Oh my! I have been reading here on WordPress who have confessed their blogs have evolved; let me add mine to the list.
First, being introduced to prompts/challenges, and then poetry; now, I am having great fun writing short stories.

Adding to the eerieness, the electricity ceased, while shadows caught my imagination off guard; being home alone at this time was quite unnerving!
Howling like a wounded Coyote, I heard the wind plunge against the house; the trees LEANed against the fence.
I jumped! I knew to keep calm is easier said than done.
YET!
Like a shot, the rain stopped. A few moments later, the front door opened, a voice said, “anything new.”
Sighing!
I replied, “just another boring day, mom.”
Love your story! Full of action and a great ending!
