There
was a long moment of silence, which was broken by a faint high-pitched sound.
Someone was whistling a familiar tune, like a child’s nursery rhyme. The slow
dissonant melody sent a chill down her spine.
Suddenly
a dark movement caught her eye, and the whistling fell silent. A man was
standing there, at the window, his eerie silhouette backlit by the bright
sunlight. Skylee’s pulse pounded in her throat. She huddled in the dimly lit
corner, hoping she was hidden from view. Goosebumps covered her arms as a
sinister creak filled the room, and the window swung open. She blinked and
tried to focus her eyes.
He
was tall, with black hair, and was dressed in a dark blue uniform. His face was
so smooth it looked like a mask. The sunlight tinted his high cheekbones
slightly yellow, but it was his black eyes that really scared her. They were
like dark holes in his face.
The
room was deathly quiet. Skylee stood motionless trying not to breathe, as sweat
dampened her clothing. The man peered through the open window. He seemed to be
scanning the area in search of something, until his eyes stopped at the open
book.
“It’s
true...it still exists,” he said as he effortlessly climbed over the
windowsill.
His
swift movement into the room made her let out an involuntary gasp. He froze,
then spun around and peered into the corner. The moment he saw her, a low
menacing snarl rose from his throat. Terror, greater than she had ever known,
swept over her. She felt paralyzed as she stared into his eyes...blue into
utter blackness.
