I hear screaming, my throat is sore and raspy. I realize that I'm screaming. I look around and see Old Oak. I reach the massive tree, grab on to the lowest branch and climb. The muscles in my body react with a calming sense of recognition as I scale the familiar tree with a hurried grace. After I'm about twenty-feet up, I feel something on my leg. I look and see nothing there, so I try climbing higher, but I can't move. Suddenly I'm pulled down with a force so inhuman, I hit my head, hard, and I see red. I roll over and see the best looking man that I've ever seen. He offers his hand and helps me up.
"Thank you," I say with the greatest amount of gratitude that anyone has ever showed, "I thought that I was dead."
He says nothing, but rather pulls me into a kiss. I can feel myself melting, quite literally to, but who cares when someone this gorgeous is standing right there kissing me.
All of a sudden he pulls back and says, with a thick carmally voice, while keeping his hands on my neck "Well, my darling Eliza, that is because you are. Say hello"He turns a sickening green, and with a sly grin revealing knives in place of teeth, snaps my neck.
