Picture perfect

The vents

My mothers eyes flashed horror to me, then to Jay. I clearly didn't understand what was happening then. I looked back at the wall and say some barely eligible words written in the 'paint'. I still didn't understand, but I knew something was wrong. I wasn't sure if it was the death- silence filling the air, the words in the 'paint' or the fact my mother and Jay glowed with horror. They clearly didn't see the words.
"M-m-mom." I raised a shaky finger, pointing to the wall.
She didn't really do much, just look at it. Then, she raised to her feet yelling.
"Aria!" She ran to Aria's room, ripping the door open and running in her room. I heard her pulling curtains open, ripping covers off the bed and searching every nook and cranny in Aria's room.
"Aria!" I heard my mothers yelp as she ran out of Aria's room and into mine, Jays, the bathroom, the kitchen, the living area, her own room and then the basement. "Here, baby come to mama!" I heard my moms scared, shaky voice from the basement.
"She might have found Aria." Jay informed me as he walked into his room as I followed. My moms heavy footsteps ran up the stairs, but without Aria. Samuel was in her arms saying, "Are-e gone."
"Are-e gone."
His words pierced me. Why was he saying that? Why was he saying Aria is gone?
"Watch him." My mom nodded and sat Samuel down on Jay's bed.
"Ok" Jay returned a nod to my mom. She was running down the short hallway, but then stopped. Her eyes grew huge. There was a huge puddle of blood on the floor, this wasn't any paint. It was dripping slowly, with a calm pace. "Look up." was written in blood on the wall. She looked up, the blood was dripping from the two vents on the ceiling. One right above the wall, where the 'paint' and the words are and one in the middle of the ceiling, where the blood was dripping from. I was standing in the back of the hallway, watching. My mouth stretched open, staring at the scene.
