It felt as if you were walking in circles. You could swear you have seen that rock just a few minutes ago as you walked by it. The leaves were softly rustling underneath your shoes.
You had no idea how much you had walked for.
But the sky was beginning to turn a shade darker than it was.
And you were just turning in circles, slowly losing hope you'll find your way out of here by the end of the day.
Because the end if the day was nearing and you were still stuck in the same place.
The steps you took were careful, becoming even more so with the receding sunlight, always looking warily over your shoulders as you strolled.
You were afraid of spotting Lawrence somewhere suddenly, afraid he'd spot you before you him.
It took you a few more steps among the trees, the leaves and moss creating a soft blanket, you didn't produce a lot if sound. That's why you immediately heard the screams.
"Y/n? Y/n! Where did you hide, dear?" Lawrence's voice echoed through the forest right into your ears. You could tell he was coming your way.
Frantically, you looked around you.
Where do I go now?
The answer came to you right away. Your legs were still tired from the earlier sprint and you doubted you could force them to run again. Besides, running could cause much more sound to be made, and therefore give away your location.
No, you'll climb up a tree and hide in the top.
And so you did just that. You used to climb on trees as a kid countless of times and the ability luckily seemed to preserve, so you knew how to climb with ease.
The leaves in the tree got thicker just a couple branches above the ground and so you didn't climb all that far up, but also didn't stay too much at the bottom. You settled on one of the branches, holding onto it as you leaned your back against the trunk.
Now, you needed only to wait.
And when his figure finally came into view as he walked in between the trees, looking around in all directions in search of you, you held your breath and didn't avert your gaze elsewhere but him.
You could see he was carrying something and squinted your eyes to see the object better. It was long and dark, he held it with both hands across his chest.
It looked like a... rifle?
He's hunting me as if I was an animal?
"Y/n, I know you're here! Show yourself," he kept calling out into the air, his voice becoming much more prominent and clearer the nearer he got to you.
"Y/n? My sweet little dear Y/n?" His voice was excessively sweet.
He kept walking towards the tree you hid in.
No, there is no way he can see me, you assured yourself. You were afraid to even breathe as the create the minimum amount of sound and not let yourself get noticed.
Because now, that he was carrying the rifle with him... you were sure he'd kill you despite his innocent appearance.
All of a sudden, he stopped. You looked at him, trying to predict his next movement.
But what he did took you by surprise.
He straightened out his hands in the split of a second, the bullet flying fast through the air as he shot into the sky.
The shock was so big you jumped up, startled, letting go of the branch causing you to fall down onto the ground, the impact of hitting your body from such height making you slip into unconsciousness.
