It was an early summer morning, it was about mid July now. I sat at my desk drawing one of the dreams I had last night, this time it was much more in detail a lot of gore. I saw a man's, freshly dead corpse in the woods. I couldn't tell what area I was in, since the only details I could recall were in my drawing. My drawing was nearly done, until I heard my mom call me down for breakfast. I walked frustratedly down the stairs, to see my mom in the kitchen making breakfast. She looked at me in a concerned way, as if she saw a ghost, or a dead person crawling out of the grave wandering amongst the living.

"Sweetie you don't look so good, another bad dream?"

"No mother, im fine. Just not a good sleeper is all."

"Well okay, don't forget your medication before you head out today okay."

"Okay, mother.."

She worries about me to much, I began to eat breakfast. Until my mother and I saw Sam through the window, running like a madman up to the front porch knocking on the door in a violent manor like he was locked outside and a killer was coming to get him. My mother answers the door, to see Sam panting, and sweating as if he just finished a race against Jesse Owen and didn't win. He looked at me with fear but as well to much energy for the morning in his eyes, he dashed over to me and grabbed my shoulders.

"DUDE, YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!!"

"See what, aww did something spook you on the trail again?"

"SHUT IT MAN, IM SERIOUS. YOU GOTTA COME SEE. GET YOUR BOOTS ON AND MEET ME AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE OLD TRAIL GOT IT!"

" Okay, okay as long as you stop panicking. Also please let go of my shoulders."

"Oh right, sorry."

Sam lets me go and walks off to the trail,I go to put my hiking boots. But my mother stops me. She crosses her arms and blocks the doorway,
     "Issac Benson Phelps, where do you think you are going?"

     "Going out to the trail."

she raises and eyebrow at me in suspicion and let out a heavy sigh. She handed me the newspaper from two days ago, in the right hand column showed a story. It reads:

A young girl by the name of sarah parks, has gone missing on wildwood trail. If anyone sees her report it to the police ASAP. In other news two police men have gone missing as well on that trail.

Her picture was in the column, She went to my high school. We had a Math class together. She was a cool girl, but she's definitely dead. Life is cruel that way, even to the best of people. My mom, looks at me and sighs.

"Honey, not without your boots. And bring that Micheal boy with ok."

"Ugg him, but he's such a tool, he gives me the creeps."

"I don't care, no trail My rule for now. Until this whole thing blows over, also michael seems lonely at least let him hang out with you and Sam just for today."

"Okay fine."

"good also sweetie don't forget..your pills."

I dart out of the door to go see Michael since im forced to, my mom watches me walk down to Michael's house. She looks down at the bottle of pills, Clozapine...
