Life On The Inside

Chapter 2

The man was doing what he does every Wednesday, and well everyday. Looking for a new girl to rape and murder. He was in Denver now, driving around clubs, pubs and cinemas. He had his eyes set on a short brunette girl. She looked about 19 maybe older. She wore Jean shorts and a tank top.

He pulled up just around the corner assuming that's the way she'd walk. She did. He honked at her, rolled the window down and called her out. "Hey. What's up?" She was impressed by his car and liked his voice. She walked to his car. "I saw you in the club. I wanted to say something but was a little shy." He looked at her body closely but kept good eye contact so he wouldn't seem too creepy. "That's sweet. Maybe you could give me a ride home or something." Her voice was slightly high but it wouldn't matter anyway. She got in, then he took her away. "My apartment is just up here." It was a long stretch of road but he turned off. "Hey it's up this street. Just on that..." He was fixated on the road ahead. His face returned to the way it was. Incredibly creepy and threatening. He pulled up to a cheap hotel and let her out. "Oh. You wanna do it here? Well I do live alone you know."

They made it to the room he was staying in. There was a large contraption on the bed. "Oh my. This is some crazy shit." She looked excited but had no idea what was in store for her. There was a loud knock at the door. He opened it to several police officers. They burst into the room but he moved to the side. He hid behind the door and managed to run out. They chased him down the hall yelling at him to stop. He took his gun out and shot at them. It stopped them enough for him to get away. He ran out the back knocking and throwing things to block their path. He got to his car and drove off. There was an officer outside waiting. He chased him down the road. He managed to get the registration number for the car.

The police officers all regrouped at the station. They had set up task forces in cities surrounding Denver and Colorado Springs. They had already located his cottage, discovered the bodies and bullets. In Colorado Springs the officer leading their investigation was Sergeant Muller. A German national who moved to the states as a teenager. They had a board with all the current evidence pinned up. They had his car, his house and his family located. "Listen up ladies. We have surveillance set up around his cottage. From what we know his main targets are young women. So I want everyone to check college campuses, pubs and clubs surrounding those colleges. Or in fact anywhere that may have a high college student activity level. We don't really know what this guy looks like. We're pretty sure it's a male. Caucasian. We have located his mother we're going to bring her in." Said the sergeant. His voice was loud and assertive. Another officer walked in. He was short and skinny. He looked very geeky. "Sandusky? What've you got for me?" He looked at the sergeant, "umm."
"This isn't a time for umm.."
"The girl in the apartment. She gave us a good description."
"Well?"
"There's something else. His mom. She's dead. Hung in her living room from the ceiling fan. Most likely suicide."
"Fuck. What about the description?"
Sandusky walked to him and handed Muller a couple sheets of paper. There was a drawing and written description. "Sir. We've just had confirmation of him heading to his cottage." An officer stood up as she was given the information and yelled it out to the sergeant. "Let's get that son of a bitch. Move. Now!" They all rushed out of the room and suited up. They wore bullet proof vests and grabbed weapons. 12 gauge shotguns, SMG's, tasers and handguns.

His cottage was about 10 miles outside the city, he didn't notice any police around his cottage just waiting for him. He went inside and grabbed his stuff. As he stepped out. Bang! One of the officers fired his shotgun and they all rushed towards him, screaming at him to get on the ground. He gave up calmly, knowing he had no where to go or anything to do. They were very rough with him. Slamming him down on the ground, pushing his body with their knees. Around 4 officers had restrained him with another 10 surrounding, pointing their weapons at his head.
