Chapter 3: The monster’s true power

Ryan dashed to Jake and saw the pictures Jake showed. Zoe woke up already and took a look as well. They saw the same thing Jake did: It was a match. They were the same person. Tommy Ridgewell was the monster. There was no other option. But how did he turn into that... thing? Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Zoe opened it and her students Felix and Emily were there. They were holding their hands behind their back.
Zoe: “Oh hello, Felix and Emily. What can I do for you two?”
Emily: “We got something for you, miss.”
Felix: “And for your husband as well. Oh, and not to forget: We’ve been working on something for your baby too.”
Zoe: “Oh my... Come on in!”
Felix and Emily were going inside the house. They never saw such a clean house. But what they also noticed: Ryan was there.
Ryan: “Oh, hey guys.”
Emily: “Hi, Mr. Grant.”
Felix: “Wait, you live here, Mr. Grant?”
Ryan: “What? Of course not! You silly!”
Felix: “Haha! I was just joking around!”
Ryan: “But why are you two here?”
Emily: “We got something for Miss Flowerfield! And her husband... Eh... Jake... McFish? Fisher... Oh wait, McFisher!”
Jake: “Heeey! Third time’s lucky, as I used to say when I was your age! But wow, something for us both?”
Felix: “And the child.”
Zoe: “I’m curious what you guys made for us. Can I see it?”
Emily: “Well, you’ve been such a great teacher... Of course!”
Felix: “That’s why we’re here.”
Emily gave a present to Jake. It had the size of a thin book. But it was no thin book at all. Jake opened it carefully. It was a big pink piece of paper, with a message from the entire class and each student even put down their own message to Zoe. The messages were written on light blue paper and cut out and pasted on the pink paper. A few messages were “Hey, Zoe. Good luck with the upcoming baby and I hope it’s a boy! Zack” and “Hey Zoe! I hope your baby will be a girl, because that would be awesome! #ZoeIsCool!!! Emily”. Of course there are 11 other messages on it, but the message the entire class made: “Hello, Zoe! We made this collage for you, your husband and your child! We’re glad you made another step forward in your awesome life! Take care! Class 1-C” Zoe just couldn’t believe that. Her students did this without request, yet it turned out great. Zoe smiled at Felix and Emily. Jake laid his arm over Zoe’s shoulder.
Zoe: “Thank you guys so much. I love it!”
Felix: “You’re welcome, Miss Flowerfield.”
Emily: “We have something else as well.”
Emily gave a little box with a cube shape to Zoe. It had a little ribbon on it. Zoe opened it and saw a ring inside it. A plain, gold colored ring, but still: It’s a gift.
Zoe: “Ooh, wow! Thanks, guys! Who’s idea was this?”
Felix: “Oh, that would be Emily’s idea. She mostly likes this kind of situations.”
It was getting dark. It was already 18:30 PM or something.
Zoe: “Aww, thanks guys. I won’t forget this easily. But you two should go home now. It’s getting late. I will bring you guys home, as I want to thank your parents as well.”
Felix: “Oh, but this was our own idea.”
Zoe: “I know but still, I want to thank your parents anyway.”
Zoe opened the car door and went inside the car. Felix and Emily went in it too. And they went to Felix’ house and Emily’s house.

A little while later, in the forest nearby...

Two policemen were investigating the forest, as someone found a dead body in there. The two were called Peter and Derek.
Derek: “Brr, I don’t like forests at night.”
Peter: “Don’t whine and help me get this log away.”
Derek and Peter were moving away a wooden log, which fell on the ground.
Derek: “Holy... Peter! Look at this!!”
Peter dashed to Derek, who was at the log’s ending point. There were scratches in it, covered with red paint. Well, that’s what they thought.
Derek: “Something’s here. It probably was the killer!”
Peter grabbed Derek’s arm when he wanted to grab a stick. Peter looked mad.
Peter: “Look, if you go wild because of something tiny one more time, I’ll make sure you stop the hard way!”
Derek: “*gulp* O-okay.”
Peter released Derek and they were looking at the scratch.
Peter: “I’ll look over there. You stay here and investigate this log. Perhaps you make a picture of it.”
Derek grabbed the photo camera and took a photo of the log. Suddenly, he heard a lot of leaves falling down and a noise that sounded like someone sliced an apple in 2 pieces. Derek looked around and saw a hole.
Derek: “Uhm, Peter?! I found somethi-...”
Derek ran towards the hole, but he saw a lot of wooden spikes and... He saw Peter? Peter’s body was used on these spikes as a chicken on a stick. He was clearly dead.
Derek: “Oh no... PETER!!!!”
???: “...Hhhh...”
Derek heard someone’s breath. He looked around, but saw nothing, let go no one. Only the trees and leaves. Then he turned back to the hole and Peter’s body was gone. Only his blood trails were left on the spikes. Derek made a photo of it, but once the camera made a flash, Derek saw a creature at the other side of the hole. He made another picture, and saw it clearly for a second: Bold, white skin, bloody eyes, tentacles on its back... It’s no human anymore. Derek yelled a lot when he saw its mean look.
???: “...Hhhhh...”
That sound... It was that creature! It wanted to breathe but couldn’t breathe at all. Derek couldn’t stop yelling and suddenly, the creature ran towards Derek. It knocked Derek to the ground and indeed, Derek fell. The monster scratched him a lot with its sharp claws. The blood went all over the place. Derek couldn’t feel his torso because of the pain, and suddenly the creature stabbed his heart with a sharp tentacle. Blood was shattered everywhere again.
Derek: “GAAH!...”
Derek looked at the monster. It was smiling to Derek. The monster’s white eyes were looking hostile. And then Derek died as well. Once Derek was dead, the monster pulled back it’s tentacle and vanished in the distance.

