A few days later

October 29th, 1985

Marla was a suspicious woman, she had lost her family in a car accident at a young age.

She could join them finally, even if it wasn't what she had wanted.

The funeral went as well as any other would, but..no one had attended it, except for Charlie.

"Stupid girl.....why did you have to go and get yourself killed...?" Charlie said, looking at the closed casket.

"Always relied on each other, and yet you wanted something that no one will find...all for a cause that's worth nothing......just to ruin one man's life...." Tears started falling down her face as she was forced to lower the casket into the ground, after having to dig the whole for it.

Charlie had taken a few days off from what had happened. I don't blame her, if someone I grew up knowing and loving had come back to harm us, I would leave as well.

Meanwhile at the police station, the rest of the officers had come to celebrate, the only ones that didn't come were John, Dunn, and Donna. Seems what had happened hit them hard as well.

I am glad they weren't there.

"Well, we made it. And that creature has been following us the whole time." The detective said, looking up at the letters of the police station.

"So let's get in and get armed, I don't want us to be easy pretty or something!" Delilah said in a hurry, trying to open the door, but to no avail.

Jen looked back, hearing Ennard get closer.

"If it doesn't open, we break it open. That thing needs to be put down." She said looking at the two. Deep down, she didn't want to kill Ennard, but she felt like at that point she had no other choice.

The door clicked, and opened. But it seemed everyone had left, so the lights were off, and there was no noise.

"Well, luckily, no one will get hurt in the fire fight." Riley said, entering the police station.

The two women looked at each other.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Delilah said, looking to Jen.

"What do you think?" Jen said, a bit annoyed at this point.

The three looked around, eventually finding the armory room, in it were a small array of weapons.

Assault rifles, an light machine gun, snipers, what you would expect to find.

There was a spot for a Tommy gun with the words 'for the chief' written next to it. It was still there, it looked to have pearl engravings mixed with wood, metal, coated blue in some parts, brown on other parts. It looked like whoever owned it took good care of it.

Jen took a small machine gun, Riley took an assault rifle, and Delilah...

"Look what I found!" Delilah came out with a flamethrower.

"Look at that. That should make quick work of the thing." Jen said, looking at Delilah, a bit surprised.

"Let's block the entrance just incase, it will give us some time to prepare." Riley said, leading the way back to the front doors.
