Between Life and Death

Beginning

I walked down the street just coming home from the park. I came around the corner and heard a russling sound coming from behind me. I turn and saw a bush shake. I take out my pocket knife and flip it open.

"Who's there!" I said sternly.

No one answered. I told myself it was nothing and turned around with my pocket knife still out. I heard the russling again and i turned to see a squrial jump out and run past me. I started back towards home. I put my blade away and took my key. I reached for the door and unlocked it.
