Chapter Two - From Scare Contest To Wolf Attack
I head upstairs to get dressed. I pull on a black tunic and brown pants and my usual brown boots and black belt. I tie my hair back with a black ribbon. I then head downstairs and help my father pack. "I wish I could take you with me Noel." I smile at my father's whine. "Yes but who would watch the house?" His lips tremble before he grips me in a bear hug and cries. "Oh for heavens sake! It's only three days long!" I kiss his cheek and head for the door.
I walk down the dark street by myself, I wish I had worn long sleeves because it's cold. Suddenly a figure looms over me. I turn around in fear to see...nothing. Now I'm scared. I turn back around and head face first into something making me cry out in fear. I look up to see Antonio laughing. "Not funny!" I shout at him. "I'm sorry I couldnt pass up the opportunity. Especially since we are having a scare off at my party. By the way what did you get me for my birthday?" He talks waaaaay too much. "Scare off?" He nods. "Yup! We have to have a partner by the way. So will you be my partner Noel? What did you get me for my birthday?!" I sigh. "Fine. I'll give you your present when we get there." Think fast Noel, what do I do for a present?! "Aw but I want it now!" He is like a child! Also, I have nothing to give him. I know what'll make him happy but I'm reluctant to stoop that low. He looks at me with puppy dog eyes. Ugh! I stand on my tip toes and kiss his cheek. "Happy?" He smiles and hugs me which makes me warm. "Very!" I'm gonna hate this, but it's cold. "Can you, urm, would you mind staying this way until we get there? It's cold." His grin widens which scares me. "Of course." With that his grip tightens as we walk.
When we get there I imediately pull away from him which makes him frown, but I dont care. We go inside and I get a full blast of the noise, smell of alchohol, and color. I was so overwhelmed I stumbled backward into Antonio. "Easy there." He helps me up. I thank him then he shouts to everyone, busting my eardrums, "Time for the scare off to begin!" He grins at me. "Pick your partner but it can't be me because I already have one." He takes my arm and drags me to a table so I'm not trampled on by the frenzied people searching for a partner. He hands me a drink, alcohol. I push it away. "I don't drink." He is frowning an awful lot today.
When everyone was ready we went into the woods and Antonio explained the rules. "Each team will try to scare the other team out of the woods. Last one out wins." With that I began my walk with Antonio. (What would you do if I ended it here?)
We walked what felt like forever and everything in the world kept jumping out at us and Antonio would pull me into his arms saying he'd protect me. So in otherwords, he was annoying times one thousand. Suddenly he put his arm out to stop me. Is he going to do it again? This time he grabs both my shoulders, and throws me to the side as a wolf jumps between us. Antonio screams and runs away. Typical. I jump away as the wolf attacks and run in the opposite direction. I lose my ribbon in the trees and my hair falls in my face. I kept running hearing more and more wolves joining the one. I felt teeth sink into my right ankle and I fall. I felt them on top of me, clawing and scratching at me. I found a branch and temporarily beat them away. I got up and ran for my life. Everything hurt. My clothes were torn and my hair was out of control. I saw something ahead that could possibly save my life. A gate. It would keep the wolves away from me. "Please, please be unlocked!" I reached the gate. It was locked. "Help me please! Someone please help me!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. I could hear the wolves closing in. I tripped and banged my head against a rock. I lost consciousness knowing that I was going to die.
