An Endless Night

Chapter 2: What's that sound?

I kept on running, I ran into the nearest tent. The tent was filled with clowns dancing as if they didn't have a care in the world. I ran up to one to ask if they could help me get away from the creature. Instead of answering me they all turned their heads to look at me. I then realized something, they didn't have hands, instead they had hooks. They weren't regular hooks, these hooks had something that looked like eyes attached to them, they were covered in blood.

I ran out of the tent only to be met with the singing creature, but this time it was missing something, it wasn't smiling anymore, it had a frown instead. It then started to talk to me.

"Did you not like my singing?" The creature said. 

I froze, I didn't know what to say. This only made the creature even more upset. It swung one of its arms at me, I then ducked and started to run. This time however the creature picked me up and started to violently shake me.

"I said, did you not like my singing? It's very rude to ignore people like that!"

I started to feel sick, and I'm pretty sure that this thing wasn't a human. It then dropped me, just before I could run it kicked me. It felt like getting hit in the stomach with a cannon ball. I don't know how I survived but I don't want to question it long enough for the creature to kick me again. I got up and started to run. Actually scratch that, tried to run. The pain in my stomach was to much to handle, I fell to the ground preparing for the pain that was to come. But instead I was pulled aside buy someone. 

I looked up to see a boy my age with black hair, he then opened his mouth to speak but was interrupted by a loud sound, it sounded like a a building being knocked over. The same sound was heard again but this time it was closer.

"Where are you? I promise I won't hurt you!" The creature yelled.

I froze, my eyes went wide. I wanted to move but I couldn't. The boy then straight up slapped me. I looked at him ready to yell at him before he started to speak to me first.

"Sorry, you weren't moving and you were looking freaked out. My name is Mike."

I told him it was fine and told him my name, I also thanked him.We got up and started to look for a way out. But then there was another sound but this time it wasn't the sound of a building being knocked over but instead it was laughter. Mike looked at me and grabbed my hand and started running while dragging me behind him. 

"Dude slow down! I yelled."

He only looked at me with and continued to run. It felt like someone was kicking my stomach over and over again. We then heard the laughter come from another direction. I looked down at my leg. It wasn't bleeding as much anymore, but it still hurt.

We managed to find somewhere to hide. We were safe for now. Mike said that he was also trapped here. He figured out that after it turns 12:00 and someone is still in the park the morning won't come. 

After it turns 12:00 everything that is part of this circus aside from the objects is able to do anything they want, no rules to stop them.
