"I...uhm..." Mira stammered. "I'm calling the cops," Jack said, turning around. "No! Wait! I have something to tell you!" Mira shouted. Jack turned around to look at Mira with tears in her eyes. "Thank you...the truth is...I...I love you Jack...from the moment I saw you when we moved in here," Mira confessed, tears flowing out her eyes. "I'm sorry, but this isn't the time when you confess. This is the time when I call the police, you lunatic!!" Jack told her with tears in his eyes.
He began running as fast as he could out of the house and down the corridor. "Weird, she's not chasing me?" He thought. He stopped running and cautiously began to make his way back to where Mira was. As he inched closer towards Mira's house, he heard crying. He peeked in and saw Mira on her knees with her hands on her face. Her light purple pullover was covered in blood and her black ripped jeans were drenched in it. She was crying hopelessly on the ground. Jack felt so bad even though he wasn't in the wrong in the first place. He walked up towards her and asked, "Hey what happened? Why are you crying?" As he moved closer he realised that there was a knife beside her now and he instantly felt scared.
Mira stopped crying. She looked up at Jack slowly, her jet black hair covering most of her eyes. To Jack's horror, he saw a big, red slit across her neck. Jack's eyes widened in shock, opening his mouth wider to scream as he faintly saw blood streaming down Mira's eyes. She wasn't crying tears, no. She was crying blood.
Mira grinned as she stood up slowly, showing off her razor sharp teeth. "You came back for me jack! Does this mean you care about me? Do you love me too Jack? I love you so so much I can't bear to see you with another girl..." "I don't love you! Get away from me!" Jack screamed as he ran away from her. "Hahahahahahahahahahah......" Mira's laugh echoed through the walls. Jack felt his feet leaving the ground. He was levitating! He struggled as he shouted "What's happening?!"
He felt an unseen force pulling him towards Mira's house. "No! No! Don't make me go back there!! Help! Help!! Seriously how is no one hearing this?!" Soon he was facing Mira. Mira had her hand out. She used her other hand to slam the front door of her house. "What are doing?! Let go of me!!" Jack yelled in anger. "You think you can escape me, fool? HAHAHAHAH...Jack...I'm so happy...we get to be together...forever...let's start by getting the mood right..." Mira said with a sadistic smile plastered on her face. Her eyes glistened with the thought of what she's going to do next.
She slowly let Jack down to stand on the ground. Then she walked closer to him. "Don't even think of trying to escape my grasp." She grabbed him by the neck, her sharp fingernails piercing through his skin. "Come on! Compliment me..." "N-no!" Jack forced out. Mira grabbed him tighter. "DO IT!! NOW!!" She shouted with a demonic voice. Her eyes turned completely black. "BEFORE I KILL YOU!!" Jack's eyes widened in fear and shook his head violently. "Then say it!" Mira screamed. "You're...p-pretty!" Jack managed to force out.
"O-oh...oh...J-Jack...you're m-making me," Mira loosened her grip, "HUNGRY!! MORE MORE!!" She ordered as she tightened her grip again, blood running down Jack's neck. "You're the most beautiful person I've ever met!" Jack gasped, out of breath. Almost in an instant after hearing that, Mira let go of Jack as he fell to the ground. He was catching his breath on the ground as Mira said, "You're so sweet Jack...I love sweets! I want you Jack...please...let me eat you up." She inched towards him as he screamed, "NO!!"
