Sariphina shook as she watched the tall figure. anger raidiated from it. she quickly signed,'I am deaf.' muttering the words as she signed. it didn't help her. the being came forward, he appeared not ten feet from her. the sudden movement scared her, causing her to scream. she took a step back, slipping and falling on her bum. the Creature... well... he looked like a man... a very tall and slender Man. she tried to scramble away as she stared up into his Eyeless stare. her blue dress was starting to turn brown as she scooted away on the dirt forest floor.
her eyes went from his featurless white face to his arm which was reaching towards herher eyes widened and she attempted to get farther away from him. his hand came and hovered near her. she looked up to his face then to his hand,was he... helping her up? she timidly reached to take his hand. she hesitated before placing her small hand in his rather large hand. it wa large, but skinny, like the rest of his body. she took his hand, and with that, came a new voice. this voice was smooth and deep and it resonated through her mind."See, little one, i won't hurt you." she stared up at him. how? she was deaf, she couldn't hear anyone but herself. how could he... speak to her. 'H-How?" she thought.
she was being moved as he chuckled. he had helped her stand up, removing his hand quickly he left her. she whipped around. where could he be? why would he just leave?'Why did you go?' she asked in her head. hopefully the being heard her. but there was no awnser. she stood there... the one other voice she has ever heard in her life, just vanished. how she already felt herself craving for the company of his voice. she had no idea how this thought had entered her mind.
she mindlessly turned and started walking down the trail, her mind wandering. what was he? What did he want with her? how did he speak to her? Why did he speak to her? these questions swirled in her head. the want to hear him again... was already taking over. she blinked and looked up, seh had found the road. she blinked again and looked around, shocked. she had made it out of the woods! she looked to the sky, she had hardly noticed the fact that the sun had gone down, leaving her to walk home in the dark.
she swallowed hard and started to walked to her home. he held her notebook tightly. she couldn't help but agree with her mother at times. nighttime did frighten her. it always frightened her. the things she couldn't hear... the people that could come after her as she walked.
she looked over her shoulder to make sure no one was following her. she saw nothing, only an empty car that sat on the side of the road. she let out a deep breath.'Don't worry little one, i am watching you. nothing will harm you.' it was him. invading her mind again with his melidic voice. 'thank you...' she looked around for him, but could find him no where. she looked ahead and saw the silloette of her hame and started walked towards it again.'you have no need to thank me, i have watched over you for awhile now.' her eyes widened, but continued walking on.
he watched her? for how long? and why?! Why on earth would he watch her? she went to her front door, her house was a decent sized cape cod. she had a room on the end of the house, having two windows that over looked the side yard and front yard. she pushed the door open and stepped inside. her Mother must have heard the door close because she came in the room holding a plate as she dried it. she grinned when she saw her daughter. she brought the towel and hung it over her shoulder to sign to her daughter.' good to see you made it safely.'
Sariphina nodded,'yes, i fell asleep and took a detour.' she saw her mother laugh and leave the room back into the kitchen. Sariphina sighed and walked upstairs. she went up to her room and tossed the notebook onto her bed. she went to the window to close the curtains but stopped when she saw the one who had now consumed her thoughts.
well, i hope that satisfies your cravings! XD
