Sliding down the ladder to the tunnel, all that's playing in my head is that bloody scream.
Limping towards the room, I hear char and Jess talking.

"Guys I'm here!" I shout as I run into the room, doubling over from exhaustion.

"Olive you okay?" Charlie asks frantically.

"Yeah..yeah I'm fine." I reply as I stand up, wincing a bit, I look for Simon who's still passed out.
My eyes find a body, faced down on the ground.
Tears start to well as I see who it is.

"I had to do it." Charlie says.
Gripping the chain cutters, I fling them to the ground angrily.

"Olly I'm sorry." shaking my head, I reply in a scratchy voice.

"Get Jess outta here."

"I'm not leaving you" Charlie replies as he blocks my view from Tobias' body.
Focusing my eyes on my brothers face, I see sadness, scared.

"Please just go." I whisper up to him.
Groaning, he picks up the cutters and heads over to Jess.
Cut after cut, I feel Jess hug me from behind, mumbling

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."

Holding back my tears, I turn around in her grip and hug her back as her tears soak my shirt and her shakes fill my arms.
He was your brother I mumble in her hair, sniffling she pulls back.
But he was your husband she replies,
Shaking my head, I look to Char who's standing off to the side.
Pulling Jess in for another hug, I whisper.

"Take Charlie and go to the police, tell them I killed someone."

She pulls back, shaking her head furiously.

"Olive I wont leave you" smiling I reply

"I have to end this."
Charlie steps in.

"you don't have to end it alone."

"But I do Charlie, something I should have done a long time ago."
He starts to cry a little, releasing Jess.
I run over to him and hug him, breaking down in my arms he mumbles

"please..please."

My mind is numb, my body is numb.
Only thing I think of is killing him for good, having his family released for what he has done.
Standing in the tunnel, holding my brother, my mind flash backs as to when I held him when Simon had attacked me.
Pulling back, he gives me a kiss on the forehead and a sad smile.

He heads next to Jess who's crying hysterically.

"Let's go Jess." Charlie mumbles.
Nodding her head, she makes eye contact with me for the last time before they exit through the doorway.
Leaving me in silence, only thing I hear is Simon's breathing and my own thoughts.
Looking around the room, I'm to occupied to even notice a small figure in the middle of the room.
"Hi!" The voice says, snapping my head in it's direction.
I see its Simon's sister, gulping I look at her.
Blank dark eyes starring back at me,
Blood circling around her feet.

"I'm up here silly!" She laughs out,
Moving eyes back to her face.
I can see that's she's looking behind me, towards Simon's body.
She whispers something, furrowing my eyebrows.
"Baby? He did that to you." my voice comes out gentle.
"No! He didn't!" She shouts,

"Yes..yes he did." I reply.

She screams, a bloody scream.
Covering my ears, it stops.
Looking up, I jolt back as shes standing in front of me.

"He did it." she replies, pointing to my left. Following her hand, it points to Tobias.

"How?" I ask her, strugging her shoulders she replies,

"my brother helped also."

Gulping

"I can help you." I tell her.

"How So?" She asks.

"By killing Simon and releasing your soul."
She giggles.

"He won't ever die." she replies, closing my eyes for a quick second, I peel them open and in ashtonishment she's gone.
Her words circle my thoughts, he won't die, he won't die.
Squating against the wall, I slide down til my butt hits the floor, keeping my eyes trained on Simon.

Charlie pov

"Come Jess, hurry." I groan as I pull her out of shed.

"Slow down, Jesus." She mutters.
Rolling my eyes, I grab her hand and haul her out of the shed.

"I need my car keys" I tell Jess.

"You mean we have to go back to the house in total darkness?" She squeaks out, looking at her dark shadowed outline I reply

"Yes, but they're on the kitchen table."

"What? We have to go in the house?" She asks me.  Huffing out

"yes now let's go!" I reply as I grab her hand and run blind through the woods.

Approaching the yard we see the lights are on in the house.

"I'm sure Olly left them on." I break the silence. Jess looks at me nervously.

"You sure?" She asks

"yes I am come on." I reply, running up the porch with her behind me, I kick open the door and listen.
Silence greets the air.

"Follow me." I whisper over my shoulder to Jess, nodding her head she grabs the back of my shirt and follows close to me.
Passing the living and dining room, I start to get this sick feeling that someone is watching us, gulping, I round the corner to the kitchen when I stop dread in my tracks, making Jess bang into me.

"What's the matter?" She whispers into my shirt, widening my eyes at the scene in front of me, I quickly walk backwards.
"What's the matter?" she asks again, shaking my head furiously.
I turn around and bend down to jess' level, she widens her eyes, whispering in her ear.

"There are three bodies, dead, in the kitchen."
"What?!"She gasps loudly.

"Stay here Jess, I need to get the keys."

"Let me go." she replies bravely, clenching my jaw, I grab her arms.

"It's his family Jess, he killed them." I speak quietly in her ear.

"How can we see them?" She asks as her eyes widen with fear, shaking my head

"It's his games he's playing, he's making us see these things." I reply.
"Now stay here, do not move." I tell her as I release her arms.
