Ashley struggles against Daniel as he ties her hands with a cut lamp cord! Ripping her skirt up to her waist, Daniel smiles broadly and licks his lips as he climbs on top of her!
"Please, Daniel don't!"
"Why? You used to love my hammering, beautiful!
Before he can do anything, a firm knock on the front door startles Daniel. Putting his finger over his lips in a "shhhh" motion, he pulls his pants up, and looking out the window of the door he sees it's the sheriff! Opening the door, Daniel puts his best innocent look on as he says "Hello, what can I do for you, sheriff?"
"Excuse me, is Mr. Wylde around? I need to speak with him." As the sheriff looks Daniel over, and realises the man fits the description that Wyatt gave him the other day. Slyly turning from Daniel, the sheriff grabs his gun and signals his deputy with a head nod! Behind Daniel, Ashley bolts up on the couch and screams HELP and the sheriff sticks his gun in Daniels ribs telling him "Don't even blink, mister! Or you'll be shipped back home in a pine box! Deputy, go see about that young lady. Now, turn around, slowly, and put your hands behind your back!"
Daniel obliges, then spins, grabbing the sheriff's hand and twists it until he drops his gun! Daniel then stabs him deep in the gut, picks up the gun and turns to the young deputy.
"Hey, deputy, let her alone, take your gun out by the butt and hand it to me, easy like! Now, boy!"
Distraught, the deputy does, and Daniel shoots him between the eyes! Ashley screams, shaking her head, and runs to the bathroom! Daniel looks down at the sheriff, who's writhing in pain, and tells him "You look like your mighty hot, could use a dip in the lake!" Pulling the deputies body out of the house, opens the back door of the cruiser and stuffs the deputy in. He then lugs the still alive sheriff in the passenger side, then rips the police radio out! Getting in he drives the squad car down a trail leading to the lake, and stops on the hill top. Getting out, Daniel shuts the door, reaches in and puts the car in drive and with a little push, watches as it rolls downward, picking up speed until it splashes into the lake, gurgles for a minute and sinks like a stone! Satisfied, Daniel walks back to the house, whistling "Zippidy Doo Day"!

Out back, Ashley is pulling and tugging at the lawnmower to get it off the cellar door, but a Cub Cadet is not lightweight! After working up a mighty sweat, the rear wheels roll off the door! She removes the chain, opens up the door and is jumped on by Wyatt!
"Sorry, Ashley, I thought it was Daniel!"
Helping her up, Wyatt limps into the house, the gunshot wound in his foot throbbing! Exhausted, Wyatt sits at the dining room table while Ashley doctors his foot. Ashley hands Wyatt a glass of water, and soon his foot feels better.
"Thanks honey. Where did you learn to do that?"
"I interned at veterinarian office while in highschool."
Wyatt cleans the dirt and straw off his gun when he hears another gun's hammer cock back!
",Well, well. The love birds are back together! How appropriate! See, now I believe I have already shot you, Wyatt buddy. But this gorgeous angel...see, I hate to mar such a beautiful body...aw, who am I kidding?"
Aiming at Ashley, he shoots her in the right shoulder! She drops in sheer agony, as Wyatt fires wildly at Daniel! Around the corner in the hallway, Daniel laugh's and says to them "You know, Wyatt, your gun's getting low on ammo! See, I got me a pair of 9 millimeters! Full clips! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Ashley crawls into the kitchen, and Wyatt edge's towards the corner, ready to shoot whatever moves! After a few terse moments, Wyatt hears a whistle behind him! Outside the large bay window stood Daniel, gun pointed at Ashley's head! Sighing in exhaustion, Wyatt places his gun on table and sits down, defeated!

"Wyatt, Wyatt. You really are tired, huh, buddy boy? Well, you just sit right here, and relax!"
Taking the duct tape, Daniel ties Wyatt to the chair. Everything is stone quiet, when Ashley gasps loudly at the sight of Daniel swinging a shovel and smacking Wyatt in the head twice! Tossing it to the side, Daniel grabs Ashley and proceeds to rape her, repeatedly! Over the next couple of hours, he abuses her in despicable ways, always gleefully laughing!

Wyatt, filled with chagrin and tears streaming down his face, is glad when Daniel puts Ashley in a chair and has them back to back! Daniel then disappears for awhile.

"Ashley... honey, are you okay? Ashley?!"
She says nothing, except for the sobs emanating from her!

What seems like hours pass before Daniel reappears, carrying a large roll of thick rope over his right shoulder, and a large can of gasoline.

Well partner's, this here is the end. Wyatt, I think you finally understand a quarter of the pain and anguish I endured when YOU killed my brother! So, I went to town and got some supplies! This thick rope and five gallon can of gas! See, I'm through now, with you two! I'm going to go home, down south, to the swamps of Louisiana! So, I need all witnesses to be gone!"
Daniel puts the rope in the kitchen sink, stopping up both sides and filling it with gas, puts the rope in, letting it soak, and returns to the table.
"Wyatt, I always thought about killing you in the highest of fashion, with great pleasure and planning! Now, I'm going to end it with a real BANG! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Going back to the sink, Daniel grabs the wet rope, opens the stove and stuffs several feet into it. Then he drops the rope down so it lays on the floor, and begins backtracking while laying the rope down, leaving a trail of it all the way to his truck over fifty yards away! Coming back in, Daniel goes to the stove and turns it on, then rips the propane hose from the fitting, letting the gas spew freely! He walks up to Wyatt, grabs him by the hair and snaps his head back looks Wyatt in the eyes and tells him "You know, propane really is not a good thing to have around a psychopath! Goodbye, Wyatt! See you in hell! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Wyatt watches as Daniel strides towards the pickup, grabs something out of the cab...a lighter! He ignites the rope and laughs, dancing around like he's won the lottery or something!
"Ashley, hang on! When I cut us free, we've got to run out the back door fast as we can!"
Reaching under the table, Wyatt locates the knife, and saws through the tape as fast as possible, and once free he gets up and frees Ashley! They both wearily trudges their way down the hallway, and out the door, and keep on until they are in the woods, and stopping to rest, turn towards the house as.....
KWAAA-BOOOOOOOOM!!

Daniel is ecstatic at the fire, and soon gets in his truck and leaves, driving for the highway!
Behind what was his house, Wyatt and Ashley hold each other, then breath a sigh of relief when three firetrucks arrive! Going around the fire, they collapse by one of the firetrucks, and an ambulance is called as a fireman tends to them!
Finally, the living nightmare that is Daniel Henderson, is out of their lives! It's over, and they hug each other.
