Dark Place

Scotty knew that death sounded good right now, it was better than being subjected to horrific abuse daily. His body was covered with cuts and brusies, while watching Oliver kill yet another victim. In fact it was horrific, but nothing was compared to hearing both the pain and suffering. However, he still was tied up.

Closing his eyes, Scotty knew that his end was near. He knew now there was no more escaping from Oliver. Later on, a cold bucket of water had been thrown all over his body. Scotty shivered due to the coldness, while feeling this demon now pulling him up off the floor.

" There's still work to be done, " as Oliver began bathing him," You have to do one more thing, kill Lilly's father. All her pain stems from him, but she thinks that I'm done with him. In reality I'm not, I've never killed someone his age before. For now, I own you."

Aftering Scotty had gotten dressed, his mind was still on the baby. He loved it so much, but had failed to protect it. What kind of cop was he, not a good one apprently? Dispite what Oliver had ordered him to do, Scotty still couldn't muster himself to just that. Besides , it was the only parent that Lilly had left. It now lead him to believe that perhaps Oliver himself had once murdered his entire family.

Perhaps not, what if he was just a naturally born psychopath? Now wasn't the time to be thinking of theories, or escaping. He now found himself being led down into another part, and into another room that had a steel door.

" This is the dungeon, " Oliver hissed, as he opened the door. Inside was something so horrific, along with the pugnet smell of death in the air. It had made Scotty physically sick, wanting nothing more than to erase the image of this place entirelly from his mind.

" Why are you showing this to me?", he questioned, but instead was lead behind yet another door which led out into a hallway. Scotty remained quiet, while hearing how each of their footsteps echoed as they continued on walking.

Until reaching another room, inside was a bed with a bathroom inside. The place was completely messy," This is your new room, since now I've decided to hide awhile. It will be a matter of time before the cases go cold again, including your own missing persons case.

After the door had shut, Scotty turned on a flashlight; seeing that in addition to the bed, there also was a chair and a table. He then gently pulled off a sheet, revealing a small mirror. It had been awhile since he had seen his own reflection.

The man staring back at him, appeared to be worn, in need of a haircut, and shave.

Headquarters-One Month Later

Without any new leads, the case was starting to grow cold. However John knew he had killer lose, and a missing detective. Already both Rosa and Ramiro Valens, were beyond worried about their son; wanting nothing more than to find him. The squad had no idea where Oliver was, which was adding more to their anger; they all agreed that this was the hardest case to solve.

Lilly's Apartment

Her eyes studied her pregnant reflection in the mirror, knowing that next month she would be giving birth. Lilly now exhaled softly, while now on maternity leave. Something indeed wasn't sitting right with her, as she then came downstairs and grabbed her keys.

Once outside, Lilly walked in the rain to a nearby convience store to buy something sweet to eat. She ended up leaving with a bag of potato chips and some ice cream with fudge mixed in, plus stopping to get a medium side order of some fries.

However Lilly had ended up getting drenched by the rain, before changing into a pair of maternity pyjamas when she arrived back at home. After settling in for the night, she managed to eat pratically the whole pint of ice cream along with everything else.

Around midnight the sound of her phone ringing was now heard, waking Lilly out of a deep sleep, " Just remember one thing my Lilly, I am still watching you, your still mine."

Her heart raced frantically out of fear, long after Oliver had hung up. She now grabbed her gun, upon hearing something smash, as Lilly slowly made her way downstairs. Until someone had touched her shoulder, only to see that it was just her father.

" Dad," she breathed out.

Paul could see the look of fright on her face," Are you alright?," knowing who had just called her," He's taunting you Lilly," pulling her into an embrace.

One Month Later

The rain pounded on the car, as Lilly sat in the front passanger seat of her father's car; while her brother Finn sat in the backseat. However she couldn't stand the banterings between both of them, " You better plan on taking me to a hospital soon."

" If Dad hadn't gotten us lost," Finn said sarcastically.

Paul wasn't in the mood to be arguing with his teenaged son," Enough, Finn," as he then pulled into a rest stop," Stay here with your sister."

While he went inside, Lilly's cell rang," Another road trip from hell, luckily I know how to read a map. I'm watching you, following your every move. Looks like Daddy might need to check the engine," as a bird now came smashing down onto the hood, before a sound of several gunshots was now heard, " Just a few warnings my Lilly."

Finn's eyes peeled around, " There's some dude in the car, looking at us."

" Don't look, " Lilly breathed," Just keep your head down."However the car that the man was in remained there, as Paul now came out. He too noticed the car, before seeing it driving away. From around the corner, Oliver was watching, knowing that he would never allow himself to be seen

Somehow the two now smelt smoke, before both her and Finn quickly got out. It was good timing that John had pulled up, as everyone now got in.

However Lilly's contractions were worsening, as she held onto her father's hand tightly; until the car had reached a hospital. The pain worsened some time later, while Lilly was in the middle of giving birth. She moaned loudly, while pushing the hardest that she could.

Lilly cried out in more pain until the sound of a newborn's first cries were now heard, " It's a girl," the doctor now announced. Tears of joy streamed down her face, as the newborn was now placed into her arms.

" Hey,"she said softly, before kissing her daughter's forehead. Lilly could see that she resembled Scotty a bit, but mostly was a mixture of both of them. The sound of the newborn's breathing now became the sound of her father's as he laid in bed.

Scotty had no clue that he had just became a father, but knew what Oliver was planning on doing to Lilly. That wasn't supposed to happen for another six months, but in the meantime now had discovered that he had company, with a victim not turned into another killer.
