"Into the darkness"
by C.A.
“Issac do you want to go do something fun?” Asked. “Sure.” Issac replied.
I softly whispered to Issac, “Follow me.”
I knew we weren’t supposed to be out this time of night, I just wanted to have some fun, plus I was in the house all day what’s a little walk going to do. We Snuck out the back door and went to the side door on the right side of the garage to access our shoes so we could walk to the gas station. It was a nice walk, it was dark the bright streetlights hovering over the sidewalk, the soothing sound of the insects. Everything was good we got so snacks and began walking back home, as we were on our way we noticed a strange man that looked very suspicious but once we passed him we thought nothing of him, we continued having fun on our walk home. DARKNESS, like my eyes were closed and I couldn’t open them, I was being swallowed up by the darkness.
“Issac” I called for my brother, no answer. Again, and again I call for him until finally I hear what I think is him answering me, but the sound is very faint, it’s like we were in a tunnel or something because I begin to hear echoing. I keep calling out to him until we meet, or at least I think we do, there’s no telling if it's him or not because I can’t see anything, I can only hear his voice. We continue to walk until finally we see light, we think it’s a street that has bright streetlights, we were right. It was a street that was just down the street from our house, we were so glad that we got away from whoever took us and we sprinted home. As we came into the driveway, we notice our parents are there, they see us.
“Where were you, I told you about sneaking out.” My mom Furiously yelled.
“MO-” I began, “I don’t want to hear it go inside” She demands.
I softly whispered to Issac, “Follow me.”
