Survival

Smirk

There he was.

At the mall.

Human haunting.

You may wonder, why the mall? A place full of people.

Let me explain.

When you're at the mall you don't pay attention at your surroundings, you don't see serial killers, you see normal people.

Luke was nearly invisible at the mall.

Nearly.

There she was.

An innocent cashier who didn't know she's his next victim.

Luke has been watching her for months, weird thing is, he didn't have the need to kill her. He wanted to, but he couldn't.

37.

37 dead woman were buried in the innermost place at the cemetery.

Nobody knew they were there.

For the first time, after killing 37 innocent souls, he couldn't do the job.

He stood up from the seat and walked into the store Katherine Todd was working at.

"Hello sir, may I help you?" she asked.

"Yes, actually, mind telling me your name?" Luke smirked.

That deathly smirk.

Katherine hesitated for a second, but come on, there was nothing wrong with telling her name to a boy who probably she'll never see again.

Oh she was so wrong.

Dead wrong.

"I'm Katherine, Katherine Todd"

"A pleasure Katherine", he acted normal, he already knew her name, in fact, he knew everything about her.

"I'm Luke Hemmings"
