CRAASH!!

The shape's hand comes slamming into the window. You back away as he slams his hand back into the window of the car. You're about to put the car in drive when it suddenly dies.

"No!! Come on you piece of junk. Don't do this to me!" You try frantically to start the car.

Realizing that the car won't start, do you STAY in the car or make a RUN for it?

 

You jump over the railing on the front porch of your neighbor's house and race to the old, beat-up station wagon. You open the driver's door and get in. You slam the door behind you and lock it. You grab the keys and turn the ignition. There is a clicking sound and the grinding of the engine. "Come on. Come on, start," you say shaking.

You glance into the rearview mirror and see the shape coming closer and closer. The music is swelling.

"Start you piece of--" The station wagon suddenly starts and you throw the car into drive. You look in the rearview mirror and the shape is gone.

You put the car back in park and look around outside. "Where did he go?"

You slide over to the passenger side and put your face against the window. "I couldn't have been dreaming."
