I was just heading to my bed at 1:40 am to have a goodnight's sleep, after watching a web series with some popcorn and coke in my living room, when I felt the urge to empty my bladder, so I rushed to the washroom in my room. I stay in a two storey house with a living room, a kitchen and a storeroom on the first floor and two bedrooms and a drawing room on the second. After few minutes, when I was done I washed my hands, and suddenly I heard a startling loud crash followed by another terrifying noise.......like something or someone being shot, that made me cover my ears on instant, and which brought me out of my sleepy mood and my eyes shot open wide which were earlier filled with tardiness and sleep. Resisting the urge to panic, I peeped through the bathroom window to gain knowledge about the just now heard sound and what I saw was beyond my understanding ........there was a man standing sideways right infront of our backgate and he was facing the road that led to the dense forest. The man was tall, his skin tone was tanned enough, he wore a black suit, under a black coat and a black hat, he had a strange intimidating aura. Thanks to the dim lighting my dad had at the backside of our house, was I able to see the features of this man in the dark scary midnight, the man had a tattoo on his neck on the left side.......... sorry for too much observance over there.........but what can I do, the tattoo was on display itself, but I couldn't see what exactly it was , he also had a ring on the middle finger of his left hand, and trust me that ring was not an ordinary silver ring which shone bright in the moonlight, it was....it was ......UNIQUE!?.... I think I have seen it before, but I don't exactly remember where?? But it had the power of gaining once attention .....something like MAGICAL!? ..... if you beileve that there is something like magic for real cause I don't. The ring was in his left hand which held a wand like thing, wait "A wand like thin.. "....I muttered to myself realizing where I was and my eyes clocked and I jumped back a little, with my hands covering my mouth in disbelief when I saw, in the direction where the wand was pointed...... and trust me if I said a man standing in front of my backgate at midnight was beyond my understanding then what I saw now was f***ing unbelievable. The wand was pointing a lady who was lying on the road, her body was totally dripped in her own blood which was oozing out from her stomach.... probably, I did hear a sound of a bullet hitting someone. She was not moving indicating she might be dead. She was a blonde and dressed like waiteress of some restaurant. Wait!.......where is the gun? or did the man actually shot her with that wand?.......what is this!?.....a Play, are there any cameras recording this whole stuff........I tried to look for people or hidden cameras but nothing seemed to me... probably this wasn't an act and lady was really dead. On observing her she looked like normal working lady. My eyes travelled from her maybe dead body to a white coloured car, which was horribly crashed and turned upside down. If anybody was there in that car, he could've hardly survived. And did I tell you that my house is located in a very secluded area of the town where we can see trees and some domestic animals more than people...so maybe now you can understand why seeing a man at midnight infront of my backgate was not understandable and why no one else came to see, that from where the sound came from. Well, they would, if there was actually anybody who heard the sound....apart from me. And talking about my parents, they are not here, went on buisness trip yesterday for two days, leaving me and Noah my brother who is seven years younger than me, here at this place."Ughh!!" I let out a groan, I hate them at times like this. Just the thought of them made my eyes sting. And this is the most irritating part of tonight, that I'm alone, ohkayyy maybe not alone alone, but yes alone with an eight year old boy sleeping soundly, who is going to miss alot on tonight's happenings. I came back from my tour of thoughts and as I tried to comprehend what I just saw, I glanced at the lady and on their own accord my eyes travelled to the man.....DEAD!!!.....I didn't see this coming...... the man was staring back at me with fire spitting eyes, his eyes were not normal they were like small fireballs and I could bet that his face held nothing but pure anger, hatred, and devilness. On instincts I moved back and hid behind the wall so that I was no more visible to him. My throat dried up, my skin turned pale, a shiver ran through my spine, it chilled my blood and dare if I say I was not scared.......scared to death!!!! I may add. I thought that's the last day.... Oh!! no last night of my life. What the hell is going to happen to me...!!??? I thought while I mentally sobbed, where few minutes before my life was normal and happy,.... and now its gonna END!!??... Without me biding goodbyes to my family and no one would know about my tragic end.......who will take care of Noah for the remaining day? There are so many things I want to do... what about them? I don't want to die so early. Tears dwelled up in my eyes as the thoughts of death ran through my head. And the only emotions I could feel were fright, shock and numb right that moment.....Is he going to end my life for becoming an unwanted audience to his crime?? He doesnt look like he can kill somebody........ but I can't deny the fact that there is lady lying probably dead in front of my wide open eyes and no one other than him seems to be present at the site who might have done this. "Please god save me!!" Sliding my back to the wall I sat down and closed my eyes, joined my hands and kept praying to god. I tried to bribe the god with whatever I have to save me from this man..... stupid things I do, when I'm not in my senses. I kept praying and crying for what looked like lifetime but in reality it was just few minutes. Nothing happened... Just a deafening silence was there. Thinking he might have left me to the mercy of god, I took a deep breath, gathered some courage and stood on my feet, and dared to look through the window agian, he was still there, looking at time.... But this time his gaze was not intimidating, he was rather calm, the lady and the car was still there...... everything was starying to creep me out now. I looked at him, with less fear this time ..... I don't know from where this whole new confidence was building up. The moment our eyes locked, I froze.... like I was unable to move.... as if I was under his spell......... a spell that could make you do anything and everything for him. And in a blink of an eye something changed... I don't know what but something, something I can't put my finger on..... I looked at him suspicuiously and questioningly... as if I have known him very long and he'll answer me, for the act that he has pulled on in front of my bathroom window and my backyard.....so childish and stupid of me to think that. And what he did next was unbelievable, he f**king irritatingly smiled at me, as if telling me....... that I've gotten myself into a deepshit... And if his smile didn't convey that.... I surely knew it myself in what mess my curiosity has put me. Like seriously, what kind of psycho is this guy. I mean.....who crashes a car, kills a lady and gets to know that his act had an uncalled watcher.....and then just smiles at the witness. That's a whole new level of craziness rather stupidness. He smiled.... I have something for smiles, but his smile was creepy. Before I could think of anything, he raised his wand in my direction, pointing at something behind my back, I instantaneously turned, but before I could do that I felt a pang on my head like something metallic hit my head really hard and it caused me to held my head and wince in pain and eventually I collapsed. But before darkness could engulf me I saw a blurred vision of a lady, dressed in black, she was a blonde too. I tried to get up but I couldn't and I surrendered to the darkness. That's that's it.......
