He ran through the dark woods, the thousands of trees towering over him, and the twisted branches seemed to move towards him. It was the middle of the day, yet in the forest, there was a strange eeriness of night. He could hear his every breath and could feel every single heartbeat pounding hard against his bare chest his chest. He was running, what he was running from he didn't know, but he sprinted through the leaf-strewn forest ground, each leaf crunching as he ran. The pounding thuds behind him quickened, he could hear the pounding coming closer and closer. He was nearly there! he could now see the light of the village! Once he was there, he would travel through the invisible field and it would be kept out.
And then it pounced. In one swift moment, it was on him and he struggled to pull the creature away from him but he was powerless to do anything as it ripped him apart slowly. Blood trickled out of his bare chest as it ripped out his heart, the last thing he ever saw was the red, bloodshot eye of the dark creature.
