Well, not much, and it isn't finished but here it is - “Shut up Mitch!” Said Cloe, before she stalked off down the sidewalk. “Hey wait a minute do you want me to walk you home?” Mitch said. “ Ugh, no why would I want you to come with me, I’m not a kid I can walk myself home.” She started to walk away and Mitch just turned away and headed toward his shortcut home. It was a small alley behind a few New York buildings that took him straight home. He used it almost every day when he walked home from school and knew it almost by heart.
Mitch was a tall 15 years old, about 6’ 2’’ with brown hair and dark green, almost black eyes. He wasn’t the most popular at his school but he had a few really good friends. One of which he could trust with anything. As he was walking down the alley he saw something shine through some of the old boarded up windows. He thought he was a fairly tough kid so he thought he could fight anything if he got into any danger. As he busted into the building, he saw strange movements from the back of the room. He started to freak out, but continued anyway. As he saw the shining object get closer, he realized that it was in a crate; the crate was bound tight with plastic, so he couldn’t break it open. He thought to himself “Eh, what ever, I’ll bring my knife tomorrow.”
As he wandered down the alley he realized that there were footsteps behind him. He immediately remembered the strange noises in the back of the building earlier. He quickly started to walk faster without turning around. He heard the footsteps getting faster and faster, he turned around to see who was following him. When he turned around he could see more light then going the other way, he saw a dark figure, almost pitch black. He blinked to make sure he wasn’t hallucinating.
