Iris Smith walked through a boiler room. How had she got there? She couldn't remember so she continued to walk. She rounded a corner and was met with a horrible sight. Standing a few feet in front of her was the most ugly woman Iris had ever seen. The woman wore a red and green striped sweater and jeans. She had long black hair and black shoes. None of this was what made her look ugly. What made her look ugly was that she had horrible burns on her face. Her face looked so horrible that it took all of Iris' willpower not to look away. The woman had both of her hands behind her back. "Wh-who are you," Iris whimpered. The woman ignored her. "Iris it's so nice to finally meet you," said the woman. The woman extended her right hand to Iris to reveal that her hand had a clawed glove on it.
Iris screamed and ran away. The woman pursued her. She slashed her clawed hand at Iris and it nicked Iris' cheek. Iris screamed again and continued to run. She heard the woman's footsteps behind her and heard something else. It was a beeping noise. It was… her alarm clock. Iris woke up in a cold sweat. She had had a nightmare and it had been very terrifying and very real. She went to the bathroom and turned on the sink. She splashed some water on her face. Then she looked up at her mirror and gasped in horror. On her cheek was a small cut.
