...d that the name on the card was her own. "in loving memory of Terri,"

Suddenly Terri didnt want to be outside her door, didnt want to be so vulnerable for whoever was watching. She backed inside the apartment and closed then locked the door in front of her.

As she slid the security lock on, Terri heard the living room door.

Suddenly angry, she rushed into the living room, a growl tearing from her throat in hope of scaring the perpetrator. But as she burst through the door, the room was empty. There was no where to hide and Terri knew that the room was empty, but she also knew what she had heard.

Anger subsided to fear and Terri felt herself drawn back towards the sofa and tv, but what she saw this time caught her breath in her throat.

Instead of the woman she had seen sprawled about her bed, the 28th picture now contained the image of a young child apparently crying, yet the background, her bedroom, remained the same.

POSTING GUIDELINES

First off, if you don't understand how this all works, please check out our help page.
It should answer most of your basic questions.

All authors are responsible for their own content. We don't write this stuff. You do. So feel free to use a little adult humour, but please don't go overboard, or we'll have to flag the story as mature content.
Second, if you're adding a chapter to an existing story, try and stick to the theme, back-story and characters of the original story as much as possible. This makes it easier to keep the storyline alive and kicking.
If you're writing a collaborative story, try not to write more than one or two segments of the same story at a time. It keeps the story fresher and funnier if you let others play along. :)
Posts need to be at least 140 characters long. That's about three average sentences, not too painful, but it prevents spamminess.
Finally, try not to kill off the main character in a story... at least, permanently. It can be pretty detrimental to the storyline — it's also useless, as someone is bound to revive the character.
If you find a problem somewhere, or see a bad posting, click the red report button on a story or user profile and report it to us!
Note: Please be careful if you spent a long period of time writing the same branch. It's entirely possible that someone else is completing the same branch as you, and in that case, since we don't lock posts while you edit, whoever posts first will "win" and you'll have to move your post elsewhere.
