An Endless Night

Chapter 1: Stuck

A/N

Sorry for not updating, I was really busy with school and I completely forgot. 

—————————————————

        I could here cry's of laughter as I entered the carnival. The first thing I saw was a large Ferris wheel, it had about 20 seats, each seat had colorful animals on it. I was so overwhelmed I didn't even realize the clown from last night was next to me.

"Hi there!" The clown says. 

I turn to face him.

"Hi?" 

The clowns smile just widens. 

"I'm glad you decided to come here! You can check in at that booth over there!" He says as he points to a booth a couple yards away from us.

"Thanks" 

The clown just nods and walks away. I walk over to the booth. There is a girl in a colorful dress sitting there scanning tickets. I get in line and start waiting. I finally got to the front of the line.

"Welcome! May I see your ticket?"

I hand her my ticket. And then she scans it. I move and start walking to the rollercoaster.

           I manage to go on the log ride, Ferris wheel, go carts, bumper cars and the roller coaster. I soon check the time and realize it was 8:30 when I got here, it was now only 9:52. I didn't believe what I was seeing. It took me ten minutes  to calm down. I decide to go and get a corn dog from one of the booths. It took me at least fifteen minutes to eat my corn dog, I was so bothered by the fact that it took me at least forty minutes in each line. 

        I decided to go on the scrambler and the rollercoaster. I got off the rollercoaster and all of a sudden I felt somebody watching me. I turned around and was faced with children running around with balloons in there hands. I walked away still feeling like someone was watching me. 

I walk to the Cotten candy booth and notice that there was the clown from yesterday sitting there. His smile becomes bigger as he sees me. I buy some pink cotton candy and check the time, as soon as I look at my phone I gasp realizing it was only 10:43. It should be around 12:00! I start panicking and run to the nearest ride. I don't even look at what it  is until it's too late. It was a fairly short line with a wait of 17 minutes. I see that it's the drop ride, and it was a big one. How big is this carnival!? I don't know why I didn't get out of the line, but it felt like something was forcing me to stay in the line. My own body was moving against its own will and kept walking towards the ride. And before I knew it I was on the ride. We started going up very quickly, I felt like I was gonna be sick. I looked down and saw how far down the ride was. Time seemed to be moving quicker. I then nearly scream as I saw that the bar holding me in place started to stop doing it's job and basically stop holding me in place. I grab the bar for dear life so I don't fall off. I then realized how dark it was, someone on a speaker started talking. 

"The carnival will be closing in 10 minutes! Please start to exit the carnival, we wouldn't want people getting trapped here!

I panic and see how far away I am from the exits, I then  remember that the bar that was supposed to be holding me down was not holding me down! The ride finally comes to a stop and before I can go and complain the person on the speaker says that there was only five minutes left until the park closed. I don't understand. He said that a minute ago? Right? I check the time and it says that it's 11:56! How did time go by that quickly! It couldn't have been the dropper ride! I was joking when I said time seemed to be going quicker! I start to run to the exit until I hear the person at the speaker say the park was closed. I feel the color drain from my face as I realize that I was running for only 20 seconds. I don't think they would lock me in yet. I think. 

        I start to run to the exit again and realize that I passed the dropper ride again. I look at it confused. I start to walk towards it and then I start to hear someone singing softly. It felt as though time stopped, I start to feel my self walking towards the sound. I turn around the corner to see what was singing and it wasn't someone but something. I couldn't believe my eyes I don't even know how that thing exists. It was a tall black and white creature (Not LJ) with claws and and a smile that seemed to stay. I started to run away from whatever that thing was. I then heard loud bang and I couldn't hear what was going on. I wasn't able to hear anything but the singing as I ran. I soon wasn't able to move, it felt like my legs were stuck to the ground. I was only able to run as I felt a jolt of pain in my leg. I looked down and saw that my leg was bleeding. I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding. I wasnt able to see what was in front of me. All I could do is run. I felt my sight slowly come back. However I was unaware of the creature behind me.

I won't lie, I started working on this months ago but had gotten a writers block. I don't know when I last updated it but I know that it was a long long time ago, so I apologize. Have a good/night :>
