Blink

Part 4

After thinking about what to do and how to save her father, Olivia took a functioning flashlight from the kitchen drawer and went out of the house.

        She walked alone into the woods, hoping to find what she was looking for. The moon was blaringly enormous that night. Her heart was pumping like a jackhammer, but she ignored her fears by thinking that she’d rescue her father soon enough.

        Suddenly, she saw a tall grey statue in the middle of the forest. The statue was wearing a long dress, had beautiful wings, all made from stone. She was covering her face with her palm. Quickly, Olivia’s fears returned and she was having second thoughts about going against them. She slowly turned around, but without her knowing, there was another statue about six feet away to the right from where she stood.

        Olivia was panting nervously. She accidentally blinked while she turned to her left. Suddenly, the first statue was even closer than before! Olivia began to panic because she was sure that the statue moved. She turned to her right and the other statue also changed position. The statues were no longer covering their faces. Their hands were stretched out. Olivia was crying, slowly backing away, while still keeping her eyes fixed on both statues. Then, out of nowhere, she heard a sound, like stone cracks moving. She can sense another third statue approaching behind her.
