Moonfur's Revenge (aka Survivors: A Dark Future) by Xishka^^ (500 Moot Coins Winner!!)

Survivors: A Dark Future Prologue Moonfur looked up to the sky as she shivered from the icy air. It was the middle of winter and she couldn't help but feel lonely without her mate around. Her fur rippled when the breeze picked up, she slowly backed up towards her den, turning her back on the freezing cold weather. "Mama?... docs.google.com

4. Spooky Short Story by Eventt シ

SSC Submission - Eventt #ShortStoryContest. Here is my short story submission and I hope you enjoy it. Sorry for any grammar/spelling errors. I attempted to fix them all but yeah. June 14th, 2004 It was an unusually chilly evening when I came home from my work shift. I contacted a close friend of mine to stay for the night and he agreed to come over. We both were only 15 at the time and my parents were not going to be home until midnight. He had brought over some video games to pass the time. After a few hours of playing videogames I asked him, "Want to go explore an abandoned building?". He seemed excited about it because we both were interested in the history behind the building. We both decided it would be best to go in the morning. As we were sleeping, I heard a loud noise outside unsure if I had just dreamed it or not. "D-Did you hear that?" stammered Jack. At that moment I realized what I had ehard was real because Jack had heard it as well. I slowly replied, "Yeah.. I heard it." We both were a little worried but as we went to go back to sleep I told him, "It kind of sounded like a gunshot and since we have a forest behind the house, it might just be some hunter." Although, I knew this wasn't true because nobody is allowed to hunt there but it seemed to at least comfort him to where he wasn't panicking as much. We both managed to fall back asleep but just as I feel asleep I heard a rattling noise near the front door. I immediately wake Jack up and tell him about what I heard. Only seconds later we hear the doorknob violently shake and the door creaks open. I told him, "Follow me, I know where we can go!" Just before we leave he grabs one of my baseball bats that were sitting next to my door. We immediately ran to one of the storage units in our house and lock the door. I try to turn the light on but Jack insisted that I shouldn't. We are silently sitting there hoping whoever broke open the door will just do what they need to and leave but the door we were hiding behind rattled and we knew someone was trying to get in. We hear another loud noise which we now know is a gunshot. This made both of us start freaking out and Jack grabbed his bat to get ready to try and fight the intruder but I silently motion upwards where there is a vent. By now, the intruder is trying to break down the door with the gun and he is shooting it and creating a hole in it. I hesitate for a second and I get a good look of him. He was wearing complete black with some sort of clown mask. Then, Jack picks me up before I even realize what he was doing but he was lifting me up to the vent. I take the vent cover off as fast as I can and he lifts me up and I crawl into it. I start trying to pull him up but I am not a very strong guy and we almost have him all the way in when the guy shoots his gun and the bullet flies through the vent hitting me in the lower leg. Jack stumbled back in fear and schock and the man grabbed his legs and started to carry Jack away from the house. I am in a bunch of pain but I hop out of the vent and start trying to chase after the man but there isn't very much I could do with an injured leg. It was getting super dark and the only way I could keep after the man was with Jack screaming. I follow him into the exact sime building that me and Jack planned to go visit and I thought to myself, "Oh hell, this is the guy that killed all those children a few years ago." I keep persuing the man in hope of getting Jack back because he was one of my greatest friends. At this point, I am bleesing a lot from the wound and I think I might black out but I continue to go. I see him dragging Jack into a back room of the building but as soon as I reach the parking lot I black out. July 21st, 2004. Hello, this is Samantha Crews with the CNNJ News Department and we are here with a breaking story. 15 year old Jack Williams is found hanging in a closet at an abandoned building.
