The shadows in the room were playing tricks on him as the house lit up with lightening and at times he felt he could see someone in the room with him. Of course he knew this couldn’t be true. Even at ten, he knew things like this didn’t happened. The most he had to be afraid of was his mother for not making it home before the storm hit.
But as the storm got more intense and the display of lightening and the subsequent boom of thunder continued its assault, Demetri started to see a dark form in the corners at first. Then he would see it coming near him and as the lightening would lay itself out across the sky lighting up the room he would no longer see the dark form. But as quick as the light dissipated, the dark form would make its way back into Demetri’s line of vision. He was getting scared by this and was starting to think he was not just seeing trickster shadows, but rather a ghost like he would see if the horror movies he watched. His nerves were on edge and his heart was racing.
