It was cold and rainy night and Jessica was home alone and her parents left out of town on business. They left her there to take care of the house. Jessica didn’t like to be home alone it scared her very much. She did everything she could to keep her mind off being home alone. She did some chores and fed the dog and even talked on the phone for awhile with some friends. As the time was ticking by she was getting very tired to ease herself of being afraid she turned on the radio to listen to some music. She laid there listening when all of the sudden out of nowhere the announcer said there was alert on the radio that some phsyco killer was out on the loose and had escaped from the local prison. This scared Jessica very much. She did not feel safe home alone at all knowing this. She tried to call everyone of her friends to come over and be with her but there was no answer. The one thing that stuck in her mind was at least she had her dog Sasha with her. The dog always slept underneath her bed.Whenever she laid down she would stick he hand underneath the bed and Shasha would lick it. That was always an indication that Shasha was underneath her bed. She went to lay down in her and she put her hand underneath the bed and felt a lick. She thought in her mind “I feel much better knowing that Sasha is underneath my bed”. Sasha was always a good protector when having to deal with intruders. She turned off the radio and laid her head down. When Jessica was about to go to sleep she started to hear a dripping noise come from some where so she got up and looked around. She did not find anything. Then she proceeded to lay down again she started hearing it once more. Then she heard a yelp. She got up and looked in the kitchen and saw the faucet was dripping a Little. She turned it off and was relieved it was only the faucet. She went to go lay back down and stuck her hand underneath the bed and felt a lick. She felt so safe to know he dog Sasha was right next to her underneath her bed. She laid back down to sleep when she heard more dripping noises confused she got back up and when to the bathroom this time and turned on the light and to her horror in the shower hung her dog Sasha by a noose and blood was dripping from the lifeless dog. She was so upset  and started to cry and was in fear for her life. when she turned around in the mirror dripped in blood was a message that said maniacs can lick hands too!
