"Serena where are you going these woods are dangerous." Xavier yelled but I didn't stop walking. " I would find my way back tell Tisha I'm alright"I shouted louder than I wanted to. I wrapped my arms around myself, I didn't know where I was going all I knew is I wanted to be as far away from Xavier as I could. I felt like I was walking in circles,every tree looked the same, the moon's light was shaded by the tall tree making it harder for me to see the ground underneath me. I tried turning on my GPS but I couldn't get a signal, "Come on! "I yelled so frustrated, I could have just stayed back in my room watching a cheesey movies and stuffing my face with nuts rather I am out in the middle of nowhere with no way of getting back. I heard a rustling sound from a little rose bush near by, I paid no attention to it, it could be a rabbit or any other little animal who got trapped in it's thorns. I became alarmed when the sound became louder, curiosity got the best of me and I crouched Infront of the bush, I peeped through the thorns to see what got caught in it, but what I saw didn't look like any animal I have seen, it didn't look like an animal at all. It looked like a ball but, it was glowing and it pushed itself against the thorns of the bush trying to escape I guess. I took off my scarf wrapping it around my arm carefully reaching into the bush trying to grab it. It wiggled and dodged all my attempts to grab it " Just stay still" I muttered trying to get a good grip on the thing. " Ouch!" I screamed retracting my arm from the bush,a thorn dangling on my finger. "This is what I get for trying to help" I muttered gently pulling the thorn from my finger, it left quite a mark which hurt really badly. I tore out a piece of my scarf wrapping it around my bruised finger. " Listen up you little freak I'm only trying to help ..." I looked at the bush but, that little thing was gone I looked around me but, I couldn't find it. Maybe it was never even there, my subconscious hinted. I sighed picking up my scarf, wrapping it around my shoulders once more, I have had enough for one night. I stood up to continue my search back to the hostels when I saw that little creature beside a tree. " So you didn't need help, you could have just said that" I yelled, "it can't speak Serena "my subconscious said,I might actually be losing my mind. I rubbed my head gently looking back at the thing. " It seems you are alright so I think I would be on my way" I turned heading back the way I came. The little ball floated Infront of my face which caught me off guard and I tripped falling flat on the ground. The tress spinned around for a while, I raised my head up to find it resting on my belly. " Why you ungrateful little thing" I yelled trying to grab it ,It dodged my grip easily, floating away from me. I stood up, still a bit dizzy. "You get back here right now" I said angrily but, it kept going, what is this thing anyway. I ran towards it hoping this time I could give it a piece of my mind . The faster I ran the faster it floated away. It was actually quite fun chasing after it, I nearly forgot that I was lost in the woods. It slowed down as we came to a part of the forest with no trees, the ground felt very soft and cold, turns out I was actually walking around in circles. There were these figures not to far away from us but, I could not make out what the were It suddenly stopped, resting on a carved stone sculpture. A sculpture in the middle of the forest, can this night get any weirder. The sculpture looked very old it was a woman who had no eyes, something about it sent shivers down my spine,not too far from it were order sculptures , I walked past each sculpture stopping Infront of two large wolf sculptures which faced a girl I.... thought looked like me. I decided the only reasonable explanation was I was just tired. "Why did you bring me here" I turned to the ball which was now only a few feet away from me." It can't still speak" I reminded myself. It floated away and I followed it, "where are we going" I asked looking back at the sculptures one last time. It led me back to the rose bush floating on top of it. "That's it, what...why are we back here" I said looking around "wait I thought...." I said turning to it but, it was gone. "This is got to be a dream" I said placing my palm on my temple. " Who does he think he is" A voice echoed through the woods. That voice not again my heart pounded , I could barely breathe. I hid behind a tree hoping he wouldn't see me. "Wait you're telling me that Xavier punched you in the face because of some bitch, what an ass" another voice said I think he has company . " She was fucking pretty, he never minded who I messed around with... I wonder what's so special about this chick" That asshole said throwing something in my direction . " Xavier cares for no one but,if he actually nearly knocked your teeth out because of her then I think I have a plan on how to pay him back for last fall " the other guy said quietly. "Yeah but, that's pretty dangerous I don't want to have Xavier as an enemy plus you remember what happened to the last guy who tested him" the asshole said, I could not risk being caught by him again. I crawled slowly trying to be as quiet as possible. " What if he doesn't find out all we need to do is .... What the hell is that noise, is sounds like a phone " the other guy said walking towards my direction. My alarm rang loudly echoing through the quiet forest, I tried turning off the damn thing but,my fingers were all sweaty and shaking ,"who is there " the pig said not too far away. I tossed my phone into a bush crawling away from it" Don't let us come there " he shouted throwing a plastic cup a tree . My heart pounded harder than before, my bones felt numb, I kept crawling only a little faster until I couldn't hear their voices anymore. I stood up dusting my scraped knees. I walked slowly, stumbling on rocks,my knees hurt and I felt very dizzy. I wished I had just stayed back in my room, this was not what I had planned my second night here would be. "Yo sexy! did you think you could get away that easily" the pig said not far away
I turned and saw him and the other guy coming towards me. I ran faster than I had ever before , pushing through the thick branches yet I wasn't fast enough. I tripped and fell scraping my elbow, my vision blurry. I tried getting up but, I was already surrounded. "Where do you think you're going" the pig said squatting beside me.
