We slowly looked over the edge, everything started to get dark. I was starting to lose my sight.

"Elena? William?" I called out, scrambling my hands around to feel if they were here. I felt nothing.

"Alyssa it will be okay." I heard a whisper from William. "They are trying to trick you, just stay focused and follow us."

"I can't see!" I cried for help, it was getting darker and colder. I fell to the ground and started to cry. Suddenly someone shushed me violently.

"Be quiet."

I had never heard this voice before, I looked up and gasped. Where am I? I was laying on wet pavement surrounded by darkness.

"Please leave me alone. I need to get back to my friends." I said nervously. I could sense that the person was still there, watching me. "Who are you?" I got no response. Suddenly, I was knocked to the ground.

"Stop! Who are you!?"

"Lighten up a little." An evil voice started to chuckle. "Here, let me help you!"

"What?"

A pair of pale hands aggressively threw lights at me, wrapping me up. I struggled to get free.

"What are you doing!? Let me go!"

They started to burn me, "Ow, please get these off! Help! Help!" I started to thrash around and tried to stand up but I couldnt. It was still burning me. The voice only laughed and the hands started putting on more and more until you could no longer see me. The burning was extremely excruciating, it was as if I was set on fire. My eyes started to tear up because of all the light, I shut my eyes tight. It became too much to bare. It took all my power to just get on my knees, I was desperately yelling and crying, I was getting extremely upset. I pried the lights off, they were sticking to me while burning my body; I had finally gotten them all off.

I ran into the darkness with multiple hands grabbing me, pulling on my hair and clothes. People were laughing and screaming right into my ears. "Where are you going? It was just starting to get fun!"

"Elena! Will! Help me!" My burns were stinging with every movement I made.

A hand grabbed my ankle and I fell onto the ground. Everything was in color again, the orange leaves were scattered across the forest floor and I was surrounded by tall trees. I was back, but where was Elena and Will? I looked at my body and the burn marks were still there, what the hell happened?

I heard the raddling bones of the crazies and ran to hide.
