DARK SHADOWS

Chapter 1

It was around midnight and a 16 years old girl talking with her friend on phone.

"I wasn't scared about being alone tonight but I was feeling like someone is also with me" she said looking at the empty house.

"You've watched a lot of horror films these days. Stop thinking and go to sleep" her friend told her on phone.

"Mom and dad told me that they would be coming back in morning, i've been home alone before also but I don't know why I was feeling like this this time" she said.

"Don't worry nothing will happen if you still feel like you've been watched call the cops I will be in your home tomorrow early morning" her friend said.

Rain start pouring heavily and power went off "Close all the doors and sleep" her friend told and disconnect the call.

"Maybe I'm over thinking" that girl told her self and checked all the doors and windows before heading off to her bedroom lightening the candle.

She took a sharp knife from kitchen and kept on beside table for just in case.

She laid on bed covering herself with blanket.

Before she slipped into her sleep she hears someone humming it was not any other movie music this was different like hypnotic and wanting to hear more. She got panic instantly and sat up.

"Who is that" she shouted with a shaking voice. That humming was coming close to her room.

She turn on the torch light "who——i—is—-tha—-t" she was shaking with fear.

Suddenly her phone buzzed with a message from unknown number.

"You're gonna kill yourself"

There was words where written on it. She start shaking with fear.

She took that sharp knife from bedside table and hold it tightly in her shaking hand.......

"Hello" he said shook his hands with her she smiled nervously "actually I—" before he could say something his phone start ringing.

He excused himself and went outside leaving a girl and confused the confused girl.

Harsha pov :

"I don't think Vamsi will do it alone. I will give you the address of the expert forensic doctor meet him for this case he is well known forensic expert" sir said.

I was driving back to my home I was very sleepy and didn't realise that some car was wrongly coming my side.

I turn the steering aside pressing the break it stopped with screeching noise. I took deep breaths and got down from car and walked to the opposite car.

"Hey come outside. Don't you know how to drive" I shouted thudding window. Slowly window slid down saw a girl who is closing her eyes tightly.

She open her eyes slowly "I am sorry I didn't do it intentionally" she said got down from car.

"If anything happen your sorry won't cover the damage" I said glaring at her "I told you sir I am not done it intentionally" she said raising her voice.

"Intentionally or not but you done wrong" i said she glared at me "hello mister. Whom you think you are talking. Do you have any idea who's sister I am" she said placing her hands in her hips.

"Do you know who I am" I asked her crossing my arms "who" she asked me raising her eyebrows.

"I'm the sister of the famous forensic expert gourav" she said proudly raising up her chin. I shook my head.

Before I could say anything my phone start ringing. I saw caller ID it was my mom.

"Mom i am coming" I said over phone looking at this girl. I cut the call "tell your brother to meet me. If you not I will myself meet him" I said taking her phone.

I typed my number and give back her phone "it was my number give it to him" I said her eyes widened and jaw dropped with shock.

I walk back to my car and drove away to my home. Thinking about this case, we don't know whom did this but I don't think it was just a normal case.
