 I sprint away looking for somebody, anybody for help but strangely enough there isn't anybody in this parking lot. I finally seem to have lost him though. I'm in an empty parking slot and there is another empty parking slot right beside it. I see a car coming this way and I breathe a sigh of relief. It's full of people who seem really hyped to be at the convention and have their music at full volume. I wave at them, trying to catch their attention. One of them looks at me and I'm about to jump with joy, but he was the same guy who I was just running away from. I involuntarily scream and fall down. Then I internally curse at myself for being so dumb. The guy gets out of the car looking worried taking slow steps towards me as if I were an animal. I wouldn't be surprised if he did think I was an animal. That's when I manage to get up and the creature arrives at the parking lot. I stay there frozen in my spot and confused as ever to what's going on. The guy whips out a KNIFE??? Coated with a sheen if POISON??? And stabs the monster, killing it. He looks at me, understanding dawning on his face.I explain what had happened so far and  then he takes me home, I get cleaned up and changed. That's when another delivery arrives for me again requesting me to write a story and publish it through their company.
