Snippet #1455971

"Hey!"

Requiem instantly jumped, her stomach flipping as she turned the flashlight on and swung it toward the direction of the voice. Her hands were shaking and so were her legs as the wind started to blow faster and she stared at his appearance, the stars starting to come into view into the sky. As she stared at him, her eyes grew wider. A feeling in her gut... told her to run. To flee. He didn't look safe; dressed in black, with bright eyes that made her own soul shiver.

She opened her mouth but nothing came. She instantly turned and started to spring as fast as she could, staying away from the bush of woods to her right and prancing across the field with heavy footsteps and her legs moving quickly and bending with an elegant and quick force. Her hair whipped around in the cool night air as she kept running and she dove behind a rock, sitting behind it and shaking as she struggled to catch her breath but not make any noise.

She wanted to wake up now. She then realized the flashlight was on and she quickly turned it off, tucking it under her arms as she tried to stay still and silent, hoping the man who had seen her would just walk by her and forget he had seen her.
