Part 4 - Second note

I fold the note and tuck it into my blazer pocket before running on-wards. I have a plan, not much but it'll have to do: Find any evidence about him to report him to the police later and if hes a killer there should be his victims somewhere meaning there MIGHT be survivors so i'll search for them along the way. Both them reasons need evidence, good thing i have my phone with me to take pictures or recordings. Also, i need to find my way out of here...

I was lost in train of though as i stop and look around me... Where was i? Oh great, now ive got myself even more lost than before! I quickly pick up pace and run past trees upon trees, passing a large container and-

wait... container?

I ground to a halt, almost tripping from the sudden reaction. I back up and peer among the trees to find a bright red container which shines from the sunset. I quickly run towards it but in the blink of an eye, the guy appears. My eyes widen in sudden shock but don't realize till the last second, therefore, i force my feet to the ground and falling forwards straight onto my hands and knees... Not a good move ESPECIALLY if he wants to kill you...

"Well" he gives off a small laughs and leans closer to my face "You wish to beg for your life?"

"In your dreams" i reply which catches his attention

"no?" he tilts his head in my direction "So why on your hands and knees?" He says with his eerie tone

"There's something called 'slipping' you know" i roll my eyes

"And theres just plain stupidity which is you" he lares back and leans closer, placing an arm under my chin and forcing me to look at him "...and i must say, pretty at the same time and bold. No one has EVER talked to me like that..."

With those short words, i feel slightly easier and more confident... Will he not kill me then?

"...But i will make you your the last" he laughs evilly

...Nevermind, cratch that idea and calmly and quietly... GET THE HECK OUTTA HERE!!!

Swiftly,i leap back off my feet and stand upright and face him. His tall figure reminds me of the woodland trees and arms like the branches. With the quick examination through my mind to record what his identity looks like before taking a step back...

"So, whats in the container?" i confront

"Which one" he hisses back

With those two words, i look behind him and notice thrice as many as before. I rub my eyes to make sure i wasnt seeing things but yep, they were really there... Since when did the others get here? I swear there was only one just a moment ago...

"...Any of them, whats inside them?"

"Why don't you find out" he holds his arms in a gesture as if to say 'see-for-yourself'

I dont ignore his offer. I walk past his, not brakung eye cotact at all just in case he tries to make a grab for me. Once out of view behind the container, i turn my head and confront the doors of them. I tilt my head in confusion to find another note...

On the note is a child-like scribble of a circle with two crosses on it and above and below the picture reads: FOLLOWS
