Maria's P.O.V.

Two days is all I have until .. It happens . Until they actually kill Jeffrey and If everything went as planned , I could possibly save him .

Rummaging through the dusty drawers , I found nothing but old clothing . I figured I'd need some stuff from the wood's house before everything went down . Knowing what I was doing was insane and could even lead to my death didn't make things any better .

I moved towards the closet beside the beds , tears welling in my eyes every time I looked at the blood stained sheets . I opened the closet , moving away the clothes . I felt something hard . 

I grabbed the object taking it out , a small rectangle shaped box was in my hold . I opened the box to smile widely when I saw an old picture of the family . They stood together .The parents standing behind the two boys , they smiled lovingly as they held their children . 

The black haired boy had his hand around the smaller , brown-haired boy's shoulder . thirteen year old Jeff stood in the picture with his family , his medium long hair was slicked back . Beautiful blue eyes stared at me , they held pure happiness .

I sniffed , staring at the picture some more before shoving it in my pocket .  I put the box back and made my way down the stairs , and out of the house . 

It was night time , and I was making my way to the building the officers had taken me to last time . I felt like I was being watched so I , by instinct walked to the entrance of the building faster . 

The doors automatically opened and I held my purse tightly . The girl that sat on the desk right ahead of me raised a brow , I quickly made my way to the left hall being stopped .

"Excuse me ?" She called out , My hand shook as I looked to the side . 

"You can't go in there . Visiting hours are over ." The girl said , I rolled my eyes and marched towards her , giving her the paper that the guy had given me the day I had seen Jeff . It clearly stated that I could visit him one time , whenever I wanted .

The girl looked up at me with distaste and nodded toward the hall , not before giving me a key that said '253' . I smiled going to the left . I went down the stairs , a door with a code stood in-front of me . I bit my lip thinking of what it could be .

Come on Maria , Think .. Think ! He put it in-front of you last time ! The image of the guy in the white robe putting in the code flashed back to me . I quickly typed in '1996' , the door automatically opening as I finished .

I entered the hall , looking for the right door . I came across the door with the numbers '253' carved into it . I took a breath , knowing Jeff would be in there .

Hoping he wouldn't go all crazy on me like last time , I put the key into the key hole . It fit perfectly , like I expected , I slowly opened the door and smiled shyly at Jeff who stared at me as I closed it . 

Jeff sat up straight on the bed , he somehow looked calmer . Though his hair was sort of a tangled mess . I saw his lips twitch into a small smile before turning into a frown again . I sat on the bed right beside Jeff , making sure I keep my hands to myself this time . 

"Hey .." I said , scratching the back of my neck awkwardly .  Jeff mumbled a small hello back , looking away .

" I .. I wanted to see you ." 

He nodded to me , staying quiet .

"I have to tell you some stuff .. There's both good news and bad news ." I coughed , and I opened my purse , getting ready .

" The bad news Jeff .." You have to do this ! Tell him , make it fast , It has to be fast . " Is that they're going to kill you ." Jeff's eyes were even wider then they already are and his hands shook .I had never seen him so weak , so helpless . Then again , this is why I'm doing this . 

"W-w..what ?" Jeff pulled at his hair , He stood up and starting pacing around the room . "No no no no ..." He breathed , pulling at his hair . Jeff clenched his hand into a fist before punching the wall . 

The impact was so strong that it ended up leaving a dent  . Jeff let out sobs as he fell to the ground clutching his bleeding hand , I quickly made my way towards him , looking at it . 

It took more time  than expected to heal , and It's just small wounds ! The skin stretched like the first time I had seen it . 

I comforted him , Sort of worried that he'd do something that would hurt me .

"The good news is .." I got up , making my way towards the bed . I opened the purse wide enough for me to remove the huge kitchen knife . I almost laughed , never thought I'd actually carry something like that around , like ever . 

I clutched the knife in a soft grip with both my hands , taking a deep breath . I knew Jeff would be waiting to see right behind me . I turned around , raising the knife towards him.

He quickly stumbled back , eyes wide in terror . Jeff constantly shook his head , pushing himself farther into the corner he was now trapped in . 

I held the knife closer to Jeff .  "No ! Knives are bad , T-they hurt people !" Jeff growled trying to push it away . He cut his hand in the process , moving it back . He stared at the cut , breathing heavily .

I took Jeff's wrist , making him freeze . He stared at me . 

"Jeff .. They are going to kill you ! You want to stay alive don't you ? So take it ! It's your only chance , Our only chance !" I yelled . Jeff now stared at the knife in my hand in awe . 

Before I knew it , Jeff had my wrist in a painful grip . He grinned widely as he pressed his knife against my neck . What have I done ? 

"Our only chance ?" He asked , tilting his head at me .
