Footsteps.... That was all he could hear while crouching between a wall and a couch in the total darkness. His hands were covering his mouth, tightly, silencing his sobs. Tear streams were falling down his cheeks as he trembled in fear.

"Oh- Boy... Don't hide from me. You know you can't get out right? Come out now" He heard the voice saying. The footsteps were getting closer as he curled in to a small ball as much as he could before the couch dragged away with a loud screeching.

"There you are!" The person said, before dragging the boy and lifting him up by his collar. The eighteen years old boy screamed loud as he could before biting the other's hand and running.

"Ow!" The person screamed in pain as he watched the boy running off before laughing like a lunatic. "You can't escape, I already told you!" He yelled as he too started running.

The boy ran out of the old house with all his might, only to end up in a corn-field that had no trace of a human. He didn't care. He just wanted to save his life. He continued running, not bothering to look behind. His breath hitched as he stumbled his foot on a rock and fell down. His knees started bleeding. He attempted to get up. He cried in pain as a sudden shot of pain ran through his right leg with the impact of a metal rod hitting.

A maniac laugh was heard. "I told you. You can't escape". The person said before striking the boy's other leg as well. The boy screamed in pain as he tried to get up again. The lunatic grabbed the boy with his arm as he grabbed a knife out of his pocket. "A little punishment for trying to escape" Leaning towards the boy's ear he whispered.

"No! Please no! I beg you! Let me go!" The boy pleaded, crying. His eyes widened as he felt a sharp pain on his abdomen. He looked below only to see a knife piercing into his stomach. He squealed in pain as the killer pulled out the knife and stabbed him again and again into the same wound. The boy coughed out blood as he fell onto the ground, barely breathing. The killer giggled at the scene in front of him, before crouching down and leaning towards the innocent boy.

"If you listened to me, you might've got the easy way out" He spat, before slitting the throat of the innocent boy. Blood flowing out of his mouth, the boy took his last breath.

The killer sighed in relief, before dragging the body towards his garage where a car was parked. He laid down a polythene inside the trunk before putting the body inside. He drove the car into a dark alley near the city, dumped the body there - making the police to find the body easily - and left.

A/N: Prologue is out! Tell me what do you think. I already am halfway through the story and I hope all the things would match up. (∩_∩). I don't really know how to perfectly write a murder mystery but yeah. I hope you'll enjoy. ♡ This book is inspired by 'Twisted Ways' written by hyunspic. Go check out their works too if you haven't. If you have read that book, I assure you that the plot isn't the same so you can enjoy this without getting spoiled. Thank you.
