Catherine had escaped.
Or so he had thought. But as he walked around the pool he heard rustling.
Todd walked toward his pool house and peered inside. It was dark.
Catherine stood still concealed around the corner from the door he had been looking through.
Her body trembled, not only in fear but also due to her sopping wet clothing that now clung to her body.
Catherine's breathing intensified and she had to cup her hand over her mouth.
Catherine slowly moved herself through the pool house to a window to see, as Todd made his way back toward the house.
Catherine let out a sigh of relief and sat on the floor in desperate need to catch her breath.
After doing so she stood up to see Todd with his flashlight standing right outside the window she was hiding under his back toward her. Todd quickly turned around knowing all along she was there and tossed a large rock through the thin glass window.
Catherine fell to the ground as the window shattered over her body.
Catherine's head jerked upward as she heard Todd stepping through the glass toward her.
Catherine stood up fast and ran in the opposite direction, smashing out another window Catherine hid herself.
Todd came to the room with the broken out window and leaned through.
"Dammit" he yelled and ran back through the pool house and out side thinking that Catherine had went through the window.
When everything was quite a closet door slowly opened and Catherine stepped out looking both ways before she fully emerged she ran to the pool house door and ran out.
As she ran through the door a hand grabbed her and threw her down.
Catherine's head smashed off the pavement and blood made its appearance in her hair.
Todd grabbed Catherine without a word and dragged her to his garage just off to the side of the house.
Todd tied her hands and feet once again and placed her in the trunk of his wife's car.
He then returned to his pool house and cleaned up the mess of glass. He returned to his house and wiped away any sign of Catherine. He walked back outside with bleach and hosed down the spot where Catherine's blood had fallen. He walked back into his house once again and grabbed a fresh pair of clothes; the blanket the Catherine was lying on and the rope and duct tape he used to restrain her.
Todd walked to the garage, opened the trunk and threw everything he had collected inside. Slamming the trunk shut he got in the car and drove away from his home, as turned onto a busy Vegas block he saw the police cars racing in the opposite direction. To his home he was assuming.
Todd continued driving. Driving away from his home, his neighbourhood and away from any known civilization.
