CAROLINE'S POV

I bent down to dip my index finger in a puddle of red liquid left by Rex.

That sure was blood.

I got up to my now trembling feet with face pale and eyes lifeless.

KEVIN'S POV

I was just standing there. I didn't feel like doing anything. We lost Samantha. I just don't wanna believe anything like this further.

Caroline got up. Her look - completely unusual. As if a nightmare of her had become true.

She turned her head towards my direction. Her pupils had contracted, body stiffened. She stared into my soul and then gave me a hesitant nod.

I couldn't understand...

My eyes landed on her hand to find her index finger coated with the reddish substance spread around by Rex.

It clicked me. I now had nothing to reply.

JENNIFER'S POV

Groaning to myself, I shook my head violently. I glanced around and saw the stiffened people around me.

Why was it so?

Before any other new thought, I heard the police's siren followed by the opening and shutting of a car door.

"Hands up!"

They were pointing pistols in our direction.

"We ain't guilty!" I protested.

"Yes sir they ain't," whispered one of the officer, loud enough for us to hear. "They too are possible future victims."

"The criminal will be under arrest before that," glared the inspector to the officer.

The whole team reached near us, a few of them taking captures.

"Step aside everyone. Let us do our work."

With this they  strode towards the main gate of Lance's house.

Rex entered the scene. He barked agressively on the officers twice and then again began to encircle Kevin.

KEVIN'S POV

The golden retriever was encircling me but I couldn't care less.

"Mind telling how are you related to the victim?" enquired one of the officers.

"I, in fact these two young ladies too are the friends of the so called victim, Lance," replied I monotonously.

"Follow us in then."

With that they vanished into the house.

Jen was the first one to take a step forward. She dragged Caroline by her wrist along with her and signalled me to follow.

Her eyes full with determination?

The rest of the officers were busy in dispersing the crowd while Rex was put on a leash out of the crime zone.

We walked through the blood flooded corridor, to the hall.

Lance's, uh no, a hand brutally cut off was lying near the couch...

My heart ached at seeing that merciless murder of a friend.

The police team put on their white surgical gloves. One of them picked up and sealed the cut off hand in a zip lock pouch with extreme delicacy.

Now we were heading towards the bedroom.

As expected, a body was lying there.

JENNIFER'S POV

As I followed the policemen to the bedroom, the first thing that caught my attention was a shoe.

Shoe soaked in blood.

Then there was a body with a missing head...

But hold on,

THAT AIN'T LANCE!
