h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

she dared not look back as she ran,dared not stop even to cacth a seconds breath. Tired, her bare feet scratched and bleeding from the harsh ground underfooot,she ran on. The full moon cast shadows through the trees making each look like a sinister figure waiting to grab and slash... and tear. It seemed like hours since she had left the house..perhaps it had been,perhaps it had not..her fear was the one thing she was sure of..she coud almost feel its hot breath on her neck,....

...suddenly ahead of her a bicycle loomed out of nowhere, almost cutting her down. She yelped, leaping aside; the cyclist swore and vanished. She kept on running. Then suddenly she stopped. Had she dropped her cellphone? No, she began running again. It was too early to call the police; running away was much cheaper on her network...

...Suddenly, small ghostly lights drifted in front of her vision, swirling and spinning, and drifted away...

It seemed as though time had stood still. She could not move and it felt that these lights were trying to communicate with her but for some reason she could not communicate back. Ws it real or unreal, will anyone believe me if I told them!

bolting upright in bed, i wiped the perspiration from my brow.
another dream just like the others.

Or was it more like a premonition? You realise that you were awoken by a loud noise coming from downstairs. You hear it again.....

and get up to investigate..

The you see the orbs of green light floating a few metres in front of you. You here a pulsating sound which gets louder as it gets closer to you.

You bolt upright in bed; it's just a dream like all the others...

or is it..

there that noise again..

You have heard it before...This time you decide to just look through throw the bannister instead of going downstairs!

There is a pale green glow and a pulsing noise...you appear to recognise and yet, cannot immediately place!

Your fingers grasp the bannister tightly, so tightly, that when the light and sound in your direction....you cannot move......

you sit there, trembling, eyes and mouth wide open with horror, even unable to scream...

...it passes through you....You feel so cold...frozen to the spot!..You find it hard to breathe and then....

..you feel the entities emotions,thoughts and feelings too..some much pain and anger...

and you instsantly know : you shouldn't have sprayed the repellent at them a couple of days ago

Repellant??

Is that what the sickly sweet smell is? It is all around and it is cloying......

everything starts spinning round you,good you're still clutching to the banister

You quickly duck to avoid being hit by a heavy looking vase that shot passed and down the stairs............

and you wonder why you never 'accidentally' broke that ugly vase in the first place, it being one of the wedding gifts of your mother in law, but now...

...it hovers above the glass topped table in the foyer... that would cost a fortune to replace the glass if it is broken...
