTab, it would take her less than 2 minutes. So not that long. Amelia came to a stop as she saw the familiar look of her beloved house. Then she pushed the door open and looked around. It looked the same, except the bodies had been removed. Amelia looked around for clues but saw nothing. It looked like no one had killed her parents. But someone had to. They didn't commit suicide! They would never do that! Amelia sat on the lowest stairstep and thought. That was when it happened. The air turned scorching hot, then freezing cold. Wind blew at her and whipped her hair around. Amelia looked around, confused. Was this a prank? It had to be. But there was no one in sight. That was impossible. Obviously the air conditioning and malfunctioned. Yep. That was what happened. Of course. She stepped forward and looked at the air vent. A pair of flaming red eyes stared back at her. She screamed and ran for her life, heart pounding wildly in her chest. She had never been so afraid! The lights of the neighbors' houses came on. People came out of their houses, looking concerned. When they saw Amelia, everyone ran to her, asking her questions. But Amelia didn't answer. She was lost in thought. What was going on at her house?
