It was a warm summer night, not a cloud in the sky. The dark-navy sky glittered with the magnificent beauty with the help of the stars that stuck in the sky like glue. A slight breeze was in the air, shouts of excitement and laughter was being heard from a big, 3 story house. Colorful disco lights were on and the scent of grilled barbecue, shish kabobs, and mostly liquor filled the air.
The sound was being caused by teens of many ages. Loud music was being played by teen DJ playing remix music. Many teens got really drunk and hammered most of the time of the party. One of the teens got so hammered that he somehow climbed onto the roof and decided to jump into the backyard pool of the house. When he did, he came limping out of the pool and the whole front of his body was red. He got tired and clasped on the ground behind a green bush in the backyard.
3 hours passed by during the party. One of the neighbors recognized the party got to out of hand. The whole house was toilet papered and the bushes were sprayed with silly string. 5 of the windows were shattered. And someone planned to put fireworks all around inside of the house and set them off. The place was totaled!
The neighbor called the police. When everyone in the house heard sirens and lights of blue and red, the knew the had to bail out quickly. Several police cars surrounded the house, police men and women escorted the teens from the house. Police also found out the owner of the house wasn't there.
Whoever was responsible for the party, had to be related to the owners of the house. Luckily, they found out who it was and called his, and everyone else's, parents. Some of their parents found out pretty quickly due to them being missing. The owners of the house said that they were gone not to far out of town. They had no idea that their son, the teen who caused the party, would do such a thing.
After a while of clearing the house, the police finally got every teen out of the house...or so they thought. A few teenagers seemed to find their way out of the house. There were an even amount of boys and girls in the few who escaped: 3 boys and 3 girls. They were all walking down the sidewalk from the house to the next 2 blocks down the road. They were all drunk and were telling dirty jokes to eachother about the police.
After they made it to the end of the 2nd block, they came to a dark forest. As they approached closer, they more curious they got. The approached a dirt path into the woods and a sigh that said:

Forbidden Property
No Tresspassing!
DO NOT ENTER!

They ignored the sign and went in the woods along the dirt path to mess around. And of course as most idiotic teens, they just wanted to have fun. The 3 girls were scared and their senses were finally coming back to them. The 3 boys stayed close to their girlfriends, but they were still a bit light-headed from drinking too much. The boys turned on the lights on their iPhones so the could see as the walked through the woods. One of them thought it would be cool to video their walk on his iPhone.
The girls started to feel tense and worried, thinking if they went too far. The boys comforted their girlfriends with stories about times they were scared. That idea didn't work too well. So they changed the subject into something funny. As they continued to walk, little do they know that something was watching them.
After a while into the night, the group of teens were getting tired. The girls were half asleep as the the boys tried their hardest to stay awake. They all decided to turn back and go home. But when they turned around, the dirt path that they were treading on had vanished.
The girls awoke frightened and panicking. The boys said not to panic, they will just have to go the opposite direction the walked. Each of the girls held on the arm of their boyfriends. The boys' iPhones were running out of battery usage, which was not a good sign. The girls didnt have thier iPhones with them, they were at home.
They walked faster. The boys were starting to feel tense too. The boy who was recording spotted something in the forest. He stopped and lifted up his iPhone. Everyone else stopped.

1st boy teen: "Uh dude, what are you doing?"
1st girl teen: "There is no WiFi here in this forest if that is what you're doing."
2nd boy teen: "Come on man, we got to find a way outta here before our parents know that we are gone."
2nd girl teen: *whispers* "What is he doing?"
3rd boy teen: "I swore I saw something!"
3rd girl: "It's probably some animal. Now can we please go?"

They started walking again. The boy was still recording. A few minutes later one of the boys stopped.

2nd boy teen: "Dammit! My iPhone is dead!"
1st boy teen: "Don't worry, I still have some-" His iPhone shuts off. "...No. Oh no, no, no! Do turn off now God dammit!"
3rd boy teen: "I still have some battery left, but it won't last long. So we got to hurry!"

Now they are running. The nearly panic as the run. They worry more and more. They start to wish that they never entered the forest. All of a sudden, they stop by a sound of a huge branch breaking off and falling to the ground with a loud thud. They all turn around quickly.

3rd boy teen: "What the hell was that?!"
1st boy teen: "Did you hear that?"
1st girl teen: "Sounded like a tree just got chopped down!"
2nd girl teen: "I don't think it was a tree."
2nd boy teen: "I don't even think it was chopped!"
3rd girl teen: "Shhh! Everyone be quiet."

They all stay absolutely quiet. The forest was really quiet except for the sound of breathless teens. The boy moved his iPhone around with its light still on. The light shone a branch that looked it was supposed to be on a tree.
The 3 girls stayed close to their boyfriends. The boy moved his iPhone around, and what they saw shocked them. The way the just came was clear, but something was different. 2 tall, identical trees stood perfectly parallel together just 8ft away from them. They just came frome that direction!

2nd boy teen: "Th-those trees...w-weren't there before."
3rd boy teen: "Where did they come from?"
1st boy teen: "Uhh...g-guys...I don't think those are trees."

The 2 boys and 3 girls looked at the 1st boy teen, he looked as if he saw a ghost.

1st girl teen: "What's wrong?"

He pointed up back at the 2 trees. They all tuned around and looked up. The 3rd boy pointed his iPhone up too. When they did, they saw no branches on the trees. No, they weren't trees, but 2 long, skinny legs!

3rd boy teen: "Oh. My. God."

It moved. The legs moved. It looked like it was morphing into a smaller being. And that's when they saw it. Paralyzed in fear, they saw a 10ft man with a black suit, pale skin, skinny lims, and a blank face. It made a moaning sound as it lifted his arm torwards them. His hand had 5 sharp claws.
The teens screamed in terror and quickly ran from the creature. The boy dropped his iPhone when he ran. The tall man followed them. He teleported in front of them. The heard of running teens stopped at the sight of this terrifying creature, nearly bumping into eachother. The tall man reached out to the 3rd boy teen. He screamed and panicked, the claws of the tall man scratched his arm really bad. They all ran away from the creature panicking.
The tall man teleported infront of them again and he reached out to the 3rd teen again. The 1st boy teen defended his friend, he tried to hit the creature. He got scratched too, this time on his chest. The tall man reached again but ended up scratching more of the teens.
He put his arms down and 4 tentacles slithered out of his back and reached for the teens. They all fought back in defence. One of the tentacles grabbed hold of one of the girls, the 2nd girl, around her waist. He broth her up to his face. The girl heard a loud static sound and she screamed in pain, covering her ears. All of the teens heard the sound and they all screamed too. They all covered their ears.
The tentacle dropped her on the ground. They all screamed, nearly crying, as they all quickly ran out of the forest. They finally found their way out. They ran down the street as the tall man watched them run away from him.
He looked at the blood on his clawed hands. "All I ever wanted..." He said in a deep, raspy voice. Almost sounded like crying. "...was to help them." And he disappeared as he walked back into the forest.
