March 21st 2008, it was 6 A.M, A cool and blue Saturday morning. The sun had not yet risen above the treeline. The near by Ophelia creek was babbling and churning" whippoorwills called in the upcoming day. The town of Manitachie Falls Arkansas slept peacefully. None of the residents knew that a teenage boy was being chased through the forest none of them knew he was running for his life. Matthew Sager was afraid he was deathly afraid! And tired he had been awake all night and for most of the night he had been fighting for his life. He was a skinny boy of sixteen he had red hair and kept it nicely groomed and he always flipped his bangs up in a stylish manner. He was 5ft7 and weighed 120lbs, he had very little muscle tone the morning of march 21st the only thing on his mind was running for his life. "I have to find somewhere to hide he thought" or maybe I can make it out of these woods and on the road someone has to come by. I can't die out here! Behind him he heard footsteps someone was running after him and getting close too. Oh God he's getting closer I've got to speed up" matthew screamed to himself, if he catches me he'll kill me like he did Krystal and Wylie and Delia. Matthew's mind raced back to the horrible way he had seen his friends die krystal had her throat slashed, the blood from her open wound had sprayed everywhere it had made Wylie scream and try to run. But it did no good he had thrown the knife at her and it hit her in her lower back knocking her down, Delia and Matthew had run to the. Backroom of the cabin they were at And tried to barricade the door. In the living room of the cabin they heard footsteps and Wylie pleading for her life. PLEASE STOP PLEASE Don't JUST LEAVE ME ALONE PLEASE". Then she called the killers name! Then a thud and a blood curdling scream and the sound of a blade sawing threw flesh and tendon and bone! Delia screamed and covered her ears. Matthew grabbed her and shook her" shush! shut up do you want him to find us he said looking at her! No but we're dead anyway he killed Danny and drew and krystle and now Rylie Matthew looked at her we don't know drew is dead he could've gotten away I mean we didn't see him kill him". Delia looked at matthew sniffling, she stammered! w...why is h..he doing this? She asked. Matthew shrugged I don't know I guess he's been the one doing the killings around town the whole time. Matthew started to say something else but his words were cut off! Something was slamming against the bedroom door. Delia screamed matthew tried to quite her but she kept screaming, he ran to the bedroom window and forced it open he put one leg out of it then looked at Delia. Come on he said she had crouched down besides the bed she shook her head no" for God sakes Delia come on before he breaks the door down she shook her head again. The door began to Crack Matthew looked at it and look at Delia then jumped out the window!. Once he landed on the ground with a thud,he looked at the window and saw Delia standing there" hurry up Delia jump it's not that far down she looked behind her the door was giving away. She put her leg out of the window and was about to jump with something pulled her back into the bedroom she screamed. And Matthew ran he heard Delia scream and scream and finally he was too far away to hear it! He was so tired. He felt himself weakening every step he ran" no I can't I have to keep going I can sleep when I get to a police station or the hospital," yes he thought I will make it I'm going to get out of this nightmare. I'll see this fucking animal get the gas chamber and I'll be fine I just have to keep. His last words were cut off he fell facedown in the forest floor getting a mouthful of foliage and dirt! The air was knocked out of him for a second he tried to stand but his ankle buckled and he fell. The footsteps approached him' he tried to crawl away but strong hands grabbed his ankle he screamed out. A male voice whispered in his ear" hey baby did you fall down? Matthew tried to push back in revulsion. But the hand gripped his shoulders and flipped him over! He was face to face with his attacker . Matthew looked at him and said just do it already I don't want to suffer! The killer smiled at him and bent down and kissed him. Baby I don't wanna kill you I love you" matthew laughed you killed all my friends so why not kill me? you killed all those people in town didn't you?. The killer looked at him that doesn't matter baby I did it for us your friends didn't like me and you know how people in town were I had to show them! Matthew looked up at the boy he once loved, and just cried. Stop it Matthew I really do love you please don't cry we can be together now! Honestly we can go far away from here and it'll be ok. Matthew spit in the killers face and laughed I'd rather die than be with you! The killers bright green eyes went wide with anger and he brought his knife up over Matthew's head . I love you baby he said then stabbed the knife into Matthew's skull the end came quick!,
