Chapter 11

"Man, these lights suck. Can't see worth a damn," Derek muttered as he continued to fingerprint the door to the "terror chamber" as he liked to think of it. His mind couldn't conjure any other way to think of it. He had seen with his own eyes Doni's terror in just the simple task of Logan leaving the cabin. He couldn't imagine the horror she dealt with inside that room. He had no idea how she was even functioning. Having no memory probably saved her from a deep breakdown.

"Just keep at it. Nothing's going to pop up anyway. I just have this nasty feeling about it. There's nothing worth a damn inside this room for evidence. How in the hell are we going to figure out who took her if they left nothing behind?" Logan muttered with desperation as he ran a tired hand through his hair.

That's all he had been doing this evening. If he wasn't running a hand through his hair, it was running down his face. His agitation and rage for the treatment that Doni suffered would not simmer down. No matter how hard he tried to picture her sweet smiling face, safe at home, he saw a damaged, broken Doni chained to the wall. He couldn't help it.

Derek had offered to process the room with Logan declining. He needed to stop picturing her chained to the wall whenever he glanced at the chains. He couldn't do that if he wasn't staring at it. He couldn't help but stare. He figured the longer he stared, the horrible picture he conjured in his mind would dissipate. Because the room remained empty. Doni was safe at home. But the longer he stared, the more the picture morphed from a disturbing fragment to a grotesque horror.

"It's been a week. Whoever it was cleaned up the moment he knew he lost her. The best thing for us now is…" Derek stood up from hunching down near the floor, making no mistake to forget one inch of the door. "She needs to remember."

Logan came closer to Derek, the light enhancing his menacing glare. "I don't want her to remember. Not this. She can remember anything…but this." His hand made another trail down his face. "Her nightmares…I don't even want to hear them tonight. Shit, I can see myself having them now."

"Let's see if Bolt found anything outside. Are you done in there?" Derek asked, putting his supplies back into his kit.

"Yeah, let's get some air. This place is really starting to mess with me." Logan didn't wait for a response as he made his way out of the dark tunnel and into the fresh night air.

He spotted Bolt near his four-wheeler, making quick long strides towards him as he tried to flee from the weight that sat heavily on his shoulders. "Find anything, Bolt? Any little thing?"

Bolt looked up from his phone as Logan towered over him. He backed up a step from the intimidating stance. "Uh…no, Sheriff. I didn't find anything.
