It was three thirty, school was finishing for the day and Nine year old Kylie Anderson was waiting in the playground for her friend Lacey McCormick who arrived out of the building a few moments later.

"What took you so long? " Kylie asked in a fed up tone as Lacey arrived at her side "I've been waiting for ages."

"Sorry I was just helping Mrs. laverick put some stuff away in the stock cupboard" Lacey replied as the two girls began making their way out of the school grounds and down the street "hey, have you ever seen these videos on you tube called Don't hug me, I'm scared?"

"No" Kylie replied, giving Lacey a confused look "what are they supposed to be anyway?"

"Well basically, it involves these three puppet characters living together and in each episode they get taught about different things, it starts off pretty kid friendly at first but then things start getting weird and creepy, but apart from all that it's pretty interesting to watch" Lacey explained as Kylie looked at her with a confused expression "they released the new one yesterday but I suggest that you watch the first five first before watching the new one so that you get an idea of what is going on."

"Okay I guess I could check them out" Kylie replied. The two girls continued walking until they reached Lacey's house and after bidding each other goodbye, Kylie headed to her own house which was just up the road from Lacey's house and as soon as she got through the door, a strong smell of curry hit her nose and the girl wondered into the kitchen to find her mum preparing a curry dinner.

"Hello there you" Kylie's mum chuckled as the Nine year old sat down at the kitchen table "how was school today?"

"It was okay, same as always" Kylie replied with a shrug "hey mum, can I borrow the laptop tonight, Lacey told me about these videos and she wants me to check them out."

"Now hang on a minute young lady" her mum said firmly "do you have any homework to do tonight?" With a sheepish grin, Kylie nodded and her mum told her that she can do her Homework after her tea and then she could use the laptop.

"Thanks mum" Kylie replied and once she had finished her tea, done her Homework, the little girl took the laptop from the small office that her dad used for his work and took it up to her room which she shared with her Thirteen year old sister Candace who was currently over at a friend's house so it meant that Kylie had some time to herself to watch these videos that Lacey had told her about.

"Okay" she muttered to herself as she loaded up You tube "let's see what all these videos are about." Kylie then typed in Don't hug me I'm scared in the search bar and of course the first five videos came up as well as the new one but there was one particular video that caught her eye, it was one which featured all six episodes.

"Wow the entire series in one video" she said to herself "I think I'll watch this one, save me from changing from one video to the next." As soon as Kylie hit the play button on the video and set it into full screen, the room suddenly plunged into darkness causing the girl to squeal. The only light in the room was the light from the laptop.

"Mum, Dad?" the girl called out into the darkness only to get no response but thinking that maybe there was a power cut or something, she simply shrugged it off and turned her attention to the video which was on a black screen with blood red letters appearing slowly on the screen.

HELLO VIEWER, YOU ARE ABOUT TO WATCH THE ENTIRE SERIES OF DON'T HUG ME I'M SCARED

"What?" Kylie asked, staring at the message written in blood red on the black screen "is this supposed to be the intro, maybe yeah, it's the intro to the video, don't be so silly." However she was proved wrong as another message appeared on the screen and it seemed a little more creepier than the first.

BUT THAT SOUNDS A LITTLE BORING DON'T YOU THINK, WOULDN'T IT BE FUN IF YOU WAS ACTUALLY IN THE SHOW ITSELF? HE HE HE HE HE HE HE HE.

"No" Kylie yelled at the screen "what is going on, what kind of video is this?" The little girl sat frozen in fear as more creepy messages began appearing on the screen and the creepiest thing about them was, it was that all of them had her name in them, like the video knew who she was.

"What?" Kylie squeaked after reading the final message "how did they know I had curry?" In a state of panic, the little girl tried to switch off the laptop but it didn't seem to be working so she had to watch as the final message appeared on the screen.

OH, LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE IS HAVING A BAD DREAM, THIS IS ALL A BAD DREAM KYLIE, OR IS IT?.

After the last message appeared, Kylie heard something at the side of her, something that sounded like heavy breathing and shaking, the girl turned her head to where the sound was coming from only to see a yellow puppet like hand stretching out towards her and with a squeal, she jumped up from the bed, ran to the door and tried to open it only to find it jammed shut.

"LET ME OUT, MUM, DAD, OPEN THE DOOR" she yelled as she banged on the door "SOMEONE LET ME OUT." There was still no response and Kylie was beginning to feel really dizzy that she fell to the floor and was slowly beginning to lose consciousness as she heard the heavy breathing coming towards her slowly and creepily.

"Someone, help me" she whispered, fighting to stay awake as the heavy breathing to closer and closer until it was right behind her and as she fought to stay awake, she slowly turned her head around to see a tall dark figure standing over her and the long yellow puppet arm reaching out to her and that was the last thing she saw before finally succumbing to unconsciousness.
