DING! The alarm clock in my dank shadowy room strikes 11:00pm. I plunge out of my bed and race over to my white dresser to quickly grab clothes to change into. "Creak"! The floor outside my room sounded. I quickly plunge myself back into bed and seal my eyes close. The door abruptly opened with a bang. I could feel the presence of someone hovering over me but still I lay as still as a statue. "Boom"! The door slammed shut and I instantly shoot out of bed with a phew. I finish putting clothes on and start heading towards the window in my dark room. DING! My alarm clock once again sounded. I dashed over to my clock to shut it off before it could awaken anyone. I strolled back over to the window and glanced outside to see a blue car waiting there. Soon after I slowly open my window with a huge smirk on my face. I plummeted outside and down the roof to get to the blue car. As I sneak upon the car I see two people in the rear window; A girl and a boy. Their names are Renee Symone and Jim Harte, my best friends. The door squeaked open and I hopped inside."Hey, are you ready to go to the Crazed Carnival"? "Its 11:30 at night on October 30th, I don't think I'll ever be ready", Renee said laughing. Jim staring into my eyes said " The adrenaline is going to be impeccable, fear and terror are the best thing a person can experience". Renee and I tried to laugh it off and pretend like we weren't scared of his view of terror. Jim slowly started the car just as I got an alert on my phone. It read" leaving this house will be your last mistake"! I assumed it was from some dumb pranksters, but in the pit of my stomach I had a terrible felling. Since I didn't want to startle anyone I kept the message to myself, which might have been a huge mistake.
