Chapter 41

Chapter 41: Amy was waiting up with her son Derek for Casey. Well, she was waiting up. Derek was sound asleep. Suddenly, she heard footsteps coming up the stairs. She ran up to the door, expecting to see her husband, but then the door was kicked of its hinges. It smashed into her and she went flying back against the wall. Standing in the doorway was a cloaked figure...with knives extenting from its hands. "Oh my god...that's the killer..." Amy choked. The figure moved its eyes from Amy to her still sleeping son. "No...NO!" The killer was quick, but she was quicker. She slid on the couch grabbing Derek as she went. The killer swong a knived hand at her and destroyed the coffe table. Amy bolted and put Derek in a closet before turning to face her assailant. She went to their coat of arms hanging over the fireplace and drew one of the two swords hanging there. The killer charged and there was a clash of steel as thieir blades met.
Austin had finally falled asleep when he felt someone struggling with his binds. He was helped to his feet by strong, muscular arms. "It's all right Austin." A familiar voice said. "You're going to be fine."
Nick heard his front door open and ran down to the hall, shotgun drawn. Standing in the doorway, was his brother, being supported by Calvin. "Hey guys. Looks like I can't leave you alone for a minute can I?"
