Chapter 22
Note- Sorry for the wait
Carter's eyes looked down into the empty grave where a casket was laid open waiting for a victim. He looked back up at the stone not wanting to believe what he saw. The name was his and the date was that very day. He shook his head praying for it to all be in his mind, a simple nightmare. The cold wind howled at him causing him to shake subconsciously.
Danny walked around revealing his gun and motioning Carter into the dark hole. Carter wanted to run, but he was too late he felt himself falling as Rob pushed him harshly into the hole. He moved to get up but suddenly movement wasn't possible from his waist down. His legs tingled and he moved his hand to his side were he noticed a needle. Fear flashed through his eyes at the realization of what was happening. "Sleep tight" Danny said as he pulled a cord slamming to casket shut. Carter pushed up on the lid as her heard the dirt and rocks taping the top of his casket. He banged till his hands became bloody then he was left in silence.
Danny and his crew pulled away from the site pleased with their job and returned to Danny's place. Danny retired to his room. As he sat on his bed staring at the pictures he had of his sister and mother he thought about the past.
He walked out of his house full of courage as he sat in the car with his "friends" and were about to drive off. His mother ran up to him holding his sister's hand. He opened the door and let the child in as he was overcome with embarrassment. The car drove off as the sun dimmed. They stopped in front of a small corner convenience store. Wanting to prove his worth Danny jumped out first with a gun behind his back hidden by his jacket. He ordered his sister to remain in the car as the other three boys followed him in. They were casual as he stood before the clerk pretending to buy a pack of cigarettes. Once asked to pull out his ID he reached around revealing to gun, but the clerk was just as quick as he revealed his gun. The "Friends" had left leaving his sister out on the curb. He ran out the door as she ran towards him the clerk fired a single bullet.
"No" he said in a cold sweat. "It was his fault he should of saved her. If she was here then she wouldn't of killed herself" He said stroking the picture of his mother. He recalled the occurrence.
He entered the apartment and threw down his keys on the table. He began talking to his mother who was sitting at the table in the kitchen. He sat down with her and watched her cry over pictures of her lost child. He slid his hand over her head and she sat up quickly and demanded for him to leave as she raised the gun to her head. He ran at her but was to late as the bullet left the gun killing his mother instantly. The sound rang throughout the apartment.
He sat with tears streaming silently down his face with a few muffled sobs. As he could hear the ringing of the two bullets, that killed two beautiful people. He stood up and regained his composure as he looked at himself in the mirror. "He's getting what he deserves" he reassured himself as he straightened his jacket and exited the room.
...Police station...
"We have an address. He changed his last name to Brink."
In a matter of minutes three squad cars were sent out to the address found. Mark and Benton rode with Officer Jennings a man in his early thirties and his partner Officer Lain a younger man in his late twenties. Time passed slowly as the ride was spent in silence. Finally the cars stopped in front of a large building.
...Cemetery...
The feeling returned to Carter's legs as he tossed in the box. His eyes shifted searching for any light. Suddenly it dawned on him he reached into his pants pocket and found a penlight he always carried. He turned it on and searched the lining for anything possible. He found a note hidden in a small pocket above his head.
Here lies the body of a murderer.
May he rest in peace.
Carter grew angry at those short words. He ripped up the paper and after turning off the light continued to scratch and bang on the wood in the darkness. He didn't want this to be the end he needed to escape. Exhaustion and blood lose started to make Carter dizzy as he worked. He prayed for someone to save him as he finally succumbed to his injuries.
