Chapter 1 - The key in the mirror

100%

I walked down the stairs of my house,my parents called me down asking me to go to the post box.

I complied to the request .

I grabbed my keys next to a mirror but the me in the mirror was holding a different key, drenched in some dark red substance.

I looked back to the mirror but it was a perfect reflection of my self.

I brushed this off while saying to myself “when I get back I’ll go straight to sleep”

I walked in the darkness with only street lights,it was very quiet.

I walked and walked then I quickened my pace I should have already made by way to the post box.

I then heard a Suttle noise it was very loud since it was quiet.

“Sqrrrikk sqqrrrikk”

Ringing in my ears.

It was frightening I looked back but it was too dark to see what was making that noise.

Then something bumped my head I looked at what fell, it was the key from the mirror.

I panicked but my nerves were better since the noise from behind stopped.

I was too scared to pick it up so I walked on to the post box , there was nothing but a notice inside.

It was a missing notice from the key from before, the notice offered a bountiful reward for the person who returns to key.

So I took the key from the floor ignorant of the mistake I made.

“Sqrrikkk sqrrikk sqqrrrrriikk”

The noise from before came back louder and louder until it was so loud it hurt my ears.

I was at my door step and the lock didn’t work my back was drenched in cold sweat so was my hands.

When I finally got the door open the noise was gone.

I shut my mouth so no noise comes out as I slowly turn my head with my heart racing” thump thump thump”.

My face met another face while in silence.

Then everything turned upside down.

“Oh I see” were my last words
