Whispering Street 

After a long day at work I was walking home and decided to take a short cut down a street I didn't know before, I thought that if I take this road maybe I'll arrive home before its twelve, but while walking through that neighborhood, I started to worry. I looked around me and the whole neighborhood was quiet, there was no one around, but me. On the sidewalk that I was walking on there was nothing more then just light posts, each about a block away from one another. I can barely see in front of me. But with an unsure feeling looming around inside me I quicken my pace. Before I knew it I heard whispers around me and came to a halt. I look around and no one was around, it was dead silent. I started walking again and the whispers raised one after another. Before I know it I was surrounded my all kinds of strange whispers, " who's there!" I shouted. Suddnely the whispers stopped and I look around me one more time. " whoever you are?, show yourself or go away!" I shouted aloud to myself. There was nothing. Everything was quiet again. I took a deep breath and started walking again. When I got to the intersection where my street and this street meets I stopped and turn around. With one last look I saw something looming around in the darkness just behind the last light post I passed and called out, " hey, whoever you are, stop hiding and show yourself!" The thing quickly jumps into the darkness and hurdle away. I stretch my head and walked across the street turn around and look back at the same light pose. With a blank of an eye I look closely and there seems to be people standing around looking back right at me, little people standing in small groups looking right at me with glowing yellow eyes. I rubbed my own eyes and looked at it closely, there was nothing. I begin to feel scared so I dash off without even looking back again and rush home, opened up my door and locked it behind me. The next day I want to work normally and at night I walked home normally, I didn't take the short cut anymore, but everytime I walked pass the street, even in broad daylight I still see those little people, standing in that neighborhood looking at me, whenever I pass there, those eyes watches me. And I always had the feeling that they were waiting for me, either to walk down that street again or to talk to them. After awhile , I thought to myself about going back to the same street, but this time, I decided to bring a friend with me, the two of us got off work early and went to that same street that day," are you sure this is okay?" My friend asked me. " it's fine as long as we don't cause any trouble." I answered her. I walked ahead and she followed me. In the distance I can see the little people scattering themselves and hiding in dark places. " do you see those people over there?" I asked my friend. " what people?" She asked back. We wondered around for a while until it got dark, " Kelly, I think we really need to get home, I don't want to be late for work tomorrow." My friend said as she followed closer behind me, " besides, this neighborhood, gives me the creep." I ignored her and said, " wait just a bit longer, there's something strange about this place that I can't seem to figure out?" My friend let out a sigh and said, " will, can't we come back tomorrow?" I shook my head and said, " this will be the only night, I'm not coming back here tomorrow." Suddnely tiny whispers came from ahead of us. " did you hear that?" I asked my friend, she moved closer to me and said, " yeah, whispers." The two of us stood still and watch as the whisper came closer and closer. In front of us was a light post about a few foot away, the whispers came closer and closer and then suddenly stopped at the light pose. " let's get out of here." My friend asked me as she tugged on my sleeves. " wait, not yet, there's something strange about this place, and I want to know why." Suddnely a huge crash happened right next to us, we turn around to look at what it was and a creature stood before us. It looked up at us and my friend let out a scream, I grabbed her hand and we dashed off into one of the nearby house and locked the door. " what do we do, what was that!?" My friend yelled at me. " settled down." I called out to her. " let's just wait here and see what happens." After waiting for a while we fell asleep, then I was suddenly awake to a sudden scream. I woke up and my friend was dragged along the wooded floor, little creatures were holding onto her feet and pulling her away. I jumped up and grabbed her hand pulled as hard as I can and shouted, " let her go!, let her go!" I was still holding on when suddenly something grabbed me from behind the ankle and pulled me backward. " don't let go!" My friend shouted." I fell to the floor and I let go of my friend, she thudded down the stairs to the basement and the door shuts behind her, I heard her let out one last scary shriek and then there was nothing but silent. I got up and looked behind me, the little creatures where standing around looking right at me. " what do you guys want?" I asked. " stay with us." They all said together, " please, be our mom and stay with us, we'll love you forever here." I got up and said, " what about my friend?" They look at me and said, " your friend will be our dinner, we don't need anyone else but you." I dashed for the door and yanked it open, dash out and ran across the whole street out of that neighborhood and onto the other street across the intersection, the little creatures looked at me as they stood on the other side and I look back at them. I quickly turn away and dash off. Without a sweat I reached home and shut the door behind me, feeling guilty and scared. The next couple of days went fine. I stopped going to that street and would stop to stare at it from time to time. The little creatures were still there always, watching me. As for my friend I never saw her again. A few days later there was reports of her missing, but no one really knew where she was, no one but me. A few months later and her body was found, no damage to her body but her neck was broken, it was because she was dragged down the stairs that day, but no one knew, I watched the news as they talked about her and how her body was found in front of the unknown street, they then talked about how unlucky it is and how people should never take that street for it is hunted. Over and over again I felt guilty, so I went to the police and confess, I was then taken to jail and to court. " so you said that you witness your friend died that day right?, tell us exactly what happened?" I look at the guy and then at the camera and said, " after a long day at work I walked home and decided to take a short cut..."
