Running…that's all I could do. Run and run until I felt my heart was about to burst. I continued running, ignoring the stinging of the branches as they sliced past my bare face and arms. I ignored the rocks and roots that jabbed into my feet and legs; I kept going into the darkness of the forest. I felt the tears race pass my cheeks over the scratches, ignoring the stinging they gave off as the salty water ran over them. I had to get away, I had to survive. Flashes of what just happened ran through my mind over and over again. The screams, the blood, the flames. ' No.' I thought. Finally I came to a stop at an opening. The clouds let out a thunderous boom and flashes of light. Then the rain came down. It pelted my scratched body with cold rain, causing me to shake more. The opening I came to was a field surrounded by trees forming a circle. I stumbled forward out of the dark forest into the field. I felt like an open target standing in the field, like I was just asking for death. My hair plastered my head, tangled and wild. My clothes were ripped and torn and stained with red. I stood there for a minute exhausted and weak. Then I felt it. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up. My eyes widened as fear filled my body. They followed me! I turned around slowly to see them emerging from the darkness. Their eyes flashing red and their teeth bared.' NO!' I thought frantically. It can't end like this I have to go now! But my legs were frozen in place. They came closer to me. Growling and hissing they stalked towards me. I finally realized this was to be my end. I was going to die. I slowly closed my eyes and smiled. I will accept death as my clan had, my home. I would be with them soon. Then I heard it. That voice. It rang in my head like a siren.

(Fool! Run now!)

I smiled to myself.

(Why should I run?)

(Because if you die I die!)

(Why should I care? You're not real.)

I heard it growl.

(Fine I guess I have no choice. I have to fight for us!)

I didn't understand what it meant. But then I felt it. Surges of power run through me. I gasped in shock. Then everything started to go red around me. I was surrounded by red power swirling around me like a tornado of crimson blood. Then the pain came crashing through my body I let out a silent scream. My skin was on fire. Like hot liquid magma was surging through my veins. I shut my eyes tightly and began to scream. It was too much. Then it all exploded like something inside me burst through. Then everything went black. I accepted the darkness as if wrapped its calm soothing arms around me. Finally peace has come and fear has gone.
