Don't be afraid of the dark. Be afraid of what is in the dark!
"Help me it's got me it's going to eat me. Help!
Help! Help!" Billy said screaming at the top of his lungs. Billy's mom came running or almost sleepwalking into the room followed by Billy's sister Johann and Billy's Dad.
"Why'd you wake us up in the middle of the night? I had a good dream going. Johann said.
"Sorry. A monster was attacking me. Then it tried to eat
me," Billy said.
"Billy grow up. You're 13 years old. There's no
monsters outside or under your bed that are trying
to eat you. Monsters aren't real. I told you that before Billy," Mom said.
" Then why does Skillet sing about monsters in their song Whispers in the dark or the song called Monster? Billy asked, confused.
" It's just a cool song that Skillet thought up. There's no monsters. Go to bed." Mom said.
The three walked out of the room and Johann turned around at the last second and did her best monster expression and it sent Billy cowering under his pillows. Johann walked away laughing as if she couldn't stop.
Just then a shape crossed the street and went into the woods. Billy could've sworn it was the Dog man.
"My parents and Johann both agree that monsters and aliens don't exist but we both kow the truth right?" Billy said looking at a small person that was entering the bedroom.
"Yeah! Monsters aren't real. What a bunch of holagens." The voice said.
"It's okay. They don't know who you are, what you are and that you're here." Billy said as the thing was making its way up the side of the bed.
"We're okay." Billy said wrapping back up in covers.
"Nothing can scare us." Billy said a liitle hesitantly in his voice.
"Got that right bro!" A small voice said from the dark.
"Can you please go and turn off the lights?" Billy said still still warmly wrapped up in his covers.
"Was that a question because I know that I can go and turn off the lights but I don't know if you know that I can turn off the lights." The small voice said from the shadows almost having to shout to be heard being how small he was.
"Sorry. May you please turn off the lights?" Billy asked nicely this time.
"Okay, okay! I'm just saying. I don't need to get up. I can turn off the lights just as easily by just standing here on your bed," Gizmo said clapping his hands together and the lights went off.
Ever since the exeprience Billy and his family mainly his parents bought and got the clapper. Billy convinced them to get it.
Johann thought it was a terrible idea but who is she to stand in the way.
Let us start at the beginning were it all started. It was a Monday morning in the middle of summer in the middle of May. It was a nice beautiful day. The sun was out and shinning. The sky was crystal clear. Today was a perfect day for Billy, because he was going over to his friends house. He was going to stay the week with Joey. This time though his parents weren't going to be home for that week, which meant party hardy. The day finally came and Billy couldn't wait. This morning though Billy could
hardly contain himself. He woofed down his cereal
and couldn't stop talking about going over almost to the point where his sister would've cut out his voice box. She would've successfully succeeded if it weren't for Billy's mom that stopped her. Billy would also nonstop keep running to the clock to see what time it was and how much time was left. Billy did it so much that Johann took down the clock and smashed it on the ground. When it was finally time to go Billy went into his parents room and jumped on their bed.
" Settle down Billy. Sit down by the door and have patience," Billy's Dad said. For the rest of the time Billy sat down in one position, but Johann was trying to get him riled up. Johann would say things like
'Billy, you're scared of the dark even with family here. When you leave there's no one going to be here to sing you a lullaby, tuck you in, or pat the bed in case you wet the bed because of have seeing a "MONSTER." Johann said exaggerating the last word monster with a impersonation of the dog man. Billy jumped up at Johann and tried to strangle her but Johann being bigger easily pushed or in this case shoved Billy down. Finally Billy's dad said,
"The car is started. Time to go." Billy was thinking finally no more of Johann. Or so he thought. Walking out the door Billy turned around said bye to everybody, but to Johann he stuck his tongue out and closed the door in a hurry. Once Billy got to Joeys house and out of the car the sun was still out and the weather was still warm. The Weather Forecast said that later this week there's going to be high winds.
What could be worse than that? Billy said. Well
there could and would. Once Billy got inside Joey's house it
was all black. Second Billy flipped the light switch on but there was still no power. Billy thought this was a prank of Joey's doing. How could it be though? Third Billy heard deep hoarse laughter coming from the kitchen. Fourth pots were falling and cupboard doors were flinging open. Finally Billy heard the fire, but it wasn't coming from the living room where the fire was supposed to be,
"Huh this is weird," Billy thought. I'm in the living room and the fire place is supposed to be in the
living room. Finally Billy heard the voices in the
kitchen calling his name saying he's the one. Should
we get him to. Yes he's the one we have been waiting
for so long. Let's get him another said. Billy pulled
out his BB gun loaded it and crept forward silently
towards the kitchen. Every once in a while Billy kept
on turning around expecting to see someone hiding behind and then lunge at him but their wasn't. I think Johann was right when she said Billy wouldn't stand a chance in the dark without people, but Billy couldn't give up and let her win. The laughter and talking was getting louder when he was getting closer. Billy got to the kitchen and asked to show yourselves. Instead a shelf fell over onto the floor and broke. I didn't ask to show yourshelfs. I asked to show yourselves. In return their was more laughter. Billy found the pots and picked them up and put them back up where they belonged. Billy heard laughter behind him and whispering. Billy turned around but saw no one. Billy looked up and from side to side but saw no one still. "Show yourself," Billy said.
"He acts so brave but is so puny," someone said. "You think you can just bombard into hear and scare us with your baby toys. Puny infant. You don't get it you never find us we find you someone else said laughing cruelly.
Billy kept on turning around and saying whose there but heard no reply and saw no one. Then Billy felt a hand on his shoulder, but he turned around and saw no one. This is getting creepy he thought. Finally the monsters sensing that Billy was getting freaked out decided to show themselves. Billy turned around again and saw this weird person and a name tag was forming on his shirt and it said in big red letters the doom. He also had a sword a gun that were both pointed directly at him. Everywhere shapes like The Doom and others were forming surrounding Billy.
See to believe
Billy knew only one thing. He had to get out of there and fast. Billy turned around and started bucking it upstairs to the rooms. Billy heard the Doom and the others behind him gaining on him and The Doom saying,
"Tonight I will gather an army and I will attack. You cannot kill us but we can and will kill you. We will demolish you and capture you and you will be one of us. A creature of the dusk," the doom said.
