Garden Invaders
I'd been out at the pub and came home around 12ish, spent a few hours on the PS2 and was settling into bed. I hear a noise, but where from? So I listened, but nothing came. Must have just been something in the street or a car passing up on the main road.

So I settle again when I hear the noise, this time for certain theres a rustling outside in the garden. That welling up of fear started to rise in my stomach. Im debating, do I wake my dad or investigate myself?

I opt for the peeking out of my window, just between the blinds. Everything is silent but I can barely hear a noise, just out of sight near the back door.

I watch and listen for about 10 minutes, heart thumping and utterly terrified. The noise continues and im straining my ears for voices, but cant make anything certain out. I opt for the cowardly choice and shine my maglight across the garden, hoping its light would deter who/whatever was out there.

A few minutes pass before I hear it again, and now I know I'm going to have to check this out. I tool myself up with a few darts and my junior baseball bat and creep downstairs. The back door led to an old conservatory, which then led to outside, but such was the angle of the doors I couldnt see the door itself. Was there anyone trying to get in, no idea but I'd came too far to not at least look.

The slow approach had failed, I flicked the keys in the lock and threw the door open. Total silence. The back door is closed but I hear the noise and look out to my mams new wind chime.

Fucks sake

In similar circumstances, I fared no better.
