Don't Be Scared



It was December 7 my birthday. I really didn't care much for birthdays. Sure I had some fun but mines weren't the best. That same night on my 10th birthday it haunted me. I don't know why or how but every night, every second of the night it finds a way to scare me. I recently found out how it looked. I wish I didn't. It's a rat. not a giant one but more bigger than usual. And its teeth... oh god the teeth so sharp and long, it can't even close his mouth it just stays open, but the worst part about it... is how it smiles at you.. staring into your soul... I was playing Yu-Gi-Oh on my DS because of course I couldn't fall asleep because of the noises. But then I saw it. it ran across the room at super human speed! faster than any rat I knew at least. I got up to tell me parents but of course they didn't believe me as always they said "your mind is playing tricks on you." or "it was just a nightmare.". I will keep writing as long as things keep happening.

Oh god, oh god. It stays under my bed now. every 5 minutes I hear it whisper to me "got to sleep.". I'm so scared right now. I told my parents but they didn't even bother taking a look. I don't know if it wants my soul or just wants to eat me. I hate this I'm so tired but that THING keeps me up all night but I slept over and my cousins house. I at least got some rest to write this down. but I heard the front door opening at 5AM (I'm a light sleeper) and looked. nothing but the open door. I closed the door trying to immediately go back to sleep, but to no avail the rat got the best of me and I didn't sleep because the damn thing whispered to me. If I die someone read this. I want to tell you how I die. but enough negative talk. I'm really tired and I guess I'll TRY to sleep again. I probably won't though.

It ended for a little then came back. I still don't know what it wants from me. but I do know this. every night its getting stronger and bigger and more fearless. I saw it again, Its bigger and more fast. it ran from the closet under my bed. I went to sleep under my couch and go to sleep for the 100th time. It ran under there to. now it says random gibberish. I can't understand I word it says, it even more scarier though. It says it in a demonic tone. I think it feeds on my fear, and if true so far it's gotten alot. I've resorted naps during the day. Good thing it does nothing during day. Its nocturnal I think. If this keeps up I think I'll kill myself.

I know what it wants now... It wants a sacrifice. and not just a animal like a dog or a cat, it wants my parents... So I did what it wanted me to. While they were sleeping I slit their throats... I saw him running stopping for a moment smile at me then run to his meal... I don't think I can live with myself.

If you are reading this and have run into that THING, Don't be scared and it will not grow. It is scared of you at first, so don't be scared. As for me don't come looking for me. As your reading this I'm dead. I've killed myself. So just remember... Don't be scared...
