You had just jolted up out of your sleep. You just had a nightmare and woke up... Or maybe you woke up from the thudding downstairs. You, being nosy, decided to quietly head downstairs. You hid behind a wall and listened

A soft thud, followed by dragging across the floor then... What sounded like a door shut and a latch closing... And your father's heavy breathing.

You turned and peeked into the room, only to see your father splattered in blood and holding a bloody butchers knife..
