was
gone.
    Sarah turned away fast
hitting one of the boxes that was hiding her and knocking it over.
She looked and didn’t see Silas in the room anymore, good maybe he’s gone and I can get out of
here she thought to herself. She turned
toward the door and there he was, standing right beside her, she
screamed and fell back on the ground and sat there in
fear.
    “ Did you come to play,
Sarah?” Silas said smiling.
    “ Stay away from me you
sick pervert, you killed that little girl,” Sarah
screamed.
    “ That isn’t the first
little girl that I killed, and it will not be the last,” he
laughed.
    The light in the basement shined
bright red and out of every shadow of the room dark figures walked
out into the red light, there were so many of them standing there
staring at her.
    “ See, Sarah, there are so
many more than you know, and they want you to join them,” Silas
started laughing so loudly that it hurt her ears.
    Sarah looked down at her hands and
feet and seen them starting to sink into the basement floor and she
screamed, “No!” while pulling as hard as she could to get them out
of the ground. She crawled toward the steps fighting against
sinking into the cold earth; Silas was coming at her with the knife
as she screamed uncontrollably climbing the stairs.
    Sarah made it to the basement door and
got it open, she pulled herself into the hallway and slammed the
door shut and leaned against the wall breathing heavily. She looked
down at her leg and seen it was cut wide open and pouring blood out
all over the floor.
    “ I love your blood,
Sarah,” Silas said through the door. She could see his tongue
sliding under the door and licking up her blood.
    She screamed and got up limping to the
kitchen; she got a towel and wrapped it around the cut on her leg
tying it tightly. Sarah turned to go toward the front door to leave
and there was Mike, standing in front of her and his face was
painted like Uncle Silas’s, blue nose and red eyes and mouth and a
white face.
    “ Where are you going
Sarah?” Mike said with a crazy look on his face.
    “ Mike, what’s happened to
you? You’re a good man you’re better than this.”
    “ It’s what I had to do
Sarah, it’s gotta be this way,” he said.
    “ No, it doesn’t, please
come back to me, let’s get out of this place and go back home,
please Mike,” Sarah pleaded.
    “ I’m sorry, Sarah,” Mike
said then lunged at her knocking her to the floor; he was on top of
her and put his hands on her throat choking her. He had a crazy
look in his eyes that she had never seen before, then it hit her,
she was going to die here on the floor and her kids will come home
and he will kill them too. With a burst of desperation she threw
him back and he hit his head against the table, she got up and
grabbed a knife and held it up so he could see it. He came at her
again and she buried the knife in the side of his chest and he fell
back squirming.
    “ Oh my God, oh my God,”
she cried. Sarah made her way to her car as Mike came into the
front doorway standing there with the knife still in
him.
    “ Sarah, please, come
back,” he pleaded.
    She sped out of the driveway and down
the road, she called the school on her cell phone and told them not
to send Mary and Teddy home on the bus, that she would pick them
up, then she called the police and told them that her husband
killed a girl and tried to kill her and she was cut
open.
    The police picked up Teddy and Mary at
school and brought them to the hospital where Sarah was getting her
leg stitched, they both ran to her and were worried if she was
going to die or not, she smiled and said, “Everything is going to
be alright, we are going to go back home and stay with grandma for
a while, daddy is sick and needs help.”
    The police arrived at the house and
seen the front door open, inside there was a trail of blood through
the house, they also found the vehicle out back with the girls
blood on the dash and the bloody room in the
