slowly fall down her face. All she could think about as she passed all the places that she had once been with her only son was that they would never see each other again and immediately the tears began to flow.
     
     
    They arrived at the hospital and walked to the morgue first. She wanted to look at her son’s face and know that this nightmare that she was facing was real and not just a dream she would one day wake from. Even though she wished it was, she knew in her heart that would never happen.
     
     
    They walked past the desk and right into the morgue. Heather sat at the desk and didn’t bother to stop them, she knew why they were there and that was a moment that she didn’t need to make any more difficult than it already would be. She could tell by the look on the woman’s face that she was Detective Farmouth’s wife and the mother of the deceased. She couldn’t imagine what she must be feeling so she would sit there and allow them the closure that they needed.
     
     
    Slowly Luke and his wife walked to the freezer currently holding their only son and opened the door. As the detective pulled the cold slab out his hands began to shake slightly. He knew what he was going to see. But that didn’t make this any easier for him.
     
     
    He would have to show his wife something she should never have had to see. He would have to watch her heart break and he would have to console her with nothing but promises that he didn’t know that he would be able to keep, because the person responsible was still out there somewhere. He would have to console her while trying to hold himself together.
     
     
    He pulled the sheet back from his dead son’s face and waited for his wife’s’ response. He didn’t get the response he thought he would receive. As he uncovered LJ’s face Lela stood frozen in place and when his face was fully uncovered she immediately noticed that he was not as he was when she last saw him. She thought back on the few days before when he was sitting at her house with his fiancé and their newborn twin girls. She thought back to the look of pride he held on his face and the warm smile that lit up his eyes while holding his children in his arms. She thought about the warmth that flowed through his face showing more than just emotions but the life that was flowing through his veins, the life that was no longer present as she looked down at her son.
     
     
    Unconsciously she touched his face as she always did when she saw him. And it was then that she noticed the bullet wound in his head. She touched that wound, carefully tracing around it with her index finger. Then all in one motion she pulled the cover back to fully see him. She wanted to see what these animals had done to her baby boy, her only son, the son that she had fought so long and hard for. The son that she prayed and cried for. Her only son.
     
     
    She looked down at the wound in his chest where she used to lay her head as they hugged closely. She looked at the wounds in his side and his stomach and she ached for him. All at once she felt the pain that her son must have felt as these monsters ripped him from her life. She felt the pain as if it were her body that they shot so violently. Without even realizing it she was falling. She felt Luke’s arms around her but she didn’t know how she got there. She

    Luke took one more look at his son before following his wife. He touched his shoulder while saying aloud, “Don’t worry my son. Those that are responsible for this will pay. I can promise you that they will pay.”
     
     
    And with those words said he covered LJ up and pushed his body back into freezer. He rushed to catch up with Lela and found her sitting on the bench by the elevator. She said nothing as she stood up as he approached. He placed his arm around her and pushed the elevator button that would take them to the ICU floor, where she
