So I really stumbled upon this one as I was looking through my google classroom for more good prompts. I wrote this aaaallllll the way back in November so wow. This ends as a cliffhanger because why not. But despite that, I am not going to continue it and/or make a part 2.
As I walked around the mysterious path in the woods, I wondered how I had gotten to the area, and why I was here. My long brown hair whipped around me as the wind whistled through the trees. I walked about a half an hour longer until my curiosity got the best of me, and I opened the pack. When I had first woken up in the clearing, I had looked around, vaguely disoriented, and found a large black pack, propped up on a rock beside me. I undid the buckles on the top and the first thing I saw was a black sleeping bag. The person that had put me here had obviously intended for me to stay overnight. That alone scared me. As I dug deeper into the bag, I found a first aid kit, provisions, a water purifier, sunglasses, dry food packs, and a fire starter. I walked until I found another clearing to set up camp. By now the sun is starting to set, and the wind starts up, blowing all of the leaves up around me. I start building a campfire with the equipment and heating up my food. After I'm done eating, I crawl into my sleeping bag. Only one though consumes my mind. How do I get out of here? I fall asleep with these thoughts. When I wake up, I feel something wet on my face. Rain. Luckily, I have a poncho. I re-pack everything and continue on my journey. As I walk I notice that the bushes around me form a sort of path. I walk for about a mile and come to a dead end. The shrubs at this point had gotten higher and higher making them next to impossible to climb. I sigh and turn back. Another mile back, I start to give up hope trying to find my way out. Suddenly, I come across a path I didn't notice before.
I follow it and come to a clearing. As I looked around, I saw a scarecrow. Why would a scarecrow be here? Then, I hear a voice. I couldn't believe it, but I was sure the scarecrow had just talked to me!
Again with the formatting. Every single time I try to fix it I just make it worse so. Again this is short because of a page/paragraph limit for the original prompt. Hope you enjoyed!
