The Pack

                    I walked down to the basement but something was wrong...
         

            As I walked down the creaky, old, rotting stairs I felt a chill go down my spine. I shook it off as I usually did, as I continued down the steps I stepped on the wrong step it creaked and I jumped. I hated going into the basement but it was my turn to get the dog food. I was still thinking why we didn't keep it some where other than the basement so I didn't notice the strange, green glow that came from under the stairs as I went to the shelves were the food was. As I went back up the stairs I was careful not to step on the loose step but as I skipped it, it creaked anyway, I sprinted up the rest of the stairs and as I slammed the door shut there was a scream.

            The scream sounded like it was coming from the basement. I was about to open the door when my dog started wimpier, so I went to feed her and forgot about the basement. After feeding the dog I went to find my Mom. I found her with my little sister. As I walked into the room my Mom looked away from my sisters tear streaked face, I noticed she was covered in mud, and the next thing I knew my Mom was yelling at me. 
         

             I told her to calm down and explain why she was yelling at me. When she calmed down, she told me that I had pushed my sister into the mud and ran away giggling. When my sister followed me I ran into the basement, she followed me down and looked under the stairs and there I sat with bright green eyes, I have brown eyes. I interrupted my Mom at this point and told her that I was in my room, I have brown eyes, and that I don’t own contacts. My Mom said that was true but I could have snuck out of my window. My little sister looked up at me and said that when I, supposedly, pushed her in the mud I had my hair in two braids, I had my hair in a pony tail at the time, she also said that I had growled at her when she started following me. My Mom still suspected me and said I was grounded and could not use any electronics.

            That night I was getting my homework done by the basement door when I heard a scream rising from the depths of the basement. My Mom was in the kitchen with me, and when I asked her if she had heard the scream she said she had not.

            I went to bed but I kept hearing something moan and groan. I looked at my clock. As my eyes ran across the ceiling and down the wall, my eyes caught a green glow coming from a vent. Thou, it was not coming from the vent it was coming from all over.

            I blinked and it was gone, that I was weird; my Mom came in and told me to stop moaning and groaning. I told her I was sorry and that I didn’t know I was making a sound.
