Devil's Moon

Chapter 1

Nothing much at the store. Or anywhere else for that matter. Nobody knew a thing. Which didn't help. Even though Taylor wanted to forget about the incident, she couldn't. She knew she had to keep going on with her day but it just wasn't happening. Taylor switched from her gentle jog to a full out run. She knew she could handle the exercise. She was pretty athletic.

What Taylor didn't know at that moment was that someone, no something was watching her. A demon to be precise. And it was planning her demise.

Taylor reached the town hall before she finally slowed down. She hadn't meant to run for so long but she was just so wrapped up in her own thoughts that she didn't realize where she was. But that was before she ran into the lamp post...or the tree...or the wall. So long story short Taylor hadn't been watching where she was going. But Leavenworth was a small town and she knew the place like the back of her hand.

Anyway, on with the day! First, Taylor went to the bakery and got herself something to eat. Then she went to the woodwork store to pick up her mothers new chopping board. Next the metalwork store to get her horseshoe that was finally finished after five weeks. Finally her mind was off of the earlier incident.

Now she was just wandering. Nothing really fun to do around here. She didn't really have any friends. She didn't fit in with any of the girls in the village and to hang out with the boys.........not a fun experience to say the least. So she just.........wandered.

<<~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>>

Taylor was heading home. The day went faster than she thought and it was already sunset and also her curfew. Turn right, third street on the left, right again. Taylor was almost there when suddenly........

SWOOSH

A dart buried itself into her left calf and sent her vision swirling and her body tumbling and the last thing she remembers is a dark figure snatching her away before everything goes blank.....................
