Disclaimer: okay, last chapter was horribly bland, forgive me. I hope this chapter makes up for it!
Chapter 7:
I walked back down the hotel hallway later that night. I fished through my bag and brought out my room key.
My eyes were drawn to Jay's room, 301, which I was 304; I wonder how he is doing. He hasn't talked to me for awhile, but maybe that is for the better...
But I couldn't stomach the feeling of doom that had taken root, despite my efforts to keep calm.
The thought of my threat written clearly on the wall reminded me of the threat at hand.
I slid my room key into the lock and turned it clockwise, hearing the familiar pop as I unlocked the door.
I pushed open the door, kicking off my shoes and clicking on the light; my eyes already trained on the spot where the writing is.
...I know i should be used to that same eerie writing thats been written on my walls for the THIRD time, but my breath still caught in my throat, but this time for a different reason...
"YOU DON'T WANT TO G-"
That was it.
It was only half a sentence; it wasn't finished.
There were more mud-prints on my carpet, leading down a small hallway that was next to my small kitchen, but nobody was to be seen.
My eyes widened; I had just walked in on my thief...and they were still in here...
I shook in my spot, my brain thinking of all of the worst-case-senarios and trying to figure out what to do, logically.
I tip-toed over to my-dull- knife, gripping it tightly in my right hand So tightly that may hand started to shake and my knuckles turned white.
I could see no life in the main room or the kitchen so I crept down with hallway.
I could again see mud-prints on the floor, but I couldn't tell where they were going because there wasn't just a single trail, there was multiple foot-prints, going all over the place.
I stuck close to the left wall, keeping my back to it; as I tip-toed down the hallway.
i was about 1/3 down the hallway when I saw the bathroom door cracked open and the light was on. I swallowed the lump in my throat and switched wall sides.
I snuck up on the bathroom and who ever was in it; making my foot-falls light and my breathing scarce.
My heart-beat quickened as I pressed my back to the bare wall.
I could hear my heart pounding in my ears, so loudly I was worried the thief would hear it.
I came to a slow stop right outside the ajar bathroom door.
'should I jump them..?'
No No.
'Call them out...?
No, thats even worse!
'just sneak up on them...?'
Could work.
'just hit them with the end on the knife!'
Yes! I'll do th-
My mental coaxing was stopped abruptly by a fast, sudden and heavy impact.
The wind was knocked out of my lungs, leaving me gasping for air.
I could feel an over whelming and heavy presence looming over me, pinning me on the ground were they tackled me, but black was visible in the corners of my eyes.
I whimpered and struggled under the thief over me.
"Please!" I croaked out, tears brimming the corners of my eyes, "don't!'
My voice was corse and cracked, as I looked up at my mysterious thief.
But, instead, I was meet with a mask.
It was a white mask with a pair of feminine, black lips and arching black eye-brows that were painted on the mask.
On the mask were Almond shaped black eye holes, and peeking out from those creepy, black eye holes; were a pair of shocking blue eyes staring back at my own hazel orbs.
I could tell it was a man by his hand that was now slapped over my mouth, preventing me from screaming for help.
His black hair peeked out from under his mask and I could faintly see side-burns in the weak light.
His burnt orange jacket was even too bright for my over-loaded mind, and hazed over eyes.
I was too shocked to even process, I still had my knife with me.
I tightened my hand around it and tried to raise it, but alas...it didn't work.
I saw his blue eyes harden and he swatted the dull knife out of my hand, pinning my wrist.
And the last thing I saw was the haunting white and black mask, before I felt of the impact of the butt of my own knife strike my head, and black consumed me.
Okay, this chapter was short but exciting! I am so thankful for everyone who has stayed with this story, thank you so much everyone! I hope you enjoyed this chapter and the next one should be coming soon!
