I trudged along the soft, damp moss of the forest path wiggling my toes at the feel of the new ground. The tree's soft whisper against the wind was like a lullaby, soothing and warm. It was so welcoming and calm. I spread my arms out wide feeling the wind against my skin, the feeling of security was all around when, abruptly, everything changed. My light smooth steps, turned to rough ridged stomps on the tough, rock path filled with twigs. I could no longer hear the tree's swaying movements with the breeze, they were replaced with the snapping sound of twigs being crushed behind me. For a second I could have sworn there was someone following me, like my crunching foot steps were not alone.
I jerked my head to get a quick glimpse of what I thought was a tall man, towering over me, but I soon came to realize it was just a thin tree, bending close to close to the path. Frightened of my surroundings, I began to sprint. The eerie dark, green forest past in a blur beside me. I felt betrayed, like the sweet, welcoming forest had tricked me, lured me into this hell I was now trying to escape. There was still some light left in the sky, quickly being submerged by deep gray, smokey clouds. I tumbled down onto the ground grazing my knee against the stone on the ground, I felt burning sensation on my leg after the fall but i got up and run. I whiped my head back to see if anyone is following me a shadowy figure ran towards and I fell over as I couldn't get up as the pain on my leg is too painful. A male figure came into view he was tall towering over me with a broad shoulder his face was beautiful even though it was dark but the full moon shines it light down onto the forest.
''Please don't hurt'' I begged whiled trying to get away from him.
'' I'm not going to hurt you, I promise'' he whispered to me, giving me a smile. 'My name is Liam, I saw you walking in the forest while I was driving and want to see if you're safe' he expain to me giving me his hand so I can stand up. Liam gently pull me from the damp ground, I immediately fell nto his arm as I cant stand propperly. A warm arm wrapped tightly round my waist making sure that I dont fall again.
'So now you know my name what's your?' He asked with a slight smile.
' I-I dont know' I replied
