Magic doesn't exist

chapter 1

"Run, run, run" I kept repeating in my head.
"Run even faster, this is not enough".
My breath was getting shorter and shorter, I don't know if I would have made it.
Tears streamed down my face.
Drops of sweat trickled down his spine.
The only thing I felt was the shortness of breath and heavy footsteps of mine and the thing that was chasing me.
Every now and then I turned around to check what it was, it was a black figure, against the light, it ran a few steps away from me, each time it seemed that it was getting closer and closer to me.
I was in a dense forest.
The environment was not very favorable to me, but I saw the end.
I saw the end of the path.
The latest efforts.
I could almost feel the creature's warmth.
Suddenly, a bang.
I turned and saw in human, with blood dripping from his mouth, over the creature chasing me.
I ran even further up to the exit of the forest.

I was safe.

The day after.

I didn't sleep a wink all night.
I was trembling just at the idea that the creature could find me, or I could just meet it.
Another doubt arose when I tried to figure out who that human figure was, who, however disturbing it might be, had saved my life.
"Camilla, come down, you have to go to school" my mother yelled from below.
"I'm coming".
I had dark circles and swollen eyes from crying the night before.
In front of the front door I was hesitant, I didn't want to go out, panic was rising, I couldn't go out.
"No mom, I don't feel well, I can't go to school" I told her with tears in my eyes, but she obviously didn't care, but I understand her being that she wasn't with me last night, and now I'm about to leave the house.

Just outside, I threw an eye into the forest, and perhaps for the suggestion I saw a boy, among the trees, staring at me.
A shiver ran down my spine.
But I ignored it so as not to upset my mother.

I avoid the painful day at school.

As soon as I closed the bedroom door, I threw myself on the bed and millions of thoughts invaded my head.
That creature resembled a giant wolf, never seen such a large animal.
And it was strange how although I often walked in the woods, I had never met that being.
But the thing that worries me the most is that sub-species of person.
It was like a ..
No, it is impossible, there are no magical creatures, there is no paranormal and no form of magic, let's say that there is nothing that goes against the laws of physics.
I snorted.
I couldn't give myself an explanation, it was as if that were the only one.
There are two options.
I could do some research in books or on the internet to check my concerns or take courage and go into the woods.
The most plausible idea is that it was a simple hunter who had killed the creature, but the blood from the mouth, that I could not understand.

I opened the computer and searched for "Vampire".
This is absurd, I thought.
I quickly closed the computer and threw myself on the bed.
Am I going crazy?
I have to sleep.
What I dreamed of that night traumatized me.
