They had been so careful. Overly cautious even. They had to be, though. If Stephen didn't know what it was or how to handle it, Christine didn't want to take any chances. Especially with the girls waiting for them at the apartment. She'd had a talk with Emily about staying at the apartment and keeping an eye on America. Christine had been a bit stern with her, using her own disappointed parent voice, but tried to be understanding, too.
It wasn't her fault but Christine fully agreed with Stephen that she should have sought him out first.
They'd managed to tend to Matt as much as they could with Claire's help and left knowing medical help was just a few minutes out. Questions would be asked and hopefully, Angie Smith and her group would have answers at some point. Neither she nor Stephen had them, though.
There was no noise, not a hint of sound outside of their breathing, as they moved through the dark hallway. Holding tightly to Stephen's hand, they'd come to a quick stop. They were mere feet from the apartment door when the floor groaned from behind them. The thudding was heavy, echoing, and the walls of the hallway shook as the creature stalked behind them.
Every step felt like an eternity as they tried to move as quietly as they could but it wasn't enough. Of course, it wasn't.
Just as they were nearing the door, the creature let out a blood-curdling cry. It happened so fast - too fast - and Christine was slumped against Stephen. Her entire body ached, burning from head to toe, with her hand producing a wet splotch of red when she touched her side.
