It was hours before the two boys had competely completed all their training sessions and there was alot. As soon as they finish both boys packed up and headed out towards the Jeep to strap the boards on top. The sun was already going down leaving a beautiful crimson sky.

"Jaxson wanna go grab a beer or two?" Chad chimed in.

"A beer? You still need to drive bro," Jaxson responds with a smirk.

"Buzz kill," Chad says calmly hopping in the Jeep.

After Jaxson hopped in Chad drove to the Miami bar. They got there in a few minutes and hopped out. The two of them entered the bar and ordered some drinks. Chad ordered a soda while Jaxson ordered a bottle of beer that was from Canada apparently. He was surprised that they even sold those here. Mainly since Canada and the the USA where in a political dispute.

After a few hours the room started to spin Jaxson looked at his glass and knew almost immediately that he'd been drugged. Chad feeling the effects too looked at Jaxson and smiled thinking that some women had roofied them for a good time. Soon the boys fell to the floor completely out cold.

Jaxson awoke his vision still slightly blurry; seconds passed and he could see a bit more clearly but what he saw wasn't something he wanted to see. It wasn't hot naked ladies like they wanted no, sitting across from him was Chad covered in blood with knife wounds in his chest. Blood was all over the tiled floor around his body. Life was void in Chad's eyes and the look of fear was still imprinted of Chad's face. Jaxson tried to move to get to him but was halted by a metal object around his wrists Turning he saw his hands in a pair of handcuffs chained perfectly to a medal ring on the floor.

"Chad! Chad? Please be ok." Jaxson yelled praying that there was some life in his best friend.

Still a part of him knew that Chad was beyond saving and there was nothing he could do but that didn't stop him from calling to him hoping that he was ok.

Someone wanted them dead but who? They where always kind and didn't piss anyone off but still someone was going to kill him like they had already done to Chad. At that moment fear kicked in he was going to die. As panic kicked in he continually tried to get his hands free trying to remember the video on the internet on how to get out of handcuffs. Nothing absolutely nothing. He was trapped and the mad man wasn't far away. He could hear footsteps coming towards the tiled room he was in the stank of his friends blood.

The door creaked open and a tall man walked in. The mans long black hair gave him a creepy feel and that only made Jaxson try to break free again. The terrifying man continued towards Jaxson the look of the Death hauntingly in his eyes. This only made Jaxson even more scared.

"Struggle all you want kid you'll never get free," the man said with a strange tone menacing tone that could set a cats hair on edge.

"Who are you?" Jaxson yelled in a fit of panic.

"Me I'm what you'd call death itself. I'll kill you and you'll go to hell for your sins."

The man lunges at Jaxson in a way that looked as though he was wielding a weapon. Pain that felt like a knife flowed through Jaxsons body. The man pulls back his hand and Jaxson sees that he was wielding a knife. Puzzling as it was Jaxson couldn't focus on the knife that appeared out of nowhere all he could think about was the pain.

"Please don't stab me again just let me die," Jaxson pleads.

The mans eyes widen shock spreading across the man's creepily distorted face. 'The blade wasn't able to be seen by mortal eyes so how was this human seeing the blade.'The man thought to himself. Then he knew.

"How do you know I stabbed you?" That man asked angrily, praying that the boy wasn't what he though he was

Jaxson looked at the man confused. He didn't know how the man could ask something so stupid. Still for all Jaxson knew the blade was able to be seen by everyone even though that was very incorrect.

"What are you talking about the knifes in your hand you lunatic."

"Shit," the man says and pulls out a M1911 and aimed it at Jaxsons head and fired.

At that moment everything went dark again but for some reason it wasn't a feeling of Death. More a feeling of serenity...
