REAL STORIES

As I started to doze, in a state of half-way-awake and half-way-sleep, I heard noises. The room I was in was located on the neighboring side of a corner lot. My bed was positioned below the window, just on the other side of where I thought I could hear footsteps in the grass. The sounds were faint, the time was late and my mind was mush. However, fear set in so I muzzled it by squeezing my eyes shut and pulling the blanket over my head. I soon fail asleep…

…but then I woke up to the sound of a loud continuous beep. When I heard this, I was in a half-way-in and half-way-out of sleep daze, so the beeping didn’t fully register. As I became more present, the beeping got louder and louder. Soon I fully awoke and quickly jumped out of bed and opened the door to investigate. I heard multiple alarms chirping throughout the house. DANGER WAS PRESENT!
