It was a fine sunny day when I made my escape, (I had been planning it for a while) I just got under the perimeter fence as the siren went off so I started to run like hell through the field.
By now I was been chased by men with dogs, I ended up in a stream so decided to swim for it because the dog’s wouldn’t be able to pick my scent up. I was in the water for about five minutes and could still hear the dogs barking in the distance, I sat on the bank for a few minutes to get my breath back and to get my bearings. After crossing another field I found a road and started to walk, I eventually came to a village, there was some men shouting they seemed drunk or something then I was nearly hit by a moped, the driver stopped to see if I was ok so I hit him, just knocked him out I think, I laid him under some trees and borrowed his moped to get out of the village.
It wasn’t long before I could hear a police siren, not knowing if it was after me or not I decided to hide myself and the moped in a wooded area, the siren was getting louder and louder then it went past me “ phew” I was out of danger.
I got back on the moped and was riding for a good few hours when I came to a small town, the moped stalled at some traffic lights I got off and left it outside a shop.
I found a phone box and decided to phone my home number, the phone was ringing someone picked it up at the other end so I hung up, as I was coming out of the phone box an ice cream van playing a tune startled me then a bunch of teenagers ran into me.
I walked for what seemed ages, by this time it was getting dark and I was tired and hungry. I got to a house that was easy to get into it was in darkness, I opened the gate walked up the path and tried the front door, it was locked, I went round to the back door after falling over the dustbin (“oh shit,” I thought.) I found a brick to smash the glass within the door and unlocked the door from the inside and walked in, I walked over to the cupboard and got some food, got some milk out of the fridge, sat down and started to eat it, a cat startled me by jumping on my knee I went into the living room and sat down as the clock was striking three am and lit a cigarette the cat came and sat on my knee and went to sleep. I must have dosed off as well because the next thing I heard was a car coming up the drive (so I decided it was time for me to make a move so I hid behind a chair hoping he wouldn’t see me). A man got out humming a tune unlocked the front door, put his keys on the table in the hall and went upstairs. I heard him moving about then he ran some water, I slowly and quietly went upstairs and into the bathroom where the man was having a bath as he turned round to see me I made a grab for him, in the struggle he pulled me in the bath with him after a short struggle I managed to drown him. After getting dry and putting some more clothes on, I went back downstairs telling myself well done he deserved it lit another cigarette paused, picked the phone up and dialled 999 the phone rang three times then I hung up and went back upstairs to the bedroom I laid on the bed thinking of how I was sent to prison for a murder I didn’t’ do, or how I was transferred to an open prison and then to a physiatric hospital (because I tried to kill myself as I was so depressed because no one beloved I was innocent) where I made my escape from. I must have gone back to sleep again because the next thing I heard was the telephone ringing so I let it ring it stopped, rang again and stopped then after about five minutes the door bell rang, then the door open and a man’s voice shouted “come on Jack it’s time to go” then I heard movement, downstairs so I quickly and quietly straightened the bed covers and hid under the bed. It wasn’t long before he came running up stairs shouting “ Jack, Jack he came into the bedroom, then he must have gone into the bathroom as I heard him say “oh my god” he went back down stairs and phoned the police, as I heard him say a man has been found dead in the bath at number 16 Chestnut Drive, then he gave his name and address and put the phone down and went outside to wait for them coming I crept downstairs to see where he was, lucky for me he was outside so I went out the same way as I came in.
Chapter two
It wasn’t long before the police arrived at 16 Chestnut Drive. They were met by a tall well built man with black curly hair, wearing a chequered shirt and jeans, “I am P C Jackson and this is inspector Taylor, you must be Mr Grey” . By this time they were standing outside the front door, they went into the living room which was oblong in shape, with a chair and a studio couch opposite the window, a coffee table and a leather chair in the middle of the room and a sideboard and bookcase at the back of the room with a door leading into the kitchen.
“Now Mr Grey” said the Inspector, can you show us where the body is, so Mr Grey took the police upstairs to the bathroom “In there” he said, “Aren't you coming in asked the inspector.” “no.” said Mr Grey “I don’t like seeing dead people” so the inspector and the PC went into the bathroom. the inspector came back out leaving the PC taking notes. The inspector and Mr Grey went back downstairs and into the living room.
“Now” said the inspector can you tell me exactly what happened. Mr Grey told the inspector about how it was his turn to take Mr Kay to work, It was about half past four when I rang him up to see if he was going in to work. But got no answer so I hung up and tried again a few minutes later still no answer so I came round to see if he was home. I rang the door bell and found that the door was not locked so I looked around downstairs then went upstairs as he sometimes has a sleep before work, I looked in his bedroom but he wasn’t there, then went into the bathroom and found him in laid in the bath dead so I went back downstairs and rang you lot up.
While I was waiting for you to come I went into the kitchen and saw the mess.
Then I woke up dripping with sweat. That was one hell of a nightmare.
