NightCrawler✔

Chapter 34

I heard Jacob who was sprinting behind Landon and I gasp and looked back just to check on him, the tall monsterous beast of a nightcrawler chased after us. Everyone stopped what they were doing and began screaming and running. They can see it! Chaos began, and I was colliding with many doctors and a few patients. Adrenaline coursed through my body as I ran. I spotted Holmer arguing with a man who was just as upset. This man look non identical to Holmer. Like they were twins same height, eyes, facial expression. Holmer's eyes widened at the sight of the monster and so did the man he was talking to.

Then man nor Holmer looked a tad bit afraid of the nightcrawler instead far more surprised. I turned my focus to ahead of me and ran to an opening elevator, Landon and Jacob slidding in after me. Landon began spamming the door button. The nightcrawler ran on all fours like a spider. It began reaching a hand out repeating puppet over and over.

"Close the fucking door!" Screamed Jacob holding a hand to his heart and the other to his knee. Jacob and I backed up against the wall of the elevator while Landon slammed his hand against the button. The doors began slowly closing as the nightcrawler neared us. The doors closed and Landon rapidly backed up next to us and the doors dented and rocked the elevator. We were going up, I looked at Jacob and Landon.

The doors made a deafening screech as it opened. The third floor was far more calm than downstairs. We cautiosuly walked onto the quiet floor. A few docotrs gave us weird looks before continuing with their business. I walked and looked at the doors on the floor all having a name on it.

I stopped at one that said Iris Thomson in big white block letters. I tried the door, but it was locked. I had to type in a password.

"Any ideas?" I croacked.

"Matthew's office lock is his name," Jacob said. I raised my hand and typed Toni then pulled on the door. Incorrect.

"Her name is Toni," I stated looking at Jacob and Landon. Jacob shrugged and Landon bit his lower lip.

"Try putting spaces?" He suggested. T-o-n-i. Incorrect, I frowned and looked at them. Landon and I looked at Jacob who knew more about office passwords than we did.

"Well I mean when I met Matthew he told me his name's Matt?" He shrugged leaning against the wall. "Oh yeah and look what I have," Jacob stuffed his hand into his pocket and I braced myself for what I was about to see. My heart skipped a beat and I watched as Jacob slowly lifted the weapon out of his pocket.

Landon and I's jaws dropped to the ground floor and we stared at the gun Jacob held in his hand.

"Took it from the room," He smirked.

"Ok whatever," I fanned a hand at Jacob. Toni. Wrong. TONI. Wrong. I slammed my fist against the door. When Jacob met Matthew he told him Matt. When I met Toni she told me Toni not...

The elevator doors opened and my heart stopped. It was a guy carrying white sheets. I held hand to my chest and squeezed down on my lower lip.

Toni's name was...?

"What could her-Tonya! It's Tonya!" I typed in Tonya my hands shaking with energy. The door snapped and easily swung open. It was a well lit messy room with papers and file cabinets open. There was a cold coffee on the desk in a mug that had a rubbing off smiley face on it that said good morning.

"Hey guys check out that cool lamp!" Jacob pointed to a lava lamp with pink and orange in it slowly bouncing off the sides of the lamp as Jacob shook it. I cautiously walked towards the desk where bits of a news paper were cut out along with files. I stood behind the desk and lifted a piece of paper.

'The Bank Thief Has Been Caught!'

My eyes skimmed across the page. This was from seven years ago, when I was six.

'Shooter known as 34 year old Holmer "THOMSON"'

I dropped the paper and wiped a hand over my face. Many people have the last name Thomson. I continued to brush over the paper.

'He was the father of a six year old girl and wife, named Gwen Thomson who at the time was pregnant when her husband was arrested for theft of $380,000'
