On Monday September 15, I come home from work.
"Rose? Kids? I am home! Come and give your daddy a hug."
There is no response. I am confused. Are they throwing a surprise party for me. It's not my birthday. Suddenly I have a headache. Then, I smell something burning. It is coming from the kitchen. I run into the kitchen and gasp as it is all destroyed and burning.
"Rose! Kids!" I yell, panicking. I find the fire extinguisher and try to put the fire out but it has no effect.
"Why won't this freakin' work?!" I yell.
Suddenly I hear growling. I look behind me and see 5 demonic-looking creatures with fangs and claws staring at me.
"Where the hell did all of you come from and where is my family?!"
Their sounds almost sounded like people shouting. One of the creatures runs at me but I grab it by it's neck and snaps it. I throw it to the ground.
"Who's next?!" I yell
Another creature tries to run at me but I kick it, sending it flying against a wall. It cries in pain.
Two of the creatures run up to me and I turn my hands into claws and stab them both through the heart. The final creature looked slightly bigger than the other. It runs at me screaming. I punch it in the face, grab it by the waist and slam it to the ground. I star punching it in the face.
"YOU'LL PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO MY FAMILY!!!"
I grab the creature's neck and start squeezing it.
"Aargh!"
Suddenly the fire around me disappears. I look around and see everything back to normal. I look at the creature that I am suffocating and realize that I am choking my wife. Her face is bleeding heavily.
"ROSE??!! OH MY GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE???!!!"
I am in disbelief. I don't know what happened. I turn around and see blood everywhere and my children laying on the ground dead. I could not believe what I had just down.
"No, no, no!"
I am overcome by immense anger and sorrow.
"Rose stay with me. I am sorry. I didn't know what I was doing."
However, Rose doesn't respond. I use my super hearing to listen for a pulse. I could hear a slow pulse but then nothing.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!"
I hear police cars coming. I want to run away but I decide to stay and face the authorities. I tell them how I killed my family. They cuff me and take me to prison. I am sentenced with 40 years for murder. While I am in prison I am visited by Michael.
"What the hell happened?"
"I killed my family. That's what happened."
I thought I would remain in jail for the rest of my life. I want to die. However, a lawyer hired by a mysterious person managed to appeal and get me released from jail.
