Maria continued to run, languidly breathing. From time to time she found the strength to look back. But at the back of almost nothing could make out. She felt the approaching steps right behind her.
Literally a minute ago Maria was returning home through the park and did not expect that something would meet. It was inhuman in size and quickly began to fit. There was no one around and the only option was to flee.
Maria ran without slowing down, but was tired of making herself felt - a sharp pain in her right side. The only thing that was stronger than pain is fear. He, along with heavy steps behind him, gave her motivation not to stop.
In a moment a blinding ray struck his face. But it was not just a ray, it was the light from a lantern that foreshadowed salvation. Maria was sure that Something would not come out after her.
But then the inexplicable happened. The light that Maria saw a few seconds ago began to move away, and then abruptly disappeared. What happened just shocked her at that moment. Maria felt a sharp weakness in her legs and immediately fell to the ground.
-This is the end! - said Maria out loud
But she suddenly remembered her mobile phone and decided to dial 911. But the phone looked unreal and he did not show time, as if she had fallen into unreality.
The steps began to approach quickly, and were right in front of Maria. There was complete darkness ahead, and all she had done was to close her eyes ...
Maria felt like she fell ... Opening her eyes, she saw the ceiling of her room. When she got up, she did not understand anything at once, and later realized that it was a dream!
Thank you for your attention, what do you think of my story?
