"December 5th, 2019. The missing children cases have all been closed. Along with one rare case of a missing teenage girl. Citizens of Derry have claimed to see the girl around time with a strange man. The girl and the man have never been seen again. Police have all reasons to belive that man was behind all the missing cases. If you see a man fitting this description-"

A roughly draw police sketch flashes infront of the news caster, his features defined, an evil look plastered onto his face, sinking into his eyes as his lips twisted into a cruel smile. Who ever this man was. He was the picture of pure evil, yet, the image still contained some charm to it.

After the image is on screen for a few minuets, the short dark haired news caster continues on, her face emotionless, coated in way too much makeup.

"-please call your local police station immediately, if our children are ever to be safe in this town again, this man must be caught. I'm dawna weatherburg, and you are watching Channel 5 news. Now back to you Rawn, how's the weather looking?"

The cameras quickly switch over to a tall handsome man, his blonde shaggy hair hanging just above his eyes. He gives the camera an awkward smile, obvious he wasn't sure on how to follow up after that report she just gave.

"Well Dawna, it's a cold one today. Temperatures dropping to as low as 17 tonight! Better stay inside and turn up the heat tonight folks!"

You sigh and press the red button on your remote, switching the Tv off before standing up from the couch

"Dad! Better kick the heat on! Gonna be cold tonight again"
You yell up towards the steps to your dad. A few seconds later you hear heavy footsteps coming towards the top.

"What? How cold we talking?"
Your dad leans against the railing of the stairs, scratching the back of his head. Your dad was a tall, slender man with facial hair that was too short to really be a beard but too much to be a go-tee. He always dressed nice no matter the occasion, even to lay around the house sometimes. The only flaw with him was.....he still thinks sagging his jeans is cool. 34 years old, still saggs his pants. But besides that he was a pretty good guy

"Gonna get down to 17 degrees tonight, have you see the news lately tho? It's been about the missing kids and the girl for days. They finally got an idea of what that guy looks like too"

He makes his way down the steps, walking past you before flopping down onto the couch

"Oh yeah? I heard the other day that they did have an eye witness. His name was like Tyler or something? Young guy, blue hair, but when they went to track him down-" you cut him off quickly and reply with

"They couldnt find him and when they did he was in the woods, cut up and bloody. Mouth sewed shut, on the verge of death. Yeah, I saw that too. They can't get anything more from him till he recovers- well.... If he recovers. The doctor the police took him to said he should have died a long time ago due to all of that."

Your dad shakes his head, looking around the couch for the remote

"Terrible what some freak will do to keep someone quiet. "

You grab the remote from the edge of the automin and toss it beside him

"Are you saying you think the guy that kidnapped all those kids did it to him?"

Your dad smiles and picks up the remote, switching on the Tv and clicking through some channels

"Yeah. The boy was the only one to actually speak to the girl and that freak. He must have known something for someone to want him dead that badly"

You nod and look over towards the Tv. He had another news station on. This one was showing images of the missing girl along with images of how bad the "witness" was beat.  He looked like nothing more than a pile of bloody flesh when his head was hanging, his hair drenched in blood along with every other inch of him.

How awful. Who would do such a horrible thing.
