I don’t normally listen to dumb internet things about serious topics. But this one was different.

A loud ringing came from my phone. I picked up my phone then reading the words, ‘Local stalker/killer around neighborhood. Please stay indoors and lock and close all doors and windows. If seen any suspicious activity please call 911 and do not go to the area’. I rolled my eyes thinking it was some random bullshit but then the power went out. My eyes widened. I quickly walked to my door and locked it and closed any windows that didn’t have blinds on them. I locked all doors and windows. I leaned into a wall in my kitchen and slid down with a quickened breath. “ Is this actually real? Or am I being fulled by dumb shit again on the internet.. “ I mumbled panicking if this was the truth or not. I grabbed a knife for safe keeping and checked my phone. I checked the news for any information on the topic. There was.

It was true. Police and officers are looking for this man to protect this neighborhood.

“ Bullshit.. “ I spat out. Protect us!? They let this man lose in the first place. But I can’t do anything about it because I could be next on that guys body count. I can’t believe this is happening. I guess I have to live in fear for who knows how long-

I heard glass shattering in my living room. I held my breath quickly and my grip on the knife tightened. I quietly went towards the partway to the hallway and living room and slightly peeled into the room. I saw a man who was blooded and clearly in prision clothes. I quickly leaned into the wall and my heart raced. What do I do?! I kept on panicking until I felt a tight grasp on my neck.
