'I could barely breathe but I had to run, my legs is controlling themselves over the rocky road and through the dark trees. I heard their breaths, I know they are faster then me but I have to run, to prove to myself that I can't give up on everything. My legs accelerates, my lungs is burning and tears is running over my red cheeks. Two more seconds left of my miserable life, 1......2!'

I sat up quickly, hitting my head on the book shelf above my small bed so all the books fell down on the floor, sweat was running down my forehead and down to my tailbone. My sight was blurry and I gasped after fresh air to suck into my dry, empty lungs. As soon as my lungs was filled and my sight got back to normal, I realized it was just a dream. I looked at the time and nearly flew out of the bed. 8:55! I was late, really late, this is gonna be the third time I'm coming late this week and Mrs. Dough won't appreciate that. I threw on my clothes and ran down to grab myself a energy bar to eat on my way. I ran as fast as I could , took the shortcut my grandmother always tilde me not to take, as soon as I turned I realized why I shouldn't be here, the road was bumpy and the trees were so close that you nearly came through. I ripped both my shirt and my jeans and got a long scar across my cheek. I dropped my bag, when I was about to pick it up I saw something behind all the trees, I may be wrong but it looked like a wolf. My heart stopped beating for a second, I slowly turned back and then ran as fast as I could out from the dark forest. It felt like eyes was watching me as I ran.

I didn't stop running until I reached school. I was 10 min late, my clothes were ripped and so was my bag, all my stuff had fallen out.
'Damn it!' I whispered
I walked in quietly and put my remaining stuff into my locker. Someone had written dick on my locker, I wasn't surprised, this always happens. Every morning I get this beautiful notes from my wonderful friends.....

After standing outside the classroom for 1 minute just staring in thinking about if I should go in or not I finally open the door and stepped in. I felt brave, I slammed the door and sat down looking like a boss. Until I got a pen in my head and everybody started laughing.
'So Mr. Hex, can you explain why you are late?'
Everyone stared at me and some girls in the back was giggling. I looked down on my desk and sighed. I heard how pleased she sounded.
'Well, then I have no other choice to give you a detention!'
Her voice makes me feel sick. I looked up stared at her until she got uncomfortable and looked away. She continued her lesson without looking at me once.

After spending my whole day in hell I finally could walk home, away from all the dickheads in school. I often feel realized when I walk home, but today I couldn't stop thinking about the wolf in the woods. I thought wolves was afraid of humans? It looked like it was spectating me. Tomorrow, I'll take the same shortcut again and look for that wolf.

When I turned into the area we lived in I knew something was wrong. My head made up all these horrible things that could have happened. The old lady next to us could have died, a cat stuck in a tree. Then it hit me, grandma! I dropped the tests of my bag in the middle of the road and ran home. It was crowded outside our door, there were police cars and ambulances everywhere. It was like straight out of a horror movie. I pushed myself through the thick mass of people. The polices tried to stop me but I were too quick, I ran in and up to grandmas room. It felt like someone punched my face with a pan, grandma was there, but she wasn't breathing. She had a blanket over her body but the face was still showing, she was white as ghost. Some paramedics noticed that I was standing there, I collapsed and all I saw was the blurry faces of the paramedics before everything went black.

'1......2! I waited for the blood and the crushing sounds, nothing. There was nothing, not even a single sound. Am I dead? I removed my hands from my face and looked around as I saw the most wonderful creature I have ever seen right in front of me.'

I woke up in a small white room. It smelled strong of hand sanitizer. Where am I? I was just about to step out of the bed when a white dressed woman walked in. She had a stethoscope around her neck and folder in her hand.
'Hi, I'm going to be your nurse during your visit here!'
She said it like it was my choice to be here. I don't even remember what happened. I opened my mouth to speak but only a squeak came out. The nurse smiled and then left. I was so tired and my head was aching. My stomach gave out a horrifyingly noise, I hope someone had heard it so I can get some food. But no one showed up. The darkness was falling over the small town Epralo and soon one day would be over. All I could think about was this wolf, and the forest I ran through. It looks exactly like the forest I dream about every time I sleep. Everything is weird right now, why is no one here? Am I forgotten? Will I die alone in this cold room, hungry and thirsty. I looked out the window, I could at least see the beautiful full moon from where I was sleeping. But little did I know, that I was looking at the same moon as my true love.
