"RUN!! GET OUT OF HERE!! THEY'LL KILL US!! RUN... EMBER!!!" My mind was screaming at me. I ran as fast as I could. Blood oozing down my face like sweat, from a gash in my forehead. Picking up speed and heading down hill, I knew it was close. It's fiery breathes would lick at my neck, scorching it. I fought the screams, not wanting to allow it to escape. I didn't want it to be satisfied, not yet, not now.... Trees started falling around them as the flames grew higher, swallowing the darkness into a raging inferno. Something reached up from the ground, pulling me into a hole. "NOOOO! KICK IT! KICK IT EMBER! NOW!! BEFORE WE DIE!" I kicked, hitting something in the face. "Hey! Stop it I'm trying to help." A strangers voiced soothed me. "What?!" I screamed back. "Wake up!" The stranger's hand slapped me.
