Read Me a Story

Where am I? My eyes survey the surroundings, books are stacked side by side, their spines showing the title on light brown shelves. There's five rows of books, one for each shelf. The floor, it's an odd shade of green with a few other colors infused in the fabric.

Library, that's where I am. I look around one last time. One thing sticks out. There's no people. It's vacant of life, exept me, I'm the only living being in here. My feet start moving, the sound of them echo, covering the library in the remnants of my steps.

I stop in the middle of two shelves that are across each other, my foot steps halt, and so does the echo. The lights start flickering, giving the room an ominous feel. My heart pounds, a bit more than usual. I want to get out. I creep out of the shelves, trying to find the exit, but I can't. I'm stuck here. I grow frantic and start running. I run past several shelves.

A sobbing girl in a light yellow dress, I creep toward her, reaching my hand toward her shoulder. She turns around and looks at me "Where am I?" she quivers. "I don't know," I reply, she cries harder than before "What's your name." "Sarah," she sniffles. "What about you." "I'm Mia." I answer. She shows a slight smile, and holds my hand. We start walking, and she smiles "Read me a story." she smiles. I look around, but there's no children books, only books with a few hundred pages.

I look around some more, no children books. "Sorry," I say " I can't find a book for you." " What about there." she points me in a direction. There it is, a single picture book. I grab it and open it. The room suddenly shakes, I look at Sarah, her eyes are pure black. I'm paralyzed. She walks towards me, her foot steps echoing, until she reaches me. She giggles, it's so high pitched it hurts my ears. There's no library, it's dark, just like her eyes. My vision blurs as she gets closer, I can't see. I'm completely blind. My thoughts hault, I can feel her hand, it's ice cold, but I can't see it. What is she doing?. I feel different, My hearts not pounding. I feel cold. " Now you can play with me." she says
