Chapter 15

The house and grounds around us are dark. there is only a single point of light that remains visible from the house. The flickering of a candle emanating from the window nearest the front door on the left. The sunset was hours ago. Adam and I continue waiting for the shadows and night to deepen. And for the darkness to lure the residents of the house into slumber before we make our move.

We've spent the day hiding in the next-door house's upper bedroom with a view over the front yard of our target. During the day we counted six different men going about their lives as if they don't have a care in the world. That's going to change tonight. Adam and I haven't spoken much throughout the day but what little we did was covering our plan. The too long didn't read if it is, we sneak in and get the girls and sneak out. Neither of us has vocalized our thoughts over the matter of the men. Adam's eyes tell me he is in full agreement over what we're to do regardless. He has no intention of leaving enemies alive behind us. My hands are already stained with the blood of others multiple times over, I'm in agreement. No words are needed and neither of us wants to say aloud our murderous thoughts.

Finally when all the lights from the house die out leaving just the flickering near the front door. Adam and I silently make our move. The hunting knife strapped on my belt. The .22 rifle in my hands I move through the house we've hidden in and out the back door. Cutting across the yard to the corner climbing into the back yard. Staying well away from the front yard and the window with the flickering light. We creep up to the house and crouch under the windows on either side of the back door. We just sit listening for any sounds coming from inside. Our first order of business is recon. We stalk from window to window trying to get a look inside. Hoping we can manage to sneak the girls out through a window and not bother going inside. No such luck so far. The curtains are drawn shut on the ground floor windows and block our view in many of the rooms. The darkness enshrouds the rooms without curtains. Adam tests the back door and finds it locked. Thinking of checking all the ground floor windows again. This time looking for one that's unlocked that we can use as a point of entry.

An idea strikes, I gesture at Adam getting his attention indicating to follow me. Hurrying over to the garage I twist the handle, finding it unlocked I push it in quickly rushing through the door only a moment later. Adam hurries in behind me.

"Ladder," I say the one word quickly after I close the door behind us.

Turning around I can see nothing, it's pitch black in the garage. Clicking on my flashlight using my hand to cover the light and only let slivers through I scan the place.
