"Why I'm No Longer a Park Ranger Anymore" Creepypasta

my normal shifts were during the day nine-to-five like most people but on that day we were short-handed on the night shift staff because the last person who worked during those hours had just quit we've been having a lot of people quit the night shift lately so that meant I had to cover weirdly enough I had never worked the graveyard shift before then and I was actually kind of excited for it I brought some coffee and a 5-hour energy with me because the hours ran from 10:00 to 5:00 a.m. and there was no way I'd make it that far naturally I got to my tower right before 10:00 p.m. when it was already pitch-black out and the cold summer night had fully set in the tower was fairly tall with several flights of stairs leading up to the top the entire thing was mostly surrounded by thick forests except for the trail that I came in from and a murky pond that was just to the right of one of the towers legs the pond itself was covered in those little lily pads and had algae floating around the surface it was actually somewhat large for a natural Lagoon I climbed up and all I could hear was the nonstop sounds of crickets frogs and the occasional owl when I hit the top I fumbled with my keys until I finally found the right one and went inside the singular room was small and square shaped three of the walls were mostly glass and the other one was opaque and had the door that I just walked through the roof went up like a pyramid for a short length until it peaked and it was completely made out of wood to my left was a nicely made bat and a nightstand with a lamp and a flashlight on top not like I'd be using the bed though on the wall next to that was my CB radio and communication stand which every one of those towers had next to that sat my refrigerator and microwave which was part of a small kitchen that extended to the other wall as well inside the kitchen section on the right wall were several cabinets some were small ones that held snacks and some canned foods and another set of large cabinets that I couldn't open for some reason which likely had vacuums and other cleaning supplies that were above my paygrade overall the tower was roomy I went over to the communication stand and did my standard check to make sure everything was working properly I called into the ranger station channel and SATA well Donny it looks like it's just you and me tonight Donny didn't say anything back so I figured he was just using the bathroom I went and grabbed the flashlight on the stand and reached into one of its drawers pulling out a set of binoculars from it I made my way out onto the balcony and check to make sure there were no fire hazards or any other kind of dangerous things over there once I checked that box off of my to-do list headed back inside and pulled out the chair from the communication stand and put it by one of the glass walls I grabbed a granola bar from one of the kitchen cabinets to munch on sat down and put the binoculars up to my eyes and looked over the surrounding forests it didn't seem like any animals were up and about and no birds were in the sky either I skimmed over a couple of clearings to make sure that no teenagers were off camping illegally then I went and peeked over at the far Ridge where I saw a snowman standing alone in the gap of the trees wait a second it was summer I turned back again to see it wasn't a snowman but some kid in a ghost costume it looked like the ones from Charlie Brown with the big black holes for eyes that look more like they were colored black than actually holes the kid was still and was staring right into my direction unmoving I couldn't see the kid's parents anywhere and by now it was rolling up on 11 o'clock so that meant something was off I broke contact with the kid and walked over to the radio calling into the station Donny you out of the bathroom yet I chuckled Donny was always good for a laugh hey there's some kid with the blanket walking around in the southeast sector they look alone talking about I think it's a costume it's one of those ghost things it's got black holes for eyes and stuff yeah can you check it out all right copy that I turned off the radio and crossed over to the nightstand grabbing the walkie-talkie once I had it i sat back down on the chair and put the binoculars up to my eyes zooming into where the kid was the ridge was empty no kiddin sight which I knew would make this a thousand times harder I pulled up the antenna on the walkie-talkie and dial to the right channel Donnie you hear me yeah I'm getting close to the sector now perfect that's where I saw the kid but I think they have moved since then well just check around and see if I can find anything I watched as Donnie came over the ridge waving his flashlight around in the dark until you looked towards the tower and shrugged nothing over here damn hopefully he turns up again until then I'll just notify the police and check with any missing reports all right Donnie's voice cut out and I saw his flashlight turn off in the distance the small illuminated spot where he stood was swallowed by darkness Donnie you there I heard no response rushed outside the door and around the corner to where I saw him I hollered his name we'll need to hear my voice I go back from the woods and that's when it hit me there wasn't a single other sound in the entire forest the crickets and frogs had stopped chirping and croaking the wind didn't rustle through the leaves everything was at a standstill I could hear my heartbeat throbbing in my ears and nothing else I moved my flashlight around the woods and some futile attempt to find him I was getting into that state of mind where I was so nervous that my throat started to close up and if I moved I felt like something very bad would happen I had to do something I turned around and as I did I glanced at the stairs below me at the very bottom stood a skinny horrific aliy angled woman she was tall dripping with water with black hair and dark murky blue skin that stretched across her bent and broken bones her gray dress was shredded and her black shoes were muddy and wet and her face her eyes were milky white and her mouth hung open like a snake like her jaw had been grossly broken she let out a blood-curdling an ear piercing scream of agony and began to shuffle up the stairs fast when I saw this I snapped out of my fear and I ran back inside slamming and locking the door behind me there was no way she could run that fast even if all of her bones weren't broken in the wrong directions I ran back into the kitchen and grabbed the largest knife I could find and then I pulled out the walkie-talkie again screaming into it Donnie where are you is anybody there then I heard the creaking of a door I slowly turned and I froze when I saw what was there the door to the tower was still there locked and shut and had been completely undisturbed what scared me was the giant cabinet that now stood open with a kid dressed like a Charlie Brown go standing just in front of it I stood there unmoving until I heard him II giggle I recognized that giggle I grabbed the sheet and ripped it off of one of Donnie's kids Marvin sporting a smirk in a walkie-talkie dad Joey I got him Donny and his other son laugh from the other side of the walkie I was mad but glad that I wasn't about to get murdered in this tower I grabbed his walkie-talkie and fired back more like pissed me off as what you did I hope you're happy yeah screw you too buddy that wasn't even me that was your stupid zombie chick who was that your wife my what from that far away you said it yourself it look like Charlie Brown not the ghost man the woman on the stairs she screamed and ran up them so that she could scare me into the tower hell she must have been an Olympic runner upon hearing that I quit the next morning and I vowed never to return to that forest again you [Music]
