I was running away from him because I found out his secret. In the short 3 months I had lived in this new town. I had found out that my neighbor was a murder. He had murdered his step-daughter, who was my best friend. He had caught me in his house looking for clues to pin him to the crime. I found the biggest clue, my friends journal that said my step-dad did it. The entry was labeled the date of her murder. I also recalled her telling me that she was afraid of her step-dad. This was hard for me to believe because I thought he was not that way. I was caught and the only thing I could think of was to run. I had run past the houses and into the woods at the back of the subdivisions. Since I was new to the area, I could not find my way through the woods. I could feel him back behind me. As each stick cracked underneath his feet. Then it stopped. Where did he go? I had no time to think only time to run. I made it out of the woods and to the cliff where my friend;s body was found. Out of no where he comes out and corners me at the edge of the cliff. He smirked out, "I got you where I want you and no one will ever find out my secret because you are going to be one too."
I stuttered out "Wwwhhyyy mmmee?"
He evilly said "Say your prayers."
I just stood at the edge of the cliff not knowing what my fate was.
