The Decision (17 ratings) by Taylor Brooks
Page 4 of 5 She knew she only had a few hours left,her mind started racing
wildly,think,think,think...Maybe she could lure the beast back into the attic
and somehow trap it.No! The beast had already figured how to get out,maybe it
could do it again.Did it have intelligence?How did it figure out how to open
the door?
Chapter 3
Sarah was beside herself with panic...She couldn't thing straight.Then she
heard a car door slam,she ran to the window and started banging,but they didn't
look up..She saw them enter the house,Sarah covered her ears,she knew that she
would soon hear there screams of pure terror and of death...but there was only
silence.What's going on?She didn't want to go downstairs,she was to
scared.Sarah decided she would have to try and leave the house because if she
stayed she would surely die.Sarah went towards the window and just as she
opened the window,she heard this noise,she looked around and noticed someone
was opening the hatch,and she knew it was the beast.Sarah jumped out the window
and landed near thw awning,luckily she did not fall but she finally got to see
the face of the beast.It was hideous and it scared her to death.Sarah knew she
had seen this thing before,a picture in a book,but how was this possible?It was
supposed to be folklore,something made up to scare people.ADaffleganger,it was
impossible.How could this thing have existed for all these centuries without
anybody knowing?Sarah then realized that the Martin's were probably invovled in
all of this.As she checked on the beast,it was making these god awful
noises,noises that made her skin crawl.She knew she had to jump,so she let go
and let her body fall to the ground.When she laned,she lost conciousness.
When sarah woke,the Martin's were in front of her.She started screaming and
yelling at them."What the hell is going on?Why did you tie me up?"Sarah
demanded.She started crying,she was so scared and she started thinking that she
would be joining her parents soon.Sarah began to notice that there was a stink
in the room and she started to vomit because the smell was unbearable.She
closed her eyes and started taking deep breaths,to try and calm herself
down.She was scared to open her eyes,but she knew she had to.As she slowly
opened her eyes,she got her first real look at the beast,it ressembled it's
picture but it was more horrible than she imagined.The body was grotesque,it
didn't really ressemble any kind of amimal,but it could walk on it's hind
legs,it's fur was matted and it smelled like urine,it's hands were enormous
with claw like nails,it must have been over six feet tall.It had these
eyes,when you looked into them,a deep fear would spred through out youer entire
body.Sarah was petrified and started screaming"Get this thing away from me,it's
horrible and i can't stand the sight of it"The Martin's approached her and
spoke in a language that she had never heard before.Then all three went into
another part of the house.Sarah knew her life would soon becoming to an end.She
thought of her parents and of the good life she had.Sarah wished that all of it
was some horrible dream but when she saw them coming back into the room she
knew that it was all very real.Mrs.Matin spoke first"We have discussed the
situation at hand and have come up with a solution,if you agree to it,we'll let
you live." Sarah couldn't even imagine what they wanted."Sarah we have
researched your family and we know that you have no living relatives,and no
close friend's,so if something happened to you,there wouldn't be very many
questions"remarked Mr.Martin."Just tell me what you want."Sarah replied.After a
few minutes,they began to tell her that she was the pperfect choice for there
son douglas."Douglas,who the hell is douglas"Sarah screamed,she was more
confused than ever. Next Page Copyright © 1999, 2000, 2001 Taylor Brooks, sffworld.com. All rights reserved.
