It started as soon as he climbed out of his bedroom window at 10:30PM. He shuffled down the cast iron drainpipe down the side of his house to the ground, he sneaked around the house in total stealth making sure nobody saw him. He crossed the well-lit main road, which spoiled the serenity of the village, bringing more people to the village who bought houses for obscene amounts of money and the Buttermilk Bluebeard. Then he climbed awkwardly through the barbed wire fence trying his best not to damage himself or his clothing as his parents would know he had been out if he did.
Now he was in the field he could not run through it, he had to slowly walk, down the edge of the field, as there was corn on the cob growing in it so he had to take care not to stand on or trip over one of the corn plants. When he came to the end of this field he had could run through the next field then he had to walk through the woods to the other side of the village.
The woods were strange place, especially in the dark when everything seemed to change. Trees looked like people. Branches looked like arms and normal noises like and owls hooting, or a bird setting of to fly made you feel like you were being watched. Especially now the Silo Strangler was on the prowl. It was said that he followed his victims round for days before finally killing them taking them to a farm and throwing them into a corn silo only to be found by the farmer when he came to clean it out.
When Andy got to where he usually met his friends, he was shocked to find that they were not there. Andy texted Tom only to find out that he had been caught sneaking out of his house so everyone else decided to stay at home. Andy sat down and pulled out the bag with their collection of drinks in only to find that that all the bottles were empty because they drunk all the alcohol last Friday and Tom was going to bring some. Then out of the corner of his eye, he saw what looked like a person looking out from behind a tree. He looked at it for a while, then decided it was just another figment of his imagination.
He got up and started to saunter back to his house when he started to think of the Silo Strangler and that he could be the next person to be killed. His parents told him that he targeted teenage boys who were full of themselves he did not know whether that was true or just made up to scare him and stop him sneaking out at night. While he was daydreaming, he felt a sharp pain in his side, which stopped him daydreaming. He looked up and his heart sank. He had ripped his brand new top that cost his mum £100.00. By walking into a barbed wire fence.
