the river people

Alone in the house, I looked out the window of my room before I went to bed. I stared at the river behind the house where we fish and saw what looked like really dark rocks with white patterns on them, they almost look like humans. I had never seen them there before but I decided to go to bed at ten o’clock just like I always do. I woke up to my phone ringing, it was my dad. “Son I want you to get the keys to the car and leave NOW!” “Dad why whats going on which car?” “I don’t have time to explain but little buddy… the river people have found us!” “Where are the keys I can’t find them?” “Listen I want you to take my truck there is a second pair of keys at my desk take them and go to the nearest gas station. I’ll meet you there son I have to go.” Why would people come after us and what are river people! I grab the keys and go outside where the truck is. I get in and start going down the long driveway. I see people standing on the side of the entrance with spears and AK’s and they start to chase the truck. At that moment I floored it and got away. They looked exactly like those human sided rocks in the river. At that moment I realized what I saw before I went to sleep. I kept driving and there was a bright red car with it’s brights on coming directly at me not stopping. There was no where to go, it was a one way street. I lowered the plow and went just as fast into the car. I flew right over me and I kept going. My Dad calls again so I pull over. “Son where are you, did you see river people, are you hurt?” “They were on the side of the driveway with spears and some just tried to ram into the truck but I used the plow.” “Ok how far are you?” “About one mile.” “Alright I meet you there just wanted to check in.” I turn on the truck and keep driving. I see more of the people I saw before but in a larger quantity. They started yelling and one of them jumped in the bed of the truck. I start swerving and he flew out of the truck. I speed away where the gas station was and pulled in where I saw my Dad's Camaro. I got out and his door opened. I stared, I was shivering with what I was seeing. One of the river people came out of the Camaro. The plates were the same as my Dad’s. Then all heard was a blast and everything went black. I am the only person that is living that has seen the river people. The River People are now in a river in Villa Park where they kidnap anyone who sees them.
