“Oh Shit! There’s so much blood!”
Sara Doe gasped at the sight of the mangled, bloody bodies lying on the floor. Thick, rich crimson had spattered across the modest kitchen in odd shapes and designs. They mimicked the wet finger paintings of a child.
“Nell!” She rushed to her foster mother’s side, gagging at the putrid smell emitting from her open wounds. The stench caused Sara to shiver. Queasiness, forced her to swallow hard. “Dear God!”
Thick clots of blood caked Nell’s thin blond hair and pooled around her head. It ran from a face frozen in fright with pupils staring, absence of sight. Sara made herself look at the gaping hole seeping blood from her foster mother’s carcass void of organs.
Still hopeful, she reached out with a shaky hand to touch Nell’s body . She brought it away fast from the lifeless flesh, that gave her goose bumps and an unwanted chill down her spine. “Jesus!”
She knew by touching their lifeless bodies and seeing their blind stares , that the Elton's were already dead. Sara got to her feet, frighten.“What am I going to do now?”
