The Bad Color

*in M. Night Shyamalan's The Village universe*

*set ten years before The Village*

Ivy was not the first to venture into the woods. Actually, many went before her but never returned. But where did they go?

Willow is fifteen years old and is different from everyone else in the village. She always wanted to discover what else was in the world but was always kept in her village by the creatures that lurked in the woods. At first it's a secret when she plans her escape into the woods until her long time friends discovers her secret. Though her friend doesn't want her to leave, he helps her plan her way through the forest and exactly what do when she finds a creature. Of course, there is one important thing she must remember if she really doesn't want to come across a creature...stay away from the bad color.
