A crack echoes in the midnight air

Footsteps vanish without leaving a trace

As the stars fill the sky,

I go outside for a short midnight stroll

A man in all black passes by,

Balaclava and tight dark clothing

He made me feel uneasy as he ran as fast as lightning

He ran straight past me without even meeting eye contact

The definition of suspicious

I traced where he walked and something on the floor glistened

It was only small patches, but it lit up my sight

And _not _in a good way

Something has happened - and i’m not sure what

This needs to be explored

A murder has occured

I keep tracing his steps

“Surely there’s _something _here! I need evidence! I need it now!”

“Where could it be” I ask myself indirectly

I need to find the person, see if they’re okay

_If _they survived

I walk for hours and just as I am losing hope _rapidly_, a weapon appears

A sharp, pointed monster knife

The blade is as sharp as pointed teeth

This is all the evidence I need! I can take it to someone, hand it in and find the DNA

I hold my phone tightly and slowly zoom in on the object

“_CLICK”_ my phone informs me

Now I have the picture, I need to find an amnesty bin and leave it

I can forget about it and call 101

I’ve got everything I need - I need to run back home before dawn

I’m sorted

I need to hunt the victim down

***calls 101***

****

They hung up-

Then the line went dead

****

**unknown number is texting…**

**unknown number: **stop digging or you’ll be next
