Luke's POV
Mind racing, I chuckled silently. Reaching for the gun next to me, I stared at it.
Find her and kill her. Kill everyone that gets in your way.
The voices ordered.
I'll make sure...I'll make sure that happens.
I took another gulp from the whiskey bottle and wore a hoodie that covered most of my face.
With that, I got ready.
***************
I passed through the empty halls feeling a bit cloudy from the alcohol I drank a while ago.
Asking a student where Lindsay's class and locker was, not to mention also threatening to kill him, I made my way quickly without letting others see me.
As I get near to the classroom, I see a young boy trying to close the door. The hood from my hoodie slips off my head as I bring the gun up pointing towards the b**tard of a kid.
Pulling the trigger, the boy shuts the door with one last yank.
I bring the hood back up and walk past the door, meeting a pair of eyes that resembled mines through the small window of the door.
Lindsay
I headed to her locker and slip in a note, running from the scene as quickly as possible.
****************
No one can find me.
No one will.
Over my dead body.
Why didn't you kill her? The voice snapped.
"I'm sorry." I sobbed as I started packing my luggage.
I want you to kill her as quick as possible. And her mother once you eliminate her first.
"Okay." I agreed but for now, I need to flee from this town but find a place not so far away.
***FLASHBACK***
"Look Luke!" Amy smiled as she held a small baby in her arms. I had waited a long time outside as Amy gave birth to our child. All I hoped for was a baby boy.
That's what this world needs, more men to dominate the stupid existence of women. We are stronger and more reasonable. I'd give anything to have a baby boy.
I frowned at the sight of a baby girl reaching her little hand out.
"Is that a girl?" I frowned.
"Yes Luke. Her name is Lindsay." Amy grinned. "Aren't you happy?"
I shook my head in disbelief, "No! Not at all! What a disgrace and disappointment! A girl? I wanted a boy! Not a pathetic useless girl!"
Lindsay began to cry at the sound of my booming voice.
This can't be possible. I was so stupid of letting Amy choose the baby's gender to be a surprise. Maybe we could've gotten rid of the baby in time.
My life is ruined.

"Daddy!" Lindsay crawled towards me.
"I am not your daddy." I snapped.
"Luke! Don't say that!" Amy picked Lindsay up.
"Whatever." I rolled my eyes and continued my work.
"Hush-a-Bye

"Done with work yet?" Amy asked as she leaned against the wall.
"I think so." I smirked as I stood from my chair and walked to her.
"Luke, we need to talk." Amy said.
I ignored her and pressed my lips on hers. Never separating my lips from her, I carried her into our room and shut the door behind us.
