LEAVE ME ALONE !

I Parked in the driveway and got my boxes from the trunk of the car .  I was more than just excited !
This is the first night i will spend in my new House !!! I bought this house a month ago . A charming doublex in a calm  neighborhood  filled with really nice people . As I walked to the door i couldn't help but smile .
I went in and turned on the lights . It was about six thirty in the afternoon so it wasn't very dark outside .
I contemplated the furniture . My mom bought all the furniture as a moving out gift . My dad bought me the car i just parked outside . And i bought the house . I'm gonna miss my family,  but i'm 23 i have to start depending on myself . I placed  the boxes on the kitchen counter and went back to the car to get the rest of my stuff . One of the neighbors kids , Alex ,  a 17 year old boy offered to help me carry my things . What a nice boy ! After he left i moved my clothes from my suitcases into my new closet and made myself a sandwich and a cup of tea . I watched some Tv as i ate then climbed up the stairs to my new room . After brushing and flossing i covered my body with the warm blanket and closed my eyes .


At about 12 o'clock that night i woke up . There was no apparent reason for me to wake up . I wasn't having nightmares . I didn't need to go to the bathroom . I wasn't in any kind of pain but i just woke up and felt really weird .

I went down  to the kitchen to get a glass of water . Then went back to my room and lied on my bed .
My pulse quickened . I started sweating . I turned my head slowly to see what was laying next to me .
I screamed and pulled back causing me to fall to the cold hard floor . What i just saw ! I think it was the Devil !
It sort of looked like a human sized monkey . But the thickness and length of it's dark black fur reminded me of a gorilla . It had a long orange eyebrow that somehow glows in the dark , sort of like neon . The fur on it's nose was just like the eyebrow except it was green .
And it's smile . It's huge smile . The white large pointy teeth ! The teeth were so white they also glow in the dark !

I looked back up to the bed and it was gone . Maybe i just imagined it . no . There's no way i could've imagined something so horrifying !  But what if i did ?

The next night i woke up at 12 o'clock . And this time i didn't have to get out of bed to see it. It was standing right in front of me . It didn't speak . It didn't move . It just stood there and watched with that smile showing off those deadly teeth .

What is it ? i thought . and to my surprise it answered . "Diego" it said in a  whisper . The voice was low and raspy and masculine .
wait a second ! Did it just read my mind  ?! come to think of it ,The smile was still there when it answered , did it or he speak into my mind ? Could i really hear his thoughts ?

what do you want from me ? i thought hoping to get an answer but i didn't  . He just kept staring . And it was creeping me out . I slowly got out of bed . I left the room glancing at him every second . He didn't move . Once i was outside the room i ran to my neighbor's house and begged them  to come help me ! I told them there was an intruder in my house but when they got there he wasn't here  anymore ! Diego had    disappeared .

The next night at 10 i was in the living room reading the newspaper . I put down the paper to take a sip out of my tea cup and nearly fell off the couch . Diego was standing there watching me .


"LEAVE ME ALONE !" I yelled almost crying but he didn't respond .

I decided to sit on the veranda , i sat on the wooden chair and stared at the neighborhood drowned by the darkness of the night. I looked to my right and Diego was there again ! he's following me !

"i watch you sleep" he whispered again right into my mind . I ran to the bathroom , locked the door and hid in the tub behind the curtain . I fell asleep there . After two hours i woke up and slowly moved the bathtub curtain . Diego was standing there smiling as always .
Feeling tired and hopeless i walked pass him and laid on my bed . I fell asleep knowing he was watching me. It was the worst night of my life .
When i woke up in the morning , Diego was still there . Standing in the middle of the room smiling and starring .

I Had Made My Decision . I'm Gonna leave this house right now !


I walked out the door and marched to my car . When i was halfway there he whispered into my mind again .
"you can't leave this house "

Yea ? watch me !  i replied with my thoughts .

"YOU CAN'T LEAVE THIS HOUSE !" It was the first time i hear him yell .

I quickened my pace and got into the car and drove away from the house .

Suddenly , as i was driving ,  Diego appeared in the ,middle of the road !!!!

