Have you ever felt a dim, cold feeling creep over you? Enough hope to taunt you yet despair stalks closer to you with every step you take? That's what I felt when I recounted the weapons around the house.

The gun is gone. They put it somewhere else. I don't know where it is.

The katana is still in the living room.

I think I've done all I can.

I-I'm terrified. The big day is so close. Less than a week from now. I've been too busy to make update logs. I've been wondering who should have all these files I made.

I've made sure to readjust the wireless cameras to hidden nooks and crannies of the house, dark enough to hide them but enough so they see through the shadows.

The next log may be my last. I just... I needed someone to talk to. This computer... it's all I have.

My... mom always said computers just pull me away from people. Well, they're a lot safer, at least.

Safer than them.

...Pray for me.

We just got back from the graduation ceremony. I'm... telling them tonight, after dinner.

My timing... is either the best or the worst. Right after a celebration... dammit.

Was I hoping these festivities would be a buffer? Maybe. I feel like an asshole now.

Well, no time like the present.

Maybe I should have done this sooner. But there's nothing sooner than now.

I'm doing it.


I'll call up a group call, put the phone on mute. I... hope this isn't bad.

CAN YOU LISTEN TO YOURSELF RIGHT NOW?! I'M STILL ME, I'M STILL

SHUT IT! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANOTHER WORD OUT OF THAT GOD FORSAKEN MOUTH!

I'll get the gun.

Look, I'll leave the house, there's no need for th

Like I would let you walk away with things we worked for, things we spent blood, sweat, and tears for!

Those are BLESSINGS THE LORD GAVE US! THAT IS NOT SOMETHING A DEMON LIKE YOU SHOULD TAKE AWAY!

Can you hear yourselves right now? I own at least half of those. Gifts, part-time jobs I spent on those. Those are my things. And the gun? What happened to the love and respect we listen to at church? I... expected more from you people. I didn't expect you all to come to this.

It's not murder if THE THING HAS NO SOUL!

CAN YOU SEE WHAT KIND OF A DISGRACE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW? PUTTING SHAME TO THE FAMILY NAME?! We worked for that name and you soil it with THIS?!

I THOUGHT I WAS YOUR SON! CAN YOU HEAR YOURSELVES? ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING?! WHERE'S THAT LOVE YOU ALWYAS SAID YOU PROMISED? I DON'T SEE IT!

I thought I was raising a servant of the Lord! All I raised was a HELLSPAWN!

Mom, stop! L-LET GO!

Bring that thing here, honey. Let us do the Lord's work...

Years of raising you and loving you and you bite the hand that FEEDS YOU!

Dad! Stop! You won't get away with this! Do you honestly believe this is what Jesus wanted? Would do? Dad... Dad. Dad! DAD! DAA-90a0=-2as43qtq

They heard! --they suspected! --they knew! --they were making a mockery of my horror!-this I thought, and this I think. But anything was better than this agony! Anything was more tolerable than this derision! I could bear those hypocritical smiles no longer! I felt that I must scream or die! and now --again! --hark! louder! LOUDER! LOUDER! LOUDER!

"Villains!" I shrieked, "dissemble no more! I admit the deed! --[TEAR UP THE PLANKS]! here, here! --It is the beating of his hideous heart!

First of all I [DISMEMBERED THE CORPSE]. I cut off the head and the arms and the legs.

I then took up ?;?w3 planks from the flooring of the chamber, and deposited all between the scantlings. I then replaced the boards so cleverly, so cunningly, that no human eye --not even his --could have detected any thing wrong. There was nothing to wash out --no stain of any kind --no blood-spot whatever.


I had been too wary for that.

SO CUNNINGLY

Yes, he had been trying to comfort himself with these suppositions: but he had found all in vain.

His fears had been ever since growing upon him.
