## Story

It was a dark night and there was a girl walking home from a long night. She was a her friends house and she had to be home by dark. She told her mom she would be home soon and that it was kinda dark. She took a shortcut through the woods and it would take her to her backyard. She was walking all alone and kept looking back like someone was watching her.

"Hey! Go away," she shouted as she turned around again.

There was no answer. She kept walking a saw a figure that looked like a child. She stood there for a minute before approaching it. She walked closer as she slid her feet in the leaves.She was walking closer to the unknown figure.She looked around and saw it wasn’t moving. When she looked at it, it was a small doll at least two feet, it looked like it was beaten up, and that it was here for a while.

“Woah! She looks terrible. I wonder how long she was here for,”the girl said.

“Ring ring! Ring ring” her phone started ringing so she picked it up.

“Hello...I’m almost a home mom. I’m in the woods behind the house...I know I know...I'm coming...love you.” She hung up and put her phone back in her pocket. She looked down at the doll and kept walking home. She looked back and still could see the doll on the ground. She started to run though the backyard and into the house.

“ Lissa, you know better than to be out in the dark. Something could have happened to you,” her mother said, coming into the room.

“I’m sorry,”Lissa said, as she took off her coat and shoes.

“I want you to finish what you are doing and go to bed,”her mother said.

“Okay mom,”Lissa said.

“She was putting her coat and shoes away. She watched her mother turn on the TV to check the news and stood there. Lissa went up the stairs and went to her room. Her room is Teal and has black and white things. Her bed has 10 pillows, some big and some small ones. She also has paper all over the top of her desk with markers, pens, pencils, colored pencils, and erasers on them. She walked over to her desk, grabbed a blank paper and started to draw on it. She was drawing the doll that she found. She is very good at drawing things that she sees. She had the look into the doll's eyes, the red lips, the cracks on its body and the long white dress.Lissa thought she looked kinda scary but then again she likes scary things. When she finished the picture she left it on her desk and climbed into bed. She turned off the light that sat next to her bed on her stand. Now it was dark in her room with the only light that shined though was the light from the car passing by the house. She laid there in the darkness looking up at the ceiling. She slowly started to drift off to sleep with her eyes getting heavy and closing them. She woke up to the sound of someone in her room. She looked at the clock and it said it was 3:00am. She turned on the light and looked around in her room. She saw nothing but the mess in there. She threw the sheets over to the right side of her bed and got up. She picked up her phone. She went downstairs and saw that the TV was off.

“Mom must have gone to bed,”Lissa said to herself.

She was on her way back to bed when something touched her leg. She turned on her phone light and saw it was just a cat.

“Twilight, what are you doing you silly kitty,”Lissa said, petting her cat.

The cat just purred her leg as Lissa went back to her bedroom. She opened the door and saw the doll sitting in her room at her desk. The doll was holding a pencil and had a piece of paper in front of her. The doll wrote something on the paper. Lissa picked it up and started to read it.

Dear Lissa.

I saw you in the woods. You seemed interested in me but your phone rang and you left. You like thrillers, so here I am! I know you think I’m just a doll and someone is trying to scare you. But wait for the big thriller and you will be running for help!

The doll

Lissa thought this was a prank so she went to pick up the doll. She stopped moving when its head moved towards her. She stepped back and watched its head move more to her.

“Mom, you’re very funny.”Lissa said, walking out of her room.

“What honey,”Her mom said, coming to her.

“You're trying to scare me with a doll,”Lissa said.

“What are you talking about,”her mom asked in confusion.

“The doll you put at my desk with the note,”Lissa said.

“What doll? And what note,”her mom asked.

“That one...where did she go,”Lissa said as she started to look around in her room.

“Honey, are you okay,” mom asked as she watched Lissa mess up her room.

“She was just here,”Lissa said looking for the paper the doll wrote on.

“Honey, I think you should go back to bed,”mom said, stopping her daughter from looking and messing up her room.

