I shuddered as the wind turned cold and mixed with the shrill cries of the animals in the forest.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" My ears cringed at the horrible shriek, deafening, ear splitting and terrifying.
"What WAS that?" I wondered to myself, the sound had ceased but it still disturbed me.
"AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SOMEONE!" Came the same voice from the forest. My eyes darted toward the source, the very center of the forest, someone was screaming. I stood there for minutes listening to the screams of pain, agony, maybe even terror. Finally, against my better judgement I went towards it.
"Hello?" I called.
"Is someone there?" A voice responded. I smiled inspite of myself.
"Yes, where are you?" I asked.
"I don't know, I can see you from here though!" it responded. I looked around when finally I caught a glimpse of white in the trees.
"Can you climb down?" I shouted up.
"Afraid not, my arms wounded!" he called down.
"Alright I'll come up then!" I said backing up. I stepped back a good ten feet then charged at the tree. My foot landed in a groove and I climbed up. The patch of white turned into the beginning of a blue forehead. Leading down to a red face mask paint, deep black marble eyes met my baby blue ones.
"Hello," I whispered.
"H…hi," he choked out. I smiled gently extending my hand.
"Let's get you down," I said softly. He nodded putting his hand in mine, it was warm and soft and I held it firmly.
"Ciera," I said.
"Bugease," he said.
Hope it's looking better for you and let e know if I should expand the chapters more, it just seemed a good cliff hanger.
