My body was relaxed and warm as I held Lucia close to me and fluttered my eyes open. I looked around the area to see if anything changed and to my luck nothing had. I looked at Lucia's sleeping figure completely astonished at how beautiful she was. I placed my lips on her head and gave her a kiss.
"How bad do you think the house is?" I heard a woman ask.
"I don't know those boys are sure to have destroyed it by now." A man answered back. I looked out the window to see two adults getting out of a car and walking towards the door. Quickly in a panic I gathered up the covers and shook Lucia awake.
"What's going on?" She asked rubbing her eyes.
"The parents are home, we have to go." I helped her to her feet and pulled a lighter out of my pocket.
"Go out the window, I'm going to start the fire." Lucia opened the window carefully and slipped one foot out and then the other dropping to the ground. I sparked the flint in the lighter erupting a flame and placed it to the cotton covers. The woman screamed obviously discovering what a mess we made.
"What? Beth are you okay?" I could hear the mans rushed footsteps to where she was.
"Oh my god!" The man yelled.
Deciding not to stick around I lit the blankets on fire and threw them on the bed. I crawled out the window carefully but as soon as got one foot out the man rushed in the door.
"You son of a bitch!" He yelled as he tried to grab me, I swung my knife and clipped his arm making enough of a distraction to escape. I rolled upon landing and ran towards the trees where Lucia was quietly waiting. Smoke trailed out of the house and the sirens of firetrucks could be heard in the distance.
"Let's get out of here before there is more trouble than we can handle." I grabbed Lucia's hand and drug her behind me.
"Where are we going?" She asked a little saddened.
"I don't know yet." I answered honestly not knowing what to do.
"It seems like a warm day out today, can we just take a walk?" Lucia looked up at me with her beautiful shining green eyes.
"Take a walk?" I asked confused.
"Yeah a walk, we are always running so this time let's just walk." She smiled and wrapped her arm with mine as we slowly walked along the trees. The sunlight reflected off of the leaves giving the woods a light green tint. Lucia looked around everywhere inspecting the beauty of nature.
"Its pretty isn't it?" She asked with a bright smile on her face.
"Very beautiful." I answered simply. We stood there in silence as the wind blew rustling the trees, but I could still hear the footsteps coming near us.
"Come on." I grabbed her hand and pulled her behind a tree.
"Do you think he's in here?" One out of the three men asked.
"I don't know, but I do know that he fucked with the wrong police chief." Another one replied.
"Did he really kill his kid and the neighbors kid then light his house on fire?"
"Yep, I don't know what his deal is but he doesn't like him and the chief definitely doesn't like him." I smiled at the realisation as they spoke.
"What are you smiling about?" Lucia asked.
"They don't know about you." I answered happily.
"Stay here." I ordered her and she nodded. I grabbed two of my knives one in each hand and sprinted at the officers. One turned but not fast enough as I pushed his gun upward and cut his body. The others turned around at the sound of his scream and aimed at me. I pulled the officer into me and made him take the bullets. I threw the bullet filled corpse to the side as they began to reload and rushed straight at them. With my blood crazed look and my psychotic laugh I knew they were scared, I made it close enough to the next officer and stabbed into his arm downward as he started to point the gun. His weapon fell out of his hand and the look of fear painted onto his face. I headbutt him in those causing blood to spill out and then roughly pulled the knife from his arm as he screamed in pain. His friend behind him was on the ground trying to crawl away but watching nonetheless, I shoved my knife into my victims neck and then the other at opposite angles and with all of my strength my blades shattered through his vertebrae and cut his head clean off. I grabbed his hair while his body dropped leaving the lifeless face of his fellow officer.
"Lucia, do you want get a turn?" I turned towards the bush she was hiding behind and waited.
"Yes." Her small voice came out.
"Ok, reach into my bag and grab a knife." I turned towards the terrified man giving him a normal smile.
"Just a moment she kinda likes to get the perfect blade for the situation." The man tried to run but anticipating that I tackled him immediately and stabbed through the back of his knee so he couldn't run. He screamed loudly and yelled for help from anyone.
"Are there more of you?" I asked pressing the cold steel against his cheek. He turned away from me and winced as blood leaked out of his leg and onto the soil.
"Don't pass out on me, if you do we'll make it worse." I warned him with a big smile.
"Okay I'm ready!" Lucia cheered as she came around the corner. She stopped at the two of us and held up a large carving knife with a wooden handle and stabbed down into his stomach immediately being soaked in blood.
"I wonder if he's healthy." She made a large incision in his stomach and he passed out.
"Awh its no fun when they are asleep. Bones fix it." She whined adorably.
"Lucia I don't think I can." I answered honestly. She gave a saddened look and luffed her lip out.
"Stop doing that its not going to work this time." And despite my words she continued to stare.
"Lucia there is nothing I can do." Her stare only increased my uncomfortableness and with a loud huff of breath I pulled a medical kit out of my bag and stitched the incision up as best as I could.
"We can drop him off at your house and save him for tonight." My words brought her happiness and she gave me a wide smile and a hug. I slung the man over my shoulder and we began to walk to her abandoned house taking the woods for cover.
*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*
"Do you think he'll be fun when he wakes up?" We were at the house waiting for our victim to wake up from his comatose like sleep.
"I don't know check his heartbeat?" I suggested. The man moved and she perked up in position.
"Where am I..at.." he slowly raised his head up and observed the area of the basement and not noticing us in the absolute darkness. He tried but soon realised he was bound by chains.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" The man called out into the darkness desperate for any form of rescue.
"Are you going to pass on me again?" Lucia asked with a huff.
"Who are you?" He asked blindly looking around.
"Ya know its quite rude to fall asleep when someone is trying to share an experience with you." She smiled and pulled her knife out and purposely shined light off of it towards him. His look of shock became eminent as he realised who she was.
"Your the one from the woods...?" His breath became shaky and his fear obvious.
"What do you want from me! Huh?!" She gave him a cute giggle.
"What I wanted in the first place, for you to watch me pull your heart out of your body." She smiled and grabbed my hand and pulled me close to her, she stood on her toes and leaned in close to my ear.
"Let's have some fun." She seductively whispered causing me to break into a smile as she handed me the knife.
"Yes my love."
