One shot tell me what you think.


His legs were moving, his lungs blazing, and his face contorted in terror. He didn't know why he was terrified, but all his senses were telling him to run, get away. This feeling, it confused him, but he had heard of the cat and what curiosity did to it.

He continued to run, past a trash can, through the alley scraping his shoulder and leaving a deep gash on his left arm. He stumbled, but he continued on, he looked back and he saw them. Their shadows carrying knives and pitchforks, faces in manic grins with teeth shaped like daggers.

He held his hand to his shoulder trying to stop the bleeding, he was getting dizzy, and he stumbled. He got up and surged forward, he wanted desperately to be safe in his apartment, away from these monsters. He wanted to be held and to be coddled in his mother's arms or held back protectively by his father, but he didn't have them, he would never know their personalities or see their faces.

He almost tripped over a fallen trashcan, and he could hear them now. They were almost on top of him, their eyes red and their voices felt like fire in his ears.

Desperately he took a left at the end of the alleyway, and he closed his eyes. When he finally opened them he felt his heart drop. There right in front of him was a huge stone wall blocking his escape, he felt terror rising in his throat and he let loose a terrible scream. He looked back and he saw their shadows moving, their hands carrying weapons that hacked and pierced at invisible enemies.

He backed up against the wall hoping that somehow it would disappear and he could escape. He waited and watched as their shadows moved closer, they were almost upon him. He held his breath, they were just about to turn the corner.

What he saw froze him to the bone, two giant terrifying eyes bore into his skull. They were gigantic, they were green with a mixture of orange, the pupils were slits that reminded him of cats. The eyes narrowed then relaxed toying with him, but then he saw it. A mouth formed beneath the eyes and it smirked at him, he gulped and the mouth opened revealing monstrous teeth that could rip and pierce anything it wanted.

He panicked, desperately he tried to claw and climb his way over the wall, but the more he tried the taller the wall seemed to get. He looked back and the teeth were getting closer, he tried to climb again but the walls kept on getting higher. He looked back and he felt his heart almost rip out of his chest, because it was beating so rapidly.

He shrank back in fear and just as the teeth were about to tear into him he let loose a horrible scream.

His eyes were wide, he looked around the room and realized he was in a hospital room. He opened his mouth, nothing came out, he closed it again and stared wide eyed at his hands. They weren't dirty or bloodied like they were supposed to, he checked his body and almost ripped off his shirt trying to check for the gash that he had obtained. It wasn't there, and he let out a huge sigh of relief.

It had only been a dream, but it had seemed so real. It was as if something horrible was in him, chasing him and torturing him in his sleep. He didn't know why he was in the hospital, but he was simply too tired to care, he laid back down and closed his eyes.

Sleep came peacefully to him this time, and in the morning he'd probably forget about the whole thing. The eyes however, did not forget and they would continue to haunt him until the days when he wasn't afraid of them anymore to care.

He let a smile form on his face and let the cool soothing air into his lungs. His heart relaxed and he let the black void take him.
