“This man could be dangerous,”
“He’s my boyfriend,” Amy called out. “Did he break any laws?”
Anthony Stone pulled the hooded man up to his feet. “Why didn’t you just tell me you were waiting for Amy?”
“Because it’s none of your damn business who I’m waiting for!” The hooded man barked as Anthony Stone removed the cuffs from his wrist. “I want your name and badge number!” He barked.
“I’m sorry,” Anthony Stone apologized. Uncle Sam had his mind playing tricks on him; he was so stuck on catching the serial killer that it messed up his judgment. “Amy I’m sorry about that,” he said then disappeared inside his apartment building.
Showtime
The next evening, Lisa sat at the bar alone. For the past hour, she’d been throwing beers back left and right. Her heavy drinking had grabbed the attention of a heavyset man that sat at the end of the bar nursing a drink. His intentions were to hopefully find a chick that had a bit too much to drink, take her home, and take advantage of her. When the right moment presented itself, the big man eased his way down the bar and helped himself to the open seat next to Lisa.
“Hey beautiful,” the big man said with a smile. Lisa gave the big man a once over and returned his smile. “Heeeey how are you?” She sang acting more intoxicated than she really was.
“What you doing in a place like this all by yourself?” The big man asked.
“Just needed a quick getaway, you know,” Lisa chuckled, playing the role of a drunk woman perfectly. Anyone on the outside looking in would have sworn that the woman at the bar was wasted.
“A getaway from what?” The big man asked. “Listen; if someone is bothering you I can protect you.”
Lisa rubbed the big man’s arm seductively. “Hey I think I’ve had one too many, do you mind walking me out to my car?”
“Sure,” the big man said happily. This was the opportunity he was waiting for. A chance to get the woman outside and away from all the eyes in the bar. The big man escorted Lisa outside. “Where are you parked?” He asked placing his arm on the small of her back.
“Two blocks down,” Lisa slurred as she felt the big man’s hand slide down to her butt sneaking some cheap feels. The big man’s hand all over her disgusted her, but she continued to play the role. Lisa led the big man down a dark street and headed towards a Honda Accord. “Thank you so much for making sure I made it to my car safe I really appreciate it.”
“The pleasure was all mine,” the big man said invading, Lisa’s personal space. The big man got ready to let his hands explore Lisa when he heard somebody loudly clear their throat behind him. The big man spun around and saw a man in a hoodie with his head down holding an ax in his hands. “What the hell is going on?” The big man asked in a panic tone. He reached down in his pocket and removed his cell phone so he could call the police, but before he could press the first number, Lisa jammed a knife repeatedly down into the side of the big man’s neck until he crumbled down to the floor.
Reggie walked up, looked at Lisa, and smiled when her saw her face covered in specs of blood. Without warning, Reggie lifted the ax over his head, and then brought it down with tremendous force repeatedly until there were no more body parts left to cut. Reggie looked up right in time to see Lisa heave and throw up all the food that she had consumed earlier right on the ground. It was at that very moment he knew he was going to have to kill Lisa. Her DNA now laid on the concrete of a murder scene. Just as he predicted, she wasn’t built for this type of life. Reggie knew that before sunrise, the cops would be at Lisa’s doorstep questioning her. If he had to bet, he was sure that if the right amount of pressure were applied she would give him up without thinking twice. “Come on we have to get out of here!” Reggie said as they both slipped inside the Honda
