The day before Halloween, my outfit was planned out, I was going to be matching M&M’s with my best friend. It was a classic tradition since we were babies to have matching costumes. I checked my phone and saw something interesting. On Instagram everything was about “Killer Clowns, so I went downstairs and asked my mom about these clowns.  I told her I didn’t want to go Trick-or-Treating so, instead Janice and I are going to watch scary movies. *Halloween Night* Janice and I were alone watciing movies…it was eerie …then the lock clicked and… it was a clown.

I hadn’t known that I’d been locked in, isolated from the outside until I’d seen that the door was locked. Looking through the keyhole of the door I’d seen bats and rats, scurrying through what I once thought I’d loved. Thinking of my banking job,” i was a banker until i’d lost interest.” I laugh and soon realize i’m drifting away from reality and need to find a way to pick the lock. I see 2 rusted screws and try to pick the lock, I say out loud, Finally I have hope;Getting out! Then the lock clicked and I was FREE!

It was a dark room with wooden walls. The lights were flickering like fireflies in the night sky. There was whole in the ceiling that illuminated only a little light from the stars. I could make out that the room was kind of like an rectangle like shape. I creep through like a cat on the hard stone floor. I couldn’t see him but I knew he was behind me. Then I hear footsteps coming behind me. Then the lock clicked and I broke into a run. And I could tell he did too. I fell, and he got me.

Today is my long awaited 14th birthday.I go down stairs and see if my parents have made me my breakfast which consisted of pancakes, sausage,and grits. I walk down the stairs and see my parents doing anything but cooking. I want to scream but instead I walk out the door and go to school.When I come back from school, I sit on the dirty porch and try to calm myself down.I opened the door,then the lock clicked and…… SURPRISE! My family and friends were there to celebrate my birthday. Today was the BEST DAY EVER!
