My heart pounded against my chest as my hands trembled, dried tears rested upon my cheeks along with blood and dirt. The flashing of lightning lit the sky which was followed by crashing thunder that shook the earth to the very core.

 Rain plummeted to the ground creating a pool of mud around me as I layed there in pain and exhaustion.  Flashing lights could be seen in the distance, red and blue. My body shook as I struggled to stand, only ending up falling back in the mud beneath me earning a scream of pain as I landed on my sliced leg, I began to sob once more, hoping and praying to get out of this seemingly endless nightmare. Maybe they would catch him, maybe they would make him suffer the same fate that my best friend did, maybe i'll get out of this alive. 

the pain i felt was unbearable, in my heart and in my mind, my body littered with cuts and gashes. Time seemed to stand still in the moment that i saw him run away, off into the woods with blood covering every inch of the clothing that he wore; blood belonging to Nyla and I.

The sirens grabbed my attention, i tried lifting up my arm to signal that i was there but i was to weak to move anything. Suddenly I couldn't feel anything, it was almost like I was entirely numb, I couldn't blink or anything else. My vision went blurry and I could feel myself slipping, slipping into the black abyss.
