It was a cold and stormy night in the small village of Bleakwood. The wind howled outside the windows of the old Victorian manor house, and the rain pounded on the roof. Inside, the fire crackled in the hearth, casting shadows on the walls. A woman sat at a desk, writing in a journal, she a governess that lived in the manor house. As she wrote in her journal, she heard a faint cry coming from the nursery upstairs. She paused, listening intently. The cry came again, this time louder and more urgent. Quickly she closed her journal and hurried up the stairs.
She could feel the tension in the air, and she knew something was not right. As she was about to reach out to the door handle,suddenly,she heard a low, guttural growl coming from the hallway outside the nursery. She froze, her heart pounding in her chest. The growl grew louder, and Grace heard footsteps coming down the hall.
Slowly, the door to the nursery creaked open. Her eyes widened in terror as a tall, dark figure stood in the doorway. The figure stepped into the room, its eyes glowing red in the candlelight.Grace screamed as the figure approached the crib.With a speed and strength that seemed inhuman, the figure snatched up the baby and held it close to its chest. Grace tried to run, but her legs wasn't responding,She stumbled, falling to the floor. As she looked up, she saw the figure staring down at her. It smiled, revealing a mouth full of sharp, pointed teeth.
"My child now," it hissed. "You can't have her back." Then, in a blink of an eye, the figure was gone, and the baby was gone with it.
Grace lay on the floor, stunned and shaking. How could this have happened? How could she have let this creature take the baby? She had failed her charge, and she had no idea where the baby was or how to get her back.
As Grace sat there, staring at the empty crib, she heard a small, muffled sound. She looked down and saw a glint of something on the floor. Reaching out, she picked up a small, golden locket. Inside, she saw a tiny photograph of a baby and a beautiful woman. Grace finally finds the strength to get up off the floor, She begins to search the house, looking for any sign of the baby. Suddenly, she hears a faint sound coming from the attic. Trembling, she climbs the stairs and pushes open the door.
Inside, she sees a pile of blankets and toys in the corner of the room.She slowly approaches the pile, dreading what she might find. She carefully lifts the blankets, and there, nestled among the soft fabric, she finds a baby doll wraped with the blanket. she picks up the blanket, she felt a wave of shock through her spine,her shaking as fea griped her the blanket fell from her hands and she saw a piece of paper neatly wrapped.
"Dear mrs Grace,
I know you are wondering who I am and how I came to have this baby. I am not an evil person. I am not here to cause harm. I am a mother who has lost her own child, and I was hoping to find some peace and comfort by caring for another child.I know what I did was wrong. I was desperate, and I made a terrible mistake. But please, let me make it right. Let me take care of this child, and I will give her a good life. Please, I beg of you, don't take her away from me. I can't bear to lose another child.
Your friend,
As Grace finishes reading the letter,those words kept poundring in her head,confused and dreaded with fear, she knows she has to do somthing,but dont know what to do.she turns and walks back,down the stairs, leaving the attic behind.

You know I don't like seeing you like this,And you knows that i will always love and be with you.With these words her mum begins to fade away until she is nothing but a glimmer of light. Grace watches as the light fades, and then she is alone in the hallway crying and saying its all my fault!!! It's all my fault!!! It's all my fault!!!
