Once again the day came and it was time to start another day in the woods. But today was different. The air had a cold dry feel to it and the clouds covered the sun darkening the woods all around. Jessy crawled out of the cave and needed to find water urgently. She hadn't eaten or drunken anything in almost 2 days. After doing some wandering around the woods close by she was able to find an old plastic bucket. She placed it just outside the cave hoping to gather water when it rains. Just then she saw something. It was a tall black figure standing a few hundred feet away looking at her. The figure was dressed in all black and the face was hidden by a black mesh. Jessy blinked to see if she was just imagining it. Sure enough when she opened her eyes again the figure was gone. 'your next'. A soft shaky voice whispered in Jessy ear. Just then she saw the same black figure run between to trees in front of her then disappear behind another tree. Then a few seconds later it did the same thing. The figure ran between two trees and hid behind the next. It moved with such speed it looked blurry. It wasn't human. Jessy ran through the woods hoping to get away but something grabbed her leg and forced her to the ground. When she looked back at what was holding her leg she screamed. 'Ahhhh!' Its face was pale and dead looking. it had maggots eating through parts of his face and blood ran from his eyes. Jessy kicked and screamed until it finally let go. She ran as fast as she could away but when she looked back it was gone. 'Ahhhh!' Jessy screamed. A figure all in black with back mesh over its face was right in front of her. She tried to run but she couldn't move. It was like she couldn't control her own body. Just then she started slowly walking toward it. But she wasn't doing it. Something Else was controlling her. Just before she was face to face with the figure it disappeared; And she could control herself again. But just then the world started to fade away. Blackness covered her eyes and she collapsed. She had somehow fainted.
