Joey's POV:
"HELP!" Yelled Naomi.
"Where are you?!?"I yelled trying to listen for a Response.
"AHHH!?!" Naomi screamed followed by the sound of a knife cutting through someone. As I run towards the screams, a tear rolls down my face. I find her, but she's not alive....she's dead. Tears roll down my cheek as I fall to the ground next to her.
"Why did this have to happen to you?!" I cried. I look at her for the last time then I heard a woman laughing.
"WHY DID YOU DO THIS?!?" I screamed.
Then I woke up. I'm glad that didn't happen but that was a bad dream...well hopefully Naomi is okay. I slowly rolled out of bed as I heard my loud alarm go off. I get up and turn it off then I go to my closet and grab some jeans and my favorite shirt.
Some time passes by...
Geez I need to get walk to school, I wonder if Naomi wants to meet somewhere so we can meet somewhere? I open my messages and see that she has seen my latest text I sent, maybe she forgot to respond?

Me: Hey...you haven't replied yet, is everything okay?
Naomi: Yeah, every thing is fine :)
Me: are you sure? Your not using your emojis. Is everything fine?
Naomi:Yes, I told you! I'm fine! 😀
Hmm she doesn't usually use that emoji? But this has to be her, it has to be!

Me:Is that actually you, Naomi?
Naomi: of course it's me! Why wouldn't it be?
Me: you just seem different...
Naomi: well I promise you, it's really me. Now do you want to meet somewhere so we can walk to school together?
Me:Sure! Maybe at the park near Abby's Pub?
Naomi: Okay then.

This can't be her, she seems different. Usually she would use emojis in every text she sends... I might hide behind the pub and see who actually arrives, well I best be getting to that pub.
As I walk to the pub I hear a woman talking and laughing, I hide behind a bin in the ally way near Abby's Pub. I poked my head out from the side of the bin to see who it was, but it was just two old women laughing and talking. Funny, I thought it was a crazy person talking to herself.
I slowly got up and walked down the ally way down to the pub that i have to hide behind. I quickly hide behind the pub and take a peek, no one is there yet... this person might be hiding too? I poked my head from the building and I see a tall woman with black hair in a blue and white dress. It looks like the crazy lady that was chasing me the other day... is that, NAOMI'S MOM!?! What happened to Naomi?!? Where is she?!? I slowly back away then run towards the other side of town trying to find Naomi's house.

A couple minutes later I'm at the other side of town in front of my worst fear...Naomi's house. I quickly run to the front door and open it, weird. Why would it be open??? I can figure that out later! Right now I have to find Naomi! I run into the house and yell her name, no answer. I try again then I hear something, from a the basement! I  run to the door to the basement but it's locked! I run to the kitchen and look through all the draws and cabinets but I saw nothing... I then remembered that there was a key on the front table near the front door. I run towards the door and quickly grab the key then I run to the basement door and unlock it.   I run down the stairs trying not to slip. I look around but it's pitch black. Oh no, this is like my nightmare! I just have to find light, then hopefully I can see her. I look around then my head bumps on some string or something, I pull it and it was the light. Thank Goodness! I look around then I see a little puddled blood I look up and it was Naomi!
"What happened?!?" I yelled as I ripped the fabric off her mouth.
"Shhh...she might hear you" Naomi whispers.
"What happened too your arm?!?" I whispered trying not to yell.
"Just get me out of here and I will tell you, oka-" Naomi just cut off by the sound of the front door opening...
