  A noise frightened him and he chickened out running back out the back door.

  The picture rewound and he was back at the patio door slipping inside. He ignored the sound hurrying to the back of the house.

  The woman screamed as the front door opened and her husband came running in, he grabbed a knife from the counter and ran to the back of the house.

  Police and Paramedics filled the house as the man sat on the stairs sobbing looking at the blood all over his hands. Ari watched as two stretchers were carried from the house. The chubby young mans hand fell out of the white sheets.

  "So now it's your turn. "

  Ari didn’t even stay to see where she went. She walked from the room quickly as the air began to change throughout the building. Ari ran as quickly as she could and burst through the front door. She was out onto the street before the new priest was even in his bed.

  Lucas laughed, "I heard you rip that door off the hinges from out here. "

  She smiled, 'We still have two stops. "

  He put his arm around her, "Fine but then we go home. " He kissed he side of her head and they walked down the road enjoying the quiet of the neighborhood.
