11:45pm by Nobody: 9:59am On May 17, 2017 |
Tobi kept hitting the clock. It had stopped. It was 11:45pm. He heard a sound. A soft tapping at the window. He peered through it but saw nothing. Then he went into his room to sleep. It was 11:45pm. The clock had stopped again. He was sure something was wrong. He had replaced the batteries that morning. He took it off the mantelpiece to check the batteries when he heard the sound at the window again. This time he opened it but saw nothing. A soft wind blew into his face. "It might rain tonight" he thought. Then he felt it. A soft pain like something biting him from within. It increased till his stomach began to hurt severely. He rushed to the door of the toilet when he puked all over the floor. It wasn't food or anything similar. It was insects. Live spiders coming from his mouth all mixed with blood. Tobi screamed and rushed to the front door. The pain never stopped. He opened it gasping for air and removing his shirt in the process when his stomach burst open and more spiders rushed from his entrails. He fell down bleeding and saw a hooded figure coming towards him with an axe. He was too weak to stand. The spiders ran all over him, some also coming out of his nose and mouth choking him. He tried to scream but a gurgling sound came. He lay there while the hooded figure looked down at him from empty eye sockets. He lifted the axe and brought it down on Tobi's neck. He woke up with a start. "Oh it's a nightmare" he said aloud. "Are you sure?" someone spoke from the living room. He lived alone in the house so he quickly looked at the clock before him. It was 11:45pm. He was about to get off his bed when something ran down his left arm. It was a spider. He quickly rushed to the living room when he felt the axe hit his back. He fell down and saw the hooded figure sneering at him. Then the axe came on his head. THE END |
