Graham and Merril ran around the other side of the house. Both of them are thinking: Where have we seen this before?

They reached the other side of the house and saw Bo and Morgan being licked by Issabel.

He turned to Carolyn who had followed them. "Very funny Carolyn. Make us jump out of our skin with worry and it turns out you found our dog. Where was she?"

"Wandering around in the crops," she smiled. But then the smile dissapeared. "It looked as though she had been tranquillized. Which brings me back to where I started. Graham, Merril, I think you'd better sit down."

Graham didn't like the sound of this.

"We have searched your entire property. We can't find the body anywhere. We think some others came and took it away," Graham felt his insides turn to ice. He cast a glance at Merril. His mouth kept opening and closing, but no words came out.

"So there are more of them. And they were here," he finally spit out. He didn't believe it. It couldn't happen again.

Carolyn nodded. "Im afraid so. I think the best thing for you and you family would be to stay in a hotel tonight, and tommorow morning, head out of town. Tell the kids it's a vacation or something.

Graham and Merril nodded. They both stood up. Merril went to get the kids, and Graham headed inside to pack. Carolyn followed him up the stairs. As he was throwing things into an overnight bag, sat on the bed.

"Father? Promise me you'll keep those kids safe. They have been through so much. So have you and Merril. Promise me when you return, that those kids will not have a thought in their minds about what happened last night. Promise me,"

Graham nodded, too choked up to speak. He finished packing and they made their way down the stairs. Merril and the kids were already in the car, suitcases and toys in the back. Graham turned to Carolyn and gave her a hug, and climbed into the car. They were driving along the road into town when Merril gasped.

"What?"

"I saw something in the tree," Graham looked back, but he didn't see anything.

"Probably a squirrel or something," he replied, eyeing the rearveiw mirror. They were all looking out the windows now, but it was getting too dark to see anything.

Graham parked at the only hotel in town. It almost couldn't be called a hotel, it was so small. It was only two floors, but it had a small indoor pool, and Graham promised Bo that he would take them swimming in the morning.

They got into their room, and the kids fell into bed. Merril and Graham took turns with the shower and then did the same.
