Riddle #5:

I was woken by a strange sound.

However, its still dark outside.

As I fumble for the light switch, I wonder what time it is.

Very early, I guess.

Even though I flick the switch, the lights doesn't come on.

No electricity, I guess.

Only thing I can do is lie her and wait for dawn.

Everything is eerily silent.

Yet, I'm sure I heard something.

Even though I can't see, I can listen.

Something is there, I'm sure of it.
