My hands shook as my Aunt gave me my supplies and a card in hand, "Under any circumstances, do not open the door until 7:30, in the morning, no matter what you see or hear, keep praying" I nodded and went in my room, my uncle said with a worried face, "Goodluck, stay strong, and be brave", and my Grandma hugged me, they closed the door and I sat on the ground, gripping my card.
A bit later I read a book from my bookshelf, and then I decided to try on some of my clothes, I placed my card on top of a pile of clothes and put on one of my jackets, just then someone knocked on the door, my eyes darted to the door, I heard my Aunt's voice. "Are you okay Akane? Do you want me to come in? I can accompany you if you're scared", I smiled and went to open the door, and just then, I remembered what my Aunt said. I looked over to my card, lying in my pile of clothes, "Why are you not answering?" my Aunt said, a bit aggressively, I looked back at the door, that wasn't my Aunt..... Just then the doorknob was rattling violently, I stepped back, my heart beating loudly. Then a bang on the door, "LET ME IN!" I was scared, then for a second, it was silent, then the noises came back again, the doorknob rattling loudly, the window rattling, "PO...PO....PO.....PO..." I covered my ears, darted, and snatched my card back, I sat down and started praying quickly, I rocked back and forth. "Please....stop....please...!" I whispered.
Then 7:30 came around, I grabbed my clock and looked into it, I was done, I was able to get out, I opened the door, and my Aunt, uncle, and Grandma swarmed me and I hugged them, then I saw my parents, they hugged me tight, they were here to pick me up. My mom stepped in, "Sorry to interrupt, we have to leave now", everyone went in the van to keep me safe and to drop me off, "Keep your eyes closed at all times, don't look out the windows" My Aunt warned. She gave me the charms and we went in. "No matter what you see or hear, everyone in this car are your blood relatives and they will keep you safe." My dad started the car and we started to drive, we barely even made a turn when Hachishakusama appeared out of the window, I screamed and looked down, but everyone kept me safe, "DON'T LOOK!" My Aunt cried out. The rest of the ride went smoothly.
4 years later, I was on the phone with my Aunt, my parents needed to go on another business trip, and I wanted to stay with my Aunt in Uncle in Japan again, "I know, but that won't stop me from coming back, after all, it was years ago.....Okay, see you", I hung up until... "Po...po....po...po.....", I looked back and let out a bloodcurdling scream...... "AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!"
THE END.
