It was already midnight.\u00a0 It was raining cats and dogs, foggy and misty.\u00a0 Typhoon signal No. 8 was still hoisted.\u00a0 A mysterious middle-sized cottage stood alone in a dark forest. Crickets were humming the melodic lullabies for the Wong\u2019s family. The House was dark, filled with snores, sweet dreams and nightmares.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018Creak \u2026 creak \u2026\u2019 the door was opened.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
A man, who appeared with a long shadow walking with caution, held a gun in his right hand and shouted.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018ALL OF YOU COME OUT AND PUT YOUR HANDS ON TOP OF YOUR HEAD!\u2019 The long shadow moved very fast, like a ghost and he finally arrived at his destination.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
A series of broken sounds of dishes and bowls ruined Mrs. Wong\u2019s lovely and sweet dreams about his eight-year-old son, Thomas.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018Wak\u2026wake\u2026upp\u2026hon..neyyy\u2026,\u2019 Mrs. Wong quickly shook her husband to get up, \u2018There\u2019re\u2026 are some strange noises\u2026 outside\u2026\u2019 She nearly cried.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018BANG!\u2019 The noise came again\u2026<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018I SAY IT ONCE MORE! GET UP NOW AND COME OUT!\u2019 shouted the man with another series of shooting.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018AAAHHHH\u2026\u2019 Mrs. Wong finally collapsed. What worried her much was her lovely son, Thomas, whose room was right next to the kitchen.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Mr. Wong grabbed a broom and walked out quietly of his room. He was courageous. The floor was full of broken glasses with a long shadow of a man. Mr. Wong quickly hit it with the broom.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018Hurray! Done! Hey, my son!\u2019 He rushed towards his room.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
The room of his son was opened. Mr. Wong turned on the light.\u00a0 What he saw was a short guy standing still. \u2018Where am I?\u2019 the short, innocent guy asked, rubbing his eyes.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018Thomas, my baby,\u2019 said Mrs. Wong, \u2018What\u2019ve you done? You see\u2026 you sleepwalked again\u2026 Oh\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Thomas, holding his favourite toy gun, still felt shocked after the incident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It was already midnight.\u00a0 It was raining cats and dogs, foggy and misty.\u00a0 Typhoon signal No. 8 was still hoisted.\u00a0 A mysterious middle-sized cottage stood alone in a dark forest.
