We have ran for what seems like forever until it began to effect me. My legs felt tense and sore, each rise and fall of my chest ached as I took in a breath. My head was spinning ever so slightly. I just wanted to rest but Jason continued to pull me through the trees. I slowed to catch my breath and he bearly turned to look at me. I caught a glimpse of his eyes and I suddenly felt drawn to him, like a moth to a flame. But the dangerous aura that came from him frightened me. I wanted to get away as soon as possible.

I struggled to get out of his grip but his hands only tightened around my arm. I dug my heels in and pulled back to break free of him. He stumbled at my sudden movement. Finally, he stopped and looked at me. It was obvious he was not pleased.

He released my arm, only to have his hand collide with the right side of my head. I hit the ground, at first I was dizzy but it faded just as quickly as it had came. He was standing over me, in his eyes, I could see angry and confusion. Before he could strike me again, I jumped to my feet and ran.

I turned my head slightly to see if he was chasing me. He was right behind me! The speed and power I had felt before was back. I ran as fast as I could. Everything around me turned into a blur of green and black. I could hear each time his foot slammed into the ground. His pace had quickened along with mine. My mind and body had come to life! Everything was inhanced. My hearing, my vision, my sense of smell! Everything seemed to unravel and unfold infront of me.

Then suddenly I was sucked into a vision. I saw a girl running, faster than I thought humanly possible. She turned her head and her pale skin glowed softly from the full moon, her hair as black as the midnight sky while the stars hide in its shadow. When I saw her bright blue eyes I knew who she was... It was me. As I looked around I realized this was where I was just a few seconds ago! I felt like I was in someone else's body, it didn't feel right. I tried to stop but something or someone continued to serge forward. I tried to speak and call out to the girl that ran infront of me, but the words wouldn't come. I screamed and I shouted but nothing came out.

Out of nowhere this feeling engulfed me. It was a feeling desperation to catch the girl (me) but it wasn't my feelings. Yes, I could feel it but it was distant and a fear of being alone clung to the essence of it. I began to feel the emotion grow and a horrible realization accused to me, or the person whose body I shared. If I don't catch her soon, I'll lose her again... I can't lose her again, I heard a man whisper. His voice was laced with pain and sorrow.

An arm reached out infront of me, trying to get ahold of the other me. They grabbed the back of her shirt and wrenched backwards pulling her to them. They wrapped their arms around her, but when they looked in her eyes, they didn't see fear as they were expecting... They saw confusion and a hint of determination.

The vision ended and I was once again racing through the trees. I looked behind me and I see Jason is chasing me. Then it hit me. In my vision, I was seeing everything through his eyes. I focused on Jason and the feeling that drew me to him. Without realizing, I slowed up, wanting to be near him and figure out why he was afraid to lose me.

I felt him grasp my shirt and I prepared myself for when I collide into him. I closed my eyes as he yanked me back, then opened them to look up in his eyes. He was staring at me and they look relieved... I thought I saw the slightest bit of happiness but then it all faded into his old self.

He latched onto my arm and began to pull me along an unseen path to an unknown destination.

"Jason! let go! I'll walk!" I shouted at him when I felt his nails dig into the soft skin of my arm.

"I don't trust you. You'll probably run again." he said continuing to stare staight forward.

"I won't I promise... And I never break a promise." There was a long pause before he slowly let go and pushed me infront of him.

"Walk, but just know if you try to run... I won't hesitate to kill you." He stated so matter-of-factly that I didn't want to run... But for some reason, deep down, I didn't really believe he'd hurt me...

~Yeah, I know it seems a little random:/ I was out of it today... I'll try to do better.
