Chapter 20

                  Tyranna

"The house was unfamiliar. She tried remembering where she was, and how she had gotten there, but she was blank.

Her eyes wavered around the room. The empty room. There was a burgundy computer stand, positioned in the middle of the room, and a beige bookshelf in the corner of the room. It was stacked with books. Old, dusty books. There was a window, although the outside world was hidden by the cardinal curtains, Tyranna could make out a faint stream of sunlight. Perhaps it was late afternoon.

A piercing scream suddenly broke the silence, startling her. Tyranna didn't even remember opening the door, or running to where the scream had sounded, but suddenly she stood before something she had never wished to stand before ever again.

A man, was on the floor, a belt, tightly fastened around his neck. Due to the lack of a moving chest, filled with breath, Tyranna could see that he was dead. His face was turning blue.

There were two guys, towering over the dead, or rather murdered man. They looked shocked. Tyranna panicked for a second. They saw her. But she realised that they were looking right through her. She turned around, and gasped, she felt breathless, and her blood ran cold.

Denise looked at the two men, then down at the deceased one, mixed emotions were running through her, Tyranna could see this, only by the look in her eyes. She was angry, yet sad, and then fearful.
