Just as the sun began to set, the house was still extremely quiet. The man Thomas cut up with the chainsaw was now being prepared for supper. The girl that he hung on the meat hook was now stuffed in the freezer for later. Nubbins and Drayton still hadn't come home yet.

"Tommy, what are you in the mood for?" Mindy asked.

Thomas shrugged. He didn't really care what she cooked for dinner. Mindy set Carrie down in her high chair so she could put on her apron. Thomas stared as she turned toward the stove. He loved the image of her silhouette against the sunset. He got up and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Tommy, what are you doing?" Mindy asked smiling.

He pulled his mask up just enough to reveal his mouth. He started kissing Mindy's shoulder. He kissed along her shoulder and up her neck. Mindy started giggling as he felt his lips on her sensitive skin.

"Honey, not in front of the baby", she giggled.

Thomas smiled and gave her neck a little nibble. Mindy squealed in surprise and delight. They stopped as they heard the charms on the front door jingle along with a new voice.

"Kirk? Are you guys in there?"

"Another one?" Mindy whispered.

Thomas quickly pulled down his mask. Mindy rushed over to Carrie, picking her up from her high chair. She laughed again, but louder to get this new person's attention.

"Hey, guys quit playing games. Quit goofing on me."

Thomas grabbed Mindy's sledgehammer and ushered Mindy and Carrie into the next room. Mindy made some more noises to lure the person into the house.

"Pam, is that you?"

They finally heard the door open. Whoever was there was now inside the house.

"Okay, you guys. Come on out."

Thomas and Mindy heard footsteps coming up the ramp, heading for the kitchen. The footsteps stopped as there was suddenly a faint knocking in the kitchen.

"What's that?" Mindy asked.

Thomas shrugged.

"Kirk?" they heard the person go into the kitchen.

The faint knocking continued. It sounded like it was coming from the freezer.

"That girl?" Mindy asked. "I thought she was already dead?"

Thomas shrugged. That girl was apparently not dead yet. Thomas watched as the young man in the kitchen opened the freezer. The girl locked inside jumped out before going limp across the side. Thomas howled as he raised the sledgehammer over his head. The man screamed in horror as Thomas brought the sledgehammer down on his head.

"What's going on?" Mindy asked as she watched him stuff the girl back into the freezer. "Where are all these people coming from?"

Thomas whimpered an answer as he started searching the house for more people. It was scaring him too. People never came to the house this late. Did someone tip off the police? Was the whole town coming?

"Tommy, what's wrong?" Mindy asked.

Thomas howled in fear as he ran toward the den. He ran past all the bones and feathers as he looked out the window. He didn't see any other people coming. It didn't matter, it still scared him. He started pacing the den and repeatedly looked out the window.

"Honey, relax", Mindy said rushing over to him. "You're getting yourself all worked up."

She grabbed his shoulders and gently pulled him down to sit him down. She sat Carrie down in his lap and took the sledgehammer from him.

"Calm down, Tommy", she said gently taking his face into her hands. "It's okay. We'll be okay."

Mindy pulled him close and kissed his forehead. She and Thomas looked out the window keeping an eye out for more people.

"If there are more of them out there, we'll get them", she said.

Thomas licked his lips nodding in agreement.
