I have heard that scream before. I know I have. That girls scream. That same blood-curdling scream. Where is it coming from?

"Miranda!!"

"Huh?" I say, sleepily rubbing my eyes. I look at my clock. 3:04am. Who in their right mind would be up right now?

Then I freeze.

That scream. The same one I had in my dream. That blood-curdling scream. It sounded like it came from the kitchen. I don't know what to do. Go down into the kitchen to see if someone is playing a joke on me,or stay in my warm bed and try to forget about it. The second one sounds nice but i better go and ceck.

As i tiptoe down the stairs, I freeze. It sounds like someone is in the kitchen. I peek around the corner. nobody in sight. Wow, you are really sleepy. Just go back to bed. I think to myself. As I turn around to go back up the stairs, I hear that scream again. I wipp around. i see something outside on the sidewalk. It is white and has long blond/white hair. I creep to the window, and peer out side. The white figure is gone. How can someone disapper so fast? I wonder. As I turn around, I feel something clasp the back of my neck. Then the next thing i know it's gone black.