Trying not to hit him i turned the car around quickly without noticing where i was going and my car crashed into a tree .

Blood raced down my forehead , i turned to my left and saw Diego sitting next to me in the passenger seat smiling like always .


"Diego " i pronounced his name slowly .

And that was the last word i said .

The Dark Secret Of Temple Run !

One day , as people all over the world opened the Temple Run app , they found a message instead of the familiar  Imangi logo . After they read the message and moved on to the game , they were shocked to discover that one of the characters of the game had disappeared leaving only seven characters . This is the message they found :  




Hello . My name is Clara . I must write this fast before the others notice my absence . If They Find out i'm trying to warn people about this most dangerous matter they will delete me !

My Story begins almost a year ago . At least i think it was a year . I don't know . Anyway , my parents had just got my first phone ! It was an iPhone 4s . I was so excited ! Finally i could play all the fun games my peers played on their phones ! I sat On my bed in My room . The first game i downloaded was this one . Temple Run . I had seen my friends play it before and it looked so cool ! But what i didn't know was  that a dark secret , or secrets for that matter , hid within the game.

I tapped on the game's icon and i watched as the image on the screen  changed . However right after the Imangi logo disappeared , the screen turned white and it started glowing . I stared at it bewildered not knowing whether i should be amazed or terrified .
Suddenly , yellow , red and blue shapes started shooting out of the screen and hitting my face and my body . They stabbed me  and i felt my blood slither out of my skin as pain took over me .  I threw the phone to the floor and the screen faced the ceiling still shooting out what i believed and now know are the coins that you're supposed to collect when you play the game .

As i cried in fear , a human sized hand came out of the screen pulling a human body out after it .It was a man, but not just any man . It was Guy Dangerous ! One of the characters of the game ! he was now standing in front of me as if he was human ! His eyes however were red and his teeth were sharp and pointy like those of a wolf .  He turned around and helped someone or something else out of the screen . This one was a woman,  Scarlett Fox . She looked like a regular woman except for the eyes and the teeth . What are those creatures ?! Humans don't have red eyes and pointy teeth and they certainly don't come out of video games !

Then Barry Bones came out , followed by Karma Lee followed by Montana Smith followed by Francisco Montoya who was followed by Zack Wonder . Now all seven characters stood in front of me . They all had red eyes and sharp pointy teeth ! What kind of awful abominations were they ?! I had no idea !

Zack Wonder walked to me and grabbed my arm then started pulling me towards where they stood . I struggled and tried wiggling out of his grip but in vain . He was far too strong for me . The others took hold of me as well  and carried me . I screamed and shouted and yelled in hopes that someone would save me ! But no one heard me .   No one rescued me .

I struggled more and more as i began to realize what those monsters were planning to do to me . I was able to get away but before i could get to the door i tripped over something . I felt a hand  taking hold of my leg, but refused to give in  .  I crawled forward using my nails to hold on ,  and resisted the pulling . My fingers were beginning to let out a red liquid that stained the floor . My hands hurt too much . And in no time my resistance was of no use  .

They have pulled me to the phone and threw me inside it . They threw me into the game and i became one of the characters . That's when i understood everything ! The characters of the game are actual people who somehow were cursed or something and became characters of the game. But why did they want me ? i never knew ! All i know is that my life here is hell !

Sure , to you it's just a video game but to me it's all real .
When you let me fall in the water i actually experience drowning .
When i hit a tree i feel the pain .
When the demon monkeys catch me they scratch up my body and it hurts so much !

And endless running !!!! Do you have any idea how painful that is ?!

and when no one is playing or when the player chooses an other character i just stand .
Standing for a really long time also hurts . And not to mention the boredom !

But back to the point . I know for a fact that the others are planning on kidnapping someone else so be careful ! don't use this app anymore !


Oh No ! i think someone's behind me !
If they find out about this they'll delete me . in other words they K-




After that message the 8th character of the game , Clara completely disappeared . However everyone thought the message was a joke and no one believed it . A week later , a young boy from Japan went missing and a new character was added to the game .
