Vanished chapter 7


Catherine and Lindsey sat huddled close together on the edge of the sofa while Eric sat across from them, a smile in his face.

"You don't have to be afraid of me." he smiled " I won't hurt you, not unless it's absolutely necessary."

He stood up and walked toward them. Catherine clutched Lindsey as he sat next to her.

"Get away!" Catherine snapped pulling Lindsey up with her.

Eric stood up and stepped toward them.

"Stay away, I'm warning you!"

Eric shook his head " I told you you don't have to be afraid!"

Catherine shook her head trying to fight back her tears. " What do you want from us? Why did you bring us here?"

Eric stopped,he went back a few steps. The look in his eyes indicated he was hurt. " You don't remember me?" he sat back down. " I feel so much for you and you don't even know who I am."

Catherine didn't reply. Honestly she could remember him.

"We met over a year ago, you had me in a little room with your cop friend.Kady and Elizabeth Darrin" he whispered flipping on his tv and vcr.

The tv screen turned from blue and then there was picture. It was an old news cast from the year before. The tow faces on the screen were Mrs Elizabeth Darrin and Kady Darrin both reported missing and to this day were never found.

It all hit Catherine at once. " No!" she whispered shaking her head " NO!" she pulled Lindsey and ran for the door. Swinging it open the darted outside. Eric Baker followed slowly behind.

Catherine ran through the snow dragging Lindsey along with her.

"HELP!" Catherine screamed into the night " SOMEONE HELP! PLEASE!"

Not being able to see anything she collapsed to the ground.

"Mommy?" Lindsey whispered bending down " mommy where are we?"

"Colorado." Eric replied before Catherine could. " now come inside you'll freeze out here. No one can hear you. It's a private lot, no one even knows there is a house up here. It's just you and me and our daughter.No one will ever find you. I bet they have already given up. it's just you and me." he smiled pulling her up. "My perfect family."
