Bloody Ties

This is a story that I wrote for an English paper, people enjoyed it, so I thought I'd share.

Thomas was an adventurous young man in his time. He loved nature and adventure, never liked the idea of being tied down. When his family drops the bombshell of him being engaged to one of the most sought after girls in town, he looks for a way to have one final adventure. No one expected it'd end like this. It's just a way to blow off steam, an adventure, right..?
