I wake up to the sound of glass shattering, my heart racing. Groggily, I stumble out of bed, swiping at the darkness to find my way. I head towards the kitchen, irritation mounting as I wonder what my mischievous cat has managed to break this time.

As I reach the hallway, I freeze. The hair on the back of my neck stands up, and I feel a shiver run down my spine. The hallway is shrouded in darkness, the only light coming from the moon outside, casting eerie shadows through the shattered window. I hear a soft hiss behind me. I turn to see my cat, fur bristling and eyes wide with fear. It's then that I hear it: heavy footsteps, crunching over the broken glass.

Panic grips me as the sound grows louder, the footsteps running towards me. I can barely breathe, my mind racing. I glance around, looking for something—anything—to defend myself with. The footsteps are closer now, almost upon me.

Desperately, I reach for a heavy vase on the nearby table. My hands tremble as I lift it, ready to swing. The footsteps are in the hallway, mere feet away. I hold my breath, muscles tensed, ready to fight for my life.

Suddenly, a figure lunges out of the darkness. I swing the vase with all my might, feeling it connect with a solid thud. The intruder grunts and stumbles back, crashing into the wall. I don't wait to see if they're down for good; I grab my cat and sprint towards the door, my heart pounding in my ears.

Bursting into the night, I run to my neighbor's house, banging on the door frantically. They let me in, and I collapse inside, trembling and clutching my cat. The police arrive moments later, finding the intruder unconscious in my hallway.

As I sit in my neighbor's living room, wrapped in a blanket, my cat nestled in my lap, I realize just how close I came to a real nightmare. I stroke my cat's fur, grateful for the warning hiss that saved my life.
