   *They are my new favorite band omg, prettymuch is the name. My favorites are Zion and Nick.*

Freya Pov.

               In a town, like mines there was two separate groups of people there was Normal people and than there was the Forest people an no they weren't part tree or whatever.
They just lived in the Forest and were more free, reckless, crazy and just didn't follow the rules.

They valued family and friendship over anything. They didn't believe in rules, they believed in each others.

  They were great people. Hell, I envied them. Even though the Normal people didn't see them the way I did. My aunt for instance, she saw them as nuisance.

She always finding ways to get rid of them, says "We don't need dirty people running around making a mess of our town.

  I didn't respect my aunt one bit. She the type who believe only the rich will survive in this world. I wish I had the guts to tell her to "fuck of " because she only ever tries to do is change me.

I wish had the guts to join the forest kids, but I didn't.

  I'm scared of what my aunt and the people of this town thinks of me. I don't wanna be alone.
Sometimes I ask myself who am I? I honestly don't know the answer to that question.

         I sat up in bed, it was about 12 am I could've went back to sleep because I was still tired, but I didn't. I threw my covers to the side and step onto my floor and started to head towards the window.

     I hear kids screaming in the distance as I see the lights from their phones light up in the dark. I could almost hear the smiles in their voices as they ran into the forest.

   The flood creaked with every step I took. I opened my door to my bedroom only for a split second, before closing it softly.

              This was a great opportunity to check out the forest. I was always curious of what went on in the forest, it was foreign to me.

It intrigued me at the same time, kids would be always running and not coming out till 2 am, and I would know I've watched from my window when I couldn't sleep sometimes.

       I quickly tip toe downstairs and out the back door unnoticed.

        I continued to tip toe, but as I got farther away I looked back to see if I was in the clearing I didn't want my aunt to catch me.

That would be the end of me if my aunt ever knew I sneaked out the house and went into the forest and ran into one of those
'The Forest Kids".

          I kept walking deeper and deeper in. Hearing laughter like music to my ears it made me smile. What could be so fun? I wanted to be apart of it. I continued to walk and followed the markings I left when I came a few times.

It was newfound thing I liked to do, sneak out and go into the forest it made me feel as free as those forest kids.

  I finally arrived at my destination, the river. I found this exploring one time and saw how clear the blue water looked under the moonlight.
It was hypnotizing. Like I was falling into a spell , maybe I'm crazy.

I stopped and looked around taking in everything around me making sure I was alone. I slowly started to bend down, feeling the clear blue water between my finger tips.

     "I'm going to take a swim" I said, to no one.

           I slowly stripped, it was still early September so the nights were still warm. I feel myself step into the the stream, it could have been infested with bugs but somehow I didn't care.

For once I wanted to do without thinking. I dove my head under water and started to lay on my back floating in the not so river.

      Suddenly, that when I heard people. I hid half of my face under water moving more behind a bush.

    "I can't believe E.R , got me on wood duty this week, with you. I was hoping Salia would be on it with me" one guy complained.

    "Maybe you should put in a word to E.R and tell him to pair you up with her. Maybe you might get lucky", the other guy. Carrying a bundle of wood.

  "I would, but I don't think he would appreciate me asking out his sis"  the guy said, sulking.

   The other guy laughed. "Yeah sorry, I forgot those two are siblings".

   I felt something tickle my leg. I shifted in the water.

   It caught both of their attention.

   "Who's there?" one of them asked.

     I stayed silent making sure I didn't move.

   The other guy started making a move for the water. Oh shit.

     Till a girl voice spoke, "Hurry up. Were about to eat" as she ran on past.

   "Oh let's go, before they get some Grandma Lani fried salmon" the guy said, running with the bundle of wood.

    "Wait up, damn" As the guy took off along with them.

  I peeked up from the water taking a deep breath. I wanna to see where they were heading too.

I slowly step out of the water walking and picking up my clothes which they hadn't noticed surprisingly.

    I put on my clothes, sliding on pants first. When I finished putting on my clothes, I stood there for a min before taking off in the direction in which the guys before me had.

  I took my time, as I heard the crunches off the branches under my foot.

      Finally, I saw lit torches around a whole wooden table which looked hand carved. It looked like it was made from scratch.

Than I saw large portions of food spread all along the table. Not to mention, it looked really good. I could feel myself drool as they had pork chops, ribs, fried chicken.

     I stepped closer hiding behind a tree. Trying not to make too much noise , I stood staring at them. I think they were blessing the food.

   "Amen" A older lady said, she looked ancient like she had been around for a long time.

She must have been the founder of the Forest Kids or something. Well maybe not the founder because the Forest Kids dates back to 70's.

     They soon started to dig in. It was so nice how they were smiling and laughing as they enjoyed their food.

It made me think of my parents, I can barely remember their face since its been at least 7 years since they died.

   I started to feel a little creepy standing here looking at them eat, so I felt it was the right time to go. I slowly backed away not making a sound and turned around. I looked down at my watch.

   "It's already this late. Shit", I said, to myself. I looked back up , before bumping into something.

   I fell back on my butt. "Fuck me" I said. Did I really just bump into a tree.

  I looked up to a curious face looking down at me.

    He grabbed my wrist, pulling me up so quick I almost took off.

   "Thank you ", I said.

   "That's when he grabbed my wrist lifting up my sleeve.

   "No mark. Who the hell are ?" he asked. 

       "Shit"
