GENRE: Horror
ITEM: Exploding Ice Cream
LOCATION: Subway
With unstable hands, I bent down and peered at the still man. My shaky breath mirrored into the cold night air. I just happened to see him walk out of the subway station, carrying ice cream, and looking extremely wealthy.
And then he spotted me watching. But if he was to react to my stalkerish behaviour, he didn't. Because at that moment, he dropped his ice cream eyes widening. And at that moment I chose to blink. Regaining my vision, the man had died. My reaction was an odd one. Instead of fleeing, I rushed towards the body and dragged it towards my hideout.
After switching our clothing, his a bit big on me, I didn't bother with my hair. It was already cut short.
Grabbing the suitcase, I opened it. My heart leaped straight into my throat, for it was filled with the only necessary item I needed- money. I also grabbed his wallet.
Walking into the train station, I had expected a crowd. Yet, I didn't seem to see anyone. Frowning, I walked on towards the only thing that was there- an ice cream bar. And it was coincidentally selling the same kind of ice cream the man had in hand.
I was thinking of walking past it when a sudden feeling pulled me towards the bar. I frantically began to fight against the urge, yet a headache only resulted of it. So I gave up and began to walk towards it.
Stopping at the sign, an unnatural suspicion settled upon me.
Suddenly, the flickering image of a small boy appeared before me. Yet, I didn't question the peculiar aspect. "Ice Cream?" he asked, smiling and revealing glistening teeth. I shook my head no, and made an attempt to step back. But I only managed to trip and fall. And despite my desperate efforts to rise to my feet, I seemed to be paralyzed at the sight of him walking behind the ice cream bar and beginning to scoop a red coloured cream.
Next thing I know, my head is being tilted back by an unseen force, and then...
An explosion of pain as I slip into darkness.
