I walked in the freezing ran I felt like someone was watching me. As looked behind myself there was no one there. I kept walking until I came across a beggar. He had no eye lids and a huge cut from his left side of his cheek to the right. It looked like a smile. I shivered as he said

"Lunar I have a rare condition that causes my appearance. Please don't be scared."

I started running while thinking

"How did he now my name?"

As I ran his light blue eyes followed. As I reached out of the mans view I still felt like he was watching, like he was following me.

As I got to my house I opened the door and looked behind me to make sure that no one had followed me home. I walked forward into the black of my home and reached for the lights. As I turned them on I heard a noise in the kitchen. It had sounded like someone had dropped a pot. I grabbed an umbrella from the hallway stand to protect myself from whatever was in the kitchen, but as I got there, there was nothing there. This freaked me out. I put the umbrella down and walked into the lounge room. I turned the light on a sat down in front of the T.V. As I started to watch South Park I realized someone was watching me. I looked out the window and he was there just staring at me. I screamed and ran for the phone. I quickly dialed triple zero. As heard the door open I cried our my address and what was happening to me to the lady on the phone. I ran to the kitchen grabbed a knife and took guard. I started to hear the sirens coming closer to where I stood. I heard the police run in and check my house but no one was there.
