The Liars Curse

Shame on the World

A week after Daniel had lost his wife, he was sitting at his home in the dark alone.

The eerie silence that filled the house brought a strange comfort to Daniel.

The silence was abruptly cut short by the ringing of Daniel's cell phone. As he looked down he saw it was his now former employer.

"What" Daniel said very emotionless.

"Mr. Blackhart this is John HR manager, how are you?" The manager asked cheerily.

Daniel still emotionless answers "How am I doing? HOW AM I DOING?!" He responded now full of anger.

"Let's see, hmmm, where do i begin?"

"I lost my wife, I lost my job, and I have lost what was left of my sanity""so why don't you tell me how the FUCK I'm doing?!"

John almost speechless responds "I am sorry for your loss, but i do have some news i think you would like." Daniel answers "What would that be?"

John, with a more happy tone in his voice says "We are willing to let you come back to work and forgive the whole conversation you had with Issac."

Daniel now completely filled with rage answers "John, I'm gonna make this very clear and I will NOT repeat myself so listen carefully. I want ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with that company! You have all lied to me, betrayed me, and have given me false hopes for the last time. You can take that offer and that job and shove it! Am I clear?!"

Upon hearing this John was speechless and taken back. "Daniel I think your being ridiculous you should be grate-." Before finishing his statement Daniel snapped back "RIDICULOUS?! You watch your next words John, or you will regret making me angry." John now somewhat scared says "Are you threatening me Daniel?"

Daniel just laughs almost demonically and hangs the phone up.

As he threw his phone down to the ground, it shattered. Daniel, with a plethora of emotions going through his head, finally came to a conclusion.

Daniel went upstairs to his bedroom and started gathering some supplies. Some of these included a tent, sleeping bag, first-aid kit, and other survivors/hunters gear. The one thing Daniel grabbed and paid it more attention was his knife.

The knife was about 7 inches and serrated and was pure black. Engraved into it was the initials DB and AB, Daniel and Ashley Blackhart.

Daniel grabbed a photo of his late wife and put it into his backpack.

He then took his gear and threw it into his car and went to the bank.

As he arrived at the bank Daniel saw his friend Milo standing at the exit smoking her vape.

Milo looked up and didn't even know Daniel was in front of her. Daniel spoke "Hey Milo." Took by surprise Milo said in complete joy as she ran and hugged Daniel "Oh my God Daniel! Where the hell have you been, we all have been worried about you?" Daniel with almost no emotion responds "living the dream."

Milo with a look of worry on her face looks at Daniel and says "Are you ok? You seem very off." Daniel just says "See ya around Milo" as Milo tries to say something Daniel walks inside the bank.

Daniel looks at the bank teller and says he wants to close all his accounts. The teller does as Daniel requests. She comes back and hands Daniel approximately $7500 in cash and with that Daniel leaves.

As Daniel sits in his car he sits and thinks for a minute. He let his emotions and thoughts run wild for a minute. Daniel rolled down his car window to the let the cool Autumn breeze flow through. The smell of cinnamon and apple cider filled the air. Daniel then starts his car and heads for home.

When Daniel arrives at his house he grabs all his gear and sets it down on the ground for a minute. Daniel then takes the cash he withdrew earlier and puts it into his pocket. Daniel tosses his wallet which contained his ID, Social Security Card and other important document's in his house. Daniel then started to dump gas all over the inside and outside of his house. He then started making a trail to the end of his driveway.

When Daniel through the now empty tank in his car, he pulled out his Zippo lighter and lit the trail ablaze. Daniel grabbed his gear and started walking away towards the wooded area across from his house.

As Daniel stood in the woods and watched his house burn. He said to himself "The liars will pay for their crime. They will know true loss. They aren't going to Hell, Hell's coming with me!" As Daniel finished his words he walked away into the darkness of the woods.
