Black Rose

1. The Beginning

I stumbled, roots to roots, as I continue running away from my chasers. It was getting dark now and the canopy of trees make it hard for the light to pass through. Half-blinded, I have to pursue my escape.

I fell to the ground, rolling, when I tripped on one of the roots. My left foot ache as I pulled myself up, holding on the trunk of the tree. My eyes widened in horror as I saw one of my chasers. He is standing few feet away from where I was.

I looked at his unusually beautiful face. His features aate god-like. I admired and feared him at the same time. I continued examining his face. He has an aristocratically arched nose, square jaws and thin lips that curves mockingly. Then i looked up to meet his gaze. His irises were of dark crimson, staring hungrily at me.

I stepped back, holding on to the trunk for support.

"End of the line, kid. It's over." the man, no, the monster said. His smile sent goosebumps all over my body. His red eyes glimmered as he slowly walked his way towards me..
