Crying was heard though the two story house as a small baby wailed in it's crib. "Honey, can you get Scarlet?!" Wanda called from the kitchen. Her husband, Frank, had just walked into the kitchen and spun on his heels, mumbling a yes, and walked back out and started up the stairs. Halfway up them he ran into their eldest daughter named June. She was running down the stairs with both her ears covered, ignoring the collision with her father, and ran straight into the kitchen.

Frank sighed as he got to the top of the stairs to find their five year old son at the doorway of the baby's room. Daniel look over at his father and ran over to him, "I can't get her to shut up! Please make her shut up dad!"

Then there was a crash from the baby's room and then.....silence. Frank ran to the doorway of the room and saw a figure dressed in black holding Scarlet in it's arms. Then the figure looked up at him and he gasped, I know that face!  He thought to himself. The face before him looked just like his past wife's face, That can't be.....she's dead He thought to himself. The figure put the baby down and he saw it.....the blood stain and bullet in the chest area where her heart would've been.

The figure of the woman had leaned over the body of the sleeping child and smiled, but her smile had rows of monster like teeth instead of human. Frank slowly started inching his way over to the baby as the dead woman disappeared, he then heard a sickening snap and thud behind him. He turned around to find his son laying on the ground behind him, neck snapped, and blood pooling out of his open mouth....he kneeled down in front of his dead son and began sobbing. He heard the thumping footsteps of someone running up the stairs and towards the room. He looked up and saw June standing at the doorway of the room, eyes widened and mouth hanging open in horror.

"What the hell happened....?" She asked her sobbing father in a quite voice. Then June heard a strange voice humming from the kitchen, That doesn't sound like mom..... She thought to herself as a loud familiar thud sounded from the kitchen as the humming continued. This time the humming was a little bit louder and it didn't seem to be coming from one place now, instead it sounded like the house itself was humming the strange tune. She then saw what looked like a woman dressed in all black walking slowly up the stairs with blood dripping from her wound, mouth, hands, and the dress itself seemed to be dripping blood from everywhere on it. Then the woman ran at her with unhuman like speed and.....


You loved me then shot my heart,

I loved you then died from your hate,

Now I've come to cause you pain
