The truck ahead of us was going at a steady pace. But then again I'm not really paying attention to neither the truck nor its driver. My mind kept coming back to where we were headed. I wasn't worried about my own safety; it was Melissa's life I was worried about.

I looked at the passengers behind me and they didn't suspect anything. "Hey, listen up for a sec. The reason we are following this truck is for a place to rest. She and her family are allowing us to stay at their house for the night." I said in a neutral tone.

"Come on Alex, we could have gone to a motel or something instead of sleeping with a bunch of hillbillies." Replied Fred and he added with a leer, "Besides, do they have enough beds. Because if they don't I don't mind sharing." One of the girls giggled and I just rolled my eyes at them.

"Any ways, will be there any moment now. Behave and show some respect if you can handle that, if not keep your mouth shut." I said that while pulling into a long driveway that the truck went through. "What if they are a bunch of freaks?" Maria said with disgust in her voice. "You will shut the hell up and not say that again Maria" I said with hate in my voice. "Whatever" Was all I got from her. Oh yeah, I'm going to be so sad when they get killed.

I see the truck stop at a two story, Victorian style white house. It looked a little run down old, but had a sturdy looking frame. I pulled up next the truck and turned off the van. I made sure to pocket the keys in case one of them did escape. When I parked, I shouted for everyone but Melissa to get out. Once everyone was out I turned to Melissa to ask her something.

"Sweet heart, I need you to do something for me. I need you to stay near me or if I say to do something, just do it." I asked while taking her hand. She gave me a confused look and asked" Why? Isn't this family good?" I smiled and replied "If they keep their promise, then yes. But, I also don't trust those cretins from not hurting you." "I understand" she said while nodding.

I got out of the van and went around to help Melissa. I grabbed her hand and walk towards the house. We got close enough to the group to hear one of them mutter "The house has seen better days."I rolled my eyes and kept walking to Mama. She smiled faintly at us and hollered to the group "Come on in and I'll get everyone a drink."

Melissa and I stepped up on the porch and I held open the screen door for Mama. She beamed at me and softly said a thank you. After she crossed the door frame, I pushed Melissa forward. I quickly followed them towards a living room.

The room had a small TV with antenna, a large family sized couch, two other rocking chairs beside the couch, and an iron board in the corner. I didn't look around much because Mama was walking to the kitchen. Nothing that special about this room either, just kitchen appliances.

"Why don't you two help me make tea for your group." Mama said while reaching in her cabinet for a tea pot. "Aunty, can I help?" Melissa asked with a pleading look on her face. I laughed and replied "Didn't you her Mama say "you two"?" she looked down, embarrassed from not listening. I lifted her chin and asked "You weren't paying attention and were looking around, weren't you?" She nodded quickly. "It's alright Angel, it's a new place. I understand your curiosity."

She smiled and crossed the room towards Mama to ask what she could do. "Why don't you clean the tea cups in the sink." Melissa nodded and headed to the sink to start working. "Do you have any beer? I only ask because I doubt the boys will drink tea." I added that last sentence when Mama gave me a disapproving look. Mama nodded and pointed to the fridge.

I turned around and opened the fridge, grabbing five beers. "Bring them over here, I'll fix them up." Mama said. I walked over to the counter and placed them next to her. She grabbed a cap opener and removed the caps on the bottles. She then took some white powder and put it in their drinks. She looked at me and said "Sleeping pills crushed up, knocks them out in about five minutes."

"Same in the tea?" I asked Mama. She nodded and she turned to get the kettle of the stove. "I'm done." Melissa exclaimed from the sink. I smiled and replied "I'll help you carry them to the counter." I walked over and grabbed six cups while she had a cup in each hand. Once we set them on the counter, Mama filled them and put the sleeping powder in five of them.

"Melissa." I called quietly. She looked up at me and I said "Make sure you don't trade cups or give your cup to someone else." She nodded and grabbed one that was safe to drink. Melissa looked at Mama and said "Thank you for making us tea Mama." Mama just smiled and nodded. Mama turned back towards the cabinets and grabbed a metal tray to carry the drinks. I helped her load the tray and grabbed the tray for her. "It's quite heavy; I don't mind carrying it for you Mama." I said while heading to the living room. "You are such a nice young lady" Mama replied and I could hear a smile in her voice.

I went out to the living room and passed everyone their drinks. Apparently the girls didn't mind sitting on their boyfriends laps on the couch. The three football players were on the couch with their girls on their laps while the other two boys were in the chairs next to the couch. The two remaining girls just lean on the wall. "Why do we have to drink tea when the boys get beer?" Maria snobbishly said to me. "Because Mama wants the girls to drink tea and act properly. So shut up and drink your tea." She glared at me but still drank it.

After about five minutes they did pass out. "Good stuff" I thought to myself. "So what do we do now Mama?" Melissa asked while looking at everyone sleeping. Mama smiled and said "My special boy will take care of them." Mama walked over toward a door that was close the stairs. She knocked on the door and shouted "Thomas, I got a group for you."

All the sudden I heard thundering footsteps coming up the stairs and I pulled Melissa next to me. The door open and their stood a giant man. He was dressed in a blue button up shirt and brown pants. The apron he was wearing was covered in dried blood and cleaver he was holding was in the same state. However, the most distinctive thing was his mask. It seems he was wearing someone else's face.

Then he walked to the couch to collect one of the bodies, but then he noticed Melissa and me. His hand tightened around his cleaver and he raised it toward me. I pushed Melissa behind me as he raised his cleaver above his head. "Stop right now!" Mama shouted at Thomas and he froze on the spot. "What did I say over the phone?" He tilted his head and shrugged his shoulders. "To not hurt the driver or the passenger, these two girls." Mama pointed to us. He lowered his cleaver and looked down ashamed, my guess from not almost killing us but almost disobeying Mama. "It's alright Mama, Thomas didn't know who was who." I said in a calm voice. Thomas snapped his head towards me and stared at me. I figured I should introduce us.

"Hello Thomas, I'm Alex and this little angel's name is Melissa." Melissa looked around me and waved shyly at him. He gestured to the unconscious group and tilted his head. "Those were the cretins who were traveling with us." He nodded and grabbed Fred by the ankle. He turned around and headed back from where he came from. All you could hear was the steady thud of Fred's body hitting the steps on his way down.