“Okay, I guess I will,”Lissa said, as she went to her bed.

“Goodnight Honey,”her mom said.

“Good night,”Lissa said. She laid down in her bed for a good five minutes before she went to turn on her right side. She opened her eyes slowly and that doll was right next to her.

“Yikes,”Lissa said as she got out of bed.

She picked up the doll and threw it out the window. She watched the doll fall and hit the ground. She shut the window and locked it and her door so it couldn’t get in her room again. She went back into her bed and went back to sleep knowing that the doll was now outside.She heard a knock on the door and she looked at the clock and it said it was 9:00 in the morning.She got up and went to answer the door.It was just her mom.

“You need to get up now,”her mom said.

“Okay,”Lissa said, rubbing her eyes.

Lissa shut the door and went to get dressed. She put on a pair of jeans with rips in them and a black T-shirt. She also put on her black and white sneakers and black and gray socks.She went out of her room and mom was in the kitchen making breakfast. She had eggs and sausage on a plate for Lissa.

“Here you go,”her mother said, placing the plate in front of Lissa.

“Thanks,”Lissa said, sitting down at the table.

She started to eat her eggs and watched her mom get ready for work.

“I have to go to work. Can I trust you to stay home alone,”her mom asked, putting on a scarf that was black so it went with her outfit.

“Yes, you can trust me home alone. Can I go to my friend's house for a little bit,”Lissa said, hoping her mom would say yes.

“You can go to your friend’s house but you may Not be out at night,” her mom said.

“Okay mom. I will,”Lissa said as she ran upstairs to get her things.

Her mom just left and Lissa was getting her shoes and coat on to head out. She forgot her phone upstairs on the charger.

“Dang it,”she said as she ran back to her room. She grabbed her phone and went back down stairs. She went out the door and locked it as well. She was going to take the shortcut through the woods again. She went to the spot where the doll was last night before it was in her room. It wasn’t there anymore so now she’s a little scared. She kept on walking to her friend's house and she didn’t think about the doll anymore until later tonight. She stayed at her friend’s house until almost 4:00pm. She said she had to go before dark so she left. Walking home she took the sidewalk this time and didn’t go through the woods. With the street light shining on her she kept walking. There was a “Thud!” from right behind her. She turned around quickly and there was nothing except a note on the ground. She picked it up and read it.

Dear Lissa,

Why are you on the sidewalk? Why not in the woods? I miss you Lissa. Come play with me Lissa. I’m waiting for you in your room now Lissa. Come on Lissa. Let’s go.

Your new friend

The doll

Ps: My name is Annie

Lissa was terrified of this somewhat “friend” she has. She threw the note on the ground and ran away from it. With her heart pounding, breathing heavily, she stopped in her front yard. Looked around as the sun was setting on the horizon. Lissa saw her mom pull into the driveway and her mom was putting the car in park.

“Hello, honey! Did you just get back,”her mom said.

“Hi, mom! Nah, I have been here for 10 minutes prior to you getting here,”Lissa said.

“Good job! You were here before dark,”her mom said with some sarcasm in her voice.

“Thanks mom,”Lissa said, rolling her eyes.

“You’re welcome sweetheart! Now it’s getting past your bedtime so go to bed,”her mom said.

“Good night mom,”Lissa said, going up to her room.

Lissa stopped at the top of the stairs and looked at her door. She was watching for something to happen like Annie to come get her. After five minutes of standing there she slowly walked over to the door. She put her hands out to touch the door knob. She held the door knob and slowly turned it and pushed it open. There was Annie, sitting on the desk looking right at her with a piece of paper and a pen in her hand. Lissa walked to the doll and took the paper from the doll’s hand. It said…

Dear Lissa,

You finally came! Do you like to play with dolls? I like to play with you. Let’s play now! I can’t wait.

Your new friend

Annie

She looked at the doll for a few minutes before letting out a few words.

"Sure Annie," Lissa said. "I'll play."
