You’ve JUST moved in. Walked around the town all day, visiting new places and people. You met a man called Bob yesterday. He was nice, and you returned the next day to talk to him. He made time for you, you talked about random things like your favorite colors, halloween, the list went on… as much as it could for 10 minutes.
You even met him at the end of the day, literally walking into him and tripping. He walked you home like a gentleman, making sure no monsters could snatch you up.
After all, people are going missing….
Now,you’re all alone, and the power has gone out. You tried to sleep for the night, but something forced you to wake up an hour later. Maybe that dream you had…. The word, stargazing kept repeating in your mind.
you hear something. And against your better judgement, you decide to go out to investigate.
maybe an animal had opened the powerbox and turned off the power….
Your attempts are so intense that you nearly miss a glimpse of something moving out of the corner of your eye. The silhouette of a person, hidling just out of sight. Curiosity gets the better of you, foresight forgotten with the breeze hitting your cheeks, The red sweater they're wearing is startlingly vibrant in the darkness, and you're hit with the sudden urge to touch it. Beckoned by the fabric, you take one final step closer and approach the building's corner. You hesitate for just a moment. Perhaps this isn't the best idea
The figure turns around. A man in a red turtleneck sweater and a red mask. He had a knife.
you step back, but he’s quicker. He grabs you, placing a knife under your neck, slightly squeezing your cheeks with the other hand. He’s so much bigger than you.
It's cliche to say that in that swift moment your life flashes before your eyes. Time slows as you consider your options..
“be a good lamb- HEY keep yer mouth shut f' me~... can you do that?”
