Arlette's POV🌟
I was frantically running everywhere, trying to find the exit. And no matter how hard I pushed myself, I just couldn't seem to make it anywhere near the exit.
My heart began to rapidly throb in my chest as I try to calm myself down thinking that everything was going to be alright.
But oh boy was I not even close to being alright.
The house was practically pitch black. And As hard as I tried, I just wasn't able to locate any source of light anywhere. by this point, I decided to use my senses to try to locate anything or anyone that could come to my rescue.
I slowly raise my arms in the air as I began to take each step cautiously.
As I was walking, I couldn't help the thoughts lingering at the back of my mind.
Was this even my house?
If not, who did this property belong to?
"Where are even my Parents!, not like they cared for me anyway. But most importantly HOW THE HELL DID I EVEN GET HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE !.
As my mind was being bombarded with these thoughts, I was instantly snapped back to reality by the sound of what I make out to be as kitchen knives screeching on the table counter.
I Instantly froze, as well as my heart. It sounded as if these knives were waiting to prey on their next victim.
And once the prey is captured by their sight, to Sink their razor-sharp blade into the individual's stomach, causing the person's guts to abruptly spew out as he/ she vigorously choke and spit out blood, before finally landing on the ground, causing the collision to shatter their skull into small particles, spreading everywhere.
The thought of this made my skin crawl. Either way, I took off and started walking again, but this time, to where the sound was leading me.
The further I walked, the more closer the sound got.
It was then to a point that I realized that someone was there.
I immediately stopped.
I couldn't.
There was someone I DID NOT KNOW, in the same house with me, in the dark, PITCH black dark if I must add, with knives in this person's hand.
I JUST COULDN'T COMPREHEND!,
Nor could my body and my mind and everything else of mine.
OH MY GOD!.
My body wasn't responding anymore and I could feel my nerve internally exploding.
AAAAAAAHHH! WHAT THE HECK WAS WRONG WITH ME!!!, was my last thought before I was harshly met with the cold floor before instantly blacking out.
Everything around was blurry as I slowly started to regain my vision again.
I wasn't able to make out everything around me properly, but one thing that I was certain about, was the fact that I was practically laying dumbfounded on the floor.
where was I?
how did I even get here?.
The very last thing that I remembered was passing out.
ugh...whatever.
These thoughts were just the least of my problems. I just have to find a way out of here. shrugging off the thoughts, I steadily got up and straightened myself.
The place was I woke up in was still dark, which means that I was still in the same house as I previously passed out in.
okay.....I'm getting somewhere here. I think ?.
Meh.
Despite the entire place being draped by pure darkness, I was able to catch a glimpse of light illuminating from the distance.
It seems that the only place I can see lit up now is the kitchen.
I was feeling adamant about approaching the kitchen, but I ended up letting a wave of curiosity wash over me, in hopes of persuading myself to do it.
and it
I now find myself walking over to the only place lit up, hoping for a way out. As I was confidently walking with my head held high, or I thought so, this facade was soon short-lived.
