I was in my little appartment, everything looked normal, the edges were blurry and i couldn't think or see straigt. then something popped up infront of me.

"you'll never get out of here" the shadow told me

my face was soaked with tears my head was spinning, and i couldnt think straight.

"i have to, my mom cant survive without me." i cried. i fell to the floor and put my face to my hands, the shadow look familiar but creepy. it was tall, it had a strong jaw and he look like he was here on a mission.

"your here, you can never leave... unless..."

BEEP BEEP BEEP

"AHHHHHHHH!!!" the dream was cut off by my alarm. i woke up covered in sweat and my face was soaked with tears. i didn't exactly want to continue that dream but i needed to figure out what the other option was. the dream seemed so real, and it wasn't the first time i had that dream.

my room look so bare except the boxes that were neatly stacked ready to be put in the moving truck.

"mom?" i yelled

instead of her normal happy go lucky voice all i heard was silance, and sometime that silance was oh so needed, but right now thats not exactly what i wanted. as i walked into the kitcken out of the corner of my eyes i kept seeing shadows. not my ideal way to spend the day. there laying on the counter was a piece of paper in her fancy cursive saying:

                                  sweetie,

               i went to the store, i'll be back soon. oh and make sure you load your stuff in the truck, we need to leave as soon as i get home. :) love you.

Ugh i can hear her perky voice in my head, and thats just what i needed! yeah thanks mom! i took out my phone and started to call my friend Tori, but i heard foot steps.

"mom, you home?" no answer. i went down the hall and looked but still nothing.

"hello? is anyone here?" i tried to sound strong but my voice shook with fear. out of the corner of my eye i saw a shadow pass by.

"who's there?!?

again no response. what could be there. no one is home and mom didnt hire anyone to pack uo stuff. in the pit of my stomach i felt like i had to run, all my sense told me to do the same, run...run as far away as i could get. i walked back to the kitchen pushing aside the feelings. i walked into the kitchen and everything started spinning. i was dizzy i couldn't see straight the edges of my vission faded and went black. i gave up trying to fight the black,  surrendered to it.
