Day 1

It was a brand new school, a brand new town, a brand new environment.

I grinned to myself.He had been looking forward to this day.He looked up at his home.It was an average house with wooden windows.

Greenville , which was his current town , had many cases of death and missing people.What had happened to them was a mystery...

Nevertheless, Mother and Father still chose to move here because of the nature surrounding us.

I wasn't too sure about their decesion though...

As night fell, we rushed into the house, avoiding the cold weather outside

Most of our stuff hadn't arrive from our previous home so we did not have much to do.

Everyone went to bed early.

I was sleeping in the room woth a window facing the park opposite.

That night, it was chilly, even with the windows closed.The floors were creaky and there were eerie noises.I shuddered at the thought of living in a haunted house.

"Whoosh!" Something in the corridor zipped past outside my room.

Steadily, I crept out. "Hello?Anyone here?"

No reply.Weird...

Day 2

It was the first day of school. I was all hyped up. I had always loved school. However, it didn't seem like I was welcomed...

I was the centre of everyone's attention.It just didn't seem right...

I grabbed the shoulder of the boy beside me. "AHHHH!!!" He ran down the hallway, screaming.

"Monster!! Help!! Monster!!"

Everyone began screaming too, heading towards the exits.

A boy then approached me. He didn't seem panicked at all.

"Hey, are you a new kid?"

I nodded, still confused.

"Yeah...You know the rumours about this town being haunted?Everyone is extra cautious against 'monsters' here...But after a while, they'll realise you are just a normal kid and everything will calm down."

Day 3

I woke up to the sound of sirens. I peeked outside my window. There were countless police cars outside.

What had happened?

I saw police tapes everywhere.

"Hey, kid. Be careful. You do not want to end up on the list of Dead & Missing People..."

I nodded and walked away...

That night, I couldn't sleep. It felt as if I was being watched by someone. I opened my eyes and...

"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

There was a pair of eyes in front of my bed...

I squinted but did not see a body.

Then, an object flew towards my face.

Day 4

It felt like an eternity before I woke up. I was tied to a chair in a room which seemed like a basement. I spotted a figure in the corner of the room.

He was sharpening a knife. It wasn't an ordinary knife. It was a knife the size of two combined.

I looked around. Then, I noticed countless objects hanging from the ceiling. They were...were...

DEAD BODIES...

A object laid on the ground. It was a newspaper. I squinted.

"The Daily Times-13th January,Friday"

Wait, but it was just the beginning of a school year...How could a week have passed?

Oh no...Had I been unconscious for a week?

Then, the creature turned around. It held the knife.

It crept towards me...

"No,no,no..."

Was this it? Was I just going to die?

The knife flew towards me.

"NOOOOOOOO!!!"

It was then that I saw the face of the creature. It was HIDEOUS-Bloodshot eyes, a slashed cheek and a slit throat.
