A young boy is sleeping on his bed at night. He hears footsteps outside his door and peeks out of his eyes to see what is happening. His door swings open quietly to reveal a murderer carrying his parents corpses. After silently propping them on a chair, he writes something on the wall in the blood from the dead bodies. He then hides under the child's bed. The child is scared beyond belief. He can't read the writings in the wall in dark but he knows the man is under his bed. Like any child he pretends that he slept through the whole thing and hasn't awoken yet. As he lays still he hears the rasping breath from under the bed.

An hour passed and his eyes are adjusting more and more to the darkness. He tries to make out the words slowly. He gasps wen he finally makes out the sentence.

"I know you are awake."
