My breath filled the sky with dense clouds of moisture as I passed the now blurring trees. They have been chasing us for around about half-an-hour. Felix is running beside me with a giant grin on his face. He must feel at home. Home, now what's home? Home is place we stay permanently and the people in it we stay permanently with, I think I'm starting to believe this is my home.

"They went that way!"

"No they went this way!"

Define the undefinable, if you can do that you can understand what it's like for the hunters to be hunted. Predators to become prey. It's quite funny to think about. 10 more minutes pass and we are completely lost from society, again. New face stops first out of breath, then Felix, then yours truly and finally Jeff. He's always been the athlete figure between us. We are in a forest thicker than the ones I remember being in when I was a child. Nobody spoke as everybody knew what each other would say. Looking back now there was nothing else I could have possibly done, 'this wasn't my fault' I told myself repetitively but I knew I had made some unwanted contribution.

Deaths scythe is just an illusion we have created to distract us from the fact we are the dangers we stereotypically fear. And am I in control of this fear? I suppose in some context I am...

"Stop daydreaming Jack" I was pulled from my own mind by Felix's hurtful tone.

"He seems to be the most interesting out of you all." My eyes were now focusing on what seemed to be a girls figure.

"You could call me interesting but I prefer the word intriguing." I was quick to reply yet knew nothing about the person I was talking to. Her face began to clear along with the fog surrounding us. It was the girl I killed before while voiceless went to the police. I fell backwards off the rock I was comfortably sat on, she chuckled at my reaction.

"I'm not that easily killed." I hold one of my knifes up ready to throw, "now, now steady.-"

"I'm not a bloody dog!" I shouted she sighed

"I'm here to help you not harm you."

New faces hand met mine as he began to push it down. I looked up and he looks down. Felix is trying not to laugh "is this some sort of joke to you!" I get up and shove past anybody who is in my way.
