Blake’s knuckles were turning a ghastly white as he grasped the steering wheel, speeding towards the Tasser's house.

He pulled into the driveway, and hopped out of the car. Coming through the front door, he came across Bruce sipping his coffee.

"Is Elise here?" Blake's words tumbled out of his mouth.

"Yes....I thought she was talking to you in her room."

"Thanks.....do you mind if....?"

With a nod from Bruce, Blake ran up the stairs, two at a time to Elise's room. He threw open the door.

No one was there.
