The lighthouse wasn't too much further now. Debbie could see it shining like a beacon in the night. At one point in time it'd been a part of a much larger plan that quickly fell apart upon contact with the enemy. Erica had proven herself to be a different kind of animal and was still in hot pursuit of her prey.
The older woman looked back just in time to see the top of her head dip beneath the waves and that only frightened her all the more. She couldn't see the monster and that meant she could pop up out of nowhere at any time.The water wasn't safe and it may very well become her grave as well as Derek's.
"Keep pushing." She shouted to her son. He did just that and continued to press on despite his injures. His wounds burned and the saltwater was only aggravating his cuts. Debbie hated pushing her baby so hard but this was a do or die situation that they found themselves in. She had no choice but to push.
Her efforts were soon rewarded when they reached the rocky shore that the lighthouse sat on. There was still no sign of Erica and that put the older woman more on edge. Where was she? She was fairly confident that she hadn't drowned, so why was she taking her sweet old time attacking them.
"Give me your hand." Derek called out. Debbie took it and he struggled to pull her up onto the rocks. She took a second to take in just how hurt her baby boy truly was. He was going to need a doctor otherwise he may not recover properly. If only she had the advanced medical training of a doctor instead of a nurse.
"Come on! I'm not going to leave you here!" Debbie grunted as she helped her son to his feet. They stumbled around the lighthouse until stopping at the entrance. She tried to pull the door open but found it to be locked. "What the hell!"
She gently leaned her son against the structure and began banging on the door like a madwoman. She knew that someone was inside because the lights were all on.
"Hey! Open up! We need help!" She cried. The last thing she needed was another setback with Erica on the loose. "Come on! Open up, damn it! My baby needs help and there's a killer out here! Have a heart... please!"
