="Okay Honey I have to go run a few errands. I'll be back in a couple of hours." Said Ann, Maggie's Mother.= ="Alright Mom bye..." Maggie was anxious for her mother to leave so she could be home alone. But, her Mom was very Protective of Meggie, expecially after the divorce.= ="You're going to your Dad's tomorrow so pack a bag." Ann reminded.= ="I know Mom...." Maggie Snapped. Ever since the divorce she was rarely nice to her parents. Megg waited tell she heard the wheels of the car back out on the gravel road. She listened till the noise od the wheels against the loose rocks slowly faded into silence.= =Meg just sat there on the couch watching tv with Scruffy, her dog, who was curled up next to her. Megie liked being alone. She liked it because it eminded her of when she was litttle and she would sit up watching tv while her parents were sleeping and still happy togther. The divorce really upset her.= =She was watching Spongebob Squarepants when she heard a load crash come from the kitchen. It sounded like glass breaking and she heard a creak on the hard wood floor as if someone stepped on a loose board. Scruffy let out a low growl. A shiver ran up Megs spine. What if someone was in HER kitchen? What was she going to do? Meg quickly thought of how anyone could get in, she had locked all the doors hadn't she? Out of the corner of her eye she saw the curtain blow in and out in the breeze as if it were breathing. The breeze was coming from the slidding glass door. It was open. Someone was in her house.= =She slowly got up tryig not to make a sound. Meg grabbed Scruffy by the collar. She grasped her fingers around the tags so they wouldn't jingle and pulled him by her side. Her adreline was pumping hard. She quickly, and quitley ran down the stairs, as she did she heard another creak from the kitchen. The tv got louder and louder and LOUDER so loud she thought her ears my explode. Someone was turning up the volume so she couldn't hear anything but the theme song of Spongebob Squarepants. Then all of a sudden CRASH!!!! all the sound stopped and the tv had been turned off because now it was pitch black.= =Meg tried to find her way with one hand the other was on her dogs collar. Her breathing grew heavier as she stood in the darkness. There was no question now about wether there was someone in her house. If only she could call her mother or the police but, the only phone line was in the kitchen and she couldn't risk it. Her heart beat grew faster. She extended her arm out trying to find the door handle to the garage so maybe she could make a break for it.= ="I wouldn't do that if I were you" a low voice said. The voice sounded familiar but, as if they were faking a voice to cover up there real one. The voice was awfully close.= ="AHHHHHHH" meg screamed she found the door to the garage and quickly opened it she let go of Scruffy's collar hoping he would run out with her but, right as she opened the door footsteps got louder and louder someone was running at her down the stairs. She tried to run but the hand grasped around her mouth and she couldn;t scream.= =Scruffy ran out the garage and meg fliped on the lights under the grasp of the person. She couldn't turn around to see who was holding on to her. She turned a little bit to see the refelection in the mirror. What she saw was so suprising. She blinked to make sure it was true. The voice she heard WAS familiar. It was her Father's.=
