Toby and I run through the forest as fast as we can, him holding onto my hand, giving me a tug every now and then to be sure I'm keeping up my pace and don't slow. His grip was tight and protective but soft and worrying.
"C-Come on [Name]! I'm g-g-getting you out of he-here!"

~**~

Suddenly Toby is no longer holding my wrist but instead I'm on my back against the grass, dirt and stones. Being dragged by my hair as he yanks me harshly, my skin grazes and cuts on the sharp stones my body slices over.
Screaming and squirming in pain as I feel blood drip from my head at his forceful yanking of my hair. It was agonisingly painful and long lasting.
"Come on [Name]. Let's get you out of here Hm?"
He laughs evilly, giving my hair a tight quick twist, forcing my neck to jolt to the side, causing a numbing sensation in my neck.

~**~

I scream, coming to a stop, yanking my hand from Toby's as I breathe heavily, checking myself over for cuts, bruises and blood. There was nothing. Toby turns back to look at me, watching the horror in my face. He knew the scenarios were still happening.
He rushes towards me, taking me in an embrace and whispering in my ear.
"R-Remember [Name]. The evil scenario is fake. It's n-n-not real. During one. S-Sp-Speak out loud that y-you know it's fake!"
Breathing heavily and quickly, I nod to his advice. Inhaling for a long deep breath of fresh air before we continue running again. The forest was like a maze.
This time, as we ran, Toby held me in his arms, carrying me bridle style to keep me close to him, allowing me to feel his reassuring touch.

~**~

Toby no longer carries my bridle style. Instead I was hunched over his shoulder. A large knife in his hand across my back as he held me up. Ready to strike the blade at any moment into my skin. I could help but squirm In a frantic panic and cry loudly with fear. But this just made him angry, stabbing the knifes blade deep into my thigh, causing me to scream in agony, to which he then throws me to the floor. Landing on the knife, pushing it in more.

~**~

As I lay in Toby's arms as he runs, he suddenly trips and falls due to my ear bursting scream. I fumble out of his arms, landing on my thigh.
"[Name]!"
He yells almost instantly after dropping me. Running over to me to help me to my feet.
"[N-Name]! I'm s-sorry! You caught me off guard wh-when you screamed!"

~**~

"Look at you! Screaming from a knife to the leg! I've had much worse you pathetic scum!"
I wince at the pain but then remembered what the real Toby said.
"This, isn't, real.."
I mumble between gasps and flinches of pain.
"What was that?"
He snarls, leaning down over me, grabbing my chin and yanking my head towards him. Feeling his hot breath against my face.
"This! Isn't! REAL!"
Suddenly, Toby's body disperses into dust, followed by the trees and bushes. Leaving behind a bright white light. I couldn't help but shield my eyes with my hands, but even then it was still bright.

~**~

Once the light faded, the real Toby showed crouched in front of me as a worried expression plasters over his face. Lunging forward, I hold him in a tight hug as a tear falls down my cheek.
"It worked.. it really worked!"
I cry happily as I squeeze him tighter. Causing him to respond in the same way, wrapping his arms around me more.
"Good. B-But that doesn't m-mean he w-won't b-be *tic* wont be back."
He says as the stands, holding his hand for me to grab, which I do.
Before we continue our way, he leans towards me, placing a smooth sweet kiss on my lips, by which I happily return. It felt so good to kiss him, I never wanted it to end. But he eventually pulls away, looking into my eyes before speaking.
"L-Lets go!"
He says for the final time, by which we instantly continue on our way for an exit out of the forest.
