It was a somber night in the small town of Abigail. You were a young adult roughly about 19 years old. You were well known in the town and not for a good reason. You were known to be very hermit like and isolated. Even your part time job as an herbalist at the local pharmacist. You were very shut down towards others; you rare to never talked to anyone the only reason they kept you was because there was no one the refill your place since you had just graduated college an couple months before the job started. But at the present your bike had been stole outside of work so you had to walk home along the dirt road.

You sighed your feet and legs were killing you and you had 20more minutes to walk to get home on the small two leveled house you rented for cheap. As you let your mind drift off you after you had placed your ear buds into your ears so you could listen to music from your Ipod. As you walked the dirt road you failed to notice the bear cub you walked by. You heard the sound of feet pounding which had you glance over your shoulder to see a bear running at you. You went wide eyed before sprinting full tilt away from the charging mother bear. You run into the forest hoping to lose the beast in the thick of the tree’s.

You quickly found that you were on an cliff river. You panting heavy hearing the roaring sound of it’s bellow. You whipped your head over your shoulder still running to see if the bear was still after you. As you ran you lost your footing which caused you to fall side ways off the cliff into the river below not before knocking your head on one of the branches that was on the cliff side. Your last thought was the coolness of the river as you were plunged into darkness.

In the burst of pain you gasped spitting up water some of the that was still in your lungs. You trembled looking around; You found that you were on the river bank and that your ribs and arm was hurting badly. You must have either broke one or two of your ribs and sprint or crackled your arm. You pulled yourself out of the water with your other okay arm which helped you sit up so you could look around better. You must be very down river you didn’t know where you were. The tree’s seemed purplish in color you looked up to see clouds you figured it was because of that. As you got up you called out.

“Hello! Can anyone hear me?! HELP!” You bellowed loudly like a lost little lamb you hoped you could be heard by someone.

You paused for a minute before you started to move. You remember in public school that you should never leave the area it would be easier for rescue to find you. But something inside of you told you to move to leave the area. You followed that gut feeling and started to walk making a trail so if someone found it they could find you. You shook your hair lightly as you kept calling for help. You stopped after a while figuring it was useless. After what felt like forever walking you came saw a camp fire light in the distance. You figured it was that because it was a low level fire and as very small. You ran to it happy that you found someone to help you get home.

As you got closer you could heard mumbling as in talking and a sound that you figured was laughing. As you hit the camp you stopped died in your tracks.What you found wasn’t people but creatures horrible looking scary creatures. They looked at you as you sis them. It was a glance off till one grabbed something.

You took a step back as they got up. This creatures had horns at looked like candy corn. Sharp long fangs and the grayish sin you had ever seen.And there eyes were blue with yellow scleroses.They were tall and terrifying you gulped smiling acting civil; “H-hey look I’m lost i need-” An stinging sensation was felt on your cheek. You touched your cheek to see blood on it. You seen them glare at you before they started to ran at you yelling. You backed away from running as an arrow bedded into the tree where you just were. As you ran one of them had caught up to you swing a stick which transform into a club which whacked your left ankle. You cried out in pain before having to mental pushing pasted it. You did start to limp which let another caught up to you. After a good couple of minutes you were bleeding and bruised.

You sniffled in pain trying to keep the tears at bay. You had lost them by dipping into the thicker trees. You stopped once you hid an desert. You started to cry then where on earth were you. You looked back hearing a cry or two which caused you to move forward into the desert for protection. You gave up after a while confused on where you were going and looking for water or shelter or both. After wandering for a while you found a little pound. You sighed collapsing onto your knees and greedily drinking the water. After the painful feeling in your stomach you stop rolling onto your back closing your eyes for a second. You sighed then hissed as your ankles painfully throb you opened your eyes and eyed the pond.    

