Vicky was sound asleep taking her nap. Kate called after her.

"Vicky? Hey, hun. Imma just go outside and go to the store for a second stay in the bed, okay? I'll be right back."

Vicky fell back asleep. She didn't have to here what came next. Tony came up behind Kate just as she was walking out the door. Tony followed Kate as she got into her door. Tony made sure that something bad happened to Kate. Tony closed the door right on Kate's ankle.

"Ahhh!" Kate tried to open the door but it wouldn't open. She kept on trying to unlock the car door but it wouldn't open.

"Vicky!!! Help me!!" Kate called out. Vicky, was knocked out.

"Vicky, please!!" The car door started cutting into her ankle.

"Mommy?" Vicky walks down the stairs out of the house to save her mother; but it was too late.

"Mommy, no!!" Vicky rushed to open the door and it finally opened. Blood was all over the car. Vicky pushed everything away from Kate and listened to hear her pulse.

"Vicky, go to your room. Wait until daddy comes home." Kate has just enough strength to reach for her phone. "Here, take this. If you need to call daddy then call him. Otherwise, stay in your room and wait. Lock the door behind you."

"Mommy, come with me," says Vicky holding her arm.

"Hun, I can't. You see here?" Kate points down to her leg. Vicky realizes that Kate's foot was cut off. "That means I can't go anywhere. I'm losing air. I.. can't..." Kate stopped talking.

"Mommy? Mommy!!! You can't do this to me I didn't want to hurt you. Please!"

"Oh, you didn't hurt her at all, Vicky. I did."

"Mama, didn't I tell you not to hurt the family?"

"Yes, but why would I want to listen to a 4 year old like you?"

"Because my real mother taught me how to walk, talk, and everything. I don't care no more. You killed my Mommy!!"

"Awww listen, child." Tony kneeled right in front of Vicky. "I don't give a fuck about your family, you understand? I don't care about your 'mommy' or daddy for all I know. I need YOU. You can only set my soul free."

"Well, God isn't going to like that... if I freed you. I would go to hell."

"Who told you that?"

"Nun ya, bastard." Vicky ran into the house and locked the door. She ran up to her room and locked the room door.

"Should've never trusted that ghost. Making me call her Mama." Vicky went under the covers and cried herself to sleep.
