I walked on the barren path to the bus stop. It was through the woods. The woods surrounding my house were dark. Mangled bare trees stretched over the sky. I loved coming through this trail. It was dark. and i felt like i belonged. My mom didn't like me in these woods because she's paranoid. I kicked pebbles and the sound shown out over the silent forest. The quiet usually comforted me, but right it was slightly unnerving... "crackle...crackle..." i stopped in my tracks. nobody should be in these woods. I glanced around and clamped my hand down on my backpack strap. Shadows bounced over the pebbled trail. I braced myself to run. I heard a loud growl, and i closed my eyes and ran, then BOOM. Why the f..ck did i close my eyes?! I was horrified, and on the ground. I looked up to see a large being... a black being. No, it was starting to fade, it was a shadow.
