As I creep over to the door my knife clutched like the army camp shown me I have to thank my parent's crazy ways to get me out of the "phase" the voices are getting louder. I grab the door Handel and press it down and let the door swing slightly open so I can see outside. The lake shone bright with the now full moon the stars surrounding it I could watch it all night but I see flashlights so I close and lock it, then stalking low to the windows I shut each curtain to block sight in I creep over towards the corner and wedged myself between the table and wardrobe to keep from. Thats when I heard a man yell out "I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE COME OUT HERE OR ELSE". Else what the hell is this guy's problem and how did he know I was in my little shed? The man yells again "COME OUT GIRL OR IM COMING IN THERE AND DRAGGING YOU OUT. No No, I internally yelled I won't listen to someone who threatening me *crash*. The door flys off its hinges and lands with a thud in the middle of the room, a man stands in the doorway I stand up knife raised. I grab my phone and find the text to speech app and type out"Who are you, what do you want and leave now" the man chuckles "cat got your tongue having to use that little device" " I find the button I saved the answer to questions like this No, my parents had a surgeon take out my vocal cords because transgender folk shouldn't have a voice" next I quickly type out "Now leave or else" the man looked pissed like a kid who's toy was stolen "They FUCKING WHAT! and news flash darling, I'm not leaving unless you're leaving with me".He was so fast he was in front of me in an instant his woodsy musky scent wafted over me. His white tee was drenched in sweat showing off his six-pack and his eyes shone with yellow fire. from his waist down he was wearing all black and he had a gun on his belt. I reacted and sliced his forearm while sidestepping into the middle of the room the cut on his forearm was bleeding but somehow getting smaller. the man laughed at my attempt "little girls shouldn't play with knives".He disappeared from view that's when I feel a tap on the shoulder and a deep seductive voice saying "behind you little mouse". I spun and drove my knife into the man's belly and I run as fast as my legs could carry me leaving behind my sanctuary between the lake and the stars.
