~*Your Pov*~

Four years; twenty eight days. That's how long I've been trapped in a musty old library in the woods, full of solitude and silence; all because I did the dumb thing, and followed voices in my head.

"Hamilton," I say calmly, climbing up a ladder. "Can you go find some food for me to eat?"

Hamilton, he's a monster I met when I was seven; been by my side ever since. I depend on him greatly, you see; I can't pass these stone pillars; they prevent me from leaving and going home to my mom and dad..to my friends, nothing living can pass through, except for Hamilton.

If I hadn't touched that damn orb.., I think gripping the ladder, climbing to the top.

I shake those thoughts from my head, the same thoughts that lingered in my mind for four damn years.
I stay still on the ladder, my dominant hand gripping to the ladder as I run my fingers across bumps on the seems on the book sides my fingers passed over gently, with my other.

"Read it..read it...read it.." I mumble, carefully climbing back down, an aura surrounding the ladder. "IVE READ  EVERYTHING HERE!!!! AT LEAST THREE TIMES!!!!!"

"Friend....okay?" Hamilton Asks, as I make my way down the steps of the place.

"I'm very much fine," I say through gritted teeth,grabbing a three large stacks of books that need sorted; One stack balanced on my left hand, one on my right and one on my head. When you've been trapped in a library for four years, you learn a trick or two when transporting large amounts of books at once.
I walk to the door, Hamilton opening it. "Just more and more work."

"Friend sharp...Stick." Hamilton says, Grabbing a stack of books from one of my hands, placing on to the floor, and curling my fingers around a cold metal stick. This was a spear Hamilton had found a month or so maybe, after I became trapped. I carry it on me when I leave, just in case.

"Thank you,Hamilton," I say, Picking the stack of books he had placed on the ground onto the spear at the end, to hold them.

We venture through the land till we reached the stone pillars. I set all three stacks of books onto the ground, taking my right hand and pressing it towards gap between them, only for it to land on something..I reached my limits.
I sit down,leaning against the field, as I watch Hamilton's grayish outline in the endless black around me, disappear and appear on the other side, venturing into the outside world which I urned to be in.
I place down the spear, of which I had know idea what it looked like, down.
I began with one pile, knocking it down with my elbow, a thud in the ground as they reached it.
I grab one of the books that I had knocked down; dragging the palms of my hands around it till I found the title, then of which I dragged my finger tips over the bumps that I learned to read.

"Fantasy...Reality...history.." I say, dragging my fingers over book after book sorting them into respected piles so I could put them back into the respected category.

??? P.O.V

I was tired as all hell, and I was wet and cold. I was out just scoping out some houses when I got caught by some police and I had to run fast as shit. I couldn't take the regular path of course.
I ran a different path into the regular woods and I ran deep into it.
Thankfully, I managed to lose them;but I got lost in this area of the woods.

"Jesus, Fuck," I curse, wandering around as my hands shivered. "Where the hell am I?"

As I walked, Slouched down hands in pockets. I continue on, when a heard low, vulgar grumble. I dart behind a tree, peering over it slightly, to see a creature with large front claws, and a gray boney body, multiple eyes lining its back in different colors, large sharp angler like teeth as is moved with its mouth open, breathing heavily.
Stolen foods like corn, Raw beef(Still packaged.) chips, Apples, Water bottles, and more things like gasoline and flammable objects held in its fronts arms as moved on its back legs.

The fuck is that!, I think, watching it stalk around the area, soon turning to the town and sauntering off while mumbling something.
I need to get the fuck out of here before that thing comes back, I think, Running in the opposite direction of it.

Your P.O.V

I continued sorting the large assessment of books, large piles around me acting like columns. I let out a sigh, standing to my feet; spear in hand.
I pick one of the three large piles up using the spear, the books balancing on the blade.
I begin to walk a steady pace back to the library when a painful, Unwelcoming shiver snakes its' way up my spine, bring me to a stop, One foot still lifted; My breathing shaky as I set it down.

From the pure black world around me, nothing but outlines of plants and structure of the stone pillars; Emerges the Aura Of something that felt dangerous. I turned my head carefully back to the pillars..
behind the trees a see the outline of something I could not believe........

A human.
