I was outside, having my normal everyday stroll across the sidewalk like every other night, and I hear a faint sound coming from the drain up ahead. 'It sounds like a kid', I thought.
As I walk closer to the drain, shrill cry echoes in the mist. Lightning and rain hitting the rocky streets, late at night. I was scared, but all I could hear was, 'help me', and 'beware of the man in the red raincoat.' As soon as I heard that, I froze. Goosebumps flowing down my body, getting the chills. I glance in the far end of the alley way seeing an unidentified object leaking streets saying, 'pumpkin, where are you,' in a creepy slow tone.
I wanted to go closer, but I saw the man look at me as fast as light, saying 'Pumpkin?' He started to chase me down the alley. I ran as fast as I could, I didn't want to stop to check behind me. I hear his loud rain boots stomping on the ground. He is close.
I try to take my phone out to take a pic but as I try to grab it, it slips out of my hand onto the ground, behind me. I can't turn back to get it. I started to stop because I don't hear anymore noise. I check behind me, nobody was there. My phone wasn't there either. But there was a red raincoat on the ground. I see the girl again, but running. I tried to follow her, but I couldn't move. I suddenly feel a short breeze on my neck.
'Looking for this?'
