I'm tired but I just cannot get to sleep. This is annoying.
"Ahhh" a woman yelled from the distance.
What was that? He trembled in fear. It's nothing . It has to be nothing. It has to be something!
What do I do ? His mind kept playing in repeat. Okay, I'll tell my parents. Quickly Minato!
I push my hand on my mom's shoulder . " mom... , mom ... , MOM!
What happened? She says half awake.
I heard a scream from next door! He says tearing up.
Calm down, I didn't hear anything, and your father hasn't either. You have an active imagination.
But I did! She fell a sleep on me. I can't waste my time I need to take action in my own hands!
He grabs a knife from the kitchen cabinet and grabs his cellphone. He sneaks out from the back door .
He stood there motionless with his heart pounding a million beats in a minute. He could see into the neighbors window.
And there he stood 6'9 man with long slender body wearing a black body suit with his neck covered in white bandage wrapped. Leading to an intimidating white mask with blue triangle placed where the mouth is. Two upturned lined where the eyes are suppose to be. His hair golden blonde, full and voluptuous. He's wears blue and gray vertically striped gloves that reach to his elbows. In his hand he sees a long sword shaped like a needle with a line of string holding it. In that string. There is blood dripping off the sword. And the dead bodies lying on the floor. He lets out a high pitched laugh.
It sends shivers through Minato's body . He immediately bursts into tears. And that's when the man turns around.
