CHAPTER TWELVE
Jake gently crept down the dank stony hallway. He clenched tightly to the bricks on the walls due to his injured state he had to keep himself upright otherwise his legs would collapse under the pressure. He could see a doorway at the end of the hall but every step felt like a mile. He crept slowly trying not to make a sound. To one side of the doorway he saw another door that was ajar. He decided to ignore it and focus on the other door. With all his effort he crouched down when he passed the half open door so he could not be seen by whoever was inside. He reached out with his better arm and grabbed the doorknob, turned it, his heart skipped a beat as a the door clicked open. He was just about to leave when he thought to himself, "this Is way too easy. This cant be this easy." He was just about to walk out the door when he heard a scream from the other door. He leaned toward it and poked one eye through so he wouldn't get caught. And he gasped at w hat he saw. Rose was in the other room tied to a chair, and the black veiled woman stood beside he holding a large knife. With one swing she slit Rose's throat. Jake then forgot everything and burst through the door. "NOO!" he shouted, The black veiled woman then turned to jake almost as if she knew he was coming. She took a small pistol from her pocket and shot once, twice. Jake died before he hit the ground.
