It was a Monday evening around 7.30pm, sadly I was feeling the usual evening slumber trying to adult and not fall asleep.

When I here this strange noise, it appears to be coming from the basement. So I figure I’ll go ahead and suss the situation out. Making sure to grab my torch as the basement light had blown about a month ago but yes I haven’t quiet got around too changing it!

I head down the staircase torch on heading down into the dark and frightening basement only being able too see as much as my torch will allow me! Which is not a lot as it’s old and it’s my tiny one I bought back in high school for camp.

I head toward the noise it sounds like a tick tick tick tick noise, not something I can familiarise with any other noise I’ve heard. Perhaps it’s a bomb, or it could be an old stop watch ticking away or it could just be the simple fact I’m going nuts and it’s all in my head.

The noise is getting louder and I’m getting more and more scared to be honest it’s freezing down here and all I have is this poor excuse for a torch. But I am strong I am and independent women, breathe girl breathe, shoulders back and whoooosa you have got this.

I’m right under the staircase there is a lot of old pieces of junk I have thrown under here, I see an old mirror it’s coming from under it!!!

I take a deep breathe and shut my eyes count to 3 and lift it quickly…. You will never guess what I found a BOMB! A fukin bomb on the back of a RAT!!!!!!!!!!
