When I get back there is a dark red trail leading to my backyard. I drop my stuff and follow the gooey red trail. When I get to my back door I almost fall over from the stench of the dead animal on my porch. I get closer and realize that it is smokey the cat. A tear slips my eye and I crouch down beside him holding my nose. Who could of done this I thought, why all the deaths why now. Then I hear rustling in the bushes and I turn around quick to find nothing. But get this when I turned back the cat was gone but written in the blood from him is, "I'm back". I gasp and run into my house and lock the doors and when the last door is locked I slide down it and start to cry. I mean this can't be happening again to me, I must be seeing things I say to myself. Only I know I didn't and I am truly petrified. It brings back the memories of that night my parents died and it was my fault. I can't stand but to remember that very night, when I came home from having a night out with my friend Kishia I open the doors to find my parents lying in a pool of there own blood and on top of them pink roses. I walked in a little more only to get a glimpse of who really did this horrid deed. When I looked at him his eyes were as red as cherries and his smile as big as the moon. He jumped out the window in a hurry and I called the cops.After I called them in the middle of the room was the ouija board.The tears flood to my face as I remember such a vivid memory. I hear a knock on my door and I scream.When I look out it's only John, I go and greet him with a hug and then tell him everything. He comes in and sits on my couch abnormally quiet. He smiles and starts to laugh I look at him seriously and start screaming at him but he does not stop. I slap him and he instantly stops and looks at me except those weren't his eyes. In place of Johns gorgeous blue eyes are red glowing eyes blood streaming from them. I start to walk to my phone but he grabs me and ties me up. When I struggle to get free he cuts me across the face with a paring knife. Tears start to stream into my face combining with the blood from my cut. I shakingly ask for this demonic thing to let my friend go but it just laughed and what it said next tore my heart. "Oh Emily you've been so blind" he said in a deep voice, "Have you ever wondered why everything you love dies well remember the time you messed with the board?" I practically jump out of my skin and say "It's you". He laughs and says, "Did you really think you could get rid of me that easily, why I would think you think of me as a fool". I shake my head "No I got rid of you when I got rid of the board!" "They never really leave unless you say goodbye, he says, i will just keep coming back again and again." Then out of nowhere the cops knock on the door saying "excuse me miss but we had a call about a noise and we would like to come in and see".John twitches and then blood starts streaming down his eyes like waterfalls and then the police knock down the door to find me tied up and John. John flung the cops to the side and started saying these weird satanic thing when a man no older than 28 jumped on his back and brought him down. The cops cuffed him and took him away but not before he smiled at me with his creepy smile and a low chuckle. When I look outside I see him in the cop car and he is laughing hysterically and crying deep dark red tears. When I turn to look again they are already gone into the moonlight night never to be seen again. I shudder at the situation I was just through and headed to my bathroom to clean my cut. I open the medicine cabinet only to find a pink rose and I cover my mouth at what the note said with it. It was from John but not the John I knew. It just said "I'll be back someday" and a creepy smile to go with such terrifying words. A little shiver runs down my back when I say the words to myself. I shake it off and tell myself everything is going to be fine which it comforts me some but not much. I lay down on my bed and sink my head into the push pillows and doze off. When I wake again the next morning I slowly get up and stretch my arms up to the sunlight coming in the clear window. It makes me happy to see such a beautiful outcome come from such a horrid night. I get up still in my skinny jeans and holey shirt and walk to the window to get a better look outside. When I get to the window I hear the creak of the floorboards behind me and I slowly turn my head to see who it is. When I am completely turned around nobody is there so I shake it off and go to my closet to get ready for this beautiful day. I grab the first shirt I see which is a Rolling Stones shirt and a pair of skinny jeans. When I have them on I go downstairs to eat. In my fridge I find some blackberries and raspberries and decide to eat them for breakfast. I sit down to enjoy the sweet taste of the berries when again I hear the creaking of the floor board. This time I turn around faster but still nothing there. I look at myself in the mirror in my living room and ask myself am I really going crazy? I shake my head fiercely and tell myself no. I hear the boards again and I don't turn around but start to cry. I was so terrified and scared about going crazy. But no I hear them walking towards me now and then a cold breath on my eat and a bloody hand on my shoulder. Without and second thoughts I run to my door to leave this house. But the door never comes and it seems to fade and then everything is red. I look at my hands and touch my head to find blood dripping from it in agony and pain i let out a little squeal and try to get to the door. I hear the steps again and I crawl towards the door faster and then with a fierce swishing noise I see black dots but I don't give up. I keep going and when i'm right at the door I can't even reach the handle. I try to stand up blood dripping down the sides of my arms and then the fatal blow comes and I turn and see John for the last time. I throw my hands to my face and call for help but it's too late and John swings and then all is black. In the blackness I see the light and I run to it only to be stopped by the demon in John laughing and giggling. The demon is all red with little horns all over it and has the most ferocious looking face ever, blood dripping from his chin unnaturally strong arms and long horns on his head. When I turn back he is there and then he is all around me, I try to run but I just can't his slender arms cradle me like some sort of animal in a cage. I scream but I have no voice, I try to escape but I have no strength or my will to do anything disappeared and then the vision of him was gone and I was swallowed up by seas of deep dark red flames.
