*I'm sorry if the last chapter was boring/confusing. I'm just trying to give a little history but now for the real deal! Lets meet some characters*
"Poppy" a voice called behind me. I quickly turn to see a large figure running toward me. As the sun was going down it made a glare around him not being able to make out his facial details. As he got closer I recognized that silly face "Brandon how have you been, haven't seen you for at least 3 runs." He grabbed me by the waist and pulled me close planting a kiss on my lips. As he pulls back all I can say is "I guess you really did miss me" a smile crosses both of our faces. Me being 5'0 he was a good foot taller than me, everyone thinks its cute. I do too until he takes something and holds it above his head so I cant reach it. "How have you been since I have been gone?" He asks holding me close. "Just training, I ran the last run so I should be off for a while." "You ran! You promised me you wouldn't run." He said pulling away upset. "Its not my choice to run or not, we all have to chip in and I was the only one who hadn't gone in my training group. The rest were newbies I could live with myself sending a baby runner into the woods." I replied grabbing his hand. He pulled it away quickly, "no, you fucking promised. Who fucking cares if a little shit gets killed running. The only one who matters is you. How are you so stupid." He started to yell. "Calm down you making a scene. What happened you never used to be like this." I said in desperation. All of a sudden I felt a pain to my left cheek. I fell to the ground grabbing my face which is red with heat. I heard people yelling and asking if I was alright but I was to in shock to do anything or say anything. How did he become this monster, their supposed to only be in the forest.
