Sinister

Silence. Nothing but heavy breathing could be heard.

Shivering from fear sat the little girl, pushing herself against the cold wall behind her.

Hoping for her parents, her big brother or anyone else to come and rescue her.

"Bam…bam…bam…!" loud footsteps could be heard, coming nearer and nearer up the stairs.

She held her breath although her lungs have long been screaming for air.

In her hurry she hadn'd been able to close the door entirely so a small shaft of light made its way in the minor storeroom.

A giant shadow let the light disappear for a few seconds.

She started wimpering again. Oh how often had she already done that that day?

She hoped, prayed that he or better it wouldn't find her.

Luckily it went on, the footsteps getting more quiet each second that passed.

It's quite funny. Every person with at least a whiff of intelligence would have looked into something like a storeroom if he was searching for a little girl that hided herself.

Well no one said that scary, big men are smart, right?

Quietly, she debated with herself wether she should take the chance of the best being away and run or staying and keeping on waiting.

When she made her choice she sneaked out of the room, creeped down the stairs and ran out of the house to the street.

She laughed, her sweet petite lips curving up.

She started jumping around like a drunken kangaroo.

Every reasonable person would have run to the police and reported every oh so little detail about intruder but for a little girl she was just able to enjoy her victory and squeal in delight.

After a while she got tired from her victory dance and sat on the green soft grass of her garden, savoring the cold breeze of the autumn night.

She saw the car of her parents turn into their street. She happily waved at them.

Lost in her thoughts she didn't realize the scrubby creature behind her, tickling her small ear with its harsh breath.

Chills ran down her spine, she felt something cold touch her back, patting it slightly.

And then she heard a voice, a loud, brutal voice. If someone would have asked the little girl how it sounded she would had answered the voice of the devil himself.

"Happy Halloween!"
