He creeped over to the final chair, my stomach was in knots as I knew, that only 1 more person was left, when I wanted both James and my father to be saved.
He pulled the rubber from his face slowly.
Further and further from his face.
I could hear the peeling as Delath stepped over to turn my chair.
*creaaaakk*
My chair turned slowly as I saw James sitting in the old wooden chair.
"Well.." he said mockingly.
"I guess there is just one more person left to reveal". He croaked as he stepped closer and closer to me.
His head came closer and closer to my ear as his ice cold breath surrounded my ear.
"Me" he said in a whisper sending shivers down my spine.
I watched as I felt sick to the stomach.
He began to pull his hood from his head. The darkness lifted from his face as his crystal green eyes stared into my soul. Tears streaked uncontrollably from my sore eyes as I stared in hatred at what I saw.
My father stood in-front of me.
I screeched horrifically as I stared at his face.
He began to circle my chair.
Step.
Step.
Step.
Step.
"Mmmhmmmmhmmmm" I screeched as the others remained silent.
My father ripped the tape from my mouth, and without wasting any time I shreaked
"Your supposed to be dead" as tears continued to roll down my red cheeks.
"Well..." he said in a quiet voice.
"During the accident ,the ride crushed my head hard" he said as he let out a laugh.
He continued "I guess the accident made me insane" he said letting out yet another laugh.
He continued to speak "They imprisoned me in a psychiatric ward, until I escaped 3 years ago, didn't they Margret?" He said as he turned to face my mother.
She nodded and stared at the floor in shame.
I remained silent and confused as my father wants to kill me and my mother lied to me for 12 years.
My father continued "It wasn't fair that you lot got away harm free!" He shouted.
"If I didn't go back in to save you Cecelia, I wouldn't have had to go to the psychiatric ward, now would I?" He croaked as tears filled his evil eyes.
"You need to get help dad!" I shreaked as tears rolled down my face once more.
"Oh no Cecelia" he began.
"You need to pay!" He shreaked as he raised his gun at me.
I sat there shaking at gunpoint. My mother screamed in horror as the others wiggled and shreaked from behind their tape.
His finger got closer and closer to the trigger.
The door flew open and standing there was a crowed of police men, holding many guns toward my father.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you" said one of them.
Delath got to his knees, dropped the gun and raised his hands as another police man cuffed his hands behind his back.
The others released us as we ran to each-other as they hugged me in my blood filled dress.
All except one person. My mother. We all searched around the room and she was nowhere to be seen.
