Sneedville Tennessee September 1999.
Debra Grady slowly made her way down the stairs. That lead to the basement of the cabin she had been staying in with Earl Rodmoore and her son Charles, the steady drum of the loud music that was playing vibrated through the knife she was as holding.
She heard Earl chanting in the distance and muffled screaming." Pick up the dagger Charles just like I showed you! But papa I'm not sure I can do it just now! yes you can boy now do it. Debra rushed down the stairs just in time to see her young son Charles slicing the throat of a young blond women who couldn't have been older than 19. Oh God Earl what are doing! Debra screamed what did you get my baby into? Earl turned and looked at her with a smile. Hey baby I was,just teaching the boy about sacrifice. Debra put her hands against her face and screamed a deep sorrowful scream; Charles turned and looked at his mother with a stunned look mama what's wrong? Why are you crying? Oh baby Debra said oh my baby, my baby, what did I get us into! Come here baby let mama hug you ok Debra said looking at her son. Half smiling Charles nodded ok mama he took. Step forward" Earl stepped in between them he bent down and twisted the knife out of Debra's hand Debra screamed and grunted trying to free her wrist from earls grip. You dirty old bitch" you would kill your own boy? Debra looked up at him and grimaced you son of a bitch I'd rather send my baby to heaven to be with Jesus and his daddy and brother and sisters than let you turn him into whatever you are! Earl laughed heaven! Heaven! Earl slapped Debra across her face hard knocking her flat. Your boy will be beyond heaven once I finish with him! Earl turned towards Charles with a gleaming smile. Charlie boy I want you to go upstairs and watch TV ok? Charles nodded yes papa; Charles walked past Debra who laid sprawled on the floor she reached for him weakly but Earl stepped on her hand Debra she screamed out in pain. Charles went into the living room and turned on the TV. He could hear his mothers screams from the basement and then there was silence.
January 18th 2015: sneedville Tennessee.
They were on a back road now Andrew didn't know what state they were in. And really at this point it didn't matter to him not anymore! He was tired and afraid. Charles where are we going? Charles Grady glanced over at Andrew who was, slumped over. Well we're going to sneedville babe; my hometown, As a matter of fact we're already here. Andrew sat up straight and looked out of the station wagons window! I don't see anything Charles. Charles giggled well of course you don't! The actual Town of sneedville is six miles away on the other side of the lake. We're gonna be staying at a cabin, Andrew slumped back down again Charles reached over and patted his leg. Don't worry baby everything is gonna be OK once we get home. Five minutes later Charles slowed the station wagon down and turned into the driveway of a big two story cabin. Andrew was amazed by it at first it looked like some place a family would go to for summer vacation. He could see blue curtains in the windows a flower garden besides the front porch of course this time of year nothing was growing in it. Charles who's house is this Andrew asked" well it was my mom and step dads i lived here for a little while when i was a kid. I think people rent it out now but since its winter no one is probably gonna be renting. So that means we have four or five whole months of play time. And then after that we can decide where to go next. Andrew just starred at Charles, Charles reached over and kissed Andrew on the lips! Andrew had to fight back the urge to gag. Come on lets get out baby, the cabin was cold but clean. In the living room there was a tan colored vinyl couch and a maroon colored chair. And a small TV was sitting in the middle of the living room it didn't look like it worked, there were pictures of people on the walls Andrew assumed they belonged to the people who rented the cabin. Charles guided Andrew over to the couch and sat him down. Baby I'll be right back I've got to go get some fire wood i don't want you to catch a cold. Charles walked out of the cabin Andrew looked around he didn't see anything that could help him he hadn't expected to see a phone. Not many people used a landline phone anymore, but he just needed to see something that would give him hope. Charles walked into the cabin again holding a bundle of kindling wood,you didn't freeze did you baby Andrew shook his head no I'm fine. Good deal then Charles broke the sticks up and put them into the fire place and then lit it up. He stood there rubbing his hands together ah man Andrew baby this fire feels so good. Come stand by it, Andrew reluctantly got up and walked over to the fire place. The heat felt really good Andrew admitted to himself it felt better than being out in the cold. Andrew had started to relax, when Charles placed his hand on Andrews butt and whispered into Andrews ear I've missed this so much baby haven't you missed how i touched you? Andrew shuttered. Aiden i mean Charles is this really a good time? Charles nodded i can't think of a better time. He kissed Andrews neck and started to take Andrews shirt off lets move over to the couch shall we. He made Andrew take off the rest of his clothes and then Charles disrobed now baby lay down on your stomach. Charles please Andrew started i don't want, Charles slapped him hard i said lay down didn't I ? Andrew cried and laid down on the couch his mind Begin to look for a happy place. When he noticed Charles had his cellphone in his blue jean pocket. Andrew smiled inside of his mind maybe there is hope after all.
