Chapter 3 - Chapter 2 : Alice Fisher

Present Day

In a remote town in California, around 10:52 PM, a woman could be seen driving on a lonely road. Looking at her she is probably in her mid thirties, her blonde hair was tied in a ponytail making her look much younger. Indeed she was a beauty.

"Bzzzt, bzzzt".

She could hear her phone vibrating in the bag on the other seat.

She quickly added a little pressure on the brakes before taking the phone and answering the call.

"Hello babe"

She answered with excitement in our voice. But as the call continued her cheerful voice slowly faded.

"Ok babe" take care. Bye!

I guess I will be sleeping alone today. I think it's high time I move out since I rarely see him.

All this were the thoughts going on in her mind, when all of a sudden the left back tire ruptured and she struggled to gain control of the car, which she finally did and managed to get it to the side of the road.

"Oh I hate my life ".

She sighed and got out of the car to check the extent of the damage. Getting there, she didn't know what to think it was like part of the tire was literally ripped off.

A rustle in the woods behind made her to quickly turn around, but all she saw was the dark woods and an owl perched on a tree staring at her.

"Well this is creepy", chuckling nervously she decided to call a toll truck.

She bent inside the car and picked up the phone to make the call, but froze when she saw a silhouette walking out from the woods on the other side of the road. The silhouette suddenly stopped and a gruff voice came from it.

" I want you to start running ".

Few minutes later Alice for that is the blonde lady's name could be seen running in woods, she stumbled blindly several times, but she kept on running due to adrenaline and survival instinct.

But no matter how fast she ran, she could still hear the gruff voice close to her ear, with only one statement over and over again.

"Keep running ".

Due to the darkness, a wrong step finally made her to fall down and broke her ankle, after struggling to get up with no success, she finally decided to accept her fate. She turned around to take a good look at her attacker.

She saw the silhouette walking leisurely to her position, due to the half moon light shining she was able to see that it was a man, with a trench coat on.

"That's a nasty wound right there". The man said pointing at her leg and stopped walking.

Alice looked at her leg, and found out that she was really bleeding, surprisingly enough she wasn't in any pain, guess that's what adrenaline can do to you.

"This is gonna be a problem ". The man sighed as if he had the weight of the world on his shoulders .

Alice was just staring at him and wondering what he was blabbering about;

"if you want to kill me, you should get on with it already and save me the psycho talks..."

She wanted to say more, but the sight she suddenly witnessed stole all her words.

Right in her two eyes, the mans two upper and down canine teeth suddenly extended then her scream, broke away the silence of the night.
