Another 5 minutes freewrite: "THE SUGAR BOWL ALARM".

Welcome to another 5 minute freewrite challenge and you are all invited to join in the fun, and here is today's prompt from @mariannewest.

Sam heard the sound, it came from the kitchen, so he thought and so he went out to investigate what happened, because he was alone in the house and he's sure he double checked all the doors and windows and made sure theywere all securely locked.

On a second thought he just picked his military grade knife and stuck it into his short's waistband. He stepped out as quietly as possible tiptoeing until he got to the kitchen and saw the smashed sugar bowl, on the floor with the whole floor covered with the spilled contents of the bowl, he looked around but there was no one in the house, all the doors were secure, except the high window above the kitchen table.

As he was about going down the basement to check if the intruder was hiding there, he saw the shadow of the swinging, ducked and lunged himself at the masked man, and down the stairs they tumbled.

As they hit the bottom, the man was on top, and he was very heavy, he threw a punch at Sam, and man this really knew how to punch, Sam had to employ all the military skills he had and his training as an elite Navy SEAL unit member, came to fore but the man also fought like someone with some military training. A fight ensued, for Sam, he wanted to find out who the intruder was and what he wanted while the intruder wanted to beat him and escape.
