the disappearance

Chapter 4

Then that was the last that I heard of him. I haven't heard from him since that day and that was like a week ago. But I will admit that not a lot has happened since then it has been quite and I have had no run ins with the dark figure that seems to be following me around everywere I go. In a way I have kind of missed being spooked by something. I like to think that maybe if I see that thing again I might

be able to confrount then and ask why they are following me and what they want with me.But since then you could kind of say that my life has gone back to normal in a way, people are starting to talk to me and not thinking that I am a complete weirdo and I have made a few friend ,if you could call them that. But one of them is Jane she Is great and if I ever had a problem she would be waiting round the corner to help me with it she has short frizzy hair that is blonde which is now red and looks amazing, with bright blue eyes and then there is jen and she is tiny but one of the most amazing people that I have ever met, she has mousey brown coloured hair, with brown eyes and if anybody annoyed me so much then she would be there to kick there arse and that she did every-time I was upset. Its amazing she has such power and strength for a little person and they both manage to cheer me up and ever since we have become friends I couldn't imagion life without them both.

"omg" jane screams from a distance and I sprint towards her because I thought that she was hurt but in actual fact it turns out that she just wanted to get my attention to tell me something "should me you and jen have a sleep over?" I stare at her blankly and she gives the same look back waiting for an answer " um... yea okay, but when and I thought u were hurt by that scream" "Saturday night, but it cant be at mine because I wont have the space, but we could have it at yours!" she squeeks " oh ..... yes great idea.... I don't know why I didn't think of that" I slap my forehead. Realising my mum has been up for the idea of me having friends round, so there wasn't much point asking her about it

"OMG!! yes, it's Friday" I cheer as I jump out of bed. I get ready like I usually would for a normal day, but today feels odd and it's making me a little edge. I leave a normal time to walk and catch the bus, but I end up standing at the bus stop for far longer than I usually would. Now come to think of it, it is really quiet there are no cars only very faint singing birds and I haven't seen anybody walk to school. That's when I know there is something wrong and I run home, not really caring about being late for school. Running up drive rummaging in my pocket for my keys and unlocking the door, it slowly opens "MUM!!" I scream "MUM!!" I scream again but nothing no movement and no reply I dart around the house in panic and fear looking in every room in the house but, nothing. I sit with my legs to my chest at the bottom of the stairs as a single tear runs down my cheek "MUM!! Where are you??" I cry out. At this point my tears are running more freely leaving dark stains on the knees of my jeans. I sat there for what felt like minutes, which was in actual fact hours. Hours I sat there crying and thinking of what could have happened. You know that saying 'u won't miss them till there gone' well that's kinda true cause I miss my mum like crazy now. As I find the ability to move again the door handle moves and I slide to the floor and a shadow Is reflected on the window as I hit the ground the door slowly creaks open, my whole body is shaking "h..h...who are you" I stutter out as a tear rolls down my cheek again. The figure shuts the door stoping the light from shining in and replies " I am...."
