The crashing of the waves only seemed to intensify as a lone figure stumbled down the beach. Fiery red hair whipped around her head, blinding her, as she struggled against the wind. Suddenly, she stood still, frozen in fright as another figure appeared in front of her, holding a gleaming weapon. She screamed. She screamed so loud it was heard above the crashing of the waves and the roaring of the wind. The lady fell to the ground as the knife was plunged deep into her stomach, and all was quiet. The waves and the wind seemed to have been stunned into silence at the horror of what it had just witnessed.
