Rain fell relentlessly from an ebony sky,thunder rolled and echoed above as the unbearable humidity peaked,amongst the shadows walked a shady figure,Jamie was out on a mission as he lit by the pale street lights of the tree lined pavements his eyes scanned the semi detached 1930's facades. 

Almost twelve hours since his sisters escape from his murderous hands,bearing no malice towards his pretty curvaceous sister.'My big sister,the box!',he sighed out loud. 

then there it was,he stood across the road from the house his sister rented,like all the others along the avenue,neat tidy,bay windowed,semi detached,he then crossed the rain soaked silent road,looking at the door as he opened the iron gate,his heart began to pound as he entered the narrow front garden,as the sound of the rain coming down the guttering gushing it's black formless issue down deep into the drains,arousing something in his sub conscious,as his need to punish his wholesome sister grew with every moment that passed,along with his desire to retrieve the box. 

Trying the door,he turned the handle,'Locked,clever Em!',he laughed,then remembered the spare key,searching he then ran his hand across the upper door frame,then something metal came into his grasp,in a moment he was standing the the pulsing cool dark hallway. 

Finding the light switch a cool blue tinged light bathed the hallway into view,his face wet,his rapture reflected in his dark eyes,

Upstairs he entered Emily's bed room he paused,thinking as if he was her,'where would i put it,she's clever,my clever little sister,in plain sight,almost.',he then stepped up to the tall wooden wardrobe,opening it he noticed the lock,oh unlocked,can't be here then,too easy,he then sat on the bed,then he reached out to the fire place,pushing back the iron shutter,he searched then it came to hand,'No way!' 

His eyes wild as he pulled out the leather pouch,pulling the braid of hair open he grinned,'Oh yes now i have the means to see that bitch off for good!'

Just as he emptied the box out into his hands a shrill distant cry came from the other room,he froze,'She?',cant be..'

He then ready to run opened the bedroom door stood on the landing,then again it came from within the bathroom,his curiosity aroused as he came up to the closed door he paused as he slowly turned the handle.

Entering he looked about the coolly lit white tiled room,still holing the box,he was about to turn thinking,'It's a cat outside,a neighbor gotta be.',when a rapturous melody emanated far beyond the walls of the room,a kind that comes from a music box,it repeated its gentle melody sad yet wanton,it was as if beyond the walls,echoing,then a sudden smashing of tiles as the wall shattered at the far end of the room,the tiles breaking then reforming creating an arched tall doorway into a narrow corridor beyond,the white tiles furnished its walls and floor into the still black void beyond..

'What the hell's this?',he was torn to stay or run,again the tortured cry  louder came from way down in the darkness.

'Can't be her can it?,something i missed from before?',he asked him self out loud ,looking at the box in his hands he sighed,shaking his head as he sized up the new opening in the wall,he then  made his way across the room to the beginning of the corridor,peering in he was nervous as the dark concealed the something they lay some way beyond.

Moaning and sighs met his ears,feeling his heart beat quicken not through fear but desire,'Could be a trap?,i have to know,i want to know!',he said out loud an ache in his heart growing as another female sigh echoed out catching the ceramic acoustics to meet his senses.'

In a matter of seconds he had quickly made his way down the corridor,deep in the dark,a scent of sweet rapture drove him further on,then he saw it,a light,something in its center.
