Running......Panting......More running. The forest was dark at the witching hour. Fog covered the ground like a fresh, and ghostly snowfall. I made it to a small creek. I stopped to catch my breath and surveyed my surroundings. I couldn't see anything, but I could sense something different. I put my back to a tree and waited. Just as I was about to move, a shadow caught my eye.

The shadow was quick,but the shape was indistinct. I slowly move around the tree to where it wouldn't be visible to the figure. This however didn't work out. The next thing I knew, a pair of golden eyes is staring into mine. I couldn't breath. the eyes moved closer, I wanted to move but I was stuck in place. The figure started to shift into an almost human-like shape.

"I win darling." a smooth and baritone like voice says in my ear. The seductive tone in his voice made my whole body tingle. "I can now get what I deserve." The figure moved in closer to my lips, but before anything could happen a twig snapped in the distance which brought me out of my slumber. When I looked around I found myself on my bedroom floor.
