Hiding in the Darkness || Creepypasta Story (UNDER MAJOR EDITING)

Hide and Seek

Roses POV
I woke up on the forest floor.

I coughed out leaves in my mouth and stood up.

My clothes were red and my hands were cut up. I was also wearing the jacket that I got Ethan.

I looked around looking for Ethan.

Ethan: Morning.

I looked behind me and saw him. His face was clean...

Rose: How are you-

Ethan: I found a little pond nearby.

Rose: Right.... Uh... Why is your jacket on me and not you?

Ethan: Cause you were knocked out and you were cold.

Rose: Ok............ Thanks, I guess.

He smiled and I took the jacket off. I gave it back to Ethan and I went to the pond.

The cool water felt good on my face. I ran my fingers through my new haircut and stared at my reflection.

My blackish-brownish hair was tangled and my green eyes looked at me. My eyes changes color from brown to green sometimes.

I washed some blood off my arms and it was scarring up already. Weird....

I walked away and sat on a rock. I sighed.

I'm now homeless again. I looked beside me and I saw blood.

There was a trail leading to another rock.

I followed it and it was a note. Of blood.

You can't hide forever. This is just a game of hide and seek.

I could tell it was either Jeff or BEN. We have to hide...

I ran back to Ethan and he was staring off to space.

Ethan: Ever wonder why we scarred up so quickly?

Rose: Well, yeah. We have to go.

Ethan: Relax. CP heal in about a week. They can't get to us with bruises and broken bones.

Rose: How do you know so much about them?

Ethan: My baby sister was murdered by a hospital attack from the CP years ago.

Rose: Well, we all don't live forever.

Ethan: True.

Rose: Well I'll be back. I'm going for a walk.

Ethan: Ok. I'll be around here.

I ran in a random direction and closed my eyes.

Running into a hard life.

Ethan's POV
Rose ran off south of me.

She really does know what pain feels like.

I had a flask back from last night.

Slender teleported to another place and o saw Rose lying down on the forest ground. I walked up to her. Her wounds weren't bleeding anymore and they were already scabs. I looked down at my calf where I got hurt and it was also a scab. I stroked a piece of hair out of her face and laid my jacket on top of her. I leaned down against a tree, letting the bark splinter my neck. It felt good. Then, I stayed up for most of the night staring at Rose.

I climbed the tree and leaped from branch to branch.

It calmed me down for some reason.

I stopped and sat down on a branch.

I jumped down and ran back to where I told Rose I would wait for her.

I felt something was wrong... I stayed still and felt the air around me.

Rose did something bad.

I ran to where she headed off to and saw Rose on the ground.

She didn't have any wounds. It looked like she was sleeping...

Why? It was only midday.

Someone else was near...

Then, next thing I knew, I was holding BENS hand stopping a knife from stabbing my face.

He smiled deviously and I hardened my grip on his wrist.

Then, I kicked his stomach and took his knife from him.

I threw it on his head and a little bottle rolled out of his pocket.

I picked it up and it was a sleeping medicine.

This could be a good use. I opened the bottle and while BEN was weak from the knife, I shoved the liquid down his throat.

He spit it out then was sleeping.

I dropped the bottle and walked to Rose.

I poked her arm trying to wake her up. She was a year younger then me but she stilled looked cute.

I picked her up bridal style and her hair covered her face.

I ran to a safe spot and put her down.

I looked around for anywhere we could stay. I then saw a cave near by.

I picked her up again and ran to the cave.

It was small but good enough. I sat down with Rose in my arms.

Her head rested in my shoulders and her hands were gripped with a knife.

I took the knife from her and put it next to me.

I tested my head in the stone wall and wrapped one arm around Rose.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep. But, before I could, I kissed Roses forehead.

She was my savior.
