《The Midnight Man》Chapter 4 - Downstairs
Advertisement
They all shuffled quickly down the stairs into the living room. It was only 10 past 12.00, so they still had a long time until the game was over.
After chilling in the living room for about an hour, they started to think that this stupid game, really was just a stupid game. The only thing they had experienced in an hour of this game, was the occasional candle going out or flickering. But that was easily explainable. They were about to go upstairs again, when it finally got interesting.
They started hearing faint footsteps around the house, and they started hearing doors creak open and slam closed upstairs. They were all too scared to go up there, so they decided to stay where they were. They were all thinking the same thing: What if this is real, and the midnight man is actually looking for us upstairs.
About half an hour later they noticed something....
"Ummm guys, we did turn off All of the lights in the house, right?" Asked Colby pointing at a light coming from behind the door.
"NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NOOOO!!! WE CANT HAVE ANY LIGHTS ON!!!!!" Screamed Sam, panicking. He sprinted to the room and opened the door, to find a light turned on. He walked inside and reached for the switch on the far side of the room.
SLAM!
The door slammed behind him and locked, trapping him inside.
"MY CANDLE! MY CANDLE! HELP! IT WENT OUT! I NEED THE LIGHTER!" Screamed Sam as he pounded hard on the door.
"NO, SAM! WHO HAS THE LIGHTER!?!? KATRINA!?!? JAKE?!?! NO, NO, NO WE NEED THE-"
"COLBY!" Katrina screamed, "CALM DOWN! PANICKING WILL NOT HELP SAM GET OUT OF THERE!"
Sam was now trapped in a small room, with no light and no lighter. The smoke from the extinguished candle filled the room with a familiar but terrifying smell. The gap under the door was too small to pass anything through, and the lighter was outside with Kat, Jake and Colby. Sam thought that he was alone, but he was not. The midnight man had found him, and he was about to find out what really happens when he catches you...

The Ancient Tree's Journey
On a planet far away from Earth, an ancient tree lives inside a beautiful forest. When the tree realises that its life is coming to an end, it creates a seed without a soul. The seed begins a long journey, being passed from person to person, until it finally collides with the soul of a girl from Earth and sprouts. With her human knowledge, the girl tries to survive in this world... as a tree. Note: This is my first time writing a novel, so my writing style might be a little rough around the edges sometimes, especially the first twelve are still amateur style. I'll probably rewrite them at some point... later perhaps. Also, the MC will be introduced in chapter 13. The first twelve chapters are more of an introduction to the world, so they bear little significance to the main story. Still, I recommend reading it if you want to get a better view of the world. Chapter releases once every four days.
