What was the silliest thing you ever did because you were afraid?

Answer 1

There was a huge, vicious dog in my neighborhood by a lake long ago. It was during the Viet Nam War and I was only 14. The boy who owned the dog went off to fight in the war and the dog got sick and went mad. The boy's parents couldn't bring themselves to putting that poor dog down, not, at east, until their son got home safe and sound some day. (He never did). Everyone in the rural neighborhood kinda understood. I loved my own sweet little beagle so much and couldn't imagine coming home from war and it wouldn't be there waiting for me. Every night, they let that poor mad dog loose in a fenced-in field. I babysitted every night until midnight and had to walk home by myself down that spooky road by that field. There weren't any street lights and the wind off the lake stirred the leaves across the road. It was a scary walk even before that dog started walking along the inside of his fence, growling viciously at me in the dark all the way home. One moonless night, walking home from my babysitting job, the dog wasn't there. I kept listening for him in the dark. What happened to him? Where was he? Had he gotten LOOSE? Oh, gosh, my imagination was going a thousand miles an hour . . .then . . .it wasn't imagination any longer. I heard him. He was on the road right behind me. I couldn't see him. It was too dark. But, you could hear his nails clicking on the pavement, keeping a safe distance behind me. I stopped and dropped to the ground to see if I could get a glimpse of him against a distanst light. OH MY GOD! I could see his paws. It was for real. I tried not to panic. But, I began walking faster, of course. I was still half a mile from home. There were no other homes between there and the safety of my family. But, as I picked up my pace, so did the dog. I got so scared. I walked faster and faster and faster, forcing myself not to panic and break out in a run. He'd have no trouble catching me in a footrace. The faster I walked, the faster his nails clicked on the pavement in the shadows behind me. I had never panicked in my life. I did then. I started screaming for my brothers and broke into a full dash. The dog broke out into a full canine run after me. I wasn't going to make it. He was upon me by the time I reached the head of my driveway. I fell into a huge puddle, covered my head and ears as best as I could to protect them from the inevitable attack. I started sobbing. I heard my family running. I waited, not daring to look up. He was standing over me, panting. His front legs were literally brushing against my tucked head. Nothing happened. Fearfully, because I just knew that if I peeked, he'd rip my face off, I finally braved a look and . . .my beagle wagged his tail and licked my face. It had been my own dog all along.
