Part two
I jumped up. 'What the hell is going on here? Where are mom and dad?' I thought franticly. I bounded inside. Snap, the family Border Collie, came over to me, knowing I was nervous. "Snap..." I said quietly scratching his ear.
Then, the doorbell rang.
Snap ran over to the door, barking. He always barked at doorbells, too bad he wasn't as fierce as he sounded. He was only you're perfect family dog. I followed him, completely thankful that dad had gotten the glass door replaced. "W-who is it?" I stammered.
"Just open the door." A man's voice called.
"I said, who is it?"
"Open the door and find out." His voice was low, but calm. It scared me to know someone like that was just on the other side of a wooden door.
'Oh God,' I thought. 'God help me! He wants to kill me!'
The man pounded on the door. "OPEN THE DAMN DOOR JACKIE!"
"Oh God! How do you know my name!" I was scared to death. Adrenaline pulsed through my veins. Snap had run off somewhere. Great.
"I know all about you. Where you're parents work, where you go to school, all of you're friends. Now quit playing around and open the door or I'm going to break it down!" He was getting pissed.
"NO!" I ran up the stairs, taking them two at a time. I had played hide-and-seek a hundred times in this house so I knew all the best spots to hide, that a 10-year-old wouldn't look, but what about an adult? 'Who cares?' I thought as I climbed into the cupboard under my bathroom sink. 'I will if he finds me!' Just before I shut the door, Snap came up. "Go Snap, go hide!" I whispered hurridly. Snap could tell I was scared, I saw it in his eyes, that and love. But he still bounded off in to my bedroom.
Not two seconds after I shut the cupboard door I heard a bang, followed by the splintering of wood. The door would have to be replaced, again.
"You can't hide Jackie!" The man yelled from the front lobby. "No one can help you know!" I heard a small chuckle as he began to climb up the stairs. "No one...you're all alone, Jackie..." My breathing was shallow and my heart was pumping dangerously fast.
All of a sudden I heard growling and three barks. Snap.
"What the- Aggggggggghh get OFF me you mangy mutt!" I cowered into the back of the cupboard. Then I heard a thud, a whine, and then a gun being cocked. "You're a stupid dog. A stupid, mangy, son of a b!tch. See you in hell." He said. Then I heard a gun shot. Snap whimpered, then the house went quiet.
"I'm going to find you, Jackie. And when I do, you'll regret ever being born."...
