Through The Forest

“What time is it now?” Katie asked. But this time her response from Ron was just an annoyed glare over his shoulder. They were hiking deeper into the forest and it was getting darker. “Isn’t it time for us to stop and camp?” she asked nervously a she looked around for anythig that could hurt her. Ron continued on his mission to find the stream he knew he heard just a few yards ahead. It seemed to be getting louder as he approached the clearing. They wandered into the opening to find a field of clover. No stream, no trees, nothing. “What now fearless leader?!” Katie furiously but desparately asked Ron. He looked at her once again and responded, “Oh ye of little faith, follow me.” He then turned around to go back into the forest on the same path they just came out of but abruptly stopped. “What is….” Katie started but was interrupted with a demanded “Hush!!” Katie focused on the forest that was now quiet. No small breeze rustling the leaves. No movement whatsoever. Nothing but dead silence and darkness.
