My submission:

The Fate of the Damned

'''Her soft footsteps echoed through the dark, wet alley as the last of the rain ceased to fall. A horrible, creeping feeling filled her stomach, as if some being of darkness awaited her before she reached the end of the path. Just as the fleeting thought left her head, she felt a cold, sharp pressure on her back. A raspy, darkness burdened voice spoke, and shivers went shooting down her spine. “Do what I say…” said the voice. The woman was so shocked, she couldn’t speak. Breath seemed to have left her when she needed it the most. The voice sighed, a sound filled with thousands of deaths, and centuries of spilled blood. One, short, final breath escaped her as the knife split her spine and ruptured her lungs. As consciousness escaped her, the figure she saw with her last breath was one of nightmares. The nightmare that plagued humanity for centuries. The monster that had chased her all her life. It was Death. '''
