The tunnel ended at a heavy steel door with a steel turning wheel. \u201cThis place seems to go on forever,\u201d Abby said, looking more than a little frustrated. \u201cWhere the hell is he hiding her?\u201d An open storeroom was situated off to one side. Inside, they found steel shelving units similar to those in the other storeroom. The shelves contained more bottled water, a few cans of tuna, and a box of energy bars. Again, not a huge cache. Maybe supplies for two or three days at the most\u2014the essentials to keep someone fed and watered.<\/p>\n

An animal waiting to be slaughtered for Thanksgiving. \u201cWe\u2019re getting close,\u201d Carolyn said. Outside the storeroom, Carolyn slid her gun out of its holster and checked the round in the chamber. \u201cWow!\u201d Abby said, staring at the gun in Carolyn\u2019s hand. \u201cDidn\u2019t see that coming.\u201d \u201cJust in case,\u201d Carolyn replied, re-holstering her weapon. She slowly turned the wheel on the heavy steel door. A blast of cold, stale air greeted them from the dimness beyond.<\/p>\n

Inside was a row of cubicles that looked like prison cells. All were in darkness except one. A flimsy cable with a naked light bulb hung from the ceiling of the end cubicle. Carolyn drew her gun again and aimed it at the opening of the lit cell. She edged forward, gun ready, Abby close behind her. Then the smell hit Carolyn. Blood, and a lot of it too, by the stench.<\/p>\n

She nodded at Abby, who nodded back. Carolyn gritted her teeth and then pivoted into the room, her gun up, her eyes wide. With its low ceiling, rough walls, and bare cement floor, the space looked like an underground chamber, a dungeon. A chair lay toppled in the middle. A slumped figure lay in a large pool of blood, their hands tied behind their back, their face obscured.<\/p>\n

Blood. A lake of blood on the ground. A body, face down. Dead or alive? She couldn\u2019t tell. Looking past the person on the ground, she saw a soft wedge of light glowing in the far corner of the chamber. A battery-powered camping lantern sat on the floor. Someone was crouching at the base of the lantern, their back turned to Carolyn and Abby.<\/p>\n

The person\u2019s head then rose a few inches, as if sensing someone was behind them.<\/p>\n
