Lost Creek, Colorado
"Your Time Is Gonna Come. . . "
A woman in her late 20s paces around the record player. The blinds on the windows have been closed and the only light coming was in were between the cracks under the door.
"When I was younger my brother used to chase me outside. He would pretend he was a monster and I was his dinner."
The woman walked towards the window and moved a few blinds down so she could peek out.
"Once he chased me to this old farm. We were told by our parents that we were not allowed to play there. It was dangerous they said."
The woman removes her hand the window and turns around.
Haley, tied and gagged could only look at her. Her vision was blurry, her tears and blood ran down her face covering her eyes.
" So, he chased me there. I don't remember much, but I fell down. I hit my head on a rock. This very nice man come over and offered help. My bother," the woman frowns," didn't trust him from the start."
The woman was over to Haley, grabs he head with both hands and stares into her eyes.
"He led my brother and me into this big house. I sat on the couch, bleeding everywhere. The man, he told my brother to outside. He wouldn't move. So, " She lets go of Haley's head but grabs her shoulders, " he had someone take my brother away to another room."
The woman removes Haley's gag.
"Please-"
The woman cuts her off by placing a finger over her lips.
"Ssh. That man, he really liked me. He touched my head and called me beautiful. I told him he made me uncomfortable and I wanted to go, " she frowns again and Haley stares at her horrified," I tried to leave. He grabbed my arm. He squeezed my arm, so hard. I think I cried. He pushed me back on the couch. Then he was on top of me."
"I'm sorry-"
"My brother, I don't remember where he came from but the next thing I knew, he was there. He did something. There was so much blood on his hands. He grabbed me and we ran back home. We never talked about that day ever again. Do you know why I told you that story?"
Haley shook her head, tears still in her eyes. The woman smiled.
"My brother would have done anything for me, like you would do anything for yours. Like you did before. The camping trip with the bear?"
"What-"
" I know it wasn't bear and I know you had help when your brother was taken by that thing."
The woman's face hardened. She grabbed a chunk of Haley's hair and pulled her closer
"Ah-I don't know what-"
" My brother died while yours was saved. Do you think that's fair? What makes your family so fucking special? Where are they? The ones who helped you?"
"I don't know!" Haley cringed as her head was pulled backwards by the hair.
The woman snarled as she stood up. She stormed towards the record player and picked something up.
" I have others on my list, if you want to save them and yourself, answer me correctly. Where are they?"
There was a clicking sound.
Haley took in a deep breath. She gripped the arm rests on the chair tightly, her knuckles turned white.
"I don't know. I didn't keep in touch. They came and went. Once we-my brother's and I were safe, they left."
The woman pulled the trigger.
"Like I said, I have a list." The woman placed the gun back on the table by the record player. She looks down on the table at something.
It was a picture of Lucas with his mother in the park playing. They were both smiling happily. The womn picks up the picture and crumples it in her fist.
"Soon"
"Don't care what you say 'cause I'm goin' away to stay. Gonna make you pay for that great big hole in my heart"
