Escape

Chapter 5

Hayley's POV

It's been a week since I've gone missing back in my hometown. A lot has happened to me in this week. It all started when I left Emma's house with Diego. I had gotten a message from Katie saying to meet her in the tunnel in which was across the street by Diego's house.

It was an awkward car ride to his place, nobody spoke a word. Once we got to his house, Michael (Diego's friend) had passed out on the couch. I wanted to go to the tunnel alone, Diego didn't listen to me. It was a battle between the two of us until I told him I would be safe by locking my lips onto his. We had about a 15 minute make out session until he ruined it by squeezing my ass just a bit to hard.

After that I had left the house, without Diego and made my way down the street into the tunnel. I peaked inside and heard a bunch of sobbing, instantly I recognized the voice. I ran into the tunnel and saw all 3 of my best friends knocked out on the floor of the cement tunnel. I knew they wouldn't have woken up by my touch, but looking at each of them with blood all over made me break into tears. I looked around, I remember seeing blood was all over the floor, making me gag at the smell.

I heard a noise I remember and it didn't come from my friends, instead it was behind me. I can remember standing up and turning around to look at the man. Well two of them actually. One of them had brown eyes and light brown hair. The other man had blonde hair with a blue streak in it and brown eyes.

The man with brown hair pushed me to the ground, and kicked my stomach. I also remember that the man with blonde hair had tied to me a chair. Everything else after that was a blur. Now, I'm currently in some forest alone. I have no idea how the hell I got here but it was scarier then shit. I felt my stomach growl, I knew that I was hungry but there is no Pizza Hut around here for me to eat at. I sighed and curled up into a ball.

I really missed Diego and my best friends, I've honestly have never felt this alone before. My stomach growled again. God damn it, I knew that if I don't eat anything soon I'll die and right now I felt like dying, but I don't give up that easily. I attempted to find 7 sticks, I bent them and made it in a bow. Now all I had to do was make some arrow and something I could use as string. So I took the bow and walked along the never ending forest.

It was winter, all the tree's have lost its leaves, so I could see everything surrounding me. But for some reason, this area had no snow and it was very warm. The sunshine glared through the tree's as I walked along through the forest. Every step I took made me shiver, I had no idea what was out here in the forest. It seemed never ending. I looked around and found a bush with sharp sticks, heh this might work.

I managed to pull the sharp sticks out of the bush, only cutting myself once. I but the non-sharp end of the bows into my butt pocket of my new designer skinny jeans. I sighed with the thought that these $215 skinny jeans I had bought are destroyed.

I walked around hoping I could find something to use as a string to pull back my arrows. I walked around the opposite side of the forest. I had seen a bridge in the distance along with a swamp. The swamp smelled like dead shit. I came up under a bridge that had vine hung around it. I grabbed a small piece of vine, attached it to the bow and placed it in my hand. I needed a target to practice, or to see if this thing even worked. I saw tree to my right and pulled back into my aim. I released the arrow (stick) and it flew into the tree.

"It's time." I said giving a dirty smile to the tree.

*******
It's been an hour and I still haven't found something to hunt. I was literally ready to eat anything because I was so hungry.

It was starting to get dark, meaning that the night was just about to get even worse. Who knows what the hell is out here in this forest at night. I didn't wanna get eaten by some 3 eyed monster. I walked along the forest, I thought of Diego, he's probably gonna break up with me once I get back. Or hopefully make it home.

I had made my way back into the forest. I saw a bunny but it was way to fast so I didn't even aim close to it. Sucky thing is that I am running out of arrows, I only have 3 left. So instead of hunting I decided that I wanted to take a break from hunting, especially since it was getting colder and darker outside. I made my way through the swamp and went back under the tunnel. It was the safest place I could find. I was in desperate need of water but I also needed sleep. I saw a boat to my right and I slowly walked over to it. I stepped into the boat, looking inside of it, it wasn't so dirty so I figured why not sleep I'm here. I was so tired, I yawned and sighed, laid my head back, curled up into a ball and fell into a deep sleep.
