I was at the door. If I opened the handle, that was it, there was less than a 50% chance that I'd make it back out alive. 

I shivered at the thought of what it could be, you wouldn't imagine what I thought.

Taking a deep breath in, I finally opened the door. Taking steps inside, I swiftly turned my head from left to right until I looked down at my bed. To the right of my eye, a bat caught my eye. And for the first time in my life, I was so grateful that I chose baseball as a sport.
