[ IP ] Wrong Turn

`` Okay, Honey. Listen, it's getting to be a little stormy right now, so I'll see you in about thirty minutes. You want to say goodbye to Annie?'' I faced the phone to the backseat, where my daughter Anissa shouted at the top of her lungs, `` Goodbye Mommy!'' I put the phone back up to my ear. `` Bye, Hon. Yes, we got the milk. No. We did n't get carried away, Dorothy!'' I slightly swerved on the dark, lonely, icy road. `` Bye. It's getting real icy here. Love you.'' I hung up. I slowed down on the road as I turned, causing Annie to say, `` Uh-oh,'' 
 
 `` What is it?'' I asked, staring down the road. 
 
 `` They're coming, coming fast. Faster coming, coming there.'' 
 
 `` Okay... Look, sweetums, Daddy's driving on a very slick road right now, and snow is falling heavily, blocking Daddy's vi- Oh Jesus!'' I swerved to avoid a man standing in the road, wearing only black slacks and a black sweater, with pale complexion. Suddenly, I lost control over the steering wheel, and I careened off of the road via poorly built guardrail. I thought Annie would be screaming her head off, but she was extremely calm. Even when we rolled down a snow-drift a couple times, knocking my head into the windshield. 
 
 I woke up God-knows-when with snowflakes hitting my nose. I slowly pulled my head from the glass, and crawled to the back, to comfort Annie. But when I got there, there was only a plastic bottle and a puddle of milk. I called her name out, and saw her lying in the snow face-down. Even though it hurt like hell, I kicked open the door and ran to her body. I hugged her close to my body, but she wriggled her way out. 
 
 `` Daddy, I'm fine,'' she creepily grinned. `` I'm at home.'' Then loud thumps filled the area. I squinted down to look at the forest below, but Annie tugged at my sleeve and pointed at the area where the flickering lights were shining at, deep into the blizzard. I thought I saw lights from cars at first, but then I remembered that the road goes around the mountain into the hills. Then shapes started to be more present, and I could make out the likenesses of two giant humans. I tried to get Annie to safety, but she repeated the cryptic saying in the most nonchalant way possible. She ran out into the snow, into the large, flat hands of the two giants. They started to walk away with Annie enveloped in a shadowy blanket. Then one of them stared me down and I fell unconscious. 
 
 I woke up with a light in my face. I could slightly make out a stetson. Rangers. 
 
 `` Sir! I said, full of a mouth of broken teeth. `` Two giants- `` 
 
 `` Are you Rick Leonardson?'' the Ranger interrupted. 
 
 `` Y-yes. Why- `` 
 
 `` Are you married to Dorothy Stainethrope Leonardson?'' 
 
 I nodded. The Ranger said, `` It checks out.'' right into his walkie-talkie. He handcuffed my numb arms. 
 
 `` What the hell?'' I shouted. `` Why are you arresting me? Two giants kidnapped my daughter!'' 
 
 `` Other way around, sir.'' 
 
 `` How?'' 
 
 `` Six years ago, your wife was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. She had them removed, but she wanted children in her house with you.'' 
 
 Suddenly it all came back to me. I thought we went to an orphanage to adopt Annie, but it was a friend's house. I started to scratch down my forehead in frustration. 
 
 `` I admit to the crime, sir.'' I said as I allowed him to take me to the Ranger car. Inside was Dorothy, also handcuffed. I looked at the back, where a woman was talking to a reporter and another Ranger, and a man was comforting a little girl in a pink snowsuit. The pink snowsuit I bought her when she was five.
