Into the Woods

Abbie's Story-My version of Dagon

It was ice cold, it was pitch dark with no light to be seen, I was looking for Bullet. I could barely make out my surroundings. I was standing in the middle of what looked like a circle of trees. One of the trees looked like it had a face. Another tree looked like it had a hand reaching out towards me, about to snatch me up and tear me apart, but of course it was just an oddly shaped branch. That didn't stop me being afraid though. All of a sudden a heard a hoarse husky whisper that sounded like a females voice. It said,
"Don't be afraid...turn around and come towards me..."
I felt my stomach tighten. I started to sweat. I froze. What was I going to do? I started to turn around and walk towards the creepy, mysterious and terrifying voice. Very slowly, slower than a snail. I didn't want to turn around but I couldn't stop myself it was like a magnet pulling me towards it, And then....
I stopped...I dropped on my Knees and started to scream so loud it you would've heard it in a different galaxy...Bullet, my companion, my social buddy, he's...
DEAD!
Everything turned black and then I saw it, the voice, it was coming from an oddly shaped stick sculpture hanging from a grey tree. It kind of looked like a demonic symbol. As I got closer, closer, and closer my surroundings kept becoming more blurrier, and blurrier until...
"AAHHHH", I was falling.. falling into darkness and then I heard a child scream and banging on a door, yet not one door to be seen, 'BANG,BANG" and then I heard, "BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP..."
I sat up in a bed. I started to sweat pinballs and felt shivers down my spine. It was probably the draft coming from the window on the right side of the room I was in. The walls were pure white and the floor was a marble floor, kind of a light cyan type of colour. Three people ran towards me in a rush, asking,
"Are you ok?", and
"Get the pills!"
I realised I was breathing heavily, and my eyes were wide open, starring downwards, at the floor, not blinking. I was about to open my mouth to speak but then, I heard what seemed to be an angry doctor shout from a distance, saying, 
"HEY!! STOP THAT ANIMAL!"
Then in a blink of an eye a medium sized creature with four legs started running towards me. It had two pointy ears with a black patch on its right eye. It had thin grey hair then I realised what it was. I started to scream with joy. It was...BULLET!!!!  I was filled with joy from top to bottom, I started to sigh in relieve. The doctors stopped, tilted their heads in confusion and starred at how suddenly I became relaxed when Bullet jumped onto my bed and started to lye down on my lap. It made me calm, well calmer than before. I'm never going to get that image of Bullet lying there, with no movement, with no heartbeat, just stretched out like flattened road kill. It honestly scarred me for

life . I was just glad Bullet was alive. But the thing that gets me is that, was all of that real? Or a dream? I couldn't tell.
One of the doctors walked towards me and said calmly,
"hello, some of your neighbouring patience have been complaining about all of the hullabaloo. It is 1:34am in the morning and you need your sleep. If you see, hear, or smell anything worrying don't be afraid to push your emergency button on your left."
After the doctor said that he gave me a creepy, wide grin. It gave me a feeling that he knew something that I didn't know. It kind of creeped me out, but I didn't take much notice of it.
I was going to tell the doctor what happened, but I chose not to because they might think I've gone mad, even though I'm not...am I?
I suddenly smelt a strange smell wizzing past my face. It smelt gross. I remembered what the doctor sad so I decided to press the emergency button 'click' nothing happened, 'click, click', the button didn't work... 
Oh.. noo! Where did Bullet go? One second he was on my lap and gone the next. The doctor rushed to me and asked what was wrong, I said that bullet was gone, but the doctors started laughing and then they said,
"what are you talking about, he's right there on your lap still."
Am I going crazy?
The doctor left. Everything began to get blurry again. Oh no it was happening again. That hoarse, husky whisper was repeating over, and over again. The voice was coming from all directions. What was I going to do?
The window was open. The window. THE WINDOW!
