Walking through the abandoned high school hallways was even scarier at night, especially with the news that had gone all around about two teens who were found dead in our school parking lot three weeks ago. To this day the killer is still on the run, nowhere to be found. Quickly I head towards my car and at the same time feel a cold shiver go up my spine, I try to ignore it. I realize its a Friday the day when most teens head out to the cabin hidden deep within the woods to have some fun. My friend Grace and brother Caleb were going so why shouldn’t I ?
Heading towards the cabin I keep remembering about that tingly sensation on my back giving me the chills it felt as if a spider had crawled all over me. ” No , just ignore it” I kept telling myself over and over. When I returned to my five senses | realized I had already passed the cabin, quickly I made a U-turn and coincidentally the car behind me did too. It didn’t bother me much until after having driven for 10 minutes the same car was trailing me! I realized the driver was following me. What felt like the longest drive of my life had finally come to an end when I reached the cabin. I made a left turn and the car was no longer there.
Windows tinted and no one to be seen in the car, “First the shiver up my spine and now this car following me,”| thought. I kept telling myself I was the one who was overreacting but in the back of my head the feeling was still there. I arrived at the cabin and I immediately spot my brother who was covered with the unpleasant, pungent smell of alcohol. Caleb’s drunk again, and I’m going to be the one who has to take care of him when he becomes woozy and begins to imagine things like last week. I don’t bother to pay too much attention to Caleb, Grace and I met up and begin to talk about school and the situation of the teens found dead.
I don’t tell her about what was bothering me, I figured with all the fun i’d have tonight I would soon forget about it. I was having so much fun with my friends after a while I recall I have to call my mom to advise her we were gonna be home later than usual. I notice | left my purse in my car, as I rush to get it I see the passenger door open. Shocked and confused I rapidly grab my purse while looking behind me, and rush back to the cabin. Right away! confront my brother into telling me what he wanted with my car.
Caleb is remarkably confused, we both go back to my car to check its surroundings when suddenly… horrifying scream came from within the cabin. The scream still ringing in my ear uneases me. I push through the crowd whom are surrounding some sort of unfamiliar object. Through pushes and shoves i finally get through and right in front of me i see the body swinging left to right a puddle of blood *drip drip drip* The body is hung in a tree effortlessly with a type of rusted rope. Grace is crying uncontrollably and others in shock. Quietness surrounds the atmosphere but suddenly the the sound of two knives put together sliding against each other side by side as if being sharpened fill the air.
The crunching of leaves begin to get louder and louder, closer and closer. we all turned towards the noise and he emerges from the forest slowly. He was covered in all black with his hands stained of blood, his face was burnt unlike others, his eyes were filled as if hungry for death. Everyone went their separate ways running to save their lives some towards the cabin others toward the woods. Caleb and my first instincts are to run for my car, Grace get lost in the crowd full of commotion. Spotting my car from a distance my car door is open .. again. Caleb and i begin to slow ourselves down walking toward the open door.
Afraid and confused we reach full view of the inside of my car and I clearly see grace with her throat slit open and both eyes carved out. Caleb and i come face to face with the killer. The killer starts toward caleb with a knife and I strategically attack the killer from the back. He throws me down and pushes caleb to the ground. the killer grabs his knife and tries to stab Caleb’s chest. This tension begins to rise inside of me and I can’t let him take my brother from me. I grab his other knife and without thinking / stab it right through his stomach. Caleb pushes the body away while I dial 911.
Everything is a blur after that the police arrive and question if we knew the man, it wasn’t long before they discovered that same guy was the one that killed the two teens found in our high school lot. After that they sent us home giving us no information on the body whatsoever. Arriving home all the lights are dark which meant mom was still at her manager meeting. I was exhausted,weak, and tired of all the sirens blaring in my ears. I open the door and lay on my bed half awake, silence filled the air… and suddenly from the kitchen comes the sound of two knives put together sliding against each other side by side as if being sharpened.
