I woke up around 2:34 am, interrupted by some kind of strange noises that came from downstairs. It was hard to step out of bed since my head hurted. I slowly open the door trying to not make any noise. I crawled hiding before the stairs that leaded to the kitchen, spying on the noise maker. And there she was, trying to get my attention.

"Good morning my little fella!" She said as she stopped making noises and let a creepy smile.

"The sun haven't come out yet."

She gave a me a dirty eye.

An alarm sounded from the living room.

I saw the clock and it was 3:00 am. The lights went out, and I got scared.

"Yay! It's time to play hide-and-seek! You hide and Ill count til' 10. And if I catch you... You know... I shouldn't tell ya."

She said as she covered her eyes.

"1...2...3...4... Go hide! ... 5...."

I tried to find a spot so she couldn't find me but it was just impossible. She was smart enough, so she could catch me in any way.

"6..7..8.."

And I found a big closet right on the upstairs hall. It had many towels, so I fit myself in and put tons and tons of towels on front of my, so she could not catch me that easily. There was a little hole in the closet, so I could see her from upstairs.

"9... And 10! Ready or not, here I come!" She said as she started looking for me.

She started opening the kitchen doors and crashing anything she would find if she didn't find me yet.

Crash!

Bang!

Slam!

BAM!

She kept trowing random stuff to the floor.

"Come out, come out wherever you are!"

I tried not to breath since she could hear me as she got slowly closer and closer.

She passed through the bathroom.

"Maybe you're here!"
She said as she pulled the shower curtain.

"Maybe not there." She said getting angry.

Because of her angriness, believe it or not, she broke the stunning mirror that was glued on the cold wall over the sink.

"You can hide, but you can't escape from me!"
She said as she runned straight to my room.

"Oh no! My dolls!" I said to myself quietly.

I heard the noise of her plastic hands pulling of their hairs, popping off their heads and the aroma of the plastic burns.

Somehow she found an axe and destroyed my doll house!

"I'm near you.." She said as she pulled the axe on the floor, while she rasp the hardwood-resistant floor.

I started to panic since she had an axe and she could catch me anytime.

Then, she walked towards the closet and broke it in two parts.

Hoping she wouldn't catch me, I let a chain of tears run through my cold red cheeks. And well, feeling like I was being watched.

"I got you!" And she screamed as her eyes were pitch black and blood was running from her plastic mouth. She turned her axe and pointed it straight to me. When she was about to crack my head open, I realized it all was a nightmare.

I jumped out of bed, heavily breathing and tears running from my eyes. I runned to the bathroom and washed my face with the cold water. Then, after drying my face with the towel, I see her in the mirror, standing at the door.

"Slept well?" She let a scary grin.

When I turned around she wasn't there anymore.

I came downstairs looking for mom and dad. Dad wasn't at the basement, or the kitchen, or the living room, neither mom was. I came upstairs and checked mom and dad's bedroom. And there they were, sleeping tight, or that's what I though.

I jumped on the soft comfort hoping they would wake up but they didn't.

"Goodmorning mommy! Goodmorning daddy!" I yelled, but still no answer. When I lift their heads so I could see them, I froze in shock.

They had no eyes, blood was running from their mouths.

"I warned you!" She said as she laughed. Her voice would bounce in every corner of the house, so whatever she said I could hear her.

"You're so alone now!" She kept laughing and laughing while I cried.

"YOU'RE SO GONNA PAY FOR THIS!" I wiped up my tears and standed for my parents.

"Oh, you sure you wanna play?"

"In that case, I'll invite my friends. But, I guess you're not ready for the hard stuff, so I'll keep it for the next time.

Her friends!? She has more friends as dolls?! No, no, no! It can't be! My dolls! Ah! Oh wait, I remember she broke my dolls so, phew!

"You better run before you get caught by me. Even, if I'm watching you standing right now, I'll let you run in hunger and tired, but soon, I'll catch you."

She explained.

I wish I were just free, everything back to normal, but, what did I do? Why did I do to have to pay this way?

I wonder what's Faith's story.

The basement!

That's it! I might find her story right behind dad's machine! Hope my dad doesn't have to pay for anything. And when I mean anything, is anything.
