Pray Before You Sleep

                       JOHNNY 13

 

   "13, 13, 13, 13...13, 13, 13, 13...13, 13, 13, 13...13. There Johnny I said it for as long as you wanted me to. When can I get out?"

       It was silent outside the restroom door.

"Johnny?" asked the little boy.

    The lights in the restroom turned off and started to shake voraciously. The little boy screamed for his brother Johnny, but Johnny never came. After 10 excruciating minutes of being stuck in the voraciously shaking restroom, there was finally a stop and the lights turned on.

     The little boy than got up, knees shaking, turning around slowly and saw that there was some writing on the mirror. On the mirror it was written, 

     "Johnny 13 is now 13 years old, you called him 13 times and he never came. Now Johnny 13 will be with us for 13 years thanks to you. Johnny 13 never expected this to happen so we took him on a good day, 6/13/14, on a Friday and at the age of 13. if you want him back then read this message aloud and say 13, 13 times. If not then Johnny 13 will be ours forever. Let's start now...13"

     The little boy then read the message aloud and repeated the number 13, 13 times. Johnny never came back. The little boy left the restroom and saw on his room mirror the words that printed

     "You fool. You said the number more than told... you'll never see your brother again."

      Tears filled up the little boys eyes as he was hearing soft laughing and the chanting of

        "Johnny, Johnny, Johnny."

      13 voices repeated Johnny's name 13 times. In the end, all of the 13 voices repeated Johnny's name in unison 13 times and started to fade away on the last 13th.
