I sat on the couch in my living room, delightfully watching a movie and eating popcorn. But all of a sudden, I heard footsteps. I was home alone, and the worst possible thought raked my mind,
An intruder.
My heart raced as I thought of what to do. I had a gun under my bed, but what if they heard me?
I decided to take the risk.
I slowly got up from the couch, tip-toeing across the living room. I looked around as I walked down the hallway, looking into every room. I reached the bedroom. I sighed of relief. I walked in the bedroom quietly, incase someone was in here. I bent down next to the bed and grabbed the gun, when all of I sudden I heard a swoosh that I recognized.
My closet door.
I spun around to see a tall man wearing a mask with a butcher knife in his hand. I trembled. Then, he pounced on me, me on the ground, his whole body weight on me. A knife dug into my neck and I screamed.
"Help! Please help!" I screamed as loudly as I could, before I started choking on my blood. But I was still alive. Still alive to feel the great pain as a knife slid onto my arms skin, lifting it and skinning me. I tried to scream but I just coughed up blood all over myself. I struggled, my arms flailing. I saw my skinned arm and everything went dizzy. Soon, everything went black.

"That's right sir. I heard a woman screaming 'Help, please help!' They sounded very distressed then I never heard it again." A neighbor told a cop as they walked to Karla Wallace's home.
"Coming from the house to your left? This one?" The cop pointed at Karla's house.
"Yes." The neighbor responded.
The cop went up and knocked on the door. No response. The cop knocked louder on the door, but no response. The cop noticed the door was unlocked so he went in. "Stay outside." The cop ordered the neighbor to do as he walked into her house, grabbing his gun. The cop walked into the living room, investigating everything and everywhere. Then down the hallway. Into every room in the hallway, no one was in there. The cop then reached the bedroom. He stumbled backward as he saw a skinned woman laying on the floor, the skin of Karla around her.
He looked up at the wall which read "CATCH ME IF YOU CAN" in blood.
