      The sun slowly peaked up over the morning horizon.  Rick nodded off for just a few brief moments, but, hardly slept well throughout the long night.  He had no motivation to do anything or go anywhere.

     The telephone rang a few times.  But, he could not bring himself to answer it.  Hours seemed to pass by.  Suddenly, there was a gentle knock at the door.  Rick just sat quietly, hoping that they would go away.

     Soon, a key could be heard turning in the lock.  The door slowly creaked open.  Rick could see three figures in the shadow, slowly walking towards him.  He shuttered in his seat, wondering who it could be.

     As a hand reached out and slowly grasped his shoulder, he leaped up with horrific fright.
