The Woods

I Don’t Know How Long I’ve Been Standing Here, Alone In The Dark, Alone In The Woods. I Can Feel His Presence; He Would Soon Do What I Am Dreading. But I Am Too Terrified To Move, I Feel His Red Eyes Burning Into The Back Of My Neck. Suddenly A Breath. I Spin Round Feeling My Neck Where The Hot Breath Had Been Released. Nothing.
A Crunch Of Leaves Makes Me Turn. A Squirrel Freezes As I Point My Sword At Its Alarmed Face, It Scurries Quickly Away, Something I Wish I Could Do.
I Look Up At The Sky-Scraping Trees, Each One Twirling Within The Next, But This Is No Time To Admire The Giants Of The Forest.
I Can Hear Joyful Shouting In The Distance, Shouting What? I Don’t Know. The Shouting Stops And A Scream Echoes. It’s Him. But He Is Agile; He Will Be Back Here In A Matter Of Seconds.
Pain And Anger Course Through My Veins. He Is Close Again. Very Close Now.
I Turn To See His Firey Eyes Staring At Me. I Know No More.
