I never say it coming.The night was pitch dark, the sounds of crickets could be heard in the distance, them playing there of tune opera to the grass as the audience.I can't sleep. Despite the darkness of the night, I was hot, the sun behind the moon glaring down on me, twisting the nozzle and pouring sweat down my body.Today was strange. My sheets were warm, aiding the sun to drown me in my sweat, wrapping around me and tempting me.I can't let go of them, it's the only thing keeping me safe from the dark. This isn't normal.I hold a fantasy looking amulet, small as it holds a rainbow gem with a snake like metal dragon forged onto it.It's claws clutching to the stone.I stare at it and make out what I can in the moons light.This was given to me today.A strange man in a red velvet cloak, gold lines running around it, his face surround in a shadow.The only thing I could make out was his eyes.Those eyes weren't like others.They were pure blood red, circles of pure red blood that just had horror written all over it.A wired thing to be wearing in public, if the public could see him.People walks around him, ignoring him like he didn't exist, then one man walked through him, like he was walking into nothing, he just passed.I stared at him for ages, a ghost in the crowd.He slolwy walked to me, his steps in my head like a pin falling in a silent room.Each step, the sound blocked out the cars honking, people talking, my friends screaming.He was standing right infront of me, my eyes refused to disconnect from him.He put his arm out and dropped something that for its size, was strangly heavy.He leaned over, his head next to mine.I wasn't worried, this random man that I just saw and yet, I seemed to know him for years.He whispered to me, like a snake hissing lightly.
