"Father! Father, no!!!" Jadon screams. But I hold him tightly. I can't let him run to his death. We are all probably going to die soon in the hands of that thing, but at least, a moment longer.
What am I hoping for?
"Father! Father!!" Jadon screams. It is all he can do. He is too weak to even break free from my hands. "Stop it!! Leave him alone!!" He screams harder and I can't help the tears as I watch him struggle in pain for being helpless.
"Let him go!!! STOP!! FATHER!"
I place a trembling hand over my mouth as I stare at Jonah Reinhart, a robust man, a bright man… I watch as his skin dries, and he shrinks and shrinks and shrinks… Till there is nothing left of him.
Nothing left but his clothes.
And now, what was once a bloody deformed creature is a naked man, "My precious," He stretches that same hand to Mila and I want to scream and tell her not to take it. But once again my voice has disappeared.
