Arabella POV:

There were sirens everywhere. 

I was embracing Kate when the rescue team came and dragged me away from her. I screamed and cried, trying to get to Kate. "Kate! No! Don't leave me!" I screamed from the top of my lungs. I saw Kate being picked up and put on one of those black dead body bags. "No! KATE!" I screamed trying to break free from the woman's grip, who was holding me. I was crying when the team took Kate out of the house and the woman lead me outside as well. 

Outside was a whole lot of people, watching as the action took place. The woman let me go and faced me. "I'm sorry" she said supportively. I looked down as she put her hand on my shoulder. "It's going to be okay" she said smiling. I turned my head a little to the left, not wanting to talk. The woman took her hand away and went to the others. I lifted up my head and saw as Kate was put on the frame and rolled towards the emergency truck. I hugged myself in tears as I watched Kate's body being rolled into the truck and the doors closing. Tears rolled down my cheeks. 

I then saw Sierra running towards me. She hugged me and I hugged her, starting to cry again. Over Sierra's shoulder I saw the truck driving away. I hugged Sierra tighter. Then a policeman came up to me. "Hi, are you Arabella Woods?" he asked. I nodded. "Do you have any other relatives? Mom? Dad? Brothers? Sisters? Grandparents?" he asked. I shook my head, looking down. "Well then, since you are under the age of 18, we have to put you into a foster family or into an orphanage. Your choice" he said. I felt the anger over Jeff growing inside me. My hands clenched into fists. But I had to hold it back. "I have to think about it" I said quietly in a shaky voice. "Very well. I'll be back tomorrow" the police said. "But for now, please come to the station with us" he said. I nodded and walked towards the car. Sierra grabbed me from the arm and I faced her. "It'll be okay, I am here for you" Sierra said. I smiled a little and sat in the car. I drove away and saw Sierra in the driveway of my house.

*6 long hours later*

It was dark already when I arrived home. I arrived in front of my house again and got out of the car. I was tired and had absolutely no emotion. "Take care Arabella. I'll be back tomorrow" the policewoman said from the driver's seat. "Whatever" I replied not even turning to look at her. I walked inside the house and shut the door before locking it. As I locked it out of nowhere I screamed: "I hope you rot in fucking hell Jeff!" I had been wanting to do that the whole day. I crashed down on the couch and began crying again.

*23 minutes later*

I was scrolling through old photo albums of me and Kate. I cried and smiled at the same time. I ran my hand over a photo of me and Kate holding hands on my first day of school ever in front of the schoolhouse. Just then I heard a bang on a window. I shook it off at first. Then I heard the bang again. "That's it" I mumbled. I put the album on the couch and got stood up. I walked to the window and dragged the curtain from the front of the window. There was nothing. I shut the curtain and walked into the kitchen, grabbing a kitchen knife. 

I opened the back door and went outside. I looked around, but saw nothing. I then heard a branch crack behind the house. "Who's there?" I asked. Nobody answered. I walked down the few steps that were in front of the back door and walked towards the corner, from where I had heard the sound. I took a deep breath and stormed behind the corner. There was..... an alien??? It looked at me and striked at me. I jumped on the side, but that thing got on top of me. I growled and as it was about to dig its claws into my throat, I stabbed it in the gut, it making a screaching noise and got off of me. It's blood was everywhere and it ran away. I got up panting. "What the fuck was that?" I whispered to myself. 

I was looking up alien type of creatures on my laptop, but couldn't find any results. Then something caught my eye. There was an article called "What is the Rake?". I clicked on it and as the page opened I jumped backwards on the couch. Scar barked at my sudden movement. "Shh boy, it's okay" I calmed Scar down. I looked at the photo that was in the article and realized: that thing that attacked me was called the Rake. I searched up the mysterious creature and of course...... it was an another fucking creepypasta clown! Should've guessed. I read some info about the Rake and soon felt my eyes get heavy.

I was woken by knocking on the door. My computer was still in my lap, which I was surprised it didn't fall off. The knock went off again. I put the computer down on the couch and went to answer the door. I opened the door and standing there were two police officers. "Good morning ms Woods!" they greeted. "Hello" I said knowing what they were here for. "So ms Woods, what's it going to be? Foster family or orphanage?" the man asked. I sighed, wanting neither. "Foster family... I guess" I mumbled. "Alright. In fact, we already have one picked out for you" the woman said. "Want to meet them?" she asked. "I guess. But I'll stay into a family on one condition. I can bring my dog with me" I demanded. "That's fine" the woman said. "Come on, let's go" the man said. "Now?" I asked. "Yes now, let's go" he said. I rolled my eyes and sat in the car. 

We drove for about 10 minutes and soon made it. We got out of the car and walked up to the door. The policeman knocked on the door. A little girl  with brown long hair opened the door. "Hi, is your mommy home?" the man asked. "Yes" she said shyly. "Come in" she invited. We stepped into the house. "I'm Sally by the way" the girl said. I froze. Light pink dress, brown long hair with a pink ribbon in it and her name is Sally?! No, it couldn't be. I shook off the thought thinking that that little girl was Sally from creepypasta and went into the living room after her. "It's a bit messy in there" she said. "That's fine, as long as your mommy and daddy are in there" the man said. "Oh they are!" Sally squealed happily. 

Sally opened the door to the living room and the picture I saw was horrifying. A woman and a man in armchairs, with blood all over the place from what I assume was the girl's doing. "And now you'll be in here too" Sally said smiling. The officers backed up, but I heard gasps and looked over at the officers. The officers were stabbed in the back. Literally. And as the officers collapsed down on the ground, behind them stood............. Jeff.
