He went out onto his balcony and looked around and thought,
Tom went back into his kitchen and took out two sharp knives from his drawer, he put them into the back of his belt, he went to the lift and went down to the first floor, he went out of the fire exit and went round to the back of the hotels fire exit and locked it with his master key he also secured the back doors to the kitchen and the door that the staff used to go to their accommodation,
Tom sneaked around and locked all the fire exits, there was one door left to secure, the front door, Tom made his way to reception he could here loud music and a lot of laughter, he smiled and went to the front door, Tom put a chain around the hold bars on the doors and padlocked them, he heard a noise behind him and turned around, Suzi stood there, “Tom at last, where have you been love” she asked?
“Jacks gone” Tom replied, “What do you mean” she asked?
Tom went to his office and told her what had happened, he made a drink for both of them, Suzi started to cry and Tom put his arms around her, she looked at Tom and kissed him on the mouth, Tom responded with his tongue,
“Oh Tom I thought you went the other way” she said, “I do” he replied and twisted her neck sharply, there was a snapping noise and Tom let her fall to the floor.
He went to the reception and watched the CCTV view of the bar area, his staff were all having fun, eating and drinking and singing and laughing, Tom watched and lit a cigarette, he drank from a bottle he found in Jacks office,
Tom went out the back and went round the other way to the back kitchen, he went into the store cupboard and pulled out two large containers of cooking oil and some other stuff, he found two spray containers and filled them with the cooking oil, he also found a container of petrol and put that into another stray bottle, he tested the bottles and adjusted the spray to his liking,
He hooked the three bottles onto his trouser belt at the back,
Tom walked into the bar,
All the staff were dancing around and laughing.
“hello people, I am hear at last, got held up for a while, had to take Jack somewhere, so I have so much to talk to you about” Tom announced!
“We thought you weren’t coming boss” someone shouted,
“Get the man a beer” Toni shouted!
“Come on boss, let us know what’s going on” Manuel asked?
Tom stared at them all,
“What’s with the spray bottle” Greg asked?
“It’s for you mate, I want some doors oiled tomorrow” Tom exclaimed,
Greg started to laugh,
“Yes I do believe you all think it’s just a laugh here” Tom put in,
“Hey boss so what is your plans then” Candi asked?
“Yes come on, we want to know” James commented!
“Ok I want you all to sit down on the settees, i will tell you exactly what’s going to happen! Tom announced and lit a cigarette, he finished his bottle of beer and sat on the bar stool,
“Come on tom, you got us all here tonight for what” Jo asked?
Tom stared at them all and flicked his cigarette away,
“ok people I know exactly what’s been going on, your all taking the piss out of me and taking my money, my meat and god knows what else and there’s more” Tom put to them, Tom stood up,
Manuel stood up too, “what are you trying to say here” he said,
“You joke with me and I have a joke for you” Tom announced,
Tom started to spray everyone from the bottle in his hand, he took another bottle from his belt and carried on spraying,
Some of the girls started to laugh and didn’t realise what he was spraying on them, Tom continued to spray people and laughed, “Let’s party then we all go on holiday on me” Tom shouted”
Everyone shouted in agreement!
Tom kept spraying everyone,
“What the hell is this stuff” someone asked?
“Vodka with a twist” Tom replied and laughed,
“It’s all sticky Tom” someone shouted!
“You robbing scum bags, let’s light the night and play my game shall we” Tom shouted and lit Jack’s zippo lighter, he sprayed some more of the cooking oil over them, what kind of sick game is this Tom” someone asked?
“Ok it’s not a game, I just want you all to feel pain and yes I am sick, very sick you bastards” Tom announced!
The girls started to scream, James went to the fire escape and tried the door, the handle went down but the door would not open, “its locked” James shouted, Tom stood there with the lighted lighter, James moved towards Tom, Tom threw the lighter onto the floor and immediately there was a flash of flames,
Tom sprayed more of the bottles over them, they were all on fire and jumping around shouting hysterically!
Tom watched them burn and kept spraying them, the flames went everywhere as the staff bumped into each other, Toni came towards Tom but he kicked her backwards, into the flames, there was a lot of screaming and the smell wasn’t too good, Tom watched them all burn and fall to the ground, the flames were fierce and the whole bar was on fire, Tom went to his office and rolled a joint, he took out a bottle of Vodka and took a big swig, he smoked the joint and watched the fire spread into the reception area, Tom had disabled the fire alarms earlier on, none of the water sprinklers works as the fire alarm was not activated, Tom go up and went to the lift, he looked back into the lounge, he saw a black hand in the fire as if waving at him he went into the lift, The smoke was getting bad as the lift went up,
The lift shuddered and stopped, smoke was coming into the lift, he managed to force the doors open, the lift was between floors, there was a gap and he climbed through it, he was in his place, the smoke was following behind him, Tom went out onto his veranda where the hot tub was, he turned it on, the girl floated around, Tom could hear fire engine sirens in the distance, he went inside and came back out with a bottle of whiskey, he rolled a joint and got into the hot tub, the smoke was bellowing out of his open doors now.
Tom smoked the joint and messed with the dead girl in the pool, he laid back and took a few large gulps from the bottle and smiled,
“My name is Tom and I am twisted” he growled,
There was a few large bangs from within the hotel and the hot tub shook, Tom made another joint and watched the fire in his place, the glass smashed and went all over Tom, his face and arm dripped with blood, he looked at the blood and wiped it over him, he smiled,
The hot tub stopped bubbling and his flat exploded, Tom was covered in bricks and burning masonry, he pulled the dead girl to him and kissed her, there was a rumble and Tom dropped into the building,
Later on one of the fire brigade officers commented he heard something: one of the fire officers said, “Did you hear that”? “For you Jack” Tom shouted and disappeared.
