In the dimly lit room, a persistent sound of typing fills the air as Hazel, fervently types away, racing against time to finish his latest article.
The headline reads, "Notorious Criminal Escapes Prison: City Gripped with Fear." As he delves deeper into the details, the room suddenly plunges into darkness.
The power outage sends a shiver down his spine,
"what the hell? " Hazel muttered under his breath
but he can't continue his work in darkness,
So he decided to take a look
With a flashlight in hand, Hazel carefully navigates his way through the labyrinthine corridors,
his heart pounding in his chest.
The stairs looked so eerie in the dark that he nearly made up his mind to return,
As he strode down he unexpectedly slipped but balanced himself, then he raised his hands and noticed something
Water?
He glanced at his hand in horror
It was raining outdoors, and he haven't gone out since the moment he had a conversation with Asrael on the phone,
So where did this water come from?
He shivered at the thought of someone breaking into his house and that someone being that infamous killer sent a chill down his spine
He thought that if that's the case then he has been trapped,
He can't run away cause the criminal will catch him anyway
And he can't stay because the criminal is in his house!
As he was trying to figure out his options, a cat jumped beside him, and he flinched, his one hand on his chest
The cat meowed and sprinted away
"It was merely a cat," Hazel spoke to himself and relaxed
"I was terrified for no reason, perhaps the cat came into the house to escape the rain and got the stairs wet" Hazel clarified to himself and sighed in relief
He got up and proceeded downstairs again, to see what was awry
As he reaches the fuse box, he saw it loose
"Why is this open?" Hazel inquires
He began to examine what is amiss
he notices a figure lurking in the shadows.
"wh-who is there?" Hazel stuttered, his suspicions seemed to be coming true
He mustered up the courage and asked again
"I asked who is there. And what are you doing in my house, how did you break in?" he questioned the person, but the shadow just stared at him
A chill runs down his spine as he realizes it's a woman, standing silently with an air of menace. The realization strikes him like lightning—this woman is none other than the escaped criminal he had been reporting on.
He was getting fearful
"Answer-
He was suddenly shoved to the wall with a knife in his throat
He started panting as the knife sat on his neck, threatening him
"Who I am, or how did I break in is none of your concerns, I am just letting you know that you're going to let me stay in your house for as long as I please. If you so much as think about alerting the authorities, remember that your loved ones are just a breath away from danger." the female whispered, her tone was bone-chilling, Hazel had no choice but to node his head
After all, she was not asking, she was informing him
"Good for you" She replied to his nod and stepped away from him, Hazel sucked in a sharp breath he was holding till now
He noticed the female eyeing him with something in her eyes, he can't comprehend
She smirked and climbed the stairs taking her upstairs as Hazel stood there huffing and praying for his life
After calming down he followed the female's lead and proceeded upstairs only to see her sprawled on the couch, her wet cloth damping his couch, but he can't complain about it, and one misstep can lead him to his death
He silently began to stroll upstairs to his room where he was writing his article, he has to either complete it as soon as possible or stop it for the time being as the criminal would be staying at his house so no one will be in threat
Nonetheless, he agreed to finish it since her temper does not come with a guarantee, she can go out to kill solely because she enjoys to
As he was ascending the stairs to his room lost in his thoughts, he was abruptly halted by a voice
"stop right there" He heard her, her tone commanding it sent shivers down his spine
