That’s when I started asking question. Not out loud, of course, I’m not an idiot. Or at least I thought I wasn’t. But there were still things I need to know. ‘Where the hell was John and Alice?’ I swear they were just with me.
The cop yanked me away from the cold wall I was leaned against. He started to say something, but his words seemed turn up absent in my mind. I nodded along anyway, still wondering what happened to my friends. …show more content…
I guess that was for the best, I was dizzy and my vision wasn’t great. But when he turned me around the face into the alley, and put me into his car, I saw John. No, that’s not right. I didn’t see John. I saw an evilness like never before. All of the sudden there was something non-human about him. Something about the way his eyes pierced when he looked at me.

Alice said something that made him mad. He pulled out a gun.” This is when their eyes shot up at me. “I tried to stop him but he was too fast. She was on the ground before I could do anything. I was scared, I didn’t know what to do. John convinced me I had to help hide the body. After all, I’d already lost one friend, I couldn’t risk losing another, right?”
