Thornwood, a village which was calm and quiet over centuries. Ancient tales of Thornwood histories told fantasy stories throughout the generations. It embarked on the village journey when it reached till the modern era. Mountains, trees, houses everything was quite. The tropical forest was rest assured until a gust of a wind came in rushing between the branches making it twirl and break it into pieces. Mysterious creatures voices echoed throughout the dark forest. Nothing is clear. It was only the pitch dark was seen everywhere.

A teen aged young girl in her fourteens ran behind a rabbit which she thought she could catch it and pey it. Rabbit was cute, and it's fast running made it stuck in thorny bushes. Blood emitted from its furs. The blood oddness and smell torches in her nose. She stood there watching the poor rabbit in pain groaning and grunting. She stepped forward mounting slowly towards it in the aim of helping it. Eventually, a force of wind came in nowhere and rabbit got disappeared in seconds with leaves and dust sparkled in air. The whooshing  sound made her tremble. She closed her eyes till the dust settles in ground.

After a moment, everything was clear , she ran to the spot where rabbit got stuck in thorny bushes. The sight took her back, there was pile of blood and it's furs spread over mixed with blood . She close her nose with her tiny fingers and covered her mouth thinking it was her fault that rabbit got killed. Her tears dropped each second on her running back to home. Her sweat dropping each time and  she wiped it everytime with her glistening tears. The unknown midst of blood and sight of the rabbit getting snatched from the ground to air in speed shook her mind. Her heart thumbed in more speed. Her saliva was stuck. Cries got stuck in her lips quivering and her hands fiddling with her little frock that is on her till her knees. She dropped down to the floor near her bed and cried out. Hugging herself, she took her journal and she wrote by shaking hands.

Dear Journal
I witnessed a murder...it was grou some, like spooky stories, I felt like everything was turning upside down in that moment. I saw a rabbit got snatched and killed infront of me. I felt a thorn getting stuck in my heart by seeing the sight after its disappearance.
I felt like something is happening in the forest. I never come across since the day I started visiting the forest... It was strange...gushing nosies, movements, dust getting into air suddenly....evrything is unclear....

She closed the diary locking it and went to her bed as she need to go for classes. She is in middle school living in peace with no worries , with no nightmares. Covering  blanket over her body she closed her eyes, she knew it had become a nightmare.
