"I had truly been left alone to die"
"It felt as though I was coming back to an old friend, a place where I called home; the place I was safe. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case."
A first person narrative that takes you on the short adventure inside the previous home of the Connors family. Donovan Connors makes his way about the home, on his search for his belongings and intending to leave this house as simply as that.
However, the monsters that lurk inside are not willing to let him go; they aren't willing to pass up their chance of escaping the prison that they've been trapped in for so long.
~';'~ Note from the Author ~';'~
This story I have had forever in my imagination; in my head. I had not come around to go forth and make it come alive until now and I truly felt proud in this story and I wanted to share it with everyone.
This is my first ever piece of writing that I've ever written in first person, I've always been afraid to write in first person, because I never tried to. As I was eager to tell this tale, I thought telling it in first person would be the best fit.

There's a strangely unsettling new student at school, and he can't sleep at night. The nightmares and insomnia from his anxiety are bad enough.
