Your eyes fluttered open, and you immediately regretted waking up. It was the middle of the night, your lamp was switched on, the light stinging your eyes. A headache immediately starting in your head, you struggled to keep your eyes open, trying to figure out where you were.

Once your eyes adjusted to the light, you realised you were in your own bed. On your bedside table were two painkillers on a napkin with a glass of water.
You managed to remember what happened last night. Vincent was arrested and shot in the shoulder and knee. It wasn't enough to be fatal... But if they let him bleed out, he could very well be dead.

You hoped that wasn't the case.

You slowly turned to your left and slid your feet off of your double bed onto the carpet. Sitting on the edge of your bed, you took the two tablets and tried to keep your head still, in order to not make the headache worse.

Scott must have dropped you home after the 'incident'.

You took a deep breath, just sitting there for a moment, trying to take in everything you heard last night. What if Vincent was dead? What if something bad happened while you were out? Hopefully it didn-

*thump* *thump*...

Footsteps?

You swear you heard footsteps.

Your gaze that was once towards the floor shifted over the the doorway to your house, which leads out to a long hallway. You saw something you never thought you had seen before.

There was this shadow. A misty shadow.. The outline of a human being, It stance being a slightly bent back, but standing tall in the doorway. What was it? It scared the living shit out of you.

It didn't move an inch. You couldn't tell if it had a face with this lighting, but you knew it was glaring at you from that dark hallway. A hallucination? Maybe a side effect of the pills?
The pills wouldn't have worked that quickly.
Maybe if you don't look at it, it will go away.

You turned your head towards the wall. A shiver running down your spine, the room was filled with a cold breeze before a whisper could be heard.

"It's me."

...

It's who now?

Your vision blurred for a moment, trying to get your feet but stumbling a bit in the process. That's enough.

"Who's there? What the heck are you?!" You shouted, trying to get its attention, before realising it had already disappeared.
Heavy footsteps could be heard in the kitchen, before plain silence.

The silence was almost deafening. You had to investigate.

You grabbed your phone and flicked on its in-built torch before slowly inching towards the doorway. You were shaking so much, you almost dropped the phone.

Almost there now.

*shatter*

You dropped your phone to the ground and let out a blood curdling scream when you found yourself looking straight into the eyes of the shadow entity. Turns out it does have eyes, and an ever so scarring grin. It seemed to share resemblance to Vincent, or maybe that was just your eyes playing tricks on you.

You took two steps back. The silence was deafening. It did not move, just stare blankly at you. Like you were meant to know who it was.

That silence was interrupted when the "thing" spoke. An ever so large grin plastered to his face..

"221" it whispered. It's voice sounded deep and demonic. Before you could ask anything, it turned its back to you, and sprinted down the hallway. All the cupboards in the hallway swung open with a bang on the connecting clips, the walls shook, and your door slammed shut before you could make out where he was heading to.

Your immediate reaction was to open the door.

It was.. Locked?

How could the door be locked now?

You pulled at the door handle with a strong grip, but it was no use. The door wouldn't budge. With a shattered phone and a locked door, what else was there to use?

You began to realise, if this thing WAS a hallucination, it couldn't lock doors or open cupboards, right?

So how did it do that?...
It whispered numbers too. 221.

You sat on the edge of your bed, and placed your head in your hands. Your hair fell from your shoulder to cover your face.

221... That all adds up to five.

Five...

A giggle of that of a small child was heard by your side. Well, more then one.

"Hello, friend. You left us to die in that basement, remember?"

...

You turned your head. A small group of short, dark shadows were all staring at you with a wide grin.

((yEEEEES I JUST DID THAT. The children Vincent murdered are BACK BBY.
On another note... I heard there's going to be a five nights at Freddy's movie? And apparently the purple man is LEGIT called Vincent, and being played by Nicolas cage? Not to mention Chica is being played by Miley Cyrus?... Okay, this is a lot to take in...
What do you guys think of this? Do you think it's true? News has been spread EVERYWHERE.))
