CHAPTER 3 — Luca Harding

Dunn, Georgia

Boricio’s Compound

March 2012

FIVE MONTHS AFTER THE EVENT…

In his dream, Luca was a child again.

He was back home, it was the middle of the night, and he was pushing the door to his parent’s bedroom open, peeking into the darkness. They were still sleeping. He crept into the room, then stumbled on something in the middle of the floor.

He expected to hear his mom or dad yell, “Luca!” since that’s what always happened when he woke them up by being loud. Nothing but silence greeted him, however.

Just as Luca regained his balance, he tripped on something else, sending his body into an awkward ballet. He twisted toward the foot of the bed, and smashed his side hard against the wood frame.

Luca heard the loud thrump-bdddd-rumps as whatever he kicked — his dad was always leaving his shoes in the middle of the room — rolled across the floor before coming to a stop.

Luca cried out, holding his side from the bed’s assault, but fortunately, they had slept through his whine.

Luca climbed onto the bed, then crept up toward the front, squeezing his body in between his mother and father.

As he nudged his way toward the top, he noticed that he was lying in something cold and sticky.

“Mom . . . Dad . . .?” Luca swallowed.

“Mom . . . Dad . . .?” His right hand found his mom’s stomach, then inched up and along her side, over her shoulders and up to her neck, until Luca was screaming at the jagged meat zigzagging across the sawed off flesh.

Luca leapt from the bed, landed hard onto the floor, then rose from the wood and raced toward the wall. He flipped on the light then turned back toward the bed, screaming louder as he saw the part of his dad he’d kicked into the corner, and the part of his mom whose face was frozen, staring at him from the floor between the wall and the bed.

The lights flickered, then went daylight bright.

He was in the middle of a big city. Not Las Orillas. It had to be New York since Luca was looking at the same buildings from his vacation two summers before. Except now he was alone, in the middle of a city, surrounded by towering mountains of bent yellow steel, all of them flowing from the top with fountains of blood.
