Chapter 6

The five of them waved to each other before returning to their respective homes.  Alex goes home with Henry and Helen.  Kevin go home with walking.  Meanwhile, Sarra went home with her car.  Beverly closed the door after make sure they were all gone and headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

 The streets are very quiet with no one passing except a silver car belonging to a teenager, who else if not Sarra's.  The girl deliberately took a shortcut so she could get home faster.  Understandably, it was night and did not want to make his father worried.  Although crossing the forest, Sarra is not a timid girl like most girls.  She actually enjoyed the quiet atmosphere with music.

 Sarra's car suddenly stopped as she was near the cemetery.  Tried repeatedly to turn on, but failed.  The car engine still won't start.  Sge had to get down to open the hood and check the engine.  There was a confused look on her face, Sarra is not expertise in automotive.

 How surprised Sarra was when she closed the hood.  She took a few steps back when she saw a scary entity sitting in the back seat of his car.  She closed her eyes and the entity is disappeared.

 Sara's heart was beating fast.  There's no one here to help.  Somehow her courage thinned after seeing the entity.  Coupled with its existence is only self-attack.  After confirming that the creature was gone, she got back into the car.  Tried several times to start but failed, until finally the car engine was successfully turned on.

 Thoughts raced inside the girl's head.  Not wanting to experience that bad thing again, she chose to get out of the shortcut and return to the highway.  Although in the end it took a longer journey.

 Sarra takes cell phone and tries to call her's dad. Twice calling and is no answer.  She put the phone down anxiously.  Even though Mr.  Weaselton isn't the type of parent to get angry with their child, but it's still not a good thing for parents to worry.

 'TING TUNG TING TUNG'

 Sarra's cell phone rings, the name 'Daddy' appears on the screen.  Sarra takes the phone keeping focus looking ahead.

 "Dad, I'm on my way.  Have you had dinner?"

 [no answer]

 “Dad, look, I'm sorry if I made you worried or get mad but—”

 "SAR-RA"

 Sarra's breath caught when she heard someone say her name on the other end of the call.  It wasn't her father's voice.  But a man's voice with a very heavy intonation.  Sarra's hands went limp, she couldn't hold the steering wheel properly until she almost hit a car.  Not wanting to get hurt, Sarra pulled her car to the shoulder of the road.

 Her thoughts and feelings were in turmoil.  She drank the mineral water in the bottle provided in the car, hoping it would calm him down and think logically.  The time was 10.13 PM, luckily she chose a route with a lot of traffic.  At least it made her mind calm because she didn't feel alone.  After feeling better, she resumed driving.

 Sarra couldn't breathe a sigh of relief when her car arrived in the yard.  She had to make sure first that her father was okay.  Seen from the outside the whole room is still brightly lit, it means that the father has not slept yet.  After closing the gate and making sure the car was locked, Sarra knocked on the door and a middle aged man came out.

 “Sarra, why did you come home so late?”  said Mr.  Weaselton worriedly.

 "I'm so sorry, Dad.  We have too much work to do.”  Sarra lied with an even expression.  She's really good at acting.  "Have you eaten, Dad?"

 "Not yet. I waiting for you."  Mr.  Weaselton smiled at his daughter.

 “Okay,” Sarra smiled as she walked into the kitchen.

 Two plates of omlette and a few slices of bread as well as boiled vegetables were neatly arranged on the dining table.  Sarra's hunger made her forget for a moment what had happened to her on the way home.

 "You didn't call me if you were going home late?"

 "I did. I tried a couple times to call but Daddy didn't answer my calls.  Then Daddy called me back and—” Sarra was silent.  The hairs on her neck growled at the memory of that voice.

 Mr.  Weaselton saw his daughter's frightened expression, “Sarra, are you okay?”

 “Umm… Yes—yes.  I'm fine."

 “You said Daddy called you back?  I'm not answer calls or calling you today."

 Sarra is getting scared.  Something is wrong here.  She decided to end the dinner without finishing the food on her plate.  Mr.  Weaselton felt a little weird about her daughter but refused to ask.  He thought maybe it was just a teenage problem.

 Sarra hugged the pillow tightly, feeling uneasy, especially when she found out that her Daddy didn't call her at all.  She tried to find a logical and plausible reason, but there was none.  Not a single logical reason crossed her mind.  Not wanting to keep thinking about it while the night was getting late, Sarra finally chose to sleep.

 'TOK TOK TOK'

 The sound of a soft knock on the door from outside, woke Sarra who was almost deep sleep.

 "Dad, it's that you?"

 [silence]

 'TOK TOK TOK'

 The knock sounded again.  Making Sarra who was just come in the dream awake again.  Her sleepy is gone.  She opened the door and looking around who was knocking on the door.  She couldn't guess who could knock on the door other than her Daddy.  But the problem is, her Daddy never misbehaves.

 Sure enough, there was no one when she opened the door.  Only a dark passage leads to the lower floor.  It was certain that her Daddy was fast asleep.  Sarra closes the door and intends to continue sleeping.

 But how surprised she was when she turned back.  The entity was waiting there.  Creature with fiery red eyes.  The legs and arms are long with sharp nails.  Her whole body was painted with veins that made the creature look even more terrifying.

 The entity approached Sarra, causing the girl to take a few steps back.  Sarra's steps stopped when she hit the door behind her, but the entity continued to move closer.

 Sarra tries to open the door and shouts.  As if muffled, Sarra's voice was not heard by anyone.  Sarra's fear was getting more and more unstoppable, tears running down her cheeks.  She prays to God to be protected from the entity that are currently with her.  Strange indeed, humans will only remember God when she is struck by bad luck.

 Sarra tries to turn around slowly.  Tears were still dripping down her cheeks.  The entity was no longer there.  She could breathe easy.

 No.

 He didn't go.  Instead, he got under Sarra and held her feet.

 'GRAAAA!'

 The creature opened its mouth and let out a terrible sound.  Featuring a row of sharp teeth arranged irregularly filling each jaw.  The whole room was like an earthquake.  The bed lamp fell off the table and the chair bounced far from their place.  All the books on the shelves fell.  The window glass was shattered.

 The bathroom door suddenly opened wide.  Shows a very deep darkness.  Sarra's scream echoed throughout the room as the entity pulled her into the darkness.
