The nightlight

Allright. After being told a few times that my little story 'the thinker' was good enough for a sequel I thought: 'Thees no way Im making a sequel to something that must stand alone.' But then te little artist/demon sitting on my shoulder (thats a metephore, Im not crazy) said, 'At least use the theme again!'
After pounding the little man into a artist-flavored splat on the wall, I realized he was right, and so here for you I bring a new story abot the innocence of children depicted with norns; 'The nightlight.'



Maddy shivered under her cool blankets as the wind found its way through her bedroom window and struck her. She wasent really a very brave little norn, even though her scruffy grey hardman fur said otherwise. She often had to be within her father's view, for fear of the things that might crawl in the forest. She whimpered slightly.
"m-mommy! HELP!!!"
After about half a second of waiting the sound of footsteps filled the hall, and a slender female hardman norn rushed into her room. "Its allright Maddy, mommy is here."
Maddy pulled up her covers so that they fell over her face, letting her large blue eyes stare at her mother.
"Mommy...Im scared."
The female norn knelt beside maddy and rubed her head with her paw to calm her.
Maddy whimpered again and looked around.
"There are monsters in my room mommy..."
Maddy's mother curled her face into a re-assuring smile and kissed maddy's forehead. "There are no sutch things as monsters Maddy. Your probably just tired, go back to sleep." The mother got up and began to walk out of maddy's room before the child whimpered again.
"Can you turn on the nightlight mommy? Just in case?"
The mother smirked and flipped on a small light at the center of the room before walking ack to her bed. The small light emitted a comforting blue glow that soaed over the walls and maddy's frightened face.
She tucked her head under the blanket and clenched her eyes shut. A small 'ker-thump' sound splayed acros the room and maddy shreiked. She began to chant to herself, "Monsters dont exist...monsters dont exist...monsters dont-"
Two glowing red eyes split through the air in front of her. She screemed only to be muffled by the monster's hand, whitch was clenched around her mouth.
"Im not a monster" Said a calm yet twisted voice from the glowing eyes. "That is a mean thing to say..."
The nightligt turned off.
"I dont like mean people."
Maddy was frozen with fear. The only thing that she could think was her mothers soft words; 'theres no sutch thing as monsters.'
The eyes tilted side to side. "Do you like mean people?"
Maddy shook her head.
"Good. Do you, hate mean people?"
Maddy looked into the glowing eyes. Her own eyes allready where welling with tears. The only thing she hated was monsters.
The eyes frowned. "I think your family aremean people."
Maddy's eyes where filled with shock.
"If I asked your family, would they say they where mean people?"
Maddy couldent answer.
Her nightlight flicked back on.

I was taken of my fear of teh dark by being locked in a dark room with the light switch taken out of teh wall for 5 hours. Sound fun?

I like the story alot. The monster sounds crueal, but at least he didn't outright attack her. That makes teh story even better. Write some more of it and finish it!


( Mods you can shorten this is you think it's too long )
