Sheila sat up straight in bed, the clock read 7:00 am but it was still dark outside. Her alarm clock didn’t alarm, she was late. She had to have a shower she’d been sweating all night more from nightmares than heat. After her shower she felt a little more like herself. Seven thirty why it is still so dark outside this was started to be a very strange morning. It was going to be one of those days. Dressed and with her lunch in tow she grabs her keys and rushes out the door one thing she noticed when outside was a deafening silence and still so dark. She stood there for a moment a little freaked out remembering her nightmares, hands coming out the dark grabbing her and pushing into its darkness. She wished she would have let JoJo spend the night like she wanted to.

It was so dark outside and there were no lights on no streetlights no lights on at any of the neighbors houses this wasn’t right something is wrong. She clicked her keypad to unlock her car door nothing not a sound she was starting to get scared she tried unlocking the car door manually with her key the lock would not turn the door would not open. At this moment she could feel her heart in her throat she screamed out, not a sound she could not her own voice. She screamed out again in fear. Hands coming out of the dark grabbing her and pushing her into it’s darkness.

Sheila sat up straight in her bed, the clock read 7:00 am but it was still dark outside.
