Authors Note: Hey guys, once again thank you for the reviews and follows. I'm sorry for not updating sooner, I know I said I would update twice a week but I caught strep throat and my throat feels as if it's on fire. I still need a beta.

Chapter 4:
She was walking. Where to, she didn't know. She just had the feeling that she needed to get away. Away from the area. Away from the danger that she couldn't see. Speeding up, Aurora rounded the corner of the dimly lit street.
She could see her apartment building, it was right there. No more then a couple of yards away. The feeling was getting stronger. The danger was closer. Aurora could her the footsteps behind her now. Breaking out into a run, she reached the door of the building, opening it and swinging in.
The lobby was empty. She headed to the elevator. Stepping in and pushing the button with her floor on it, she tried to calm her erratic heartbeat. Aurora jumped when the ding signaling that she was on her floor.
Peering around the corner, she let out a sigh of relief when she realized the floor was empty. Walking to her door, she pulled her keys out. Fumbling with them for a minute, she finally got her door unlocked. She opened the door, setting down her purse she then proceeded to lock up.
She turned, hands reaching out blindly, to find the light switch in the darkness. Once her finger tips touched the switch she flipped it on. Dropping her keys in shock, she could only tremble in fear. Standing in front of her was the one thing she had been trying to escape, trying to forget.
The man was chuckling. "Come now, Fawn. You didn't honestly think you could get away from me." She was gasping, her heart beat frantic as she stood frozen on spot. "I've told you before, no one gets out. We always find you. I'll always find you."
The alarm blared in Aurora's ear,startling her from the nightmare. Gasping for breath, she lurched up from her bed. " Oh god, why out of everything I could possibly have dreamt, would I have a nightmare of that."
Aurora pulled the covers off and slipped out of bed. Heading to her dresser, she pulled out a black pencil skirt, a white camisole, and a sheer white blouse. She walked into the bathroom, setting her clothes on the towel rack and turned the shower on. Slipping her night shirt over her head, she stepped into the shower.
Her mind kept replaying the dream over and over. "Great" she mummered "First people with red eyes, now monsters from my past." She shuddered. The water had gotten cold. "Shit. I'm going to be late."
Aurora shut the shower off. Getting out, she grabbed a towel. Once she was dry. She pulled on her clothes. She brushed through her damp curls and ran out,
pulling on a pair of black pumps.
Reaching out she grabbed her phone, sticking it in her purse. She ran out, locking her door behind her.
Aurora entered the building to see Heidi waiting for her. "You just barely made it." Heidi said, shaking her head. "Sorry Heidi, I lost track of time." Aurora grimaced, that had sounded like a pitiful excuse.
Heidi grinned.
"It's fine. Just try to get her earlier." Aurora nodded. Heidi directed her to the desk. "So, my boss is happy that we have a new secretary. However, seeing as our employers are very busy, you are going to be given something like a trail run."
Aurora cocked her head. "A trial run?" Heidi nodded "Yes, basically you're going to work for a month if we think you can handle it then you'll be given more responsibility and more accesses to certain things. If not then you'll be dismissed." Aurora hesitated. "Okay."
Heidi's grin got wider. "Great during that time, I'll be your supervisor. You do what I give you to do." Aurora sighed. "Alright, I guess I understand."
Heidi laughed. "Don't worry it's only a month. It'll go by like that." she said, snapping her fingers. Heidi looked over at the desk, giving it a disgusted look. "The first thing you might want to do is clean that desk."
Heidi then turned, and walked off. Aurora sighed again. Heading over to the desk to see what she could do with the mess.
