Chapter 7

With Brandon and Amelia, looking for me, and Beth gone home, and Lauren thinking whether or not to help me, I was tied up to a chair. "FINALLY, I HAVE YOU! I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING YOU ALL DAY, AND I'VE ENJOYED EVERY SECOND, OF SCARING YOU! YOU ALMOST CAUGHT ME IN THAT PLAYGROUND, IT'S A SHAME YOU WEREN'T FAST ENOUGH TO CATCH ME!" He laughed! "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?" I shouted. "I'm Nathaniel Taylor, and I'm an escaped murderer, and I wanted to kill you from birth, your mother, is a horrible woman, who also deserves to die!" He said. "WHAT HAVE I DONE? WHO ARE YOU TO ME?" I shouted. "I'm, your dad! And I told your mother, that I didn't want kids, but that tramp, didn't listen. So she had you, and I've wanted you dead ever since, you got me and your mother divorced, so you deserve every single second of this torture, and so does your mother!" "THAT MAKES NO SENSE, YOU ARE PATHETIC! THERE'S A PLACE FOR SICK, PSYCHOPATHIC, DISTURBING PEOPLE LIKE YOU, AND THAT PLACE, IS A MENTAL ASYLUM!" I shouted to him! "HOW DARE YOU TALK TO ME LIKE THAT?" He shouted at me. He walked over to me, and hit me in the face! "OW! DON'T TOUCH ME, YOU VILE HUMAN!" I shouted, and then I spat at him! He stood there and laughed at me. "You think, that spit, upsets me? Well it doesn't, I think you're just pathetic, and you deserve to die!" My dad shouted. Hold on, calling him my dad, sounds weird, I'll just call him the Killer, because I don't care if he was my dad, he isn't now!

"YOU THINK I'M BOTHERED WHAT YOU THINK OF ME, AND WHAT YOU THINK MY FUTURE SHOULD HOLD? WELL I DON'T, AND MUM, NEVER MENTIONS YOU!" I shouted, with anger and frustration! He started getting angrier and scarier! I started moving my hands in the rope, to try and release my hands! It started to work, as my hands were getting looser! "Hey, dad? You aren't saying a lot! Have you run out of cheesy lines to say to me?" I asked! "I'm gonna kill you!" "WELL COME ON THEN! WHAT'S STOPPING YOU; I'M TIED TO A CHAIR!"

At that point, he was just standing there, staring at me again! Then, he started to speak once again. "You know, I am so tempted, but I can't bring myself to harm you." I looked up at him, and my eyes just changed, and so did my mood! "Oh, so you haven't got the bollocks to hurt me, but yet you have murdered my English teacher, one of my best friends, and a random girl called Belle, I think that's her name!" I sort of shouted and spoke quietly. Then, his mood suddenly changed, and he looked up at me again, and he said, "You have a point! All I've done today is terrorise you, so why shouldn't I finish the job?" Then, whilst he was still talking, I spoke over him "Well, I didn't exactly mean that!" Then, he said "You know what, tonight, will be your last night alive!" At this point, I was worrying and getting more and more scared! He pulled out his knife, and decided to walk even closer to me! (Avril Lavigne is making a new album, btw! How exciting!) I was still untying my hands, and they finally became loose enough, for me to release them, grab my knife from my back pocket, and stab him! Then, many thoughts were running through my head, like 'would I be doing the right thing if I murdered my own father?' Then, another thought went through my mind, 'Kieran, you have to do this! It's the right thing after what he did to Maureen and Ms Hayes, and for what he's been doing to you all day!' I then agreed with myself, he was a horrible man, and he deserved to pay! I finally got my hands untied, and I grabbed the knife out of my pocket, and I hid my hands behind my back! By then, he had reached me, and he was about to stab me, when he took a look at my eyes, and he repeated himself "I can't do this! You're my son!" "Yeah, well you're forgetting one thing about me!" "Yeah? What's that?" "I'M NOTHING LIKE YOU!" I shouted. I pulled my arms out, and I stabbed him in the stomach, and I untied my legs, and I kicked him onto the floor, and I got up and ran! I looked back for one moment, and saw him lying on the floor in pain. Something made me want to run back and help him, but a whole other thing, made me want to keep running! I carried on running, and then, I heard someone behind me! MY DAD The killer, had got up, as he was in no pain, and started chasing me! I shouted "OH MY GOD!" I was so scared now, and I didn't know what to do, my body just froze. But then, I decided to run, to save myself, and end it all! So, I carried on running, and turned a corner, and saw the front door, so I ran to it to try and open it, but no matter how hard I pushed and pulled that door, it wasn't budging! I looked back, and saw that the door I ran through was still open, and I heard the killer running closer to the door! So I ran back and pulled it shut, but then, the killer was kicking the door, and banging his fists, trying to get it open, and he was pulling and pushing on it too, but I was holding onto it hard, so he couldn't get in! I then saw a lock at the bottom, so I tried to reach it, but I couldn't, so I picked my foot up, and slammed my foot down, and it smashed through the ground, and it locked. I then let go of the door handle! Then, I turned and saw a light, and I ran toward the light, (with the killer still banging on the 'now-locked' door), and saw blood on the floor as I got closer! I already felt sick to my stomach, but I had to carry on, as I needed to see what it was! I turned the corner, and saw my friend David's body, lying dead on the ground! "OH MY GOD!" I shouted, and I then felt really sick and I was about to vomit! "David, I'm so sorry!" I cried to his dead body. Then, I heard somebody running in the distance, and I was wondering if it could be somebody here to help me, so I got up, and ran towards the footsteps. I reached them, and it was Brandon and Amelia! "Oh I'm glad to see you guys!" I said. "Kieran, you're safe and alive!" Amelia shouted as she hugged me! "Yeah, I'm fine. But I found out, that my stalker is my father!" After saying that, Brandon and Amelia both said "What?" Then, I heard someone running, so I pulled them both to the front door, to see if they could open it. It was no use! But then, Brandon ran and found something heavy, and ran at the front door and opened it! Then, the killer finally smashed through the door, and saw us escaping! "DON'T YOU DARE!" He shouted. "QUICKLY, GET THROUGH THE DOOR!" Brandon shouted. "Amelia, come on!" I said. I pulled her arm, and we ran out of the door, but we both fell down the stairs! Brandon laughed at us falling, then tried running out of the door, but the killer grabbed him, and pulled him back inside and threw him inside a room, and locked the door! He looked back at me and Amelia, as we were lying on the floor in pain. I looked up at him, then slowly pulled myself up, and then helped Amelia up, and then she looked up and knew why! She held onto me, and we both started running, slightly limping on one leg! He then ran after us, but stopped after a few seconds, and stood there, staring at us!
