• I just got out of work , late as usual and the last one to leave. I knew i should have called my brother to come and pick me up from work since it was a quarter till midnight, but the more i thought about it the more i would feel guilty for wakeing him. Besides i thought my house is only a few blocks away.

    I grabbed my stuff and duble cheaked the door to the pizza palor where i worked and made sure i locked it right. Then i was on my way, it was a beautiful night with clear skys and a crecent moon. As i walked i continued to gaze at the blue sliver in the sky. I was almost to my house nearly 2 blocks away when i heard a whimper. I quickly looked around hopeing no one was in dire pain. Thats when i noticed a little boy a couple feet from me stareing into the dark alley in fear . I dont know what he was stareing at but i knew if he was scared then i needed to get him home and away from there. I did a quick look over to make sure the boy was ok and that there was nothing in the way to him. I put my things down and moved in frount of him blocking the view of whatever he was looking at.

    "Are you hurt any where that i cant see?" i asked as i grabbed him by the shoulders , makeing him look at me.

    " N-no" he stutterd as he tried to look around me , but i wasnt having that, and i quickly made him face me again.

    " now listen to me what ever you were afraid of is probally gone now ok? im here to take you home i bet that your parents are worried sick about you."
    I wanted to say more but i never got the chance for the next thing i knew was a hand covering my mouth with a rag coverd with clorophome (sp). I was Dragged back words into the dark alley, as i slowly driffted to darkness the last thing i saw was the little boy pointing behind me his mouth wide open in a silent scream.
