  Yes it was my father , my father's eyes and my father's body . But I could swear upon my honor that this man does not have my father's soul , my dad would never hurt a fly , and we have just saw him eating a dog .

The feeling of fear had subsided away as my father stepped right in front of us , my brain couldnt realize what was happening and I wished that this was just a mere dream and my mother would wake me up at any moment .

My dad's eyes filled with tears and he looked so sad , he called my name and my brother's . But we both were still under the effect of the shocking thing we had just witnessed .

Grey took a step back and dragged me back with him when our dad tried to reach us .. " Im sorry ! " he mumbled under his bloody teeth . My heart was shattered to pieces to see my father like this , he seemed so sad , his eyes were filled with tears and he kept apologizing to us ." I cant , please forgive me my dears " I could tell from the regret in his tone that he really couldnt help it , what ever he was apologizing for .

" stay away from us .. " Grey almost yelled at him when he tried to take my hand . I didnt move back , after all this was my father , and I still felt safe being around him . " Its okey Grey .. it's okey ". I gave my brother a comforting look and reached my dad's hand .

His hand was so warm , almost burning .. but I didnt mind , I have missed him so much and all I wanted is to make sure he will be okey . " Where is my mom , dad? " I asked in a hesitating voice . But he didnt answer , instead the look in his face changed , the "I am sorry look" he gave us faded away . He looked at me like I was a food , like I was something that he wanted to eat . He held my arm so tight as he came closer .
" Awww , dad you're hurting me ! ." I yelled out of pain but still he didnt let go of my arm .

I could see him struggling not to hurt me , he parted his teeth to bite me , then he closed his mouth tight . I did not move , I knew I was in danger but I felt so sorry for him and in a way this man was still my father , he was trying his best not to follow his desire to bite me .

" Aaah , my arm ! "  my dad wouldnt let go .
" You're hurting her ! " Grey yelled at him as he pushed him away . My dad fell on the grass , he wasnt moving .. for a while he just layed there .

The sun had allready sank  behind the trees , I felt worried about him . Why wasnt he moving , I reached for the flashlight I stole from the cabin and turned it on ..

" Emma dont ! " Grey warned me as he tried to stop me . I did not listen to him , I stepped closer to where my dad was . He was facing the grass , I noticed that he was bleeding , he fell on a rock .

" Take this ! " I gave the flashlight to Grey as I squated next to him . " dad , can you hear .. " before I could finish my question . He turned his face towards me and bit my hand .

The pain was total , it was like my hand got stabbed by a million knives at the same time . Grey helped me up , while my dad looked away and  kept making the most weird noises a human being can ever articulate .

" Let's go , Come on ! " . Grey tried to run , as my brain tried his best to undertand what had just happened .
" Emma , please ! Lets go . " it was so hard to run with all the pain in my hand . But we had to , as we ran not far away from him he called my name and I stopped .

" Emma ! I am sorry darling .. help me baby , please . " My dad broke to tears , I could hear him sobbing . " Dont ! This man is not our father .. not anymore ." Grey's voice held sadness in between his words . But he kept himself together for me .. for us .

I kept my flashlight on my father's body  as he struggled to get himself up . He stood on his feet walking toward me , his lips drew back as he bared his teeth at me . I could tell that we were in a real danger .

" dad , please dont " I begged him  , trying to find so little of humanity left in him . But appearantly there wasnt any .

A gunshot exploaded into the quiet woods , making its way right into my dad's head . His brain splattered all over the place while bits of his skull fell on the grass .

" daad ! " Grey called walking past me into the laying corpse of my bygone father .

My knees were too weak to hold my weight , I fell on the grass crying . I felt my heart bleeding from inside my body , this all thing was so much for me . Nothing would break the pain away , I lost my father just now . I hoped to die a thousand deaths than seeing my father dying in front of me .

Grey held what was left of my dad's body and sobbed , he cried like a baby . That broke my heart .

Footsteps were heard closer to where we were , who ever they were had to be responsible for my father's death . I wiped my tears away , If I was going to die , these assholes who just killed my father are going to die with me.

I held a rock in one hand and the flashlight in the other , I turned all around but there was no one to be seen.

" Turn your flashlight off .. " I heard the familiar voice of Mr Andrew behind my ear .
