Chapter 5 - A Ghost In The Shadows

It was dark out yet the red and blue lights that constantly flashed lit up the streets, the constant talking of officers was the only thing anyone could hear.

But nearby there was a dark, tall, and lanky figure hidden in the shadows nearby a dark fog like substance was coming off his robes. A knife in the figures right hand, and a phone in the left hand.

Began to sneak past the officers the darkness seemingly wrapping itself around bis body morphing his once visible to extremely hard to notice. The figure silently picked the lock on the door and then opened the door, then he closed it behind him entering the house easily.

And then the figure began to call a number causing a phone to ring, the audible ringing coming from upstairs was apparent. The extremely expensive two story house that most people could never dream of ever having.

"Hello who is it?"

" Hello Mrs.Nikkō, I just thought I would let you know I have decided to drop by and I'm inside your house. Now how would you like to die, slitting your throat so you can drown on your blood, gutting you like a fish. Or do you like it messy? I could just stab you over and over again like I hate you or something it'll be like sex but without the sex if you know what I mean. Theres blood theres the passionate rage, something long and pointy going in and out of your body it might aswell be the same thing you know."

The figure spoke out with barely hidden fake seriousness all in the women's voice.

"i.it's you, your a liar if you think I'm going to fall for your tricks."

"Oh tricks, I see I guess I can show you my newest trick it's where I stab you in the thigh for being a idiot. Well I'll be right at your bedroom door in a few seconds."

The Near silent foot steps and creaking of floor boards resounded out for all in the house to hear the light breathing of the figure couldn't even be heard over the now rapid breathing of someone behind a door.

"Do you hear that Mrs.Nikkō? Am I liar now? Well let's find out!"

Then the creaking was more frequent until it stopped altogether the slight creaking of the lockless door was heard.

[POV Mrs.Nikkō]

The eery creaking of boards aswell as the rythmatic near silent breathing. The darkness only served to unnerve me further, and then everything was silent.

"Knock Knock I'm at your door now Mrs.Nikkō."

I heard my voice speak out to me again in a joyous tone. I rushed to the closet afterall it was an outside lock not an inside one.

I hastily shut the closet and closed the slits in it as much as I could.

I covered my mouth with cloth in Hope's it would muffle the sound enough to not be heard.

And then I heard the door creak slowly opening, as soon as it stopped his low near silent breathing resounded through the room. The floor boards creaked as the shadowy figure took each step.

Then suddenly the closet door opened and what stood before me was terrifying a long tongue hanging out of the figures mouth blood dripping from its eyes, countless souls screamed out in pain, as they moved about all over his shadowy outfit.

I felt my heart jumping out of my chest I watched as my body trembled in fear in his very presence my instincts wouldn't let me move.

I saw my life flash before my very eyes, I saw the boys who stole my doll and threw it in a tree. How I was always picked on by the boys, and so many memories. I screamed out in terror all the while until everything faded to black.

[POV Mrs.Nikkō's house]

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!"

A feminine scream resounded out the officers rushed as fast as they could busting down the door and rushing up the stairs as the shadowy figure jumped out the window to escape the moon light shined on him making his figure ever so ghastly the officers made it in time to see him.

The one, the only ghostface the one who caused the death of one teen already. Ome officer shakily aimed and fired at the killer yet he missed.

The other officers checked on the woman to see a puddle beneath her but it wasnt a crimson one.

Ome of the officers radioed in for an ambulance immediately.

"We need an ambulance now! the one targeted by the killer known as ghostface has signs of her heart rapidly beating and it is only accelerating more."

"Good, I'll call the chief next."

The officer then fiddled with his radio and then out it up to his mouth once more.

"Yes sir ghostface was sighted, yes he somehow snuck in without anybody noticing and it appears he has already dealt with Mrs.Nikkō."

"No as far as I can tell nothing was used to poo ut her into the state she is, its just like the last case."

[POV The Streets]

A ghastly shadowy figure stuck to the shadows lurking about, it seems he has one destination in mind as he rushed closer and closer to a specific street until he finally made it to the street.

The figure began to run down the street seemingly looking at one house in particular, the figure seemed eager to make it there for some reason until he came extremely close to a house colored tan with all kinds of decorative bamboo lining the windows and the very door.

The figure lurked in the shadows slowly making his way to the lawn, then he carefully went to the door. Next to no sound was ever made by the figure it was as if the figure was nothing but a ghost.

The figure calmly grasped the door knob and then he turned it yet it was locked. Then the figure quietly made his was to the nearby window which suprising was unlocked and put one leg in and then the other entering the house silently and easily.
