"Oh fuck, OH FUCK!!" A voice escaped my throat as I was running through unfamiliar woods "Is this some sort of a sick fucking joke?" I thought as I stopped and looked around me , trying to find a place to hide in from the angry men chasing me, i thought to myself that I've never been a good runner and they're ought to catch me eventually. so I decided to climb up instead.

I climbed the first tree i found in front of me , and did my best to hide my body behind the branches , and I waited .

It didn't take long until the same men I was running from ran by , "make sure the witch doesn't escape , we have to burn her!"

The witch ? do they mean me? . I held my breath and froze my body and waited until I couldn't see them any more , once they were gone I sat down on a branch big enough to fit my body , I hid my face between the palms of my hand and I sighed , I tried to remember how I got into this situation, last thing I remember is I was walking in the woods next to my house on my way to meet my friends by the lake, then I found myself waking up , and before I got a chance to stand and pick my bag up I saw this group of strangers pointing at me and screaming "kill her" I thought it was my friends messing around by no , these people look nothing like my friends , and these trees look nothing like the trees around my house , I took some deep breaths trying to regulate my heartbeat .

Minutes passed by , I decided to evaluate my situation, I looked through my bag trying to find anything useful, my phone , I tried to call someone .

"No service" weird. Got my water bottle out and took little sips as I was looking through the rest of my bag .

"Journal , Pencil case , my wallet and some money , a hoodie , a little care bag and first aid , snacks , a water bottle , my charger and a power bank for my phone" I muttered to myself , " I'm gonna stay here until morning and figure my shit out once I can see in front of me"

I took a deep sigh , fixed my position so I can make sure I'm not gonna fall , wore my hoodie and opened my phone again , the clock said it was midnight , I went through my gallery to see maybe if I took any pictures that may give me an idea of where I am , I found a bunch of black pictures that don't really show anything , one of them was a shaky moon , and some fire ? Maybe I did see my friends , Why can't I remember anything ?

I tried to open the maps app, it won't open , that's not surprising since there's no signal , I went through my texts , nothing unusual , "so fucking weird" , I closed my eyes .

The morning started with the sound of birds singing even before the sun was fully up , I decided to get down the tree and walk around , maybe I'll find other humans who won't kill me, I breathed in the cold air and sighed , "it's gonna be okay" I told myself . I ended up finding a little water stream , I got my shampoo out and washed my face , my dark eyeshadow and eyeliner made the foam grey , maybe that's what made those men think I was a witch ? I washed neck and hands as well , I didn't have a towel so I used the black dress that I was wearing to dry my self up , I didn't feel so threatened , until I heard the voice of a man singing , I didn't know where it came from but my heart sank before I tried to shove everything into my bag and run , I didn't even consider wearing anything over my undergarments before I do , but still I couldn't run away fast enough.
