1: Alone.

1: Alone.

    Darkness scares me and that is why I never leave the lights- Vanilla Claret.

  Vanilla.

     I ventured through the huge trees in the forest, with my backpack placed firmly above my shoulders, held by my hands and my platinum white hair packed in a low bun.

It was still early in the morning which means the forest is cold and chilly, grunting, I pulled my pull over closer to me, I got only one thing from my father and that was my lack of resistance to cold.

Wrong DNA to get from your parent if you ask me, that is probably why they hate me so much and never want me anywhere near them, my Mom even denys birthing me. sighing, I put a hand on my forehead.

I have been scouting the forest for a month in hopes of finding the truth about my friends disappearance. A month and six days ago, ALB news reported a group of scientist who went to the forest for research but went missing, a day later, five out those scientists returned.

Claiming to have seen werewolf's, they claim the others were taken by the werewolf's while they were left to go. The most intruiging part of it all is that the missing scientists are all women, agile women with bright future's.

No one believes them but I do, I have interviewed them all and they all said the same thing, they were sent by their institution to go researching on a particular anomaly that was happening around the area but the bus tires got busted all of a sudden and the men cane out, trying to fix it but they we're surprised to find wolf looking creatures who were as tall as a large lion and even bigger than them.

They tried to fight but the creatures went into the bus while one of them turned human right in front of them and he loaded the girls on the back of the others, turned werewolf again and they were gone, including my best friend, my only family.

People called them crazy but I believed them.

"So, did you try searching for them? " I had asked and they nodded, one of them had forced them to still search for the others despite their fears.

"I will find something, " I muttered, clearing the bush on my way, it's been hard trying to find a clue on something, especially if you are a person with extreme curiosity.

"Ah! " I scream when something pished me from behind and I twisted my leg and fell down a hill, fear gripped me hard the moment my leg left the ground and I was falling, I tried holding onto the rocks with my fingers but I couldn't, instead it slipped through the rocks, breaking my nails and cutting through my fingers.

Just when I thought I would die, I fell straight into a pond, or is it a river? I have no idea, the source of water was surprisingly warm, surrounding it was a wall of rocks, I could see where I had fallen up ahead it would be hard to climb, in fear, I searched around for what pushed me yet I found nothing, there was no one peering at me from up and there definitely was no one around.

I had been in the forest for a month, except some of my teams who stayed for three weeks and left, I have been alone.

What could have pushed me.

I groan, trying to stand up, but to my utter dissapointment, I couldn't, it was worse than a strain, my leg had been twisted bad with scratches on it from it scratching the rock when I fell.

Blood dripped down my ankle to my leg making me wince in pain, I looked around in hope of finding an exit or something but I found nothing.

I tried calling for help with my normal phone but there was no service then I tried the walkie talkie, still the same.

Annoyed, I punched the water now drenching my whole body, the feeling was too uncomfortable. I tried to stand up again still I couldn't.

Then I tried calling out for help, still nothing, I was at the edge of fraustration when I calmed myself down, " we will get out if her V, and when we do, I will buy you a nice bucket of Vanilla ice cream and Cinnamon rolls with a caramel syruped waffle, "

I chuckled at my poor attempt at calming myself then I took out the chocolate bars out of my bag pack and chewed on it slowly.

I sat there for hours until I heard and horrifying scream, the scream was heart wrenching that the place I now realized was a cave shook, scared, I looked around, searching for the source of the scream yet no one.

"Hello! " I yelled.

"Hello!! " u yelled again, no reply.

" Is anybody there?! " i questioned in desperation yet I got no reply.

I calmed down when no one replied, "maybe it's just my hallucination, must be the sleeping pills I have been taken since my team left, " I concluded.

'Or it's the black thing that stand outside your van house every night' a voice said out of nowhere, startling me.

I gasped, looking around," w-who is it? " no reply.

"H-hello! Somebody therr?!! " I yelled again, this time, the cave began to darken.

This time, my eyes widened, Darkness, I hated the dark.

No!

No!!

No!!!

This couldn't be happening, I grabbed my bag pack, the adrenaline rushed through me like the speed of light and I ran, I ran so fast, I myself couldn't believe I could run so far.

" don't run child we are just trying to protect you," the darkness mocked just like they always did, i wasn't going to fall for their tricks this time.

The darkness was halfway near me, they pushed me, tugged at my jean, mocked me, and scratched me while I cried in pain, my eyes searched around for a place to seek solace, a lighted place, a place to hide and I found one.

A hut stood nearby, just within my reach, I ran, I ran so fast I was sure my legs were completely broken.

Just a little bit more!

A little bit!!

I can do this!!!

Please!!!!

I was almost there, I could feel it, smell it but they tripped me, that was what they loved to do, make me think i had won till they broke me.

I screamed in pain, my eyes widened in shock when I realized that my voice sounded like that of the girl screaming earlier in the cave.

I wasn't having it so I scrambled to my feet and ran and that was it, I managed to get to hut and run Into it, leaving them to their angry screams and confusion.

"Noooo! " I heard them scream from the outside while I smiled, I didn't have the time to check out my surrounding before I drifted to sleep out of exhaustion.
