Synopsis
A kidnapper observes a group of children. Finally he pursues a small girl as she heads downstairs, but she takes him completely off-guard by calling 9-1-1 and then unleashing hordes of mutantry at him, including hallucinations, energy waves, and telekinetic manipulation. As he comes to and catches his feet, he dials 9-1-1 as the girl's energy waves intensify and cascade into a black wraith that tears him apart. She scratches a tally mark on the wall with a chunk of the monster who has since dissipated.
