Without thinking I just ran from my home. I'm so sick and tired with how they treat me, so what if I'm different? I cant help it that I'm like this. I kept running until I reached the part of the Shadow Rift that I feared the most. I was in Shadow Reaper territory, Reapers for short. I looked around at the dark scenery

which sent chills down my spine. It was very quiet which according to my mom meant that they were watching you. I didn't know what to do mainly because I fell asleep while mom was trying to teach me about these things. Something spoke. A weak Weeper like you shouldn't be in these woods... I was frozen with fear. What could I do? Should I run?What would they do to me if they caught me? I just stood still. Scared? The Reaper snickered at my fear. You should be~ We just love seeing others scared. Now filled with fear I just closed my eyes. "Please don't hurt me" It laughed. I can't promise anything. And with that I ran like I usually do when I'm scared. I could hear the sound of feet chasing me. I ran faster, not daring to look behind me. With a loud bark a Reaper tackled me to the ground. I cried out loudly and squirmed but it was no hope. Weepers are rather cute when they're scared. Wait what? Cute? I didn't dare question it but it honestly scared me more. Now what should we eat first?~ "N-Nothing... Don't hurt me p-please...." I couldn't help but to stutter and shake violently from fear. I was trapped and this thing wouldn't get off of me. I had to get away but there's nothing I could do. I struggled as the Reaper dragged me away by my tail, which hurt a lot. Now I wish I didn't run away but maybe this is better then being yelled at. No. Nothing is worse than being torn apart by a Reaper. Name. It took a lot for me to get myself to speak "W-Weeps" Hmf. A weak name for a weak creature. I couldn't stop shaking and I just curled up as he dragged me.

After what felt like hours the Reaper throw me out of their forest. "Why are you letting me leave" Eyes... Eyes? I mean my eyes are white and every Weeper has different color eyes and it's not normal for a Weeper to get a 'non color' like white but whatever. I started to walk away but soon I collapsed and felt very weak. I glanced at my tail which had grey liquid flowing down it. Mom said this stuff was like blood, whatever that is. I touched the wound on my tail and whimpered as I remembered one thing that mom taught me. Reapers love chasing weak prey. The Reaper poisoned me just so he could attack me when I couldn't do anything. I whined as I tried getting up to see if there were any Creatures that could help me but nobody dared to cross Reaper territory. I managed to crawl farther away from the Reapers but the pain was to much. I looked around and only saw darkness which really was the only thing in the Shadow Rift. I whined loudly before blacking out
