Erik took his butcher knife and held it up. "I guess it's time for me to use you. Isn't it," Erik said. Jack looked at Erik and smiled like a demon. Erik took a swing at Jack and Jack jumped away. Erik and Jack could hear the sirences getting closer. Jack ran as fast as he could to a window and jumped out. Jack got away. The police got to Erik's house and came in. Erik ran into the police officer's arms and cried. Erik explained what happens and he got to stay at his house with his grandma. The police had confirmed that his mom was killed by getting slit in the throat. For the next two years Erik was worried. He was afraid to do anything.
