Terrifying Scene at the Store

What's up friends? I hope your weekend is going great so far. If you're into crimes and the like, I hope you'll take time to read. I am just going to put a warning here that this article mentions a lot of graphic things. Reader discretion is advised.

It was a normal Saturday morning for Rachel who worked as a manager at Lululemon, an athletic apparel store in Bethesta, US. At 8:00 AM, she casually headed to the shop, passing by a long line of people at the Apple Store, which was launching a new model of iPad at that time. These two stores were situated next to each other in this place.

She was puzzled when she walked into the shop's unlocked door which was so unusual to happen. The employees who worked the previous day must have forgotten to lock it, she thought. What made it even weirder was when she got inside and noticed that some racks of clothes were knocked over but not in a dreadful way where one would think someone ransacked the whole place. Despite that, the shop still felt eerie and it looked like a small robbery occurred as some cash registers were left open.

Scared that someone was still at the store, Rachel got out and managed to ask for help from a random guy in the line at Apple. The helpful dude walked inside the shop and went straight to the backside and was welcomed with a very big mess. Glass shards were all over the place. There were so many broken items, and at the top of that, there was tons of blood! Blood splatters were all over the wall and ceiling, some blood marks looked like hand swipes on the wall. It was a total nightmare. Along with the bloody floor, were dragging marks and two sets of footprints - one a lot bigger than the other.

The man, petrified enough, suddenly heard some whimpers. It was as if someone was making small sounds of pain and needed help. He opened one of the changing rooms and there, he saw a girl whose hands and feet were tied up, her body was full of cuts, and she was losing a lot of blood. She was also showing obvious signs of assault as her clothes were ripped off, showing her private parts.

At the extent of everything, he asked Rachel, who at that time was not seeing the scene, to call the police because someone was obviously dying out there. It has to be mentioned that before hearing the cries, he followed the trail of blood at the further backside of the store and saw a dead body in a profuse pool of blood. He was panicking and was about to tell Rachel when he heard the other girl moaning. And that was when he panicked more and realized that an urgent call for the cops should be made as someone was still alive and could still survive.

Rachel, upon knowing this, realized that the two people at the back were the employees assigned to work the previous day: Jayna and Brittany.

Thank you for taking some time to read, friends. I am trying to be true with what I mentioned that weekends, especially Sundays, would be for true crime stories. I hope you find the same stuff as fascinating as I do. This will be a two-parter as it's too long to be compressed into a single article. Thank you so much and keep safe! Ciao!
