It had been a blissful 5 years with the man I fell in love with. Until the day that he died. We had made plans to go hiking in the mountains and camping for a week. Three days in is when everything took a turn for the worse. We had just set up camp and where ready to call it a night when we heard it. A high pitched scream ran through the forest and Max insisted on going to help whoever it was. You see I used to be an utter wimp so I was trying to convince him to stay away from it. I should have tried harder. He ran towards the screaming and I followed after him. I wasn't about to be alone... In the woods.... Where there are screaming people... We were jumping over tree limbs and trying not to trip over any rocks on our way. we finally reached a clearing. Max didn't even hesitate. In the middle of said clearing there was a woman being held by a pale and skinny man. It looked like she had planned on camping as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- READ FOR MORE!

My dream continued the one I'd been having for the past couple of nights. I ran, gasping for breath, through the familiar woods from a dark figure behind me. The faster I tried to run, the slower I seemed to go, until it was like I was running in place. I knew I needed to run. I was terrified of what the figure would do when he caught me. "Mara Leigh," a deep, smooth voice called. It was almost hypnotic. That was new. The figure had never spoke before now. I ran as fast as I could go, eyes searching the forest floor for a big stick or something that I could use to defend myself. "Mara Leigh!" the voice came again, this time more insistent. The forest slowly started to fade and I started to awake to someone shaking my shoulders. "Beau?" I mumbled, turning my head to the side. What's Beau doing in my room this time of night? Why is he shaking me? "Do not call me that name." My eyes flew open as I jumped at the voice from my dream. A face was right in front of mine, and just like the voice, it wasn't Beau. Before I could form a scream, a hand covered my mouth. I tried to bite it but I couldn't get my mouth to open. He's too strong. I started to use my whole body to try to get away, but he crawled on top of me, holding me down. I pulled the hidden knife out from under my pillow and slashed as hard as I could at him, but he just grabbed my wrist and squeezed it until the pain made me drop the knife. Then he grabbed both my hands in one of his and held them over my head. He held me down while I struggled. I grunted and moved and tried to kick and scream, but I only wore myself out. Exhausted, I stopped thrashing and let the tears flow freely down my cheeks. I didn't know what to do, so I just tried to prepare myself for whatever was coming.
