"The Moon is about to go up, And we still have a long way to go to reach  Eastborne.. " Diego complains as he Pushes the cart which I and Evan are riding on.

"You know I could help you push.." I quietly say almost like a whisper, "Thank you for your consideration, But you've been searching and walking around that Burnt Village for who knows how long. Just relax till we reach  Eastborne." Maria quickly replies.

See? I told you to just relax My subconscious scolds me.

I took a glance at Evan to check if he was doing okay, Then I looked in front of me. Up ahead was a dirt road which looked like it go on forever. So I decided to sleep to waste some time instead of dying from boredom.

"Should we Kill them now?"  I could hear a voice that wasn't clear to me. The voice was close by but distort. I closed my eyes and hunkered down, shutting off the rest of the world except that voice, praying that I could hear more of the conversation without getting caught. "Yes, This is the perfect opportunity." Then I realized it was Maria talking.

Kill them? Are they talking about me and Evan? I started to worry And Panic I felt the Wagon stop and the sound of Metal Sharpening.

Why are they trying to kill us?! I keep repeating that question in my Head, But if I wanted to stay Alive I had to think of something..Diego is a really big guy so fighting isn't an option.

Or is it?

I felt like my Heart just skipped a beat. Because that wasn't me speaking. Or thinking. It reminded me of the Voice before I woke up in the middle of nowhere.

Don't be scared, You've already heard me before remember?

I didn't reply knowing that I'll panic more if I continue to talk or think back to the voice.

I see that you're in danger.. but you're in luck since The moon is just about to come up. .

****
I hate my life. I panicked and grabbed Evan as I jumped out of the Wagon and made some distance between me and Diego.

"What happened Dear? What's the sudden Scared look in your face?" Maria asked knowing that we heard them, "Honey I think they've heard us about our plan to kill them slowly and dell their body parts for meat." Diego Replies.

I began to sweat from head to bottom,  I know it's disgusting but I just couldn't hold my nervousness anymore. I'm not fearless nor brave, I'm a coward.

I began taking steps backward whenever Diego took a step forward. "Why are you walking away Boy? We just need some money, And selling the two of you after we kill you could be worth a lot!" Maria excitedly says.

"Lo-Look you don't want to sell me or Evan!" I suddenly shouted back, "And why is that?" Maria replies with a smile across her chubby Face.

"Uh..Because I taste bad! And Evan here is no better than m-" Before I could finish my reason I should not be sold as meat, I tripped backward.

Diego laughed loudly, "It has been tiring for me to push you all the way here, But I'll sure enjoy the money we will receive after killing you both!" He says through his laughter.

He took another big step forward as I try to get up, "It's useless trying to escape. Your obviously still too tired and weak to run with a Baby in your arms." Diego points out.

Just when I stood Diego was now just 2 steps away from me. from this distance, he can easily grab me and just kill me. Yeah I have no faith in myself 

Just as I tried to take a step back Diego swang the large knife he was holding at me and if there wasn't a rock behind my foot which caused me to trip (again) I would have gotten a serious cut (or died)

"Your a lucky one aren't you?" He said before he walked at me with his hand gripping on the knife, Ready to swing it again. I kept throwing small rocks at him with my free hand and for some reason, Evan is still asleep His one deep sleeper...

Then Diego swang his Knife and this time there isn't a rock that will make me trip and save my life. This is the End.

****

  Diego screams in pain as large claws sink into his skin, leaving deep marks along his flesh. As a reflex, he loses his grip on the knife and it tumbles to the ground. Maria watches in horror and a scream emits from her throat as she turns and runs towards the east, leaving behind her husband, Diego.  

He falls to the ground, watching as his wife fades into the distance. Her betrayal struck him harder than the wounds bleeding from his body.  He tries to open his mouth...maybe to scream her name...maybe something else...but only blood gushes out.

Diego tries to use the Wagon to support his failing body and sits there with his arm around the wound attempting to stop the bleeding, Vickey stands over him casting a shadow upon Diego in silence, "Wh-at..Are..Y-ou.." Diego attempted to speak but ends up stuttering from the fear growing in him.

Vickey looks at him with his bloodthirsty eyes filled with revenge and anger as he stood there in silence.
