When I came to the realization that my wife was laying in front of our apartment door dead in a pool of blood, I ran over to her and cradled her in my arms. All I could do was yell and scream until my voice became ravished. There was not a single soul out here to help me or my dead wife. Now I would never have to tell my wife we could not keep our daughter or this apartment.
Finally someone came into the apartment complex I was shaken and awaken by a man and three police officers. They helped me up away from my wife who was now cold as ice. How long had I been out? One, two or three hours? I stood up to find myself covered in cold blood …….. my wife’s blood. I unlocked the door to our apartment and sat at the dining room table. I then remembered that the gang of teenagers had taken my daughter! Standing up in panic I headed towards the front door I had to go out and find my daughter. “Hay wait a minute where are you going!” One of the cops stood in front of me while the other one grabbed my arm. “Let me go! I have to find my daughter!” “Not until you sit down and tell us what happened.” One of the cops growled. I turned to look at the three cops and the man who called them. “A gang of teenagers killed my wife and took my daughter!” I yelled in raged at all four of them. Now I noticed the third cop was a woman I looked at her as it was my first time seeing her as they all got here. She took me gently and sat me back down at the dining room table. She sat down in front of me while the other two cops stood along with the man. “Can you tell us what happened here?” she asked. I took a deep breath still unable to console my rage and anger. I looked at the woman cop straight in the eyes. “I had just gotten home with my wife and new born baby girl when a gang group of teenagers attacked us at the front entrance of our apartment complex. They stabbed my wife five times and took my daughter.” I dropped my head unto the dining room table and sobbed uncontrollably. My wife was dead and my daughter was missing she is only three days old. The woman cop took my statement after one hour they all gathered and left the apartment. I sat at the dining room table in unbelievable shock realizing I was now alone. What was I going to do? Then it finally hit me. Here I am living in the ghetto no one not even the cops were going to do anything about my dead wife and missing daughter. There was nothing I could do about Kellie, but I had to go out and find my daughter. Going into the bedroom to find more warm clothing I got dressed took what I could use as a weapon and went out to find my daughter. Kellie was dead and now I had no choice to but to go back home with my parents and raise my daughter.

It was now eight fifteen in the evening and it was dark. I roamed the first three blocks looking for any sign of the gang and my daughter. What in the hell would five teenagers want with a two day old baby? What in god’s name was wrong with people these days? If they hurt my daughter so help me! I will go to jail! I desperately lurked the neighborhood looking for any kind of recognition of the gang or anything that would lead me to them. Over five blocks away not too far from the hospital there was old rundown vacant building. The building was boarded up in some apartments, but I could see light and fires going on in some of them. This means the vacant apartment building was useful. The gang could not have gone far with my daughter. Smiling looking up at the eight story high apartment building I just had the gut feeling that’s where they have taken my daughter. I will kill them all stone dead. Walking faster up to the apartment building I could tell there were squatters there. Running from around the side of the vacant building I spotted one of the teenagers who took my daughter. There three of them wearing black hoodies and the other two wore grey. Now that I could think clearly as I remembered them running away with my daughter there were three teenage boys and two girls. The guys must be the ones wearing the black hoodies as they were much taller than the two wearing the grey ones. The teenager ran into the front entrance of the vacant apartment building looking back at me and closed the door. Picking up more speed struggling to run through the snow, I forced my way up to the double doors of the apartment building. The building was a big building, but at least I knew where my daughter was now. I hope they did not hurt her and she is still alive. Clutching the big butcher knife I had planted into my coat pocket, I ran inside the building. Standing in the dark depths of the long hallway I could tell that this building was set on fire. From the looks of it outside there was no way to tell that the building had any kind of fire damage. Standing in the middle of the hallway my eyes opened in horror as I watched the halls turn into ghostly charred dimensions. This was no ordinary vacant apartment building. Down on the first floor there were ten rooms farther down the hall away from the front desk. Five on both sides of the hallway. As I proceeded down the hall, I could hear agonizing torturous wailing sounds coming from all the room on the first floor. Terrified I stopped to look in through the square shaped window in front of the doors to find there were people in these rooms…..
I stood in front of the first door looking inside as I watched a woman; she was standing in front of something. There was nobody else in the room besides her and whatever she was standing in front of. The woman stopped what she was doing and slowly turned to face me looking inside through the glass in the middle of the door. I scramble back in horror as I got a good look at the woman’s face. Her face was butchered and mutilated with sharp rotted teeth agape from a large wide whole in the center of her face which turned out to be her mouth. She was screaming, hissing at me in rage and anger. I stood there in horror forcing myself to continue to look inside

the room through the glass window and she continued to hiss at me. I could now get a good look at what she was standing in front of …..it was a baby crib with a dead rotted baby lying inside. The woman was coming for the door I turned and ran down the hallway as fast as I could with sweat pouring down the side of my face. As I got to the end of the hall I stopped and looked back to the first door in which I had ran from. I did not see the woman coming out of the room neither did I see her vengeful face or hear her evil hissing. Catching my breath as I rounded the corner I came to rest at a group of elevators that lead up to the second floor. This was a huge building, but it seems that its rooms were not apartments they were…..asylum rooms. This was not an apartment building this was asylum! I took the elevator up to the second floor. The elevators went to the second floor opened with a rumble I got out and stood in front of them as they closed nosily behind me. Staring down the dark hallway there was cold chill
