 I stood there, soaked in tears and blood as the beast began to stand.

" What do you want from me?!" I screamed.

"The only thing I could have from you." he said in his low scratchy voice.

I frantically search for an exit, but the demolished castle walls around us had trapped me in a ring of debris, and a terrifying conclusion.

I'm going to die tonight.

I decided now is the time to face my to-be murder, and leave this world as anything but a coward. I never had to really think about life after death before, and I certainly don't have the time to give it a second thought now.

I could have never imagined, when I turned and met his eyes, that I'd be staring at a truly horrific leviathan. He had pale, almost illuminating, scars covering his wide chest and bulky arms. They seem to be from unknown weapons, and several of his scars resembled large teeth marks. all over his face and body. His hair, which cascaded down his back, was white as the freshly fallen snow, with streaks of his own bright red blood. His eyes resembled small abyss', completely black, with no white, very much like a starving shark on the hunt. His teeth, also resembling a shark, are all jagged edged and so long they are pointing out of his mouth in all directions.

Although his apparence is enough for me to shit myself, it was when he made direct eye contact that had me. It feels like my soul is going to shrivel up into nothing more than a dead flower, leaving my body as nothing but an empty vessel.

I couldn't bear staring any longer so I spun to face the wall behind me. After a few heartbeat, knowing I made the mistake of turning my back to him, I finally spoke to the nightmare. 

"What do you want from me?"  I whispered, in a wavering voice that I simply couldn't control.

I could hear the castle wall remains, crunching under his deliberatly slow footsteps. When he stopped, I could feel his breath on my neck causing a shiver of disgust and terror.

" The only thing I can have from you."  He said in almost a sad tone. I almost turned to see if he was even the same person..beast..who has been trying to tear me limb from limb, but fear had me frozen in place. 

I started going through my mind trying to think of something I would have that he could possibly want. A mask? Money? A castle contractor? I started to panic at the idea of him never letting me go until I found out what he'd want. He'd keep me here, trapped forever in the castle, so dark that you can't imagine that it used to be a beautiful home of my ancestors from the 1800's. It is now filled with dark evil that no one can come back from. There will always be a dark cloud of the memories experienced here.

" What is the only thing you can have from me?"  I asked, barely above a whisper.

" Your heart," and he grabbed me and twisted me around and kissed me with his hideous mouth and looked deep in my eyes with his endless eyes.

  All I could think of was the dream I had. It was insane how real it felt.  I couldnt stop seeing his eyes. ' Wow, I have got to stop watching so many scary movies,' I thought to myself.

Sigh. I have to get up. It was 7:00am and school started in a half an hour. Being a junior sucked and rocked at the same time. Sucks, because I still have a year to go, rocks, because I only have a year left!
