The November Raven

ANGELO

Midnight came and Seth was all ready to leave. I packed a few more shirts then looked at him. He wore all black and tossed his hair in a bun.

"Ready?" He whispered.

"Yeah. How do we get out of here?"

"There's a guard at the end of the hall and he's usually asleep by now, just make sure you're quiet. There's a closet right by the girl's bathroom. This place is ancient so the windows don't have alarms and this one is never locked. We jump out the window and stay as close as we can to the building. There's a spot that isn't viewed by the camera so when we get there we run straight into the woods."

I nodded and took one last glance around the room. He walked to the door and I followed close behind. The floors in the hallway were a bit creaky but he avoided it like a pro. I quickly caught on that I needed to stay close to him or else I'd ruin this whole operation. The whole place was dark, I could barely see Seth who was not even a foot away from me. The place was eerily quiet too. All I could think about was if we made even the smallest sound then we would get eaten by a monster. It didn't help that that people were decorating for Halloween earlier. We passed the guard and went into the closet. There was a small window and there were so many cleaning supplies in here that the both of us barely fit. I looked up at Seth as he fiddled with the window. This was the first up-close look I've had at him, he had a sharp jawline and his eyes looked very green in the moonlight. To be completely honest, he could have been a model in another life if he didn't have such a gruesome scar. Finally, he got the window open and he slid through. I, on the other hand, did not make it as easily. I sat on the window sill, just like he did, then pushed myself out. I really should have looked to see how far down I was going because I landed right on top of Seth. I heard a few things crack.

"Son of a bitch! What the hell! Get off on me!" He whisper yelled at me. I quickly scrambled off of him and apologized like a madman. He ignored my apologies and looked up at the window. Quickly, he pulled me against his chest and covered my mouth. We both sat quietly against the building when a guard looked out the window.

"Stupid kids. Keep playing pranks on me." The guard said then closed the window.

Seth looked at me and whispered, "get up." I nodded and stood close to the building. We both walked to the end. It was a cold night but lots of people still had their windows cracked so we had to stay extra quiet. I looked up the trees & a big bird passed overhead. It had a loud caw and it was kinda scary, like the beginning of a horror movie.

Hello again! Speaking of horror movies I just finished watching Nightmare On Elm Street 7. This has become one of my favorite movie series. What's your favorite movie?
