In The Night Before The Dawn, A Boy Was Running From Something As He Looked Over His Surroundings. "Where Am I?" His Voice Echoed Throughout Than A Huge Black Figure Stepped In His Way And Took One Single On His Hand, The Boy Screamed In Fear.
"Ahhhh!"
He Woke Up Breathing Heavily And Sweating To See He Was In A Bedroom He Turned To See A Girl Next To Him Who Was Awake, "Ezra What's Wrong Did You Have A Nightmare?" The Girl Asked, She Was Wearing An White Shirt With Black Trousers And Black Shocks, They Were In A Bed That Had Cracks And Grass Was Growing More Inside. "Yeah I Had A Nightmare," He Said. "That's Okay Anyways We Need To Get Out Of The House." They Both Jumped Out Of The Bed, Ran To The Door And Closed It The Both Of Them Stood In The Outside Staring At The House That Was Now Covered In Green Grass "Where We Should Go?.." The Girl Asked As She Watched In Worry And Sadness, The Boy Turned His Head To A Forest With High Trees And An Bit Of Darkness In The Middle "We Can Go There Before It Catches Us." He Grabbed Her Hand And They Both Ran Into The Woods..
The Two Children Walked Along The Traces Of The Woods Until They Stopped To Catch A Break, "Where Should We Go?" She Asked While Breathing And Sitting Down The Boy Looked Around As He Noticed The Forest Was Darker Yet The Sun Was Up In The Sky He Looked At Her With An Worried Expression. "I Don't Know But We Can't Stay Here." He Grabbed Her Hand Gently And They Both Got Up, Walking Through The Woods As The Girl Started At The Shadows Around Them With Concern..
As They Walked They Both Heard An Another Footstep Behind Them, They Turned Around To See No One Yet The Sound Of The Footsteps And The Thought Of Something Or Someone Following Sent Fear And Worry In Their Mind But Ezra Kept Holding Her Hand And Ran Even Further In The Woods, "Don't Worry Indigo," He Said "We'll Leave This Area Soon." The Girl Had Faith And Kept Her Head High. Than On The Journey They Saw An Ghostly Figure With A Face Of An Girl Yet They Unable To Get A Good At Her When They Were Still Running, But Before They Headed For The Other Side An Fog Started To Blocked Them. "What's Happening?"
Indigo Asked, Looking Everything Turning White An The Same Figure Walked Toward Them With Glowing Eyes Indigo Slowly Backed Away And Held Ezra's Arm "Ezra We Should Go.." She Was Shaking And Shivering Before They Could Run Ezra Spoke. "Who Are You?" The Figure Open Its Mouth But The Words Are Too Silent To Understand As The Fog Become Stronger Making Everything Harder To See Indigo Could Hear A Roar Echoing While Ezra Heard Whispers Just Than A Black Bear With An Scary Appearance Came Up Behind Them. Both Of Them Screamed And Ran Away The Monster Was Following Its Black Eyes And Sharp Teeth Sent Chills Into Their Hearts But Than A Light Came Into The Monster And Hit The Three Of Them Than Everything Went Black..
Ezra's Eyes Opened To The Sky And The Sun Now Was Setting Indigo Got Up Slowly Looking At Him With Worry And Happiness, "Are You Okay? What Was That?" She Put Her Hands On His Arm And Both Of Them Realised That Their Hands Are Dirty And Cold And They Needed To Find A Fire, They Found An Setting Spot Both Tried And Scared Ezra Picked Up Two Sticks And Tried To Make A Fire. "How Do You Make Fire?"
Ezra Said "I Mean It Would Easy." Indigo Grabbed Two Big Sticks And Rubbed Them Together "Here You Rubbed Them Together And A Fire Is Out." They Both Struggled But Suddenly Fire Was Out And Indigo Smiled. "Ah There's It Is." And They Placed The Sticks In The Middle On The Ground..
The Fire Lighted Up The Darkness, Both Indigo And Ezra Sat And Were Hungry. "I'll Go And Look." Ezra Said As He Got Up, Smiled At Her And Walked Away To Find Food. He Searched For For One Minute But When It Seems To Be Hopeless And Knowing They Would Starved He Spotted An Chicken Laying On A White Plate, He Was Confused But He Took Them Both And Went To See Indigo. Indigo Was Tried Almost Going To Sleep, But Than She Noticed Ezra Holding An Chicken And A Plate, "Where Do They Come From And Why?" She Asked Leading Forward On Her Knees To Grab The Chicken. "Well I Don't Know But Still We Have Food."
"I Wish Mom And Dad Were There I Mean We Have Take Of Ourselves, Do You Think Dad Is Okay?" Indigo Asked With An Sad Look In Her Eyes, Ezra Looked At Her And Said "Yeah I Hope So." Indigo Moved Closer To Him. "And Mom?"
"I Don't Know But I Think She's Resting."
"When We Get Out Of This Forest What Will Happened To Us?" Both Of Them Stared At Each Other And Ezra Gave An Nervous Look, Indigo Held His Arm Gently. "Sorry I Asked That Question But I Guess We'll Have To Wait And See." They Both Smiled And Went Sleeping By The Fire..
On The Other Side Of The Woods, An Creature With Horns On The Top Of Its Head Walked On The Trail And Growled As It Followed The Foot Prints That Indigo And Ezra Left Behind..
