Hi @braveheart29, please paste your entry here in the comment section.
I crouched in the back corner of the closet, my body shaking with fear, trying to slow down my breathing to make it less audible.
"I know you are in here somewhere. Come out so I can see you. It's time to play!" boomed the stranger in a deep, threatening voice.
I could hear the sound of blades scraping together, as he moved throughout my first-floor apartment. I held my hands tightly over my mouth, trying to be quiet, hoping the intruder would just take what he wanted and leave.
"Sara, SARA, Sara!", said the man in a mocking tone,
I hear the sounds of blades, this time much closer. "How the hell, does he know my name?" I wonder.
"Times up Sara!" as the masked figure threw open the closet door. Gloved hands reached for my throat, and I feel a sharp pinch at the back of my neck, then nothing.
The next moment, I find myself on a table in a brightly lit room.
"Doctor, I think she might be waking up," a woman says.
"Doesn't matter," said the doctor "I've already got the liver and the kidneys. Now time for the heart."
