Silence Kills the Night

Crying. I had no idea where it came from but it was there, splitting my skull in two like a pick through ice.
Focusing on the sound I became more concerned. It sounded like it came from inside my house.
I got out of bed and walked downstairs, creeping into my dining room, looking around, still listening.
No one there.
I checked the whole floor and found no one. With a deep breath, I creeped down to the basement.
It’s louder.
Shaking, I looked around. Two glowing orbs blinked back at me from the depths of the room.
It’s silent.
