It was a dark night, a dark, cold night of the new moon. The rain splayed down, tap, tap, taping all around, destroying the perfect silence, the darkness tearing away at everything it could get its hands on, welcoming every wavering light, every wandering soul into its deathly embrace.
And through darkness, I ran, fleeing as if for dear life. They were coming, approaching, gradually closing in, gaining speed,wearing me out.
"She's there, get her!"
My heart sank. I could already hear their footsteps coming nearer, only some one hundred paces away...no, fifty...no, twenty...
Who were they? No idea. And for some reason, I wasn't quite tempted to find out.
I risked a glance back, just in time to see a familiar black shape appear just around the corner.
No, it can't be. I gasped, nearly screaming out loud with panic. But it just can't be it.
I looked back again, and in that one mil-second, I lost my balance, tripped, and fell.
The shadows silently approached me, fixing me with their glowing, blood-red eyes, penetrating me with their fiery gaze.
I tried to back off, every last bit of my panicking mind screaming for me to run, to flee, before it was too late. But for some reason, my body refused to respond.
"Run!" I could almost hear myself desperately screaming, "Just RUN!"
My muscles refused to move. It was as if my soul was being drawn towards them, towards the fiery shadows that I so much feared.
They had surrounded me. Now, there was no escape. The lead shadow took a step towards me.
Suddenly, everything become dark, and my eyes are too heavy to open it. I feel so dizzy, and then I lost feeling.
Once I open my eyes, I found everything around me are strange, I realized this space are not in the earth. " where am I ?" did I leaped through the time to the future?
