The Unrested

Jean

We finally stopped at a pond and we were both filthy from the soot and the occasional falls. "My name is Jean" I whispered softly meaning not to bother him"Your's?"

"Does it really matter" he said curtly.

"Well you saved my life so...Yes! It does matter to me!" I said almost yelling.

"Wow, now that is what I was looking for I knew you weren't just bark.Alec, my name is Alec." he said laughingly. "So how did you get out the city?" he asked.

"I guess I could ask you the same thing. But really I just high tailing it when the bombs started." I replied.

"How did you get out?" I questioned.

"Oh I was already out I was hunting...Oh crap where is my bow!?" he shouted. then he started to sprint in the burnt forest again (good thing the fire had been out for a while.)

"Wait!" I screamed

After a couple minutes of running he stopped, looked down, screamed and picked up a charred bow or so it looked. he threw it just as I caught up to him.

"What's wrong?" I asked sincerely.

"It's ruined!" he said upset.

I then went to pick it up and it looked bad but it had not been harmed it was just a thick layer of soot on it! I turned around to tell him the news and there he was in a pile of blood his own blood.

"AHHHH!!" I said weepingly.

I looked slightly up and there was a man he as though he was staring into my soul but he had no eyes or features he was just pitch black almost like a shadow. Then just like that I had his hand in my chest he then ripped my heart out and everything was black. That is until I woke up...
