Chp 1: Flashback

Alex's POV: 9 years ago

" Boooooooom!!!!!!!!!!" A terrible sound awoke me from my troubled slumber.

At first I ignored it but when it blasted a second time, I got up and crawled under my bed ,with my favorite teddy bear nestled in hand.

" Booooooooooom!!!!!!!!!!" The sound rang again, in my tiny eardrum. After the sound faded away I heard a voice. My mommy!!

" Mommy!" after I shrieked I heard voices.

" Greg did you hear that?" said a very baritone voice

" No, Roger you must be hallucinating." said a whiny voice that must of belonged to Greg.

" No I'm not." said Roger with anger, " Just go check, I think it came from that room.""

" Ok," said Greg, with irritation.

---*---

Then I heard footsteps go all around my room. As he neared my bed, I held my breath for dear life.

" Damn Roger, I swear he needs to retire soon before-" I felt his combat boots on the hilt of my lacy nightgown.

" What the hell is this?" He said, while pulling the covers off my bed covers. Then a hideously scarred face popped in front of me.

" It's a girl." he said before reaching over to me.

I squirmed but it was already too late. He pulled me out of my hiding spot, and held me like you would hold a dog by its collar.

" Ah-ha, wait till Roger sees this. He'll promote me for sure." he said while chuckling, exposing his stinky rotten meat/stale cheese breath.

He kept laughing hysterically until a harpoon went right threw him.

His face was frozen in mid-laughter when he released me and fell backwards slowly, hitting the floor with a hard thud.

In the middle of the doorway was my daddy holding the harpoon that had just murdered the man.
