As I stare at the beast, my heart races faster than any one could imagine. I'm sure this isn't healthy, but then again, in this world, it's probably one of the healthiest diseases there are.

I want to run. To get far away from this thing as possible. I want to slam this door and just cry. I know I can't though. I can't go back after this. My parents won't forgive me. They're probably going to think I'm dead… Just like their youngest daughter. I'll leave them a note, saying I'm alive. But for how long will I be? How long will I make it out there? Not long probably…

I can't go back in. I slowly walk back into my room and grab my camera. "This is it. Time to face it…" I whisper to the camera.

I walk back out of the room, and shut the door confidently, and silently, behind me. The creature is still on the ground. Making gross hissing and growling noises.

I pull out my gun. It's time to end this. Although. If I shoot this, my parents will wake up.. I better put my gun away.

"Alright, beast, come at me." I whisper, and pull out my cross bow. I take a step towards the creature, and it growls louder. I'm doing everything I can to be quiet, although, I'm having such difficulties. I'm terrified.

I take another step towards the creature, and it growls louder. I raise the cross bow to my eye, and aim the shot perfectly. Right between its glowing, red eyes. I'm about to pull the trigger. That's when I notice the creature is standing up tall. It starts running towards me. I'm shaking like crazy, now. It's running so fast. I have no idea what to do. I think I just dropped my cross bow. I don't really know. I'm too numb.

I start stumbling backwards. I need to get out of here or I'm going to die. It's a few feet in front of me now. Running. Sprinting. At me. I finally turn around and start running.

I'm running. As fast as I can. I tumble over furniture and other things that I can't see at this late hour. It's too dark. My flashlight guiding my way. I want to look back, but I can't. I'm too scared. There's a sharp turn coming up, I remember it. At the end of this hallway is the stairs. If I can make it up them, I can get to the bathroom. I can lock the door, and maybe I'll have a chance. Although, it will know I'm in there. It will call others.

I don't stand a chance if it calls others. I'm surprised they can hear me now as it is. I'm so loud. My camera is hitting the back of my leg. It hurts.

I'm at the stairs now, and I'm going to stop and look back.

NO. BAD IDEA. IT''S RIGHT BEHIND ME.

I'm climbing the stairs as fast as I can. I'm out of breath. I'm going to die.

I make it to the top of the stairs before the creature does. Sharp turn to the left now, and u0p another flight of stairs. I make it to the top and turn to the r-

OH SHIT.

I hit something. I tripped over it. I hit my head. My leg is bleeding I'm pretty sure.

I'm in so much pain… Someone, please help me… I can't move…

I know there's no one around though. They're all dead.

And soon I'll be one of them.

I see it coming for me.

It's at my feet now.

I dropped the camera. Somewhere at the top of the stairs.

It's at my chest now. I can hear it breathing heavily. Its mouth is black. Its breath is absolutely disgusting. Its teeth, coming for my throat.

Camera's POV

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..."

Yeeeeep, that's it for this chapter. Sorry for it being so short. I just thought there needed to be more suspense for this little scene here.

Don't worry; I'll probably add another chapter at some point tonight.

Let me know how you liked this chapter! And thank you to those who commented!
