Chapter 2: A place to stay

Walking along the street at 3 in the morning was a 16 year old kid

( how did I get here he thought, I don't remember anything, my head hurts, my whole body hurts but yet, I feel amazing, like I just finally woke up from a deep slumber. )

Rex was walking back from where he came, he didn't know how but he just had the feeling he was walking in the right direction, he couldn't remember what happened last night but all he knew was he woke up standing, he was covered in blood and just started walking, he felt like he was in a trance but in a good way. Tracing his steps he walked all the way back to his house, when he got they're he saw the police, they where just taking out the bodies of his parents when he arrived.

"Hold on who's that" a policeman said pointing at rex, he continued walking forward.

"Halt!" they yelled and pulled they're magic guns at him but a woman came in front of them.

"stop, I know him, he's a family member of the deceased"

"huh?!"

while they where talking Rex finally stopped and looked at around.

( The whole neighborhood is outside, I wonder what happened ) he thought, suddenly flash backs of his family's death came back to him and he instinctively started running to the body bags, "hey wait" a policeman yelled but Rex didn't listen, he ran to the body back and opened it, a smell entered his nose, he recognized the body, the smell, the clothes, it was his father's body but there was no head.

Rex started balling his eyes out while everyone watched, the police wondered if he was really a member of the dead family, the one who called them and also wondered why he was covered in blood meanwhile the whole neighborhood was feeling sympathy for the poor boy as he cried for his dead family.

A few minutes later Rex was in the police station being interrogated by the police.

"So tell us. what happened" they said and rex narrated what happened last night, tears rolled down his eyes and his voice shook as he recounted the gruesome encounter with the masked man.

"ok so after you ran what happened next, why where you covered in blood and your clothes turn", rex wanted to speak but he couldn't, he his memory was fuzzy and he had a huge head ache just trying to remember what happened

"I ..I don't remember, I ran into some guys and after that I don't remember what happened next, I just woke up this morning and started walking back home" he said.

The detective who was interrogating Rex, detective Connor looked at his partner, detective Stacy as they both looked back at rex, "wait here, we'll be back with you shortly" Stacy said as they stepped outside.

Connor was a man in his early thirties, he had black hair and brown eyes, muscular in physique and tall as well, he was a man who took his work seriously and hardly cared about nothing else, after dropping out from the military this was the only job he could get, meanwhile Stacy was a woman with blond hair, green eyes, slender legs and a small waist, she was endowed with a firm perfect sized pair of boobs and her hips where also a bit larg as well, she was a beauty and attracted attention wherever she went but had a commanding present and intimidating aura, no man had the nerves to cross path with her or even attempt to make a move because of her never changing expression and serious demeanor.

"So what do you think" she asked her partner

"he probably fainted from running, plus I can't imagine what was going through his head after witnessing the death of his family members"

"but what about the blood on his clothes and the cuts as well","those where knife cuts and the blood on him isn't his"

"what are you insinuating" Stacy Connor said with a raised eyebrow

"I just have this feeling that there's more to this story he isn't telling us"

"Stacy, a kid just lost his family members, he's practically an orphan now let him be"

"but he's our only lead to the culprit"

"yes but we can't detain him like he's a suspect Stacy he's a victim who luckily survived, not to mention the heads of the deceased are missing so it's obvious who it is"

"you really think they would come here and attack a random family?"

"haven't they been doing that for the last year now? who knows what these psycho's are after"

"so now what, we put the kid in an orphanage? I don't think they have orphanages for 16 year olds" Stacy said

"don't worry, a family has decided to take him in" Connor said as he looked through the hall way towards a woman sitting on a chair.

It was the same woman who had spoke up when the police first met Rex, his neighbor Miss Roselle. She was they're neighbor and long time family friend, she was also the first person they talked to when they first moved in and had remaind close friends with the family, may always stayed in her place whenever her brother went out or rather got dragged out by his friends. she would play with may as she worked from home and when hee daughter came home she would hand may over to her while she continued her work.

Miss Becky Roselle was a beautiful woman which a cute face, long brown hair and light brown eyes, she had a mature figure with big breasts and ass to add to her beauty, she had a nice personality, always treating everyone with kindness and always had a smile on her face, when Rex was released he was handed over to her but had to wait while she filled in the documents to be his legal guardian, after a few minutes they went home and Rex packed his belongings and moved over to her house, they had an extra room so he could stay with them for the day.

The police told her it wasn't safe as the killer was still on the loose and might come for Rex so she, rex and her daughter Stephany went to live in her old house, one she lived in before she got married. It was in a whole other town so That ment Rex and Stephany had to change schools, they're friends and neighbors where informed before hand but Becky had to inform Rex's friends as he didn't talk to her or anyone, for days he didn't speak, go out or do anything, he didn't leave his room even to eat, she thought the death of his family had broke him mentally so she tried her best to cheer him up, she bought him video games, action figures and even erotic magazines for his alone time but nothing worked, at one point she visited him in his room and expressed her feelings of sadness when she found out what happened to his family, she cried that knight and unknowingly slept with him in his room.

Days turned into weeks and just like that a months had past but still Rex didn't show any signs recovering. But what she didn't know or anyone else for that matter was that Rex had long recovered from his family's tragedy, the reason he still stayed in his room was fear, fear that his nightmares where a reality, fear or what he did and what he had become.

Why he thought to himself, (why do I keep having the same dream, why does my mind keep playing tricks on me, why do I feel my nightmares are a reality), "almost importantly" he said as he looked at the ceiling but his focus was else where

"why is there a gaming screen in front of me."
