The Alibi

“The alibi I concocted for your brother includes you alive, but that could change. If you don’t play along, I’ll put a round in that big mouth of yours. It’s not my will to blow you away, but I will improvise if I have to. I’m good at that. It’s my estimation that the police have heard the gunshot and they will be here in about five to ten minutes. We have to act fast and get our alibi straight before they come through that door. Take a seat,” Wrath said.

Wrath took the gun out of Jamie’s throat. He grabbed Ted’s blood soaked shirt, and threw him off the chair. Wrath waved the gun over to the chair, signaling Jamie to sit. Her trembling body slowly responded to Wrath’s demand. Wrath picked up the second chair and faced it toward Jamie. He took a seat to stare at his reflection showing in the whites of her eyes.

“The story goes as follows. Ted firebombed the ambulance you two were riding in. You two miraculously escaped with your lives, only to be kidnapped by gunpoint. He proceeds to take you and Andy over to the cabin, where he pumps you both with drugs. Ted plans to sell you both into the sex trade. Before he goes through with his plan, Andy takes his gun and shoots him,” Wrath explained. 

“Andy, if you’re in there, please come out! You don’t need this demon to do your dirty work. I’m sorry I told you that you were helpless. You’re not. You and I can deal with this together. Cast the demon out, he needs to go back to hell where he belongs!” Jamie pleadingly expressed as she looked into the beast’s eyes.
