Halloween Night

I heard the footstep getting closer and closer down the hallway as I ran. It was like if he was catching up to me. The hallway felt longer then it should have been. It frightened me to the point wear I couldn't feel my legs, as if they have gone numb. Even though I couldn't feel my legs I knew they were taking me to a safer place in the hallway of many doors.

Tonight of course was Halloween. I was never to fond of this Holiday. I always had nightmares of this night since I was ten. Scary nightmares. Tonight felt like a replay of my dream. I was running from the man that would kill me in the end but it never got to that part in my dreams. I always woke up before he killed me with that bloody chainsaw of his. And they always say if you die in your dreams you die for real. I shuddered at the thought, but that thought wasn't compared to the fear that I held now.

The fear of dying wasn't a big deal for me. I wasn't afraid to die...No...I was afraid of how I would die. Would I die of his chainsaw like in most of my dreams? Would I die by him stabbing me to death with something? Would I die of fear when I see him in the face? I couldn't answer my questions since I didn't know. I was too scared to look behind me.

I couldn't hear his footsteps anymore and I told myself to slow down. My legs disagreed with me though. They kept running in the opposite direction to the exit doors up ahead. I felt relief as I was getting closer and closer to the doors. My arm started to stretch for them. I was only about fifteen feet away when he appeared. My legs stopped and I screamed bloody murder. I couldn't move. I was paralyzed with fear like I had been before, only that had been just in my legs. This was my whole body now and I couldn't move now.. My instinks told me to run, run as fast as I could but my body was too frozen to move.

His very dark brown eyes looked murderess. His brown hair was all messy with blood in it from his other victims that he killed not that long ago. Dry blood was on his tanish skin. His black t-shirt that said "ACDC" on it was torn a little and had blood splatters on it. His blue jeans the top have was covered in darker blood. As did his chainsaw in his hands. Blood dripped off the blades of it. He smirked at me.

"Hello Jane." He said sweetly."It's been a while sweet heart." He took a step forward and my body responded in to a deep run away from him."YOU CAN'T GET AWAY FROM ME!" I heard him yell.

I ran into the nearest room that I found opened. I hid in the science room closet. My breathing was rapid and my heart was pounding trying to get out of my rib cage. I backed up against the wall in the closet. The closet had a lot of dust in it but nothing in here other than a couple of lab coats just in case. My head snapped to the door of the closet. I heard him come into the science room door. His heavy foot steps pounded against the floor with each step he took. My breath was caught in my throat. My body was stiff again.

I heard his hand on the closet door knob turn. I was once again shaking. He had me were he wanted me now. I knew it. I don't know why I had gone into the science room now, when my dream followed this same sequence every time. I could have avoided it but I didn't. When he opened the door all the way I could see he was mad.

I slid to the ground and landed on my butt. Tears streamed down my eyes. I never said good bye to my mom this morning in the car. My dad was in war in Iraq and I knew I would never see him again. He was my best friend. My friends that this murderer had killed earlier while we were in drama club after school today. He was supposed to be a substitute not some murderer right? I shook my head and my tears stopped when I heard his chainsaw in hand came on with a roar.

He laughed. "This would have been easier if you hadn't run." He said as he kept on taking steps. My breath was gone out of me now. I couldn't breath or move. I couldn't think straight.

The roaring of the chainsaw came closer to the side of my body. I didn't have the will to move. I felt the piercing pain to the side of my body. I screamed in pain as the chainsaw ripped through me slowly. Blood fell to the ground, splattered on the walls and the white clean lab coats. My body felt limp and my head started to spin. I screamed again when I felt the chainsaw hit my spine. I huge crake was heard and he laughed as his victory. I was numb I couldn't move anything. I felt my life disappear into never ending darkness. The last thing I heard was his evil cruel laughing as my soul left my body.

Dancer: Thanks for reading it. It was for my English assignment for Halloween too(and one of the reasons why it's short. It was to be shorter then this but I wrote it longer.). So I hope you enjoyed it and were a little creeped out like the rest of my friends. Please review.
