Tucker, under his breath: I'm sorry. I'm sorry! I'm sorry.

He sweats, the faint screams become louder. We zoom in on Tucker's face. It's gone pale. His eye color is slowly changing .

Tucker: No! Calm down! You had to! You can't do this now! Not now! Get a grip. Breathe.

(Tucker runs towards a mirror in the room)

Tucker: Crap! Breathe. Stop thinking about it! Think of anything else, come on think, of something else!

His eyes are now a golden yellow. Nails growing rapidly.

Outside His room :

Tucker's mom outside the door: Tucker you ok? Should I come in? I mean if you need me. Your sister and I where insensitive I can admit that, I just want to talk.

Tucker: No!

His mom: Tucker?

Tucker says gritting his teeth: I'm fine mom.

His mom realizes what is going on: Oh god! What can I do! What do you need! I know you need to calm down. You're worked up.

Tucker still gritting: Block the door and go away! I've kinda tried that!

(His mom rushed and pushed a coffee tables and other things in front of the door)

Tucker's mom: I've blocked you in, ok!

(Tucker goes silent. His mother puts her ear against the wall she hears nothing)

Tucker's mom: Tuck! Are you ok! Tucker! Answer me!

The door handle shakes Tucker's mom stares at it. Then with the slightest easie it opens as if nothing is in front of it. Out comes Tucker.

Tucker: You've got to do better than coffee tables.

His mom: Is this a joke! Some sick prank! You had me worried!

Tucker: No, false alarm. Or should I say was an alarm that got defused.

His mom: Ok... so you're fine.

Tucker: No, I'm going to be on edge. Advice: Don't bring The Hunt up. I know dad's going to, tell Jess I can't take it with all of you reminding me. Help me mom, help me out with this.

His mom: Ok, This is going to be regular?

Tucker: Yeah, for a while. Don't tell dad. He can't know about tonight. He can't know that ..that I'm not cold hearted like him.

Hours later...

A blue pick up truck pulls up. A tall man comes out of it his face having a clean scruff. Hair thick and graciously combed. He too walked to the door to be greeted by Jess before he can open it.

Man: Hey sweet, pea. Did that college accept you yet?

Jess: No, nothing.

Man: Don't worry you'll get it. Tucks home? No one told me!

Jess: Yeah in his room probably playing video games or something.

The man shifts his eyes around the house. Trying to figure out what they are hiding. He walks to Tucker's room. And knocks.
