The No-Headed Monster by Zoe V

I was walking down the street at midnight as I went to my job. I entered the building as I got to work, cleaning, stocking and fixing...I went into the back of the grocery store (my name is Nick and I’m a 24 year old man) and I grab one tissue paper, then exit to go to the aisle. I stock up the shelf with tissues as I go somewhere else.


I notice something is off a shelf so I grab it and put it back, and I also got a mop and mopped the floor. “Gosh, my job is horrible, can’t wait to get a better one” I say as I sigh. I went into the boss’ office and watch the property with the security cameras. I hear a huge THUD! I rush to the main part of the grocery store as I’m sweating...I say “Hello..? Get out of here, we’re closed.” While going through the aisles and I see a huge horse-like creature go to a aisle


I scream in fear as I run back into the boss’ office, my breath heavy and heart racing. Soon everything went blank and I woke up in the boss’ office as the sun was shining. I then run out of the store and I head home. Next I’m chilling on the couch thinking about what happened...“was that a dream? It probably was” I say as the sun soon set and I went back to my job.


All of a sudden the lights in the store go out as soon as I step in and I looked around only to see that horse thing running at me! So I run the other direction and go in the back, I was sweating again as I cried in fear. The boss called me and I answered. I told him everything, he shook and just replied “gosh Nick, get a grip of yourself, dreams and reality are DIFFERENT! Just go to the very back and switch the lever, the lights will go back on.” I nod and hang up then go through aisles in the back, it was like a maze as I started to panic. I then found the lever. I switched it quickly and ran back to the main part of the grocery store as I see the lights are on, I sigh in relief and start to continue on what I do every night, nervously.


All of a sudden the grocery doors are locked and I go to a fridge that was empty, I open it only to see there’s another door. I open that door and then there just void with a box of water in the middle that I needed - I go to the water and pick up the box then run back and shut that door. I filled the fridge and just ran, I try opening the doors but they didn't work, and then I see that horse thing...it had reddish dark brown very short hair, no head, long backwards legs and a angry vibe...oh man, help. I run out of the way as it charges to me and i run in the back scared plus frightened. My blood is cold as the door shuts, my eyes focused on it and I back up, tears forming in my eyes as they roll down my red cheeks. I'm standing stiff as a board. This night feels like a day, what have I gotten into? All of a sudden my vision goes dark and...*cough* *cough* oh no...





The End
