Chapter 3

For the past week Avala and I have been advancing little by little deeper into the woods however as far as we go, there is an overwhelming sense of dread that goes over us. Today we went back to the woods. With my crossbow in hand and Avala having her camera and this time a bat with her. We went even deeper in but as we went deeper into the forest we heard the all too familiar whistle but this time there was no shadow that passed over. We thought this was odd but continued deeper. We started to feel the dred but this was also followed by having a blinding head pressure and I started to hear a loud ringing in my ears that pounded my head. I fell to the ground in pain while Avala tried her best to help. The head pain was so bad that I felt like I was going to black out. Just before I did I saw a dark shadow running towards us then darkness.

It was like a dream. I was sitting in some dark shallow liquid while all around me was black and white. It was empty besides a figure of what looked like a man in a suit. I tried to stand but when I did I was pulled deeper into the liquid. Everytime I fought I was locked into place. As I sank deeper and deeper the man began to laugh. I soon was overthrown with darkness but I soon heard my mom call me. I soon got out of the darkness into a large room where I saw my mom arguing with someone about the thing that they needed to stop. There were two loud pops followed with pleading of mercy and what sounded like rushing water. I tried to call for my mom but panicked until I was dragged into a white room with the whistling all around me and the overwhelming dread. I fell to my knees in pain. The pain was much worse to the point I screamed to stop.

I jolted awake screaming in horror. I looked around frantically to find Avala and my brothers around me still in the woods. I jumped up and told my brothers and Avala to get out of the woods. We ran out, my adrenaline still high and began to walk home. The whole while Avala and my brothers questioned what I saw. I told them we have to go to a safe place. We got home shut and locked the doors and closed the curtains then sat down. I asked Avala what happened after I passed out. "Your brothers came running towards us which startled me at first." she said. I looked at my brothers and questioned how they knew where we were. They ignored it and asked what I saw. I explained the things I saw and heard. Around this time it was 7:30 and Avala needed to get home before her parents found out. I told her to not tell anyone and trust anyone, not even her parents. She promised and left.

I turned to my brothers asking them again how they knew where we were. Mark said that he and Jax had been watching me. He told me it was to protect me. I looked at Jax who said nothing and said if he believed me now. " Morgan I've always known," Jax said. " I'm not an idiot Morgan, of course this town is strange and one thing I know is that it's dangerous." "But if you knew about it why didn't you just tell me. Instead you let me see things that I never wanted to see and fantasies I've never wanted to hear." "Morgan there is something you have to understand mom and dad were hiding something and I believe that their death is something to do with this town and what you saw in your vision." I wanted to keep talking but our grandad pulled up the driveway. We looked at one another and agreed not to tell grandad and keep it between us not knowing who we could trust.
