Mommy..
I'm scared...
..It's so dark..
Pulling my legs closer to my chest I sat beneath a large tree that hung over my head like a dark green umbrella as if to hide me from the dangers of the forest.
I trembled with fear of the night trying to calm myself I took deep breaths sniffling softly .
Grrrrr
I looked up quickly to see a coyote staring straight at me eyes glowing in the moonlight , fur standing straight into the air like spikes attached to its skin .
I started to whimper as I watched it making the stupid choice of running I took off in a fast dash deeper into the night my tiny legs pushing me forward as I cried and sobbed loudly feeling the beasts hot breaths right behind me..
then suddenly...
...Silence...
I stopped and turned hot tears still burning my eyes as I looked up to see a tall man wearing a black suit yet he had no face . No eyes , no nose , and no mouth .
"Are you alright little one?"
He asked me but in my shocked state I just stood there and whimpered rubbing at my eyes as I clenched the rim of my now dirty pale white dress in one hand .
He stood there hovering over me as suddenly I felt his hand ruffle my head and oddly all my fear and sadness was gone as he then picked my small weightless body up...
All I remember after that was waking up in my bed surrounded by my stuffed animals from various cartoons I got overly excited about and feeling the distinct weird burn on my lower back.
