Doomed To Burn: Chapter 10 (Beth's Interlude Part 2)
There was something Beth didn't tell Aaron. It was that the speech about the stones was a complete lie. Well, except for the part about Derek. She really did want to kill him. But never got the opportunity. Beth wanted to kill Aaron too, but he was getting "too clever" so she made up the stones and the 8-minute warning, even though it was scientifically accurate. She just wanted him gone. Also, the cabin wasn't really hers either. She had a knack for making convincing lies.
After Aaron ran off, she wanted to leave too.
So she went inside the cabin, went to the closet and grabbed the can of gasoline she used for the furnace. She carefully poured a puddle of gas and grabbed a book of matches.
She lit up the matches and within moments the puddle went up in flames. She walked out and closed the door. She paused. She locked the door.
She gave one last glimpse of the cabin.
