Shadows of the Forgotten

Encounter

Encounter

Oct 13, 2024


Every creak and cranny had kept Johnny in the edge. He couldn’t sleep and was thinking of the terrifying figure. 


“Maybe I was dreaming. But the figure looked so real, and I heard it spoked.” Said Johnny to himself 


When it was morning, he quickly left his room to check if everyone was at the house, everyone else was sleeping. He tiptoed and peeked in the kitchen door window and no one was there. 

Johnny decided to make breakfast and still stared at the door til the others woke up.


“Morning Johnny… Are you okay?” Asked Dad


“Yeah just couldn’t sleep.” Said Johnny 


“Your mother said some kids pranked you and scare you. Are you sure you okay? Asked Dad


“ Yeah it wasn’t a huge deal, I will get them back.” Said Johnny trying to brush off the subject 


The rest of the family came out for breakfast. They all talked for a bit and went to their usual routine.


Several weeks passed, and no other  activity had occurred . it was the last week of summer vacation before everyone is going back to school. Mom was dropping and picking up Johnny off since the figure didn't seem to appear again which it confirmed that someone was pranking him 


Mom dropped Johnny off at his workplace , waved good bye and drove away. 

Johnny opened the door and greeted My Samson. Johnny was relieved that he will help Johnny close up tonight, so Johnny won't be alone. 


Both of them were finishing stacking paints and cans for a few hours.

Then, Johnny decided to go on break and get something to eat

 Mr Samson asked him if he can pick up a bagel when he comes back and Johnny agreed. 

There is a Café that makes great sandwiches across the street, and Johnny hurried into the store.

He then saw Nicole and her sister in the Café as well. 


"Hey Nicole." Said Johnny excited to see her.


"Hey Johnny..." Answered Nicole.


"So how's the book?" He asked


"It was pretty cool, If you didn't mind I took some copies of some pages and would like to investigate more of those strange symbols. " Said Nichole 


"Not at all." He said 


"Cool. Well, here is your book back." She pulled it out of her black bag


"Thanks. " Said Johnny 


"So like school is starting next week…do you want to hang out sometimes?" Asked Nicole. 


"Yeah... I-I would like that." Said Johnny excited

 

"Great!" Well…my milk shake is ready so… I have to go." Said Nicole.

 

"Cool…" he said, trying not to act too excited


When Nicole left, Johnny grabbed his food and Mr

 Samson lunch and ran back to the store excited.  He couldn't believe that the first time someone wanted to hang out with him and a pretty girl as well. 


The boss saw the giddy teen coming back and had a chuckle.


"Thanks Johnny for grabbing my food."


"No problem. " Said Johnny 


Additional of few hours later passed during work it started to heavily rain and wind were blowing things. 

Then a lighting stricken a light pole and the pole had landed in the main power source of the street. The whole electricity went out. 


"Oh Darn it, Johnny help me get some flashlights." Instructed Mr. Samson


Johnny had grabbed the flashlights from the back. Mr Samson and Johnny went in the back to connect the emergency battery. 


"It's a terrible storm Johnny. I think I will be closing up shop early. Let me take you home." Said Mr. Samson


He agreed, grabs his stuff, and they quickly made it into Mr. Samson’s truck. 

While he was driving, Johnny was looking at the window at the horrible storm and was wondering if Chris and Dad are heading home early as well.

He then saw the creep standing in the side of the road and was annoyed.


"I can't believe they are still dedicated with this stupid prank." Thought Johnny.


He wanted to say something but decided to ignore the figure.

Then he saw the figure standing in the other side of the street. He still ignored it. Just when Mr. Samson were driving near the cemetery, the figure was in the front of the car. 

Spooked, boss man swirled and hit his truck in the gates of the cemeteries.  Mr. Samson was unconscious, but Johnny was awake with several bloody cuts in his face. He then saw the figure looking right into his window and started knocking again.


*Knock knock knock*


Still dizzy, and angry at the unknown man had played the sick prank too far. 

He saw a crowbar in the back of the car and grabbed it.


Johnny  also to shout at the figure and got out of the car to confront the man. 


"You sick freak!" Shouted Johnny


The figure disappeared and Johnny went back to see if Mr. Samson was alright. 


"Mr. Samson, wake up!" Said Johnny while gently tugging him. 


"Mr. Samson!!"


"Somebody help! A man is hurt!" Yelled Johnny freaking out that he isn't waking up


 It was still heavily raining and thunder roaring. No one can hear the teens distress. 

 Then he felt the figure pulling his back leg and dragging him back to the cemetery. Johnny started to scream and wiggle, clawing and grabbing anything from the figure dragging him toward the grave that they have done the ritual.


The dark spirit  then finally let him go when they reached to the grave. 


"Take me back!" Demanded the corpse.


"I don't know how!" Yelled Johnny in distress 


"The book, foolish boy. You have no clue what you have done!" Shouted  the figure  


Then the corpse  started to scream in rage while thunder roar and everything went pitch black
