your flashlight on him,” Julie says. She can’t focus on comforting words for her son. She wants him to react right. That’s all she can think about. “Shine your light on him. Ok?”
     
    Stewart wipes his eyes as he nods yes. He’s trying as hard as he can to stay brave.
     
    “They will be here soon,” Ann says to comfort the boy. “They will be here soon then we will go somewhere safe.”
     
    “No,” the cold steady voice of Nanlar speaks. He is not in vision. His voice comes from the dark stairs leading to the second floor. “Not going to be here in time.”
     
    “Shut up!” Ann yells. She is scared but she is also in protection mode. She will not allow anything to happen to Julie and Stewart. “You will not get us! Do you hear me?”
     
    “Mine,” Nanlar says. He appears behind the three humans as he finishes his thought. “I came here for you and you will be mine.”
     
    Julie and Ann turn around fast shining their flashlights on the larger Nanlar . He raises his arms and fades from the beams.
     
    “No!” Ann yells. She steps forward and scans the area of darkness with the beam from her light. “No!”
     
    Nanlar appears on the other side of the room in the darkness along the wall. “Mine.” He steps forward as they turn and shine their lights on him. He raises his arms and the beams strike him. This time he doesn’t fade. He yells out in a wind like roar of pain but he continues stepping forward. He yells louder as he enters the area of light provide by the lamp. “Mine!” His large shadowy frame fades to reveal his silky black skin as he steps further into the light. He is in obvious pain and moves slow as he reaches his arms out toward the humans.
     
    “Ann!” Julie cries as she and her son step back away from the approaching Nanlar . “What do we do?” She doesn’t pay attention. They are stepping back too close to the edge of the light and she realizes it’s too late.
     
    Nanlar fades from the light and appears in the darkness behind Julie and Stewart. He pushes his mom forward crashing her into Ann and the light. The light breaks as they fall to the floor. The room is completely dark as the two women look up. They see Stewart crying as he shines his flashlight on the larger Nanlar .
     
    “Stewart!” Julie yells as she stands. She shines her flashlight causing the larger being pain but he is still fast. He reaches out and grabs her by the neck. He turns and tosses her sideways down the hall and she lands hard when she hits the floor.
     
    “Mom!” Stewart cries. He stands, but is too scared to move as he helplessly watches Nanlar turn toward Ann as she stands.
     
    Nanlar reaches out and grabs Ann by the throat. He picks up the smaller woman and starts toward the stairs.
     
    “Run Stewart!” Ann chokes out as they reach the bottom of the stairs. She loses sight of the boy as they start up the stairs. She still holds her flashlight and is able to shine it directly on the side of Nanlar’s head. His toothless mouth widens as he yells in pain.
     
    Nanlar drops the woman as he raises his arms in pain. She falls to the stairs and tumbles down to the bottom dropping her flashlight in the process.
     
    Ann lies on her stomach. She looks across the room and sees Stewart still standing in front of the door. A second later, she feels the strong grip of Nanlar on her ankle.
     
    Stewart cries as he steps forward. He looks down the hall and sees his mom standing then he turns to Ann on the floor at the bottom of the stairs. He sees her eyes widen and then she is yanked back up the stairs out of his vision. He cries out as his mother reaches him.
     
    “Where is she?” Julie cries to her son. She sees him point to the stairs and she runs with flashlight in hand. She reaches the bottom of the stairs and shines the light up. She sees Ann’s face just as she is pulled out of vision at the top of the stairs. Julie starts to run up the stairs when her son cries out,
