Death Of Me - Ryden (Finished)

39.

"It's cold", I said, hugging myself to keep me warm.

And it really was cold. The fresh air was blowing throw the rotten branches, causing the leaves to rustle loudly. Our footsteps left dull sounds echoing through the whole forest, causing shivers to run down my spine.

"You alright?", Ryan asked, causing me to nod quickly.

The cat just walked deeper and deeper into the forest, I didn't even saw the way we got from anymore. I think I would be lost by now.

I was hoping she would stop, but she didn't. Even I was never at this place of the forest, and not at that time. I wanted to turn around immediatly, without hesitating.

"I didn't known the forest was that big", Emily said.

"Actually I knew, I'm just wondering how the cat knows where to go", Patrick said, "and it's getting cold, and scary and I wanna go home."

"We all do", I sighed, causing Ryan to take my hand, without even looking at me.

"I can't even see my hand in front of me anymore", Emily sighed, but Patrick pulled a flashlight out of his survival backpack.

"See, without this we would probably be lost and get eaten by animals", he said, smiling victorious.

"By which animals? By a deer?", Emily laughed.

"No, but ants are really strong. Just imagine we're stuck here and we had to sleep on the ground. The ants could theoretically kill us in our sleep when we sleep ext to their ant hill."

Emily just shook her head, wanting the image to go away.
We all did honestly. I don't wanna get eaten by ants.

Well, I'm the only one who couldn't get eaten. Or wait, animals can see me... so maybe...doesn't matter anyway.

Then tsuki stopped. We heard a loud crack from behind us. I didn't want to turn around.

I closed my eyes and hoped the noises would go away, but they stayed.

"What is going on?", I asked Ryan, who just shrugged carefully.

Emily was the first one who turned around.
Then I did and I think my heart just made a pause from beating.

A man stood there, watching us carefully. He was tall and had something in his hand.

My hands began to tremble and a pearl of sweat was running down my forehead.

Patrick looked terrified and Ryan just stared. We had to go away from here. Quickly.

"Run, Ryan", I told him but he continued staring at the man to came closer and closer.

And before something else happened, Emily and Patrick, causing Ryan to finally wake up from his stare.

Then we all four ran away, not knowing were to.

But we ran.

Away from this man and the forest.

I would love to hear what the cricket and clover album sounds like. I'm happy we have pretty. Odd Instead, but I'm still curious, what about you?
