The alleyway

The figure

Just down the road there was a shortcut alleyway. I know that my parents had always told me not to go down alleyways alone, especially at one o'clock in the morning but I was way to tired to walk down the Main Street so I decided to take a chance and go the short way...

At about halfway down the alley I thought I heard footsteps so I turned around to see, all I could make out was a

black silhouette that looked like a person I got suspiciously scared so began to run........
