•The Sewer•

After coming home from the movies I was petrified. My friends took me to a horror movie that I didn't want to watch. I'm the type of person who "cares what others think" so when they told me I wouldn't be brave enough to watch The Turning I wanted to prove them wrong. And I did somehow, even though my eyes were closed for probably all of it. My friend dropped me off at home and I went to get ready for bed. After letting my eyes close I was craving something to eat. This has never happened to me before but I didn't care and went to go eat something

My mom came into the kitchen after I did and said hi. Hi? She would be yelling at me right now, what's wrong with her. She didn't even ask how it went with my friends? I said hi back suspiciously and went back to biting my carrots. She took some water out of the fridge and I saw her fingers were cut off. I widened my eyes, not able to make a sound. She left and I sat there. I looked at the carrot in my hand and the box on the table and saw her ring on her finger. I screamed so loud the world could probably hear me. I was expecting my parents to come down but no one came. "Mom! Dad!" I screamed climbing up the stairs to their room. They were gone. I couldn't find anyone.

I went out of the house and saw both their cars in the driveway. My heart was pounding and tears dropped from my eyes. Everyone was gone. "Hello?" I called in the neighborhood. Nobody answered. I couldn't talk or do anything. I ran through the streets trying to find help. I heards something behind the bushes. "Hello? Please help me!" I called. But instead the face appeared in the sewer under me. I screamed loudly again. The face was broken. It had dirt on it and when it smiled all its teeth were sharp and raged. It. I realized I was calling it and it. The face smiled at me and tried crawling out but I ran. Eventually I noticed I got nowhere and kept running in the same direction. I kept crying, and screaming "No, please no" I didn't know why I said no but I just didn't want whatever that was to hurt me.

It grabbed my leg and I screamed as I was pulled down into the sewer. I woke up drenched in sweat and tears, my clothes were stuck to my body. I realized it was all a dream so I got up to go to the kitchen and calm myself down with cold water. I then went to go check on my parents because of how scared I was but they were gone. I went and checked the drive way through the window and their cars were still there. I looked in the house but they were nowhere. Just like my dream my heart started to pound and I felt my breath get heavier. There's no way, I thought to myself. No.
