"Mummy?", silence surrounded her as she continued wondering in the dark.

"Mummy....", as she began to tear. "I want mummy...", her tiny hands began to shake.

She walked deeper into the darkness as she cried for help. The sound of her own heartbeat echoed throughout the wide empty space.

"Megan my love..." She turned around. "Mummy?", she said with relief. She walked closer to the direction the familiar voice came from.

"Mummy... Please don't play games anymore." A giggle was to be heard. "I'm not sweetie." This time, the voice was rather dark, mysterious, hollow.

Taking a step back, she began running. Her mind was running wild. Who was that? It wasn't mummy. I'm afraid.

"Come back my love." the voice growled. "No!" As she continued to run, she soon became breathless, exhausted. Streaks of tears flowed down her face.

She heard a cackle. It was just beside her. Oh no.

"Why did you run away dear child? You're lost, and I found you."

The little girl soon saw two red eyes starring back at her. Grinning.

"I've found you."
