The Thing In The Woods

Jonas

A/N- BLOOD! (Not lots but, eh)

I always take a walk around the town at night. There is just this creepy yet comforting feeling. There are never major crimes. Just something illegal here and there but that's about it, so I feel safe when walking. Well, usually.

Tonight felt different. It was quieter and darker, and not many people were out. I noticed that someone was walking behind me but I thought that they were just walking like me. I walked across the road and the same person was still behind me. 'Weird' I though. I started to walk faster and then the person behind me kept up with my pace.

I starter to run but it was too late. The person hit me in the head with something and everything went black.

I awoke surrounded by trees. Something didn't feel right. I had a huge headache and I was lost in the woods. Great, now there will be someone to murder me without anyone knowing. I started to get up when I noticed a house about 150 yards away (picture above). 'Don't go there, you've watched too many horror movies to know that if you enter that house you die' I thought to myself. Then I saw a shadow inside the house, oh no.

The person who brought me here is trying to kill me, it isn't that shocking really. I started to walk away when I noticed that there was another person walking towards the house. "Who's there," I called out in hope it was someone to save me. "Jonas?!" The voice called out. I recognized that voice it was Sarah. I called out, "Sarah!" We met each other at a tall tree. "What are you doing here, Jonas?" Sarah asked me and I replied with, "I don't know, you." She tried to speak when something dripped on her head. She looked up and screamed. I looked up to see a person with their neck slit open and cuts all over their body.

I just stood there in shock. 'Who is it,' I thought to myself. More blood started to drip when it moved. Sarah and I screamed and someone else came out of hiding. "Jonas, Sarah!" "ALEX!," Sarah and I screamed at the same time. He noticed the body and almost fainted, at least I thought he would. All three of us started to walk away when I realized that we all were knocked out and we are friends, so where are Vinny and Cadie? "Hey guys, where are Vinny and Cadie? I mean shouldn't they be here too?," I asked them. "Yeah, where are they?," Alex said.

There were more dead bodies all with cuts, wounds, or anything like that. It was slightly scary that no one knew that they were murdered. Violently killed, or tortured. There was a cut on my wrist but I didn't tell anyone so they would freak out.

We started to walk again but still able to see the house when Vinny and Cadie started running towards us in fright. "I KNEW IT!," I yelled. "Sarah, Alex, Jonas!? What are you guys doing here," Cadie asked. "We don't know," Alex replied. "Why were you both running?," Sarah asked. "We thought that someone or something was chasing us," Vinny replied. I started to think about what Sarah and I saw, the 'dead' body moving. I wonder if they were still alive and capable of chasing people.

One thing is for sure, all of us were lost in the woods, no one to save us. We are all alone, other than the people in the house. We were going to die. Sooner or later.
