"mom i don't want to be home alone!" Ami shouted. "for 3 hours? you'll be fine." | "three hours at midnight!" Ami cried. "you'll be fine. go to sleep." her mother pestered. "fine." she sighed.
once her mother left Ami called her best friend Anna over. she lived 2 minutes away so she came straight away. "what do you want at 12:30am?" Anna snapped. "make brownies with me?" Ami smiled hopefully. "really? fine!" Anna sighed and made brownies till 1am. "now can we listen to music?" Anna asked hopefully. "of course!" the danced around to 'queen' and 'girl in red' and stuff like that until around 1:30am when Anna fell asleep on the couch so Ami sat reading fan fictions. until she heard something a bang.
Ami is scared of loud noise so this scared her. she reluctantly turned of her phone, focusing on sound for a minute. she saw Anna still asleep. she decided to text her mother. maybe she was home early.
Mom •
Ami : are you home early? •
mom : no why? •
Ami : no reason •she put the phone and sighed. deciding to take the brownies out before they burn. in the kitchen she heard something that sounded like crying. from the front of the house. "Anna?" she walked there and saw Anna was gone.
Anna •
Ami : hey, where did you go? •
Anna : i'm still here. •
Ami : no. you aren't. •
Anna : alright, sorry. i went home. •
Ami : okay. could of told me. •
Ami : were you crying? •
Anna : no? i went home singing. •Ami decided not to text Anna anymore. instead texting Julia her older sister who is currently in a dorm in uni.
Julia •
Ami : hey Julia. can you come home?
Julia : at 2am on a friday?
Ami : yeah. i'm home alone and scared.
Julia : you'll be ok. i'll come home tomorrow.
Ami : and then what?
Julia : if you are alive i will buy you wendy's.
Ami : really?
Julia : yeah. so see you tomorrow?
Ami : don't stop talking!
Julia : fine just tell me why you are scared.Ami thought about what she was meant to say. she rung her sister. "hey so i am scared." Ami started. "why?" Julia asked groggily. "because i hear crying." Julia paused. "crying from where?" Ami thought. "the front door." Julia sighed. "maybe someone abandoned their baby there." Ami thought about the possibility. "why would someone leave it there at 2am?" Julia thought. "they* and maybe it was an emergency." Ami thought. "maybe. i'm not gonna open the door though." Julia took in a breath. "why is that?" Ami thought carefully. "because maybe there is a killer." Julia let out a forced laugh. "maybe. it's late. you can't leave a baby out there." Julia justified. "can't i? non of the neighbours have kids so it's not theirs." Julia groaned. "you can't. it's a baby. what if the killer kills the baby? plus just run back in after investigating." Ami took in a breath of courage. "maybe you're right. will you stay on the phone?"
"yes Ami. i'll be here if you need me." so reluctantly Ami opened the door."shit Julia!" Julia's eyes (which were closed from sleepiness) opened. "what happened?" Ami paused. breathing heavily. "the baby. it's... covered in blood. it's hand is bleeding." Julia shot out of bed. "hang on. i'm calling the police!" Ami nodded. "should i bring it inside?" Julia thought. "no." then Julia hung up to call the police.
Julia •
Ami : where did you go? •
Julia : i'm calling the police.•
Ami : okay call me when done? •
Julia : definitely! •"so what did they say?" Ami asked unsure. "to stay inside and don't touch the baby!" Julia warned. "it's hurt." Ami said. "don't. please?" Julia was crying. "fine. i'm inside without the baby. when are the police coming?" Julia was crying hard so her roommate had to take the phone. "Julia is crying." Katie replied. "you know the baby killer?" Ami thought. "no. who's that?" Katie sighed. "a crazy man. he leaves injured babies outside teens houses so when they come out he kills them." Ami made an odd noise. "Ami? are you alright?" Ami stoped. "yes. crying now. when will the police get here?"
"20 minutes. where are you?" Ami sighed, wiping her tears. "against the front door." Katie nodded. "we are coming now. your mom is staying in work." Ami felt offended but had no time for that. "is the lights on?" Katie asked. "yes. why?" "turn them of." "done." "is the door locked?" "yup!" "good. we will be there in 20 minutes. Julia is driving now." Ami nodded in relief. "good.""oh god!" Ami screamed. "what?" Katie asked, scared. "the man. he broke into the kitchen window. i'm hiding in the downstairs bathroom." Katie paused. "the one with no windows?" "yeah... it's the most sturdy." Katie sighed. "alright."
"he is running? why is an old man running?" Ami asked scared and confused. "old?" Katie double checked she heard it right. "yeah old. like 50." "Ami.. the crazy killer is only 19." "then who is it?"
"i don't know Ami. did you see him?" Ami fell to a ball in the ground. "he looked old. like mom old." she begun. "he was holding the baby. trying to help her." Katie thought as Julia sped more. "what else?" "he sounded like Scottish. like dad!" Julia gasped. "dad?" Ami smiled at the sound of her sister. "yeah dad." "what was he wearing?" "a blue sweater." "hold on someone is calling me!""hello?" Ami answered suspiciously. "hey sweetie." "dad?" "yeah it's me. where are you? let me see you." "no! wait you're home?" "yeah. i want you to meet Hanna. your sister."