3 weeks later...

Mike woke up after having a weird dream. He dreamed Jess wasn’t his girlfriend but some sort of weird person who wanted to get Mike’s attention. And Ryan was weird in the dream too. Mike went off his bed and put on some proper clothes. It was, again, pretty hot that night. Mike went downstairs and saw an enormous mess on the dining table. It was unbelievable. Mike wasn’t pretty happy, but didn’t quite notice his music sheet is wet from the coffee on the table. But once he took a cup of coffee, he did notice.
Mike: “Oh no! Aaaargh! My music sheet!”
Mike heard someone laughing behind the couch. He recognized the laugh and took a look. It was, as expected, Ryan. He sneaked into the house, apparently. Mike grabbed Ryan’s short hair and pulled him up.
Ryan: “Ow, ow, ow.”
Mike: “You think this is funny? You think my job is a joke?!”
Ryan: “Huh? What?”
Mike: “Don’t say you don’t know what happened. Because you do know.”
Ryan raised his hands.
Ryan: “I swear, I don’t know if something’s gone!”
Mike: “The coffee, Ryan.”
Mike pointed at the wet table. The coffee was all over the place.
Mike: “That’s the problem.”
Ryan: “Oh, that wasn’t what I wanted. Sorry.”
Mike: “Clean it.”
Ryan: “What?”
Mike looked at Ryan.
Mike: “Clean the (****) mess before I get even more angry.”
Ryan grabbed a mop and a bucket with water. He started to clean the mess. Mike turned on the TV. The news was on.
Newsman: “...were Derek Carson and Peter Arseman. They were found dead in the woods nearby. Peter was found with huge spikes in him, Derek was being attacked by an animal. The policemen were investigating a murder over there. Other policemen are now investigating the scene. And now, the weather. Molly?”
Ryan: “I KNEW IT! Mike! Those policemen...”
Mike held his fingers in his ears.
Mike: “First you’ll clean this up.”
Ryan: “Right...”
Ryan was done when it was around 11:00 AM. Ryan laid down the mop and dashed to Mike.
Ryan: “But what I wanted to say: These policemen are going to be dead!”
Mike (while going to the kitchen): “And why is that, you think?”
Ryan: “You know that monster Philip ‘knows’?”
Mike: “What monster?”
Ryan: “Right, you weren’t there when Jake and I discussed that. Okay, Jake and I found out that Philip gave us that book without one page, and it was…”
Mike: “I was kidding, Ryan. But why do you think they’re dead?”
Ryan: “If the monster is that Tommy Philip was family with, and there are already dead people in the forest… Then that’s his home. The forest.”
Ryan looked a bit shocked when he said that.
Mike: “Dang, dude. I think I just made up something new.”
Ryan went to the door.
Ryan: “No time for that idea. I need to warn the others not to go the-...”
BANG!!!
Ryan heard an enormous sound and saw a hole in the wall next to him. He turned around and saw Mike holding a gun.
Ryan: “What? That gun... I remember it...”
Mike: “Indeed, it always lays in the basement, you dummy.”
Mike opened the door and threw the gun downstairs. Halfway down the stairs was where it stopped falling. Mike closed the door and went to Ryan.
Mike: “But listen, gather everyone and say we have to make a trip to the woods.”
Ryan: “WHAT!? Are you INSANE?!”
Mike: “Yes, kind of. But hey... I got a girlfriend, you don’t. But anyway, I don’t say the others will die, but I know a friend who lives there and…”
Ryan: “No, Mike! We’re not going to that crazy forest!”
Mike: “...and he knows how to fight the monster.”
Ryan: Well, if you think I’m going to kill a monster... Then you, sir, are wrong!”
Ryan still opened the door.
Mike: “Ryan.”
Ryan: “No, I’m serious. I won’t fight a stupid monster.”
Mike: “But that’s the backyard.”
Ryan looked through the window. It was indeed the backyard he almost went in. Ryan turned around to look at Mike.
Ryan: “Right, go on.”
Mike: “We can fight back that monster. I know that friend of mine has special weapons to fight it back.”
Ryan: “But... If that’s true, then why is the monster still here?”
Mike: “Because he lost his leg when he almost gave the monster everything he had. Only a little bit of the weapon was used and the monster had pain, according to him.”
Ryan: “Wow.”
Mike: “So, pack your stuff. We’re going. I’ll get the others.”
Ryan: “Wait, hold on. I’m not going in the...”
Mike: “Pack your stuff. We’re going. I’ll get the others.”
Ryan: “Okay...”
Ryan went home at last to pack his stuff. Mike grabbed the phone and called Anna. He told her they’re going to the forest. And so on with the others as well.

