For Peter_Pans_Girl1
It's another night in the job.
"Hey Angie! Did you hear about the parents who got murdered by their child?...Chilling stuff" said the newbie, Arnold.
"There's some scary stuff happening...but being emergency operators...we hear this stuff all the time" I replied.
A shrill silence filled the room, and like a raindrop disrupting a calm puddle, the sound of my desk phone broke the silence. I jumped out my seat and then laughed, I was scared by a phone ringing, I'm such a wuss!
I pick up the phone and hold it against my ear.
"Hello, this is 911 operator, how may I help you?"
"There...there is a man outside my house..." a little voice said.
"Can you describe him?" I asked, keeping my voice calm and soothing.
"He is tall, he's in black suit and tie, has long arms, no facial features that i can see... in fact it seems as though he doesn't have a face..the light is shining in him and it's just showing a smooth fac..." she trails off and I hear her breathing hasten.
"What? What's wrong" I ask, anxious.
"As I was talking to you...he turned up and looked at me..." whispered the little girl.
I gulped.
"Okay run into the closest closet or lockable room and stay there with a weapon or something you can defend yourself with" I told her.
I quickly dispatched the police to her location.
"Okay, are you okay?" I asked.
"Yes, I hope so..." she whispered, her voice shaking and her throat sounded like it was full of tears.
"Okay honey, how about you tell me your name?" I asked, politely.
"My-my-n-name is- Angela." She whispered.
"That's a pretty name, my name is Angie. The police should be arriving soon. How old are you?" I asked her, reassuringly.
"I'm 7" she replied.
"Where are your parents?" I asked, confused.
"They said that they were going to the shop to buy us some fish and chips for dinner but they haven't come back yet...I'm scared Angie" she said, her voice wavering.
"You'll be okay, the police are five minutes away..." I get cut off as I hear the door creak.
My eyes widen as I realise it is in the same room as her.
Some inhuman sound winds it's way into my ears and I have to throw the headphones off because it is painful in my ears.
"The police will be here soon." I whisper to Angela.
"Oh...that won't be needed" whispered a voice and next thing I know, I hear doors being torn off hinges and screaming...lots of it.
"ANGIE HELP" I heard Angela scream. Before I could do anything or say anything, I heard the sound of someone losing air, trying to grasp it but failing. Someone being choked to death. Her skin would be becoming blue now, her air supply depleting... I hear running up the stairs and I hear the police come in.
"State county police, put your hands up." I hear.
"Oh my god" I hear one of the officers say.
I can't handle it...I hang up. A cold sweat has broken over my face and I fell dizzy.
"Are you okay?" Asks Arnold.
I can't answer.

And that was the most disturbing phone call I have ever gotten in my life...
