Chapter Three.

1 Week Later.

Allison felt like she was watching a horror movie. She was watching a man, a tall, dark, shadowed figure, butcher a young girl.

Allison couldn't see who the girl was at first, all she could see was the girl's pale legs, hanging over the edge of the table, and the girl's pale pink hoodie sweatshirt that had UPX in blue lettering.

UPX… Why did that seem so familiar?

Then suddenly, the light overhead flicked on and the face of the young girl became very clear. She had long dark hair, pale skin that was now stained with blood and her eyes, her beautiful blue eyes were open…

Allison felt like screaming. The girl that was dying slowly… she looked exactly like Hannah.

Allison jerked awake, gasping for breath. When she realized it had been a dream she let out a deep sigh of relief. Making sure she hadn't woken Joe, she crept out of bed and walked down the hall to Ariel's room, and poked her head in.

She knew the girl in her dream wasn't Hannah, but she had to make sure Hannah was still home all the same.

She saw her oldest daughter sprawled out on her bed, snoring lightly and on the other side of the room, Hannah was sleeping soundly, her dark hair that was so unlike any of Allison's daughters' fanned out behind her.

Allison smiled faintly as she realized her niece still slept in the same position as she always had as a child, on her stomach, with her arms hidden under her pillows and the blankets pulled up to her nose.

Allison closed the door quietly, and then walked to the living room, grabbing a blanket and an old photo album.

The first photo in the entire album was one of Allison, and Hannah's mother, Allison's cousin, Gisele. Hannah looked a lot like Gisele did, when she was younger, with fair skin, dark hair and shocking eyes, though Gisele's hair was black, where Hannah's was brown, and Gisele's eyes were green, when Hannah's were blue.

Gisele and Allison had been the very best of friends growing up. They had been near polar opposites, with Allison being the calm mediator, and Gisele being a wild child, but they were nearly inseparable.

But as they grew older, they grew apart. Allison had chosen to grow up and become a good mother and wife, while Gisele had remained the same wild child she had always been, even after Hannah had been born.

Allison turned the page and found a picture of when Hannah had been about four, and Gisele had dropped her off to visit for awhile with Allison and Joe. Hannah had been a happy child, which was strange, considering what she had to deal with…

"Aunt Allison?"

Allison looked up and found her niece looking at her with sleepy blue eyes. "Hannah, honey, what are you doing up?"

"I don't know," Hannah looked confused, "I think I got up to get a drink."

Allison stood up and led Hannah into the kitchen, "I'll get you something to drink."

"What are you doing up, Aunt Allison?" Hannah asked.

"Just a bad dream," Allison responded.

"Oh," Hannah nodded slowly, "Was it about a case?"

I hope not. Allison thought to herself, "I don't think so,"

Hannah nodded again, sipping the water her aunt had poured for her. When she finished her water, she turned to put her glass in the dishwasher, and Allison noticed the shorts she was wearing. They were black, and on the back, in white letters it said UPX.

Just like in her dream.

"Hannah, wait," Allison said.

Hannah turned and looked at her aunt expectantly.

"What's UPX?" Allison asked.

"Sorry?"

"UPX. On the back of your shorts?"

"It's University of Phoenix, Aunt Allison." Hannah responded, "Why?"

Allison took a deep breath and then shook her head, "No reason, honey. Go back to bed."

"Okay." Hannah smiled and kissed Allison on the cheek, "See you in the morning."

"Night, sweetie." Allison forced a smile on her face, only until Hannah had disappeared into the room she shared with Ariel, and then a frown took its place.

UPX was University of Phoenix, which was where Hannah went to school. The girl who looked almost identical to Hannah was also a student at the university.

Allison let out a slow sigh. She would have to talk to Devalos in the morning.

When Allison entered the District Attorney's office the next morning, she found Detective Lee Scanlon already there and they were going over a case file.

"Allison, please, come in." Devalos nodded at her as she stuck her head in.

Allison walked in, and said, "I have to talk to you guys about a dream I had last night."

"Before you tell us about your dream, we have to tell you about this case that just came in." Devalos said.

"Okay," Allison nodded and sat beside Lee and across from Devalos.

"We have a new serial killer on the loose." Devalos said.

Lee nodded, "Stalking and killing girls from University of Phoenix."

"University of Phoenix." Allison repeated, "What… what do the girls look like?"

Lee spread out the photos on Devalos' desk, and Allison gave a small gasp.

Every single one of the girls had dark hair and blue eyes.

Lee noted this, but said, "The serial killer is going through the list of all students alphabetically, by their first names. Amanda Halloway, Bree Anderson, Celeste Deangelo, Dawn Crowell, Elizabeth Belding, Faith Llewellyn and Virginia 'Ginny' Mac Cloud."

Allison looked at the photo of Ginny Mac Cloud, and looked at the two men, "I had a dream about her last night, that's what I had to tell you about."

"Did you see who did it?" Lee asked automatically.

Allison shook her head, "He was tall. That's all I know… and he was killing her in a basement." She paused, "Who's the next girl on the list?"

Lee looked at the list and said, "The next girl on the list with dark hair and blue eyes is… Hannah Benoit."

So this was a short one, but I think I put quite a bit in it. A serial killer, learning some more about Hannah and her family, and a little bit of a shock. Thank you for all the reviews, please keep it up! :)
