As night falls on the setting sun,she hurrys past the woods to her right hand side..
Looking down at her watch she sighs. Running late!
She knew instinctivly that she shouldn't cross through the woods but it would cut her journey in half,and her mother did hate her being late.
She decides to risk it,turning of the path and heading deep into the forest.
She hears the branch cracking behind her,she spins around fast gazing into the darkness scanning for any movement.
"Somebody there"!
She turns back to her direction, her speed increasing as she hurrys forward. Again the cracking of a branch stops her in her tracks.
"Who's there"?
The voice at her back had her freezing in terror a second before she turned..
Her scream echoed around her as she felt the blade sink past flesh and bone.
Moments later her lifeless body falls to the ground,the figure standing at her feet,gazing down upon her..her still beating heart in his hands..
