Danny woke up, that wouldn't be too strange if it wasn't for the fact that it was midnight and it sounded like someone was knocking on his door. 'It's probably Jazz checking up on me' he decided to check, he opened his door but no one was there, he decided to close the door. Before he could he heard it again, but this time it was coming from downstairs. He stepped out of his room and made his way downstairs, as he climbed down each step he could hear the knock getting louder. The knock was coming from the back door, 'Why would anyone knock on the back door ?' Danny thought to himself as he snuck towards it. He peeps through the blinds to see what was outside only to be met with darkness. He decided to head back upstairs, but he felt strange, all of sudden he has this strong urge to walk into the forest behind the abandoned play ground. So he made his way to the abandoned playground, barefeet and wearing nothing but his pajama pants, he strolled into the forest as if in a trance.
He was at the center of forest when the urge simply went away, he was sure he didn't know where he was and was very lost. There was nothing but trees around him, he didn't know what came over him or why he decided it was a good idea to come into the forest. He slumped against a tree, he didn't have any light on him so he could barely see anything but what was being illuminated by the moon. He was cold, and his feet hurt, they were also blistered he was sure. CRUNCH, that sound shocked him from his thoughts, he couldn't see what it was and that frightened him. He decided to search the ground for something to use as a weapon, he found a fallen tree branch the size of a baseball bat, he slowly got up and tried looking around him again. CRACK, he looked to where the sound was coming from, nothing but shadows, that was until a pair of glowing eyes appeared. He stared, the eyes stared right back, he backed away , the eyes followed him. He could barely make a silhouette, but it looked the shape of a person, as the thing came closer, he could see it clearer and it was indeed a person, a man specifically. The man was tall, he was built like a warrior, his face was pale under the moonlight, his hair appeared silver wherever moon touched it and eyes were piercing red. He was dressed in rags, looking very much like a hobo. Danny was finally feeling it now, that sick feeling in his stomach, it was dread, the man smiled as if he was satisfied with what Danny was feeling. Danny could see it on his face, the man enjoyed the fear he was feeling and seeing the man pearl white teeth Danny was bursting with it, because what should be normal canines on a human, were sharp, long fangs glistening with saliva.
The man walked towards Danny with supernatural speed and before could breathe out the man was before him, gently caressing his face as his mother would when looking for a sign if were injured. But this was a sick version of it, this was more like appraisal, the man was checking if he was good enough, probably if he was good enough to eat. He looked up into the eyes of the man, if was going to die he'll at least die with his dignity, The man seemed to smile even wider "You're perfect," he purrs, then as quick as a serpent he bit into Danny's neck. Danny was in so much pain, it felt as if his life was being torn away from and soon as the pain started the man pulled away from Danny and cradled him in arms and whispered to him softly "You're perfect and all mine," that was last thing he heard as his vision faded to black.
The first thing Danny noticed as he woke up, was the sun in his face, he also felt like he slept on the ground. With a groan, he slowly opened his eyes, only to be blinded by the brilliant rays coming from between the canopy of trees he was apparently under. He slowly opened his eyes again, now prepared for the onslaught of sunlight. He thought last night was a dream, but here he was in the forest resting on tree roots wearing nothing but his pajama pants. His neck felt stiff, his back was killing him and feet felt like he walked on broken glass, to put it lightly Danny felt like shit. He slowly got up and looked around him, trying to remember from which way him came last night, there was nothing but trees , he decided to walk until he came up on a trail from there he might end up on a path that'll lead him to town, he hoped.
Sam was bored, why? Because she was dragged to the mall by her friends only to stare as they tried on clothes. Sometimes she wondered why she subjected her to this torture, but she knew the answer to that, she was attached to them. Pauline, Star and Valerie were her friends sisters even, so here she was watching prance in designer clothes like peacocks, as she sat giving them her opinion. They were choosing outfits for back to school and the party that Friday, Sam didn't care much about clothes, 'she had a trailer full of them that came in lastnight' so she decided she would tag along giving them another pair of eyes. But looking at clothes all day can get a little depressing "Well I'm out, " she stated as got up and left not even giving the squealing girls a glance as she walked out of Straight out of Paris boutique and headed to the food court. She ordered a veggie burger and a water to munch on while she waited. It didn't take long for her friends to meet her in the food court, struggling to keep their bags in their hands without toppling over from shear amount. "What's your deal Sam? you just left us without a word," shouted Valerie as she towered over Sam, said girl merely stared at her as if she had just asked a stupid question, "You seemed to be having fun, so I decided to grab something to eat," she answered, Star and Paulina just looked between the two, knowing not to but in. But they didn't have to worry since Valerie calmed down and took a seat, this giving them the que to sit down as well. They spent the rest of the day at Paulina's house binge watching anime and reading magazines.
Danny has been stumbling through the forest for hours, he was hungry and tired, but he couldn't stop he was almost out of there he could feel it. He walked until he was standing in front of what looked like the edge of the forest, but it was more of a small slope over looking a, school? Danny decided to check it out, and I was indeed a school, Casper High in fact, the same school he was registered to attend in the next week. He was relieved he finally could his bearings home, from the school he walked towards the abandoned playground and slowly made his way home.
Jazz was worried, her parents had left early that morning for out of town business and weren't expected to come back until later that evening but that was not had her worried, her brother was missing. At first she thought he went out for a early morning walk, that's what she told her parents as they left. It was now three pm, she decided she was going to ask her new friends to help her search for him before her parents arrived tonight, if she couldn't find him by then she'd tell her parents and let them call the police. As she pondered this a knock came from the door, she rushed towards it hoping it was Danny. Opening it she couldn't believe what she saw, it was Danny, but he looked exhausted, bloody and haggard, like he was kidnapped from his bed and then tortured with tiny blades. "Aren't you going to let me in ," he said out of breath, stumbling into her arms as went towards him, he was out like light.
