The observer watched a cute little blonde haired, brown eyed girl wearing a summer outfit consisting of a white tee shirt with a blue & yellow floral pattern with lace frills on the neck & arms, a pair red shorts and red athletic shoes as she approached a six foot high fence of redwood planks. The observer could see that the girl was thoroughly enjoying the relatively new privilege of being able to walk to and from her friends homes by herself. She was taking a shortcut through an empty lot on her way home from playing at her friends house when she noticed that she was behind another of her friends house. She decided to see if the friend who lived there was home and peeked through a knot hole in the wooden fence unaware of the fact that her every move, even her thoughts are being watched by an invisible observer. The watcher knowing what she will see tells her not to look but the girl looks any way. The observer could see and feel the shock and surprise at what the girl saw when she peered through the knot hole. The observer could also feel the intense curiosity that was kindled in the girl by what she had seen.
As the girl moved to the virtually invisible opening in the fence that is hidden by bushes on both sides of the fence. The girl and her friends call this their secret passage way. As she started to make her way through the opening the observer called to her telling her to turn away and go home instead. The observer did not want to follow the girl because she already knew what was on the other side of the fence but had no choice but to follow. As soon as the observer was through the fence she could see the typical suburban backyard of a typical tract house. There was a small patio off the the back of the house. There was the usual patio furniture set up on the patio. What was not usual was the darkness on the patio. A darkness that was unaffected by the bright summer sunshine coming down from the clear blue sky. It was a palpable blob of darkness waiting on the patio as if it were luring its prey into a deadly trap. The observer also knew that the little girl couldn't see the darkness for what it was like she could.
As the little girl approached the darkness with the observer following closely behind she saw both her own reflection and the little girl's in the mirror like finish of the spotlessly clean sliding glass doors. The observer could see her own long blond hair and brown eyes, white tee shirt and form fitting red pants. She could also see that she looked exactly like an older version of the little girl. Which was true because she was the little girl only 4 years older. She also knew that her younger self couldn't see or hear her but that didn't stop her from trying to keep the little girl from doing what she knew was gonna happen. Just like the observer knew what was going to happen, when the little girl was in arms length of the being of evil and darkness. Her heart seemed to skip a beat as her younger self reached out and touched it. As the little girl touched the darkness he observer saw it nibble away at the little girl's innocence and plant a seed of darkness in her soul.
As the observer watched time began to speed up and the little girl returned again and again to the darkness. At first she returned out of curiosity but later it was out of fear. Each time the darkness would nibble away at the girl's soul. Sometimes there were more than one blob of darkness that came to eat away at the girls innocence and her soul. Then all of a sudden there was a period where there was no darkness and the little girl, who was now a couple years older, seemed to be happy for the most part. Then all of a sudden the darkness returned with many others like it to finally finish consuming the girl's innocence and the observer started to scream. As the dark beings engulfed and swallowed the girl the observer continued to scream. Suddenly Lizzie McGuire woke up drenched in sweat with her heart pounding frantically in her chest.
