Story: Thudding
It was a Wednesday night. Weather has been bad lately and it has just started raining again. I am currently living on the 5th floor of a 10-story apartment. I got a call from Professor Oak recently about a Pokémon that has gone insane due to unknown reasons. I didn’t care too much about it because I had other important things to attend to. I had just now finished studying for the next gym battle and was off to bed. All of a sudden, I heard thudding noises outside my apartment. Due to the natural human instinct of curiosity, I looked out my window. From my view, I was able to clearly see the entrance to the apartment complex and the gate which keeps the apartment somewhat safe. I couldn’t see anything at first due to the rain, so I went back to laying in my bed. Then again, the thudding noises appeared. This time, I was annoyed because I couldn’t sleep. I looked out the window once more but this time, I saw a strange figure hovering over a lifeless body. I couldn’t see this before because my lights were on the first time I tried looking. But when I saw the strange figure moving, I finally realized what it was doing. It was beating up a human on the ground with no remorse. All hair on my neck stood up at that moment and I quickly closed my curtains. I was so scared. I didn’t know what to do. I tried to dial 911 but the phone signal was jammed for some odd reason. I began to panic, and my breathing became unstable. Then suddenly, the thudding noises stopped. I had to see if the strange figure was still there or not. I opened a slither of the curtains and peered out the window. I notice the strange figure standing up tall. The raining had now stopped, and I could finally see what the strange figure was. The figure was none other than Darkrai. I froze staring at him. Darkrai was staring right back at me and was doing a strange gesture with his right hand. He was slowly tapping one of his fingers on his torso. And I counted his tappings. Once he reached 5, he stopped and looked at me with a smile. I then realized why he counted to 5, he was counting which floor I was on. But it was too late. In a blink of an eye, he was gone. I started to freeze up again when suddenly, I hear my door open and then close. I quickly go underneath the bed with my hands over my mouth. I began to cry with minimal noise as possible. All I can see now is a shadow in my room hovering over as if it was looking for something. Darkrai shrieked and I closed my eyes shut with my hands still over my mouth. But then it became quiet. I slowly opened my eyes again and Darkrai was looking straight at me on the floor with glaring eyes. The stare lasted 2 seconds and then he lunged at me.
I then woke up from my nightmare with a yell. I noticed that I was shaking, and my clothes were soaked from the sweat. I cried to myself for a good hour until I got up and realized that it was just a dream. I finished showering quickly and got into my new clothes. I was putting on my shoes when all of a sudden, I hear the thudding noises just outside my room…
