Beauty in Gloom

Chapter 1

"Mama when will you come back"
I remember those were the last words I ever said to her. I was four it was a beautiful Sunday afternoon, I'm 14 it's a beautiful Sunday afternoon. I remember the last words my mum said to me.
"Once the beast is defeated..." "be good for grandma"
I didn't know what that meant, I thought "once the beast is defeated" meant something else. I still think it might, but there is one ounce of me that thinks it wasn't just a old saying, it was actually real. To be honest who knows as a fact that there isn't some kind of evil out there...exactly no one. I remember looking out my grandmas window,her brushing my long bright blonde hair looking into my blue eyes. I remember her talking -more specifically her voice- she told me that "even if the people you love are days away, love will always be close." She always said things like that, things that would make you wonder why.
Speeding back to the present I looked out my grandmas window brushing my long bright blonde hair thinking about what I would ware into town today. I was most defiantly NOT looking forward to going into town, going into town means walking down the steep steep hill and walk for hours and hours on miles of rocky trail alone. I didn't want to but I knew I had to. Hearing my grandma coughing I remembered the whole reason why I had to go.
I changed and walked out looking at my grandma sitting in her rocking chair, she was knitting as per-usual
" ok gama, I'm going now" I said talking loud enough so she could hear without her hearing aids.
" Chloe stay safe" she told me with a certain fear under her voice.
I didn't quite know why, but her three word made me scared.
  I was walking down the pretty route to the village. I picked some flowers for the table tonight, then I heard a growl from behind me, I reach down into my grey uggs and grab the small knife my gran made me carry everywhere I go. As I slowly turn around I see it... no... not a it... a they. I lunge forward and piece the first growling beast  screaming for the one person I could really trust.
  "COLE?! COLE PLEASE IF YOU HEAR ME COME QUICK" I screamed as loud as I could, deep down inside I was picturing his perfect face, his muscular body, his beautiful light brown hair, coming to save me but I also knew this battle I would face alone.
