It was perfectly a beautiful day. Mort was sitting at his writing desk with his small black labtop lying in front of him. This story would sell big. It would be successful...Mort could feel it.

With light shining through the secret window, the rustling of the leaves could be seen gently floating in the wind.

Amy walked behind Mort in that soft striped bathrobe that Mort loved so much. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she kissed him on the cheek and whispered in his ear, "I love you, Mr. Rainey."

Things were perfect..........love, life, inspirations,......everything.....

Then darkness came over the house. Amy's warm embrace disappeared, the labtop crumbled before Mort's eyes, and the secret window had lost it's bright sunlight.

Turning his eyes to the small window frame, the silloutte of a black brimmed hat and man could be seen peeking inside. "Ya better wake up before I have turn your lights off permanently," spoke the voice in Mort's head.

Mort's body jolted and his eyes shot open. In one fluid moment the man was sitting up staring up at the ceiling, shaken, ridden in sweat and breaths gasping for cold air.

"No!" he shouted in response to the voice that had been in his dream.

Shannon gasped, when Mort woke up. She jumped back and landed on her butt. She stared at him wide-eyed and scared to move. She was still crying, but not as loudly as she had been before. She swallowed hard and pulled her legs up to her chest, not knowing what to say or do to Mort.

Mort looked around. What happened? How did he end up here? Last he remembers was he was in the kitchen.

His distressed face met eyes with Shannon who was not too far away. She looked like she was in a state of terror, of pure fear and sadness.

"Sh-Shannon?" came a dry cracked voice from Mort's throat.

Shannon continued staring at Mort in complete fear. "Why?" She whispered to him, getting ready to burst into another fit of tears. She bit hard on her lower lip, so that she wouldn't suddenly cry out. "I thought I knew you..." She sobbed and then covered her face, trying to scoot away from both of the boys.

"Ya might want ta explain ta her, Mr. Rainey. After all, she is mighty perdy," came that familiar twang echoing in Mort's head.

The house became dim and all light was focused on Shannon's face.

Mort's stomach twisted and his heart pounded in pain. He felt a figure at the side of him. A dead one. It looked covered in the colour of red.

Fighting as hard as he could, Mort tried not to look, but someone or something forced his neck to the side and there the body of Dan was revealed to him. Pale, dressed in blood and cold.

"AH!" Mort screamed and crawled away from it. "My god..." he said trying not to look at it anymore, "...what has happened...what has happened?"

Shannon looked over to Mort, seeming to be confused. "You..." She drifted off and watched him closely, with a raised eyebrow. "You don't remember anything, do you?" She asked him softly and wiped some of her tears away. She didn't know what to expect from Mort anymore.

"This had ta be settled," Shooter's voice echoed. "Don't ya remember? I did this thing so you wouldn't have to."

Mort swallowed hard and glanced down at his hands. They were covered in dried blood...it was not his. Across the floor near Dan's body was the black hat.

"Are you O.K.?" Mort asked quickly. "Did he…did he hurt you?"

Shannon shook her head and swallowed hard. "No... I'm fine. But, who are you talking about? Who else would've hurt me?" She asked Mort softly and looked into his eyes, seeming utterly confused with what he was talking about.

The thump of boots began to stomp toward Mort, "Don't ya start blamin' me for your problems, Mr. Rainey. You'll pay big time if ya start askin' her about me. Shut yer trap. I'm warnin' ya!"

The shadow of John's lean frame towered over Mort as he approached.

Mort couldn't help himself. He had to get away, out of Shooter's towering shadow. He crawled up to Shannon like a scared child and placed his bloody hands tight onto her shoulders.

"My god, Shannon! Shooter! John Shooter!" he screamed in her face.

Shannon's eyes widened slightly at Mort and stared into his eyes, as he yelled at her. "John Shooter? That sounds like one of your characters in your book." She told him softly and swallowed hard. She was starting to get worried about Mort.

The footsteps had stopped.....because they were now directly behind Mort. "Do that one more time, and I'm warnin' ya!" Shooter said angrily. Range and anger was filling the space between Mort and Shooter.

Mort tubbed his temples.

What do I tell her?

The truth.

No. Wouldn't work. I can't.

Don’t you see that it doesn’t matter? She’s not running!

I haven’t told her about the murders...

Maybe you don’t have to. Not yet. And…You might want to say something.

Mort then simply blurted, "Shanon, I think I’m losing my mind." He raised his head and his eyes pleaded with her. "I hear things…in my mind…I shouldn’t be saying thi-…"
