Mommy's Killer

Dadnapped

"Why not?" I asked. "Listen Ryan, that night your dad called me he told me he needed a little vacation so he told me to watch you." He's got to be kidding me! " I know you feel like I am a stranger, but that's why I am here so I can know my niece." He continued. It was like he was reading my mind. My dad would not leave me with a complete stranger. " I was going to sleep over at Piper's tonight if that's cool with you." I lied. He sighed " Understandable, you should go now before it gets too late."

It was late but I knew Piper's family did not mind. After getting to Piper's house I couldn't feel more sick than ever. " You look sick" Piper's mom pointed out. " We are all sitting down to eat, come join us." I sat down at the table and waved to Piper and Hunter. They had set out a feast today and it looked wonderful. I haven't ate like this in a long time and I felt so much better. The way Piper's family acted you wouldn't think that they sick together and have silent dinners. I know the family was brighter when Piper's dad was around. It just wasn't the same. "Want to go to my room?" Piper asked.

"Piper, can you help me? My dad went missing and I need to find him he's been gone for like two days, he went with some lady at his job, Mariann Morrison."
"Why do all this crap seem to always happen to you, this has to end now. Let's go find him." She said. That felt good. It felt good to know someone did care. "Let's go back to my house I can pull up her address from the website."

When we pulled up to my house, I noticed Uncle Ryder's car was gone. Why would he leave this late? "Come with me upstairs I'll pull up where to go." We got online and found Mariann Morrison in the town of Egnaro. "There she lives, right in the own over, is that fine?" I said. "Well, it shouldn't be much of a long drive." I wrote down the address on a small paper and gave it to Piper. Then, we were off. I was kind of nervous because I already got a bad feeling about how rude she was. I just wanted to know if my dad was still there and when he was coming home. Mariann acted very suspicious when I first met her. I felt like the whole world knew something was wrong with my mom's death. Like as if it was a set up.

"We're here." When I saw the light peach colored house, my skin crawled. What if she was innocent after all and my dad just needed time away? I sighed. "Wait here." I told Piper.

I reached for the door and rung the bell. Mariann opened the door. Her face was completely surprised. " What are you doing here?" She said angrily. " I need to speak with my dad." I told her as calmly as I can. " He's not here, get lost!" She said. "Who's that at the door?" A man's voice came from the family room as I heard him walk up behind Mariann. Uncle Ryder. What was he doing here? "Uncle Ryder?" I said. He smiled "Hello Ryan, won't you come inside so I can explain." "Fine." I said.

Big mistake, as soon as I walked in Mariann put tape over my mouth, and Uncle Ryder began to tie me up. I squirmed and screamed which didn't help because they dragged me down some stairs into a basement. I was so banged up and bruised. There was a man tied to a chair the end of the basement. Dad! She tied me to a chair. "I'm going to take the tape off and if you scream we will shoot you!" Mariann yelled. I nodded. " I expected you to be here, Ryan." Uncle Ryder pulled out a gun and Mariann snatched the tape off of Dad's mouth." Please don't shoot,Ryan please!" he cried. " Shut up Daniel or we will shoot the both of you."

"Why are you doing this? What's wrong with you, Uncle Ryder." I said. "First of all stop referring me to your uncle because I do not consider myself your Uncle, your mother never considered me a brother."

Then it all hit me, he killed my mom. Mariann was like his little minion and she helped him cover it all up I knew it. "You killed my Mom." I said. He clicked his tongue " Let's not be hasty, Ryan you can't go around pointing fingers at me, remember when you point one there are three going back." His voice was cold and dark and his words cut me.

I had to stay strong for dad and me but he was freaking out. Then I heard my mom screaming again. I closed my eyes. These nightmares were giving me clues, dropping hints that I will see this guy again and I couldn't identify him until now. All this time and I had the answer. I already knew. My dad was begging them to let us go and he wouldn't say anything. "I should kill you both now since this man wouldn't stop crying." Mariann said.

"Daddy didn't tell you that he was messing around with Mariann while you and your mother were together did he" Ryder said. "No! That's not true Ryan don't believe him!" Dad yelled. Mariann put a knife to my dad's throat. "You can't deny me Daniel , spit it out." I didn't know what to believe anymore. "Alright, yes I was and I'm so sorry Ryan I am really." He began to sob. " What a waste of a man, he let himself get caught, then cries for his life." Ryder mocked.

Dad cheated on mom, and now that's one of the reasons she's dead? What's wrong with this world! I wanted to cry but I kept on a game face. I was not letting my guard down. " You know now that we got the whole family here, who should we take out first?" Take out? "You know, we should tell them how the story of how her mother died so we won't die with the curiosity huh?" Mariann said. "I want the dad dead first." Ryder said.

She walked over to my dad and put it to his gut. "This one's for my real lover. You were just a boy Daniel, afraid to leave his wife with a kid." She said. Then started to stick the knife in his side. Blood started to gush out and my dad was slowly dying. I looked away I couldn't watch anther parent died. I could hold it in anymore and I began to cry. "Want to know how your mother died?" Ryder said. I didn't answer. He loaded the gun and put it to my head. 1...2...3...
