It was about 8:30PM when I was sitting by the passing river on a big bolder in the middle of the bush, I had a tent set up and a fire going the bolder I was sitting on was about 500 meters from where I had set up my tent. As I look over thinking about going back to my tent to feed my dog I see a man in my tent, he is looking through my belongings I start to feel anxious.

I thought to myself about going over to see the man and question him but what if he was dangerous? I'm sitting here still thinking about if I should go there or if he would just go away. I start to wonder if this mysterious man is lost, but if he's lost I should call the police.

I keep watching the man wondering what he is doing in my tent, he comes out of my tent taking big slow steps he stands by the fire then he pulls out a knife I start to feel the sweat dripping down my face. I feel somethings g touch my arm I anxiously turn around only to see.... My dog I let out a big sigh of relief then I turn back to watch the man.

When I turned back the man was walking out of my tent with big slow steps again, only this time he has a plastic bag in his hand, he's saving it around as blood slowly drops from it.

I start to feel very insecure and worried, he opens the bag and pulls out..... Two pieces of steak, he puts them in a pan over the fire and walks behind the tent.

I turned back to hug my dog only my dog wasn't there, I turn back and standing above me was this man dressed in all black, in his hands was my dog but he was dead with blood pouring out of him.

I screamed and ran away as fast as I could in complete horror I heard the man say something but I was in to much shock to hear what he said, I kept running as fast as I could in fear of my life but the man just kept chasing me I couldn't get away from him!

My heart was jumping out of my chest, I couldn't possibly run anymore so I jumped behind a bush. I heard leaves crushing under the feet of the man, he was getting closer and closer. I heard a Big Crunch like a bone snapping so I quickly looked to see what the noise was only to see, my dogs head being ripped off.

The tears of fear and horror started dripping down my face I tried not to make a sound but I couldn't help my self i screamed, I ran as fast as I could to try get away from this horrible mystery man.

No matter what the man wouldn't give up he just kept following me, I ran Andean as fast as I possibly could until I finally saw a person I quickly but quietly whispered I need to call the police but the person didn't have a phone I told them to run away and hide.

I kept running, I was loosing my breath and still thinking of how that cruel man killed my dog and then snapped his head off, I was drowning in tears, I could t see properly, I fell over a large tree stump, as I was falling I knew I was about to die I thought of how much I had wasted my life, how much I missed my dog and how much I wanted my family back, as my tears streamed down my face I was struggling to breath.

I finally hit the ground covered in dead leaves, I laid there for a while, thinking I was dead until I felt someone touch my wrist, checking my Pulse. I opened my eyes in fear that the person touching my wrist was the man chasing me.

I looked over to see who it was and.... It was the man I saw my chance to run again, I was about to run off again but the man stopped me, whispering .... I don't want to hurt you. I asked what he meant and he replied with "you're an orphan by the name of Bell, right?

I said "yes" and he replied in a happy and excited voice "I've been looking everywhere for you". I questioned the man saying "who are you" his reply was "Bell, I'm your dad" with a big grin on his face.

I asked him why he was in my tent but he said " I heard you were in that area, I saw the tent and yelled out to see if you were there, but you weren't, I went inside to make sure it was your tent, I saw the photo of you and your dog so I decided to make dinner for us while I waited for you and we could sit down and talk about it".

Confused, I said "why were you holding my dead dog" but his reply was "while I was cooking the steak I heard a blood curdling scream so I went to see what had happened and your dog had walked out in front of an older ladies car and was killed I held it above you because I saw the top of your head so I went to show you what happened, but you ran off".

My last question was "why did you rip my fogs head off?" He said, "while I was running your dogs head hit a tree and came off just over half way, I was going to leave him but I saw him twitch and I wanted to put him out of pain so I ripped it off the rest of the way. I'm really sorry Bell I didn't mean to hurt you or scare you".
