~Darkness Falling~

~I only own my OC~

It was dark. The forest a blur around him. The small German boy ran, eyes wide with fear. The forest seemed endless, and the fog was in layers on everything. He heard the footsteps behind him, but he refused to look back. If he did, it would take him...

His breath came out in ragged uneven pants, and he began slowing down.

'No... No! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!' the voice in his head screamed.

He felt tears well up and his path became cloudy. He felt a wrist harshly grab his ankle and his eyes became wider as he fell. His scream, harsh and rough sounding, echoed around him and his eyes shut and it pulled him into it's darkened form-

Eye's flashed open and the four year old woke, startled from the frightening nightmare, his blond hair plastered to his fore-head with sweat and his mouth open in a wide O. His big and round blue eyes were open very wide, scanning for something in the shadows while he panted.

His Big Brother was already beside him, eyes filled with concern. His Vater rubbed sleep filled eyes, while his other big brother- Step brother was the term...- watched from the other side. The other two brothers watched from the doorway.

The small boy made a soft, whimpering sound before he burst into tears. Vati picked him up and rocked him, humming a soft good night song.

Big Brother decided to as once the boy was calmed down. "What's up, kiddo?" He asked softly, petting his hair.

"B-b-bad d-d-dweam..." he snuffled out. He recieved a kiss on his head.

"It's nothing to worry about. It'll all be alright." Big brother told him with a huge grin.

And, at that time, being four and that having been his first nightmare, he was inclined to believe them

"It's all just a dream... You don't have to worry."

"Yeah! You'll get over it real quick. In the morgen, it'll all be forgotten."

"It's nothing to be afraid of. They'd have to get past everyone to hurt you."

"Mhmm."

And the boy drifted to sleep.

Too bad, that they were all, so ever wrong.

~Now, I do not plan to translate the German unless it gets to the point where there's so much that I have to. Figure them out on your own.

And the next thing... This story will get off to a slow start to build up plot, because I'm a major B- that way. This story will be in first person for here on out and may become a sequel. It will depend. Now, next chapter, there's something big that happens~
