My Mind - Short Stories From My Imagination

Part 21 ~ Imagine ~ nightly visit

Mild swearing and a little bit of violence

You lie in bed as always. You've just finished a movie and went to go to the bathroom. Technically you had to sleep since it was almost midnight, but who cares. On your way back to your room, and more importantly your bed, you hear something in the living room. You open the door and find the lights to be on. Strange. No one should be awake at this time.

You slowly make you way inside to investigate. When you see the couch you stop and hide. Someone is laying on the couch with a gun on his stomach. What should I do? Should I go back to bed and just pretend to sleep and pretend like I haven't seen anything? Or do I wanna make the obviously stupid choice and go closer.

You walked closer to the man. He seemed to be fast asleep so you were a bit more relaxed. He looked like trouble, even from far away but up close he also smelled of it. Great. He began moving around on the couch. Out of fear that he might wake up and see you, you hide behind the couch. The man moves around a bit more before stopping. You wanted to know what was going on but you couldn't take the risk of looking up.

"Who're you?" An unknown voice said from behind. You feel the warm metal in the shape of a gun to the back of your head. Even greater. You sit behind the couch in silence. Meanwhile the man is getting impatient.

"Hrnnng talk god dammit!" He yelled. You flinched.

"S... s... sorry s... sir." You stutter out. You didn't normally stutter but the situation made you do it.

"I... I'm a st... student here."

"*indescribable mumbling* fine. Get up." It sounded like he might have been talking to himself in the beginning. You got up and had your arms out just to make sure he didn't feel threatened.

"Wh... what're you g... going to do t... to me?" You ask qautiously.

"Eah-I don't know yet. And stop stuttering. It's annoying." Okay don't stutter. Got it. You looked at him while he thought. While looking at him you tried to calm down so you wouldn't stutter anymore. You calmed down enough to be able to talk normally again.

"Sir, can't I just go back to my bed? I promise I won't tell anyone that I've seen you. You have my word." He thought about it for a moment.

"Fine. Go back to bed and leave me alone." You nodded and thanked him, then hurried back to your bed.

After you fell asleep the man walked into your room.

"Sorry kid. But I leave no witnesses alive. Can't have any loose ends. They might just come back and bite you one day. Sorry it had to be your time so early. But I just ain't taking any chances. Goodbye kid." I shot the kid and the two other kids in the room. I then proceeded to shoot the other kids in the other rooms. As I said, never leave a loose end.

When they all were dead, and I were out of bullets, I left.
