They were standing in a forest. Darkness surrounded them, as their breath drew short from the eerie silence. It felt like they were being watched among the tall trees, as everywhere they looked they saw only black.
After standing in one spot for what like an eternity, they began walking forward, their feet crunching the leaves and twigs beneath them, making that the only sound they could hear. They didn't have any sense of direction. As they continued on, they could only barely see outlines of the trees. Somehow, they felt like the trees all looked the same.
They also felt something stalking them. Something twisted and evil. Something with ill intent.
Something familiar.
They looked around them. Nothing. Just trees. Trees, darkness and...
...a person?
They saw something that looked like a person. Not just any person...
...a human.
The human looked confused and scared. It was looking around itself frantically, all while shifting between walking and running. The human kept going further away, away from them.
"FOLLOW"
They heard a voice in their head. A voice they heard somewhere before, but didn't know where. They decided to obey.
Slowly, they started going after the human, following exactly in their footsteps. Soon enough, the human was again in their sight. It was looking more desperate by the second.
"CLOSER"
The voice commanded. They obeyed.
Closing the distance between them and the human, they felt a rush of emotions they couldn't describe. Like some sort of euphoria. They wanted more.
As they quickly moved in closer toward the human, the emotions were getting stronger and stronger, taking over their whole body. They felt like heaven.
Then, the human turned around and looked at them. It's face was blurred. Insignificant. They knew what they wanted.
They wanted the human's SOUL.
"SOUL. HUMAN SOUL"
The voice was almost singing in their head, pleading to get closer to the only thing that was important in this life.
The human began screaming and started running away. They didn't understand why.
There was nowhere to run.
In one swift move, they could have grabbed the human and take what was rightfully theirs. But they never did.
"OPPOSITION"
The voice said in a panicked tone. They turned around.
They saw Kris.
Kris told them to stop.
"DON'T LISTEN"
Kris told them to leave the human alone.
"KILL"
Kris told them to go away.
"K I L L"
Kris told them...
"I SAID KILL"
... that it's going to be okay.
"KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILLKILL"
...They listened to Kris.
They SPARED the human.
( I might tag this as horror. Maybe. Also sorry for the short chapter.)
