Just another case

Case 18: the metal monster

Time: 11:41 AM

A few minutes later, Ennard had appeared and broke through the debris, behind cover, Detective Riley, Delilah, and Jen opened fire. But..Ennard didn't go down without a fight. It punched onward, toward them.

"How is it not dead?!" Riley said, pissed that Ennard wasn't taken down after the barrage of bullets and fire.

"It lives off Remnant, agony, pain. It won't stop until it's final wish is fulfilled. It wants who put it through it's torment dead." Delilah said, as the three ran to the closets room to hide in, chief Burke's office.

A file laid on the desk, Riley sees it and goes to it, opening it, then reading it.

"Well look what I found here. A file on that thing chasing us."

"What would the chief of police be doing hiding something like this?" Jen said, looking at the two.

Suddenly, the door busts open, and Ennard gets ready to attack, closing off the door way. Luckily..

Delilah looked around and saw a window, big enough for them to get through.

"The window, quickly!" Delilah yelled, rushing to the window and opening it.

"You want us to go out through the window?!" Jen said surprised.

"Not unless you want to be that things lunch. Come on!" He pokes a hole through the flamethrower, cause a small fire to start.

The three rush out through the window, landing on their feet and backs as they run. A explosion being heard from the room they just left.

"Y-you think that will do it?" Delilah said, out of breath once they got far away from the police station.

"Maybe not. But it should give us some time to figure out what to do next. Now that we know who caused that thing to come alive, we just have to find them." Jen said, looking to Delilah.

"Clay Burke and I go a bit back, friend of mine. All we have to do is wait." Riley said to the two.

October 29th, 1985

"Ladies and gentlemen, Halloween is coming, so I come to say that on that day, we all have a day off to spend time with our families. I know this year has been long and difficult, but we all deserve a break." I told my fellow officers, they cheered, our cars were in the parking lot, which we were holding the meeting at. Charlie didn't attend, I don't blame her. John didn't attend either, maybe to comfort her.

When we all had our drinks and food finished, we started getting into our cars, but someone came up to me to stop me.

"Hey, I wouldn't stay where I was if I were you." A voice I hadn't heard in awhile say to me. I looked to my left...

It was Henry, what did he want?

"Ah, Mr.Rose, what do you need?"

"I need you to stand back, Clay Burke. It's not safe." The man said to me, it confused me on what he meant, but I quickly understood what he was saying.

"Someone wants you dead, get behind something. Now."

"What are you- oh no...EVERYONE GET BACK!" I yelled, some weren't quick enough. And then....

Multiple explosions, someone had rigged the card to explode, but who?

The explosion took out most of our men, I was knocked back, Henry helped me catch my fall.

"N-NO!" I ran to the fire and smoke, seeing multiple pieces of what once was police. The ones that weren't dead, were David, and some others, I wasn't keen on keeping up with their names, no one ever really talked with me, being caught up in my work. But seeing someone I knew, people, I knew in the force, dead...I know it wasn't everyone...but...it still hurt...I was wishing it was a dream, but it was reality, and nothing would wake me up from it.

"S-shit...what the hell..?!" David said, coughing up the smoke, trying to get up.

"Damn, Dunn's gone!" Donna said, looking up at David, who got up after some attempts and helped Donna up to her feet.

"It should had been me.." David said, regret showing on his face.

7 were confirmed dead. Which meant there was me, Donna, David, Charlie and John left...why did it come to this..? Who would had done this..?

I looked to where Henry was, and he came to help us. Why did her warn me...was he behind it? How did he know?

"I found where the knife came from....it's not human. It wants you dead."

"T-the hell does that mean?!" Tears started to form, I was going to cry and couldn't hold it back, this was meant to be a day where everyone would head home and be with their loved ones....they would be heading home alright....

"Ennard, something you made have heard about." Henry said, his eyes shooting daggers into mine.

"N-no, there's no way that thing is alive still.."

"Oh I wouldn't be surprised..." Henry said, forming a smile.

"...you made it after all."

My face went pale
