The Knock on the Door
The knocking on the cabin door
was hard and rapid, just short of pounding.
“Who the fuck is that?” Sara’s
boyfriend, Jim, questioned as he got up to open the door. “It’s almost two in
the morning!”
Before she could stop him Jim
opened the door and a man covered in blood and clutching a large hammer pushed
his way in. He had a crazy look on his face and was yelling something incomprehensible. She recognized him as one of the people in
the cabin next to theirs.
He looked at Sara and
started towards her raising the hammer. Jim jumped on him from behind and they
fell to the floor. The man kept screaming as Jim did his best to hold him down.
Ned and Jan, the couple that was sharing the
cabin with them, emerged from the back bedroom to find Jim and the blood covered
man wrestling on the floor.
As Ned jumped onto the
lunatic the hammer fell to the floor. As Jan stood screaming in the corner,
Sara picked up the hammer and tried to help end the terror. She did her best to
help and started to swing the hammer at the crazy men. She wasn’t sure if the
man was dead when she stopped swinging. Jim and Ned were lying on the floor on
top of the lunatic. She couldn’t remember what happened to her girlfriend. Everything
became a blur.
The next thing she knew she
was running through the woods clutching the hammer and looking for a place to
hide. Exhausted, she finally fell and crawled under some brush and tried to be
still. She wasn’t sure if she was being followed and she didn’t want to be
found. She tried to calm her panting.
Confused, she started to go
over the events of the night. A night filled with hate, violence and terror.
How could something like this happen? They were just out for a fun weekend.
What would drive a man so crazy that he would break into a cabin filled with
strangers and try to kill them all? Why? And then she remembered.
It was all because of that
slut, Judy.
Sara had started dating Jim
about 6 months ago. He was a handsome, popular boy and many other girls had
sought his company. Sara was easily the most beautiful girl around yet was
regarded as a bit of a prude. She didn’t “put out” as they say.
Despite her reputation as a “good
girl” Jim was drawn to her. He was aggressive
and, like most boys, did all he could to bed her. Still, true to her nature,
Sara resisted most of his advances because she wanted to wait until marriage. She
would only go so far. Jim seemed to understand and backed off after his initial
attempts. It didn’t take long for Sara to decide that Jim was the man she
wanted to marry.
When she discovered the
texts on his phone from Judy everything changed. Her plans to marry Jim were
suddenly threatened in a serious way. Jim never let on that he was screwing
Judy on the side and she couldn’t confront him.
When she heard that Judy was
going to the lake for the weekend and Jim suddenly suggested that he, Sara and
their best friends go to the lake on the same weekend, Sara knew she had no
choice. It was now or never.
Jim had had too much to
drink and fell asleep on the couch. Ned and Jan had gone into the bedroom earlier.
Sara could hear the couples in the cabin next to them partying. She slipped out
of the cabin and went over to Judy’s cabin and knocked softly. A large man she
didn’t know answered the door and called to Judy.
Judy came to the door and
smiled when she saw Sara standing there. She emerged from the cabin to smoke a
cigarette, blowing the smoke casually as Sara confronted her about the affair.
Rather than deny it she just laughed at Sara.
“Oh, come on, Sara!” she
taunted. “What makes you think that a priggish little girl like you could hold
on to someone like Jim? Shit, from what he told me you won’t even jerk him off
or let him get under your shirt. It’s a shame really because you have such nice
titties.” When she reached out and ran her hand over Sara’s breasts something
in Sara snapped.
She shoved Judy as hard as she
could and Judy fell back hitting her head against the wood piled on the side of
the cabin. Sara picked up an old hammer lying near the pile and started
smashing Judy in her beautiful, smirking face.
She heard someone from
inside the cabin call out and she ran to stand by the door. Judy’s current
lover came out and called her name. It only took one blow from the hammer to
send him down. He was bleeding and unconscious when she entered the cabin.
She found the other couple
passed out on the couch wrapped in each other’s arms. Both were naked. Neither
of them ever woke up as Sara pounded their skulls into bloody messes. By the
time she was done it was impossible to see where one head ended and the other
began.
She calmly went to Judy’s
clothes, picked out some that looked much the same as her blood covered outfit
and took a shower. Her boyfriend Jim never noticed the difference when she got
back.
Everything was fine until
the large man, the one she stepped over thinking he was dead as she left the
cabin, knocked on the door.
As she recalled the events
of the night Sara knew that no matter how far or fast she ran she would never
escape the maniac in the cabin. After all…
… You can never run away
from yourself.
