Phil felt nervous once again as he watched his dad bang is fist against the door repetitively to gain access to the house. Dan was in there, hurt, probably scared on what was going on. Adrian was in there too, more than likely fearful for what was happening around him. What was Dan's mom doing? Was she even in the house? Was she helping? Or maybe she wanted to help but was locked away in some sort of cupboard of bound down with ropes preventing her from doing something.

With no sign of someone coming to open the door for the two Lester's, Phil's dad let out a frustrated sighed before grabbing his gun out of his pocket and shooting at all the hinges on the door and then pushing the door down to the ground in front of him, jumping over it and rushing into the house, Phil timidly following.

Phil saw his dad grabbed the guy who had been attacking Dan almost instantly, ripping him off Dan who had been screaming out in pain and agony. Phil swerved past the two of them and knelt in front of Dan who was breathing heavily and his eyes filled with fear as he on looked the situation happening in front of him, "It's going to be ok Dan... I'm here."

Dan said nothing but continue to gasp for air. He tried to loose the thoughts rushing through his head by trying to become lost in Phil's sparkling eyes... but it wasn't working. Fear overpowered him and made him begin to shake violently.

Cuts which had formed the previous night had re-opened and some new ones had formed too, each one releasing more and more blood out to the world as it trickled down his fragile and weak body and gathered in a small pool on the carpeted floor below where Dan was sitting. His hair was extremely curled, probably from the sweat being released from nerves and being out of breathe.

Phil's own heart ached as he leant forward and comfortingly kissed Dan's own lips. Dan didn't kiss back but Phil understood why, even though the selfish side of him made him feel mad at Dan for not doing so.

The yells leaving Phil's dad and Richard shook Dan as he watched as Richard was being forced into a headlock by Phil's dad who, like Dan, was sweating immensely as he tried to control this monster.

Richard's eyes glowed red and dark as they seemed to pierce through Dan's skin. A shiver ran down Dan's spine as he began to yell at him.

"SAM KASSIDY WANTS YOU DEAD, DAN!" He screamed, "SHE WANTS YOU DEAD AND I'M HELPING HER! YOU CAN'T ESCAPE HER AND SHE WILL KILL YOU!"

Phil looked towards the sofa where Dan's mom was putting down her phone. She stared in fear as she saw Phil's dad grab the gun out of his pocket and put it against Richards head.

"DON'T KILL HIM!" the women screamed, trying to knock the gun out of Phil's dads hands, "I... I LOVE HIM!"

"AND I DON'T LOVE YOU!" Richard spat, "I WAS ONLY HERE TO GAIN MORE INFORMATION ON DAN HOWELL. I'D NEVER FALL FOR SOMEONE LIKE YOU, CAROL."

Dan's mom stood back. She was speechless.

Phil's dad pulled Richard outside who was still struggling to het out if the tight grip, "Any last words Richard?"

"SAM WILL KILL YOU DAN AND-"

BANG

Carol cried out as Richard fell out of Phil's dads arms and onto the concrete driveway, dead. Dan however stared wide eyed through the window as Phil's dad put the gun back in his pocket and made his way towards Dan and Phil, "You ok?"
