Madd's mind was in complete shambles at the moment. He couldn't get the image of that thing in his mom's chair out of his head. It was very disturbing to him, whom never thought he would ever see anything like that in his life.
'I must be really tired. I just need to sleep.'
Madd tried to convince himself that everything he saw wasn't real and it was only because he stayed up all night looking at his mom.
*ssssssscccccccrrrrrrraaaaaaattttttccccchhhhh*
Madd once again heard the noise but this time it was the loudest and longest he has ever heard it.
*bump bump*
*bump bump*
*bump bump*
Madd heard his heart beat clearly in his ears. He started sweating a lot and his breathing becomes erratic. 'That sounded like it was right above me.' Madd thought to himself.
Madd couldn't decide what to do next. If he pretended to sleep it might distract him from his surroundings but it could end very bad if that happened. On the contrary he can look up to see what made that scratching noise. He finally made up his mind and decided that he would look up.
When he looked at the ceiling he didn't see anything other than what appeared to be a very big scratch mark that wasn't there before.
'So something really was in here.'
Madd was starting to sweat once again and he looked at the scratch mark one more time and he noticed that it goes from his door to his closet.
'Why did it have to go to the one place I didn't ever want to go to.'
Madd almost had no choice but to get out of bed and go to the closet. He stood in front of the door and he brought his shaky hands toward the knob for the second time today after years. 'Ok dude just pull it open really quick and get ready to...'
*BANG*
Just before Madd opened the door he heard a very loud noise coming from the den. He quickly went to see what it was to make sure that his mom was ok. But when he looked, he didn't see anything different only that his mom was missing once again.
'Where does she keep going? It's not like this house is big or anything. Wait. When did mom move around this much?'
Madd then looked back at his closet door just to make sure everything was ok. But as soon as he turned around he heard the noise of someone walking through all his father's beer bottles.
'Oh no. This is the worst time for him to be awake right now.'
Madd quickly looked back to the den but he saw his father still sleeping on the couch.
'If it wasn't him then who made all that noise?'
Of course he thought about the idea that it was his mother but it didn't explain how she got there so fast without him seeing. He noticed what appeared to be a very dark liquid that was flowing onto the ground coming from where his father was sitting.
'Did he really throw up in his sleep again?'
Madd knew that this was a common occurrence with his father and if someone didn't clean it up by the time his father was awake no one was going to be happy.
So Madd got back his courage and decided that since his mom wasn't around right now that he would do it because it's not like he hasn't before. Madd opened his door and is greeted with the strong smell of metal. 'I never knew that throw up could smell like this?'
Madd approached his father but he made sure to check the corner once again before he goes any further. When he noticed that everything was normal he continued towards his father. Madd wanted to see how much his dad threw up so he could get all the things to clean it. But when he walked past the corner the smell of metal got two times stronger. 'There is no way that this is the smell of throw up!'
Madd started to remember where he has smelt this smell before. He always smelt it whenever his father beat him.
'Oh my god! It's blood!!!'
Madd started to panic because he didn't know what to do. He went back to look at his father. What he saw, he will never forget that scene for a very long time.
His father had a trail of blood flowing onto the ground that was dripping from the tips of his fingers and spilled onto the couch. He looked up at his father's face and saw that his fathers eyes were now gone and replaced by dark red holes with blood pouring out of them. His cheeks were torn open on both sides with flesh like strings keeping the jaw barely in place revealing his teeth that should otherwise be hidden. It looked like a lion had torn his cheeks off but only targeting the cheeks. His nose was also missing and instead was replaced by a con-caved mound of flesh, bone, and blood. When Madd looked closer his dad's teeth looked like they had been forcefully pulled out in random intervals with some places missing only one tooth and another missing three. The strange thing about this was that other than the missing teeth, the inside of the mouth was perfectly fine. These wounds just made no sense and that made it look even more gruesome.
*blurg*
Madd almost threw up onto his father's bloodied body. His breathing became stagnant and his vision started to become blurry.
'WHERE IS MOM!?!?!'
Of course he didn't really care what happened to his father because Madd had always wanted him to die but unfortunately it couldn't be by his own hands. He only threw up because of the disgusting sight he saw. His only worry right now was to make sure that his mom was safe. He rushed to the corner where his mom usually sat. But just before he got there his vision started to fade away until he only saw darkness.
