The gray clouds growled, and soon the lights started to flicker. It was midnight and rainy. Suddenly, the lights went off as I was going down the stairs. It was all dark, even the aquarium lights, didn't glow. I stood for a while but I needed to go to the washroom. I grabbed the iron handrails, it was wet. My hand didn't move, I felt something crawling up me. I was stone cold as I was scared. I gathered some courage and ran towards the washroom! I let the door opened as there was no one and nothing at all! It was only dark, only my irregular breathing sounds could be heard along with the thunderings which has already made my heartbeat faster. Suddenly, I felt a cool breeze beside me, I looked up... It was a Shadow but there was no one except me in the huge bungalow! I could hear some whimpers now, I didn't know if I should go back to my room or not. I stood in the bathroom for some minutes. Soon a lightning fall, I saw a figure! I was more than afraid now... I walked cautiously towards it as I knew, I can't spend the whole night in the washroom. "Oh no!" I screamed as soon as I felt someone jumped on me! It was soft and wet. It was soaked with blood, I started to imagine that...
Lights started to flicker as the current was getting back and lo! It was my Dog who wetted himself! I laugh at myself and then, went upstairs to punish my pet!
