I will always remember that sight, the sight of furious beasts trying to kill me. I nearly died and I was already scares. I will never forget it and every time I'm out I think of it. I won't go there again, I remember it well.I shiver every time I think of that day.
The weather was positively tropical and I decided to clear my mind and go for a walk. I went to my favourite place, the forest, to be in nature to listen and see the natural beauty of the earth.
Walking along in the forest I could hear my heart beating and my body working, I felt alive. I had escaped from reality and wanted to stay there but I knew it couldn't last all my life.  I was happy there in my happy world and knowing it wouldn't last I was always frightened of the world around me.
When I reached the end of the forest I stumbled across a clearing, it was empty and I was ready to have a sit down and rest. My mind was just at rest until I heard something. It wasn't nature, it wasn't me,I wasn't alone. What was it?
I looked up and saw two men each holding a furious beast. The beasts' mouth was watering and their teeth were, razor sharp, held out of their mouth. I was scared. Really scared. I didn't know what to do. The men saw me and then whispered to each other. They let go of the beasts and then shouted "get him!!!"
I started running, running faster with every stride.
I thought this was it. I thought I wasn't going to to get till tomorrow. The furious beasts were trying to catch me, I didn't know where to go. I kept running back through where I had came from but the beasts wouldn't stop.
I kept running but now they were right behind me, I had to go the pace. I started sprinting as fast as I could, I felt like I was dying, to get away. The faster I went the beasts went. As the beasts were going to lay their teeth into me I jumped...
Where had they gone? Had I got away? What was the barking? I jumped over a wall and buried myself inside a hole. I had to wait for an hour until they gave up. The men shouted them and I heard them run away. My heart was pounding but I had to look back.
I saw I was safe and ran back home, I was so out of breath but I had to keep going. I got home and hid under my covers.I was scared of dogs and this just made it worse.
