Write a short story about darkness.

Darkness, a Scary Thought.I faintly remember whathappened that night, that’s the reason why I’m sitting here. I can’t thinkclearly, see straight and yet I continue to see glimpses of him, his baby blueeyes, greasy black hair and oily face that sheds a smile every so often. I didn’tmean for everything to be this way, I feel as if it’s my fault, that maybe I’mthe suspect. I feel as if there’s a blunt knife digging deeper into the guiltywalls of my soul. As I peer around the room, I notice one streak of sunlight,fighting for survival in the dark and dampened room. Faintly, I hear footstepsawaken from nowhere. Now my heart is racing, as if it’s about to jump out frommy skin. I arrive atthe witch’s house, the one that tore my life apart. The one that needs to betaught a lesson, one that will stay with her forever. As I steadily walktowards the back-door paranoia strikes me. Annoying sirens repeatedly raid theblocks before this, and I begin to furiously panic. Suddenly, my legs takeover. My mind is at ease and I feel as if someone different has taken over.Someone that has strong determination and courage. As I barge into the smalland unusual house, I notice that it is awfully quiet, too quiet. I quickly scandownstairs as if my life depended on it. I check an upstairs and it seems to beout of place. The bath tub is filled with warm, fresh water; there are clothesto be yet hung up. That’s when it hit me. One more room out of the whole entirehouse to be observed, the master bedroom. I put my hand to the cold, but shinydoor handle and gasp as something covered in red is lying there. Cold andunwanted was the body of the witch that I was hunting for. Someone had beat meto it, but how? Why? I was about to leave the room, but something caught myeye, a letter, in her hand. It states: Rachel, how could you do such a thing?You’re a murderer! He didn’t love you. When you went away, we had the time ofour lives... He was going to tell you, but he never got around to it. Thepolice are looking for you, so you should stop wasting your time and turnyourself in.