Meanwhile...

Zoe was going to her parent’s home, to tell the important news. She arrived at her old home, before she left the house to live on her own. Well, not entirely on her own: Her parents paid things Zoe couldn’t pay, but only if Zoe had to buy something that’s expensive and important at the same time. She rang the doorbell. Lily (Her mother) opened the door.
Lily: “Zoe!! What a surprise! I haven’t seen you in 3 months!”
Lily hugged Zoe tight.
Zoe: “Hi, mom! Is... dad here too? Or is he still...”
Lily: “Your dad is still at the hospital, dear. He had trouble with his leg again. But come on in!”
They were going inside the house, and went to the living room. Lily made a cup of coffee for Zoe, and Zoe sat on the couch.
Zoe: “When does it end?”
Lily: “When does what end, dear?”
Zoe: “Well, dad is at the hospital a lot... I wished he had no trouble with his legs anymore...”
Lily: “Don’t worry about your father. He’s getting older each day and... Well... These things just happen. But you should focus on your future with Jake.”
Zoe: “Ah, yes... Speaking of him, I want to tell you something once dad returns.”
Lily: “That long? Dear, Nathan returns in the evening. Are you sure you want to...”
Zoe: “Yes... I want him to know this as well. I’ve been telling this to all my friends, other teachers at work, to... everyone I knew. But I forgot you two, so I decided to tell it to you as well.”
Lily: “Hm... Now I’m really curious. But I love surprises, and I’m patient.”
Zoe: “Haha! Now I know from who I have the patience and love for surprises!”
Lily: “Yep! From me! But how’s Jake doing, dear?”
Zoe: “Well, he’s doing good. He has to watch out that he doesn’t make the supermarket his home, though.”
Lily: “Does he like working that much, then?”
Zoe: “You can count on that. But other than that, he’s still the great boyfriend I know.”
Suddenly, the front door was getting unlocked and opened. It was Nathan. He wiped his feet and went to the living room. He saw Zoe and Lily on the couch.
Nathan: “Hey, princess!! Gee, that’s a long time ago since I’ve seen you the last time!”
Zoe went up and went to her father to give him a hug.
Zoe: “Hey, dad! I was waiting for you. But mom told me you actually came in the evening?”
Lily: “Yeah, I thought you came...”
Nathan: “Yeah, but they were done already. So I was allowed to leave now. But I’ll go and return in the evening if you two want.”
Zoe: “Dad, I think I need to practice some of your best jokes.”
Nathan: “Why is that, princess?”
Zoe: “Well... Sit down.”
Nathan: “Woof.”
Nathan went on the couch Lily sat on. They paid all their attention to Zoe.
Lily: “Well, Nathan’s here now. Go ahead!
Zoe: “Mom, dad, I don’t know how you two will respond to this... But Jake and I expect a baby to come.”
Nathan was silent. And Lily was as well. Nathan suddenly went up. He looked kind of serious.
Nathan: “Zoe Flowerfield. You tell us that you’re pregnant?”
Zoe: “Yes, dad. And don’t worry about my independence: We’ll be fine. We already discussed the important things.”
Nathan: “That’s not the thing that bothers me, Zoe. The only thing that bothers me is that if you can’t afford something important, we have to pay it. You’re not entirely independent, Zoe.”
Zoe: “But... Dad...”
Nathan: “No, Zoe. You’ll have to agree with the fact that from now on we can’t help you anymore.”
Zoe: “*sigh* Okay, dad... I’ll remember it. And what do you think, mom?”
Lily: “Well, I’m quite shocked... If you think you can handle this...”
Zoe: “Mom, trust me: I can handle it. And Jake agreed with this choice.”
Zoe went up.
Zoe: “I should head home now. Jake probably is waiting for dinner.”
Lily: “But why isn’t he cooking by himself, then?”
Zoe: “Because I think that it’s not a great idea to let him cook.”

To be continued...

Just a quick note: I’ll probably do 5 or 6 chapters this time. That’s because I have a lot of projects going on and this series doesn’t need to be as long as it was previously.

Another note: Some ...'s turned into a _. This is because i couldn't master Microsoft Word 2010 very well. Now i can, so in this chapter and in chapter 4 (The last one) it's normal.
