Littlefield - Part 6
by EJ Leonard
C, Jared and I are in a cop van.
And we’re on our way to your house to pick you and your parents up to bring to the station to be safe.
There seems to be a lot more of them on their way
I haven’t seen any, and Wayne told me where Sarah is
How the hell does he know where she is??
He said he saw men take her away in a black van, and saw the same van the next day and followed them to this place
We can talk to my Dad about that when we get to the station
No. My mom already contacted the cops after what Wayne said.
So then let them handle it.
Wayne said the cops aren’t listening or doing anything about it.
Why would they do that?
Come on Helena, something is up
You already admitted that they fucking lied that a murderer was out there...
and it was something else entirely. I’m going to get her
WHAT!?
Wayne gave me the cross streets.
Since my parents are doing what the cops said and waiting to hear from them...
I’m going there myself
On your bike??
Yes.
YOU CAN’T GO OUTSIDE.
WHAT IF SHE’S HURT!?
I haven’t seen any of these thing you’re talking about, so…
There apparently have been a lot of them spotted coming up from the south.
They are about to declare a state emergency
What are they even??
I told you, they’re people who are sick.
They don’t know what they’re doing, and they’re dangerous.
I heard one of the cops saying that one of them killed the owner of Rand’s Pharmacy.
He was going to put the trash out back, and one just came out and tore the vein right out of his neck
Mr. Pinkola?
YES! SO STAY INSIDE
It’s too late.
What do you mean it’s too late??
I already left. I’m halfway there. Just paused in front of a park
Goddamn it! Do your parents know??
No. If you’re so concerned go get them
Just tell us where you are, and we’re coming to get you.
I do that, and you’ll take me straight to the police station instead
YOU SHOULD LET THE POLICE HANDLE IT
You want me, I’ll be going to a place called The Barn. It’s off of 95 and Whitvale Pike.
The barn??
Yes. It’s apparently some huge building behind a gate...
and that’s where she and others are
Jared’s psychic friend said something about a barn
You talked to Jared’s psychic friend!?!
Well, he told me about talking to her. I don’t usually believe in that bullshit, but…
What else did she say???
Just something about men, and a place called St. Rhiannon
Corinne, please stay where you are
No! You just confirmed I’m on the right track
She could already be dead for all you know
DON’T SAY THAT. ARE YOU MEETING ME THERE OR NOT
I don’t think the cop driving the van will go
Tell her I’m already there.
Did it work??
When I told her where it was she just got weird and said that we need to pick up your parents first...
that she’d dispatch someone else in case
Did she???
She mumbled “another rogue one, code yellow, near lock in” into the walkie.
I don’t know what that means
It means they don’t want to help me. I told you, something is going on with the cops!
Oh My God…
What??
One of those things…I see one…it’s in the distance
Get away from it
Wait…he looks familiar
Oh my God, Helena, it’s Mr. Jameson. He’s just wandering.
He hasn’t seen me yet.
GET OUT OF THERE NOW.
He’s just kind of limping around. I’m going to see if he’s okay. Maybe he was attacked
DON’T
CORINNE?
CORINNE WHERE ARE YOU???
Mr. Jameson started running after me...
so I cut through the back of the park, to reach the reservoir.
There were about 50 more of them. A bunch of them were feeding on some animal
Where are you now??
I’m hiding in the public restrooms. Please have them come get me
WHICH PARK?
Torrence
We just pulled into your driveway.
The cops have been having problems trying to get your parents to come out...
because we said you were missing.
I’m going to go get them now
I can hear them banging, trying to get in. HURRY!