You sat by the pond with your legs in the cool waters to help with your bruised ankles it was very painful to walk. Bruises, cuts, rip clothes and dried blood covered our body. You didn’t understand how it had happened you had finally found a village only to find these dangerous creatures trying to get you. Where in the world were you. You leaned against the rock looking up at the night sky three different colored moons hung heavy in the sky. Tiny purplish gray clouds passed moved under and over the moons. You kept staring at the sky so absorbed in it.

This was like a horrible dream that you could wake from. You sighed again this time looking down at your hands before covering you face trying to compose yourself. You mumbled lightly at yourself. “Shit only rolls when clumped Y/n...it could be worse.” You moved your hands from your face having had gain your sanity back some. You pull out your Ipod you figured if you were going to last that you have one comfort left. Sometime to make you feel whole before handing bust card hand back to fates deck. You flipped it to the back ground music of your piano.

You heard the steady beat of the one note; this caused you to look up at the sky before starting to sing. “From my mouth there falls the seed. Through my blood there spread the branches....twisted and turned there grows the tree...soon be torn the ocean glows...where are you now? Where are you now?” You closed your eyes bathing in the moonlight tears trickling down your cheeks.

So absorbed failing to notice the presents of others. “...Soon be found the dry ground by my side...You lie to sleep without fear without a doubt...Like a dream...just like a dream...just like a dream...like a dream we are all torn...as the ocean glows...” You opened your eyes before clicking the Ipod off.

You sniffled heavy before you rubbed the tears from your eyes trying not to break down. You stopped before looking at your lap to help you control yourself. You were about to gain control when you heard an branch step. You whipped your head wide eyed in terror. It was one of he creatures. He had the same candy corn horns, gray skin, sharp fangs, and yellow scleroses. But it’s eyes were red. He looked as shocked as your were terrified. You started to tremble you couldn’t ran anymore. You had no energy and your ankles were hurting to much know. You felt tears prick your eyes as you looked down at your lap. This was how you were going to die. He knelt next to you. You caught movement in your side vision which caused you to flinched away from the creature as its hand moved.

It held out its hand to you which caused you to look at it...them. You looked up at the sky before your hands then at it again. You hesitated as you placed your hand in its bigger one. He spoke to you which caused you to tilt your head. It wrapped its fingers through yours giving you a softer look. It spoke again this time it confused you. It seemed to be waiting for answer.

“I...I don’t understand you...” you said sadly and quietly.

It looked at you before having an almost defeated look. It seemed to call the others behind it as the others which caused them to come closer. It touched your leg which caused you to look down it must of wondered if you could walk then? You grabbed its hand and placed it in the water touching your ankles before shaking your head. It seemed confused before one of its companions behind it spoke. The taller one with the crock horn spoke to it. It seemed to get what your were trying to say. He pulled his hand softly to let you to let itself go. You let your hand off its before it wrapped your up in its cloak. You blinked before being swamped in the cloak. The hood covered your eyes which caused you to move your head up to look at it. You heard a chuckle from the smaller long haired creature who smiled at it.

It seemed to nod before getting up you gave a short gasp and stiffen as it picked you up cradling you to its chest. It seemed to shush you quietly its chest seemed to rumble in an soft purring sound. You relaxed lightly before it started to walk its companions following it. You looked at each other studying them softly as they spoke to each other. You found the taller whiter one had great words since they all listened to her. The smaller long haired one seemed very happy and it like to talk a lot but the yellow one seem to see it studying him. He was very quite in general even with his answers. You looked up at the one carrying you. It had red eyes you noticed and unlike the other three didn’t seem to have an symbol on its clothes. It caught you looking at it which caused it to smile at you flashing its teeth.

You looked down before leaning your head against its chest your ear was over what you believed its heart since you could heard the it pumping. You unconsciously cuddled closer to listen it seemed to help you relax more. This caused you to think and wondered why they were so nice. This thought also caused pondered this for a while; as your mind started to drift off you were lulled to sleep by his breathing and heartbeat.
