Babe in the Woods

Kit bypassed everyone, blocked everyone out as she stumbled through the sand. When the sand turned to a well beaten path, Kit found herself going to the one place she'd kinda sworn she wouldn't go to. The caves.

The sounds from the people on the beach faded out, enveloping her senses in an eerie quiet. Her hand clenched firmly on the weapon she'd made and her steps slowed. There was no way she was alone. Kit blinked as a drop of rain hit her eye.

"Great, just what I need. And me without my handy-dandy umbrella," Kit muttered, pushing her hair out of her eyes. She trudged on, determined to get to the caves faster. "Eerie ass forest."

There was a snap to her left. Kit froze on the spot. That was not a good sign. She spun around, coming face to face with the dark haired man they'd all come to be leery of.

"It's not the forest you should be scared of," Ethan said from behind her. Kit stiffened as his hand clenched tightly on the back of her neck.

"No, just the psychos who live there, right Ethan?"

Kit felt herself being wrenched back and hurled across the slippery path. Her head smacked painfully on the ground and her grip on her weapon faltered a bit.

"I don't want you, Watcher. I guess I'm not the only one, though." Ethan said, crouching next to her. Kit wouldn't let herself cry, not even when his fist came down on her.
