The shadow was watching out of the corner of his eye as Adam fell to the ground. Yes, this was working out just the way he wanted. He turned his head towards the files on the table in front of him as the group of friends walked over to a corner of the building and that was the last time he saw them. He held up on file that read "Adam Parker" in big letter and silently read to himself. It seemed young Adam had a "special gift" and could see what happens either before or after it happens. Even doctors don't know how it happened, but he as it. That's when it hit him like a truck. Adam was the mist in Beth's room as he was killing her! A smile crossed his face and he stood up, gathering the files and heading towards the door. No one even paid attention to him and that's what he wanted. He was just a new face and people didn't look his way. He stepped outside and realized it was raining. A storm was blowing in slowly, but it would hit within the next twenty minutes. Just enough time. He walked towards the street that he needed and stood in front of a bricked house with a cat sitting on the steps. He walked towards the door and opened it without a second thought. He knew the parents were out at work and their, perfect, never get into trouble boy was home alone watching TV. He walked into the family room, a couch and one chair took over the room with a lazy boy sitting on the couch.
"Today in the news," the TV said. "A killer is on the lose in Angle Grove, killing 16 year old Beth Baker late today. Police are looking into this case and they do not have any clues as to who did this and why. Parents and friends are looking for answers as well, but nothing will come up. The Angle Grove Police Department is issuing an eight o'clcok curfew for the entire Angle Grove. Anyone caught after that hour will be sent to jail and stay there until the next day. Stay turn for more on this case."
The shadow couldn't help but smile as he heard that. He was already making TV and no one even knew it was him. Only one person knows and he's to scared to tell. He saw his victim stand up and go to the kitchen and he followed, thanking the dad for putting carpit on the floor. When he saw the vicitm stand by the sink with a glass, he knew it was time. He reached behind this back and pulled out a knife he took from Beth's house and walked closer, raised the knife, and stabbed his victim. He stabbed from the neck and then pulled the knife down, tearing the flesh until he reached the tailbone. Blood was pouring onto the kicthen floor. He loved listening to the victims cries as he kills them. He pulled the knife out and lifted up the limp body of Jordan Hackword. Quarterback of the football team and boyfriend to Linzy Showar. He looked into the corner of the kicthen and saw the same mist he saw when he killed Beth. He was watching again and the mist was coming towards him, but nothing could do him harm. He walked up the stairs, forgetting about the blood on the floor, and into his bedroom, dumping the bleeding body on the bed. He took one look at the body and left the house, closing the door as he went out, letting the blood wash off his clothes. He knew no one would look for blood on the grass when the bodies inside. He just hope the mist saw everything and would soon get the message. He turned around and saw the mist following him and got an idea. He waited until the mist was an inch from him when he pulled out the bloody knife and swung at the mist, watching it disappear.
*Rocky's house*
After they left the Youth Center and then rain came down, the group decided to go to Rocky's since his family was out of town for a week and no one really wanted to go home. They pulled into Rocky's drive as the rain got harder and made it inside as lightning lit the sky. They made themselves at home in Rocky's family room while Rocky and Adam left the room to get some food. Rocky returned alone saying, Adam went to lay down since he was tired. Everyone agreed that was the best so they staid quiet while Adam slept.
"Do you think Zordon will find out what's wrong with Adam?" Kim asked, grabbing the bowl of chips.
"I don't really know," Billy said. "There are things Zordon can't do and I have a bad feeling this is one of them. When did it get this bad, Rocky?"
"Don't know. I mean, he always had these dreams but not like this. I'm worried about him."
"We all are," Tommy said. "I think I might have him tell me dad about these dreams."
"Won't he take Adam to jail then? I mean, he saw a murder that no one saw," Ashia asked.
"No. My dad won't do that. He won't even think of doing it. He'll just keep asking more questions and that's it."
Rocky nodded and left the room once more. He wasn't lying when he said he was worried about Adam. He told Adam on the way here that he was staying with him until this killer is caught. He opened the door to his room and made sure Adam was alright. He saw his friend toss and turn in his sleep, a blanket of sweat on his face. He was in another nightmare and it looked like he was fighting it. Rocky walked over to the bed and held Adam's shoulders down. He kept calling his name but Adam wouldn't wake. He must have yelled his name to loud because Tommy was standing by the .
"What's wrong?"
"He's in another nightmare. I can't wake him either." Rocky turned his attention back to Adam and thinking of how to wake him. He saw Tommy touch Adam on the arm and pulled his hand back. It was covered in blood.
"What the hell?" he whispered. He went to put his hand on Adam's arm again when Adam gave a cry and shoot up, breathing hard. He stood up when he saw Rocky calm him down and walked towards the bathroom. He grabbed a rag, put it under cold water, and walked back into Rocky's room. He saw Adam lying back on the bed, his hand holding his bleeding arm, and Rocky was just sitting on the bed.
"You okay?" Rocky asked.
"No. I had another dream," Adam winced as Tommy put the rag on his wound. This never happened to him before. He was never attacked in his dreams. He sat up when he felt like it and took the rag from Tommy as his friend left again, saying something about getting bandages.
"Who was it?"
"Jordan Hackword. At his house. I think it just happened too. The shadow saw me. He saw me in the corner of the kitchen and when I went to stop him outside, he swung the knife at me. That's when I woke up."
"Tommy suggest you talk to his dad. He won't do anything to you but ask questions. You might be able to help the police catch this person." Rocky looked up and saw Tommy return with bandages in hand. He took some and started to bandage Adam's arm, making sure he made it tight to stop the blood but not tight enough to hurt Adam. When he was done, he asked Adam if he was alright.
"For now yes. I just don't think I'll be sleep anytime soon." Adam got off the bed and followed his friends into the family room. The rest of the group just looked up but didn't say anything. The concern in their eye's told him everything. He just sat on the couch next to Ashia and Rocky and they all watched TV while the storm outside was getting harder and harder.
