"Revenge is the cream of the crop." Helen had told her.
She was right.
Revenge felt so good.
All the months that crazy woman had had her in her clutches she'd maintained her hopes of escape.
Waiting and scheming until Helen got lazy.
Today, Helen was in for a big surprise.
That crazy woman had just had time to whisper one name at the end.
Inside the large unfamiliar building she walked slowly through the hallways.
Of course no one stopped her, they did know her after all, but no one came running to welcome her back either.
That disappointed her a little bit.
First, she visited Lester and then stopped by to see Abby, Connor and Stephen. They were all happy to see her.
Afterwards, she proceeded to the office at the end of the hallway which had the name tag "Cutter" on the door and inside was littered with files and odd knick-knacks.
Nick hadn't arrived yet, so she waited.
His office really was a mess. Someone should wipe up the spilt paint on the floor and repair the broken chair.
She touched some of the fresh paint on the wall, which was still wet, and grimaced at its heavy odor.
An odd look flickered across her eyes as she whiped her red fingers on her trousers.
Then the flashbacks came: 'Someone who looked like herself, fashionable and all smiles, entering this office.
Screaming, rage, the sentence: 'You are not me!'
Lester in his office chair, trying to staunch the blood flowing from numerous wounds in his chest.
Abby and Connor, the kids, lying on the ground with their throats cut and Stephen in the gym with a big hole in his left eye.'
As she heard his footfalls she turned around.
"Hello Nick, I'm back." she whispered.
Seeing Claudia inside the bloody mess, Nick Cutter felt like weeping.
