December 13, five years earlier

The house was dark, the only source of light coming from the lightning that flashed through the windows. Jade Kaplan flicked the light switch as she entered the small overcrowded apartment. The powere was gone. She sighed and shrugged her denim jacket from her shoulders. Her ash blond hair was soaked and dripped down her face and neck as I soaked her shirt, but she paid no mind to it.

"Jeremy?" She called out to her boyfriend. The place was silent. Her sneakers squeaked against the wooden floor as she stepped timidly into the houe. There was no way it would be so quiet.

"Jeremy?" She called again. No answer. SHe passed the empty kitchen and bathroom, venturing to the bedroom. She slowly opened the door.

"Jer-" He voice was silence as blue eyes landed on the most horrifying sight of her life.

The corpse of her boyfriend lay upon the bed, covered in fresh blood, eyes wide open and staring at her.

"Oh God, no!" As the words left her throat, she heard the sound of footsteps against the floorboards. Tears fell from her eyes as she spun around. A shaddow against the wall caught her eyes. "What the hell do you want!" she shouted.

"You." The voice came from behind her. But when she turned to scream, her world went black.
