The rustle in the forest comes to life

    by: Teerich - 2019 Author IconMail Icon
Steven pulled himself together and cleared his throat as he felt her comforting grip on his hand.

"It was just a silly story. I wasn't paying much atten..." His words petered out as the air around them took on a sudden chill. The hair on the back of his neck prickled and Laura's heart began to pound in her chest as they pulled their cloaks around them.

A thin grey mist began to rise from the floor of the forest, chilling first their feet and then their legs. The two friends began to run along a faint path through the trees. The leaves on the trees began to whisper even though there wasn't one single breath of wind moving the branches.

The mist seemed to grow thicker as they ran. They stumbled over unseen rocks and roots hidden under the thick damp blanket, barely managing to keep on their feet as they hurried along the path. The gentle rustle grew louder as they ran, until they felt that they were being pursued by howling banshees.

Terror drove them on until they noticed a faint light in the distance. Steven pulled Laura behind an old gnarled oak and leant on the trunk, gasping to recover his breath before peering round the trunk towards the light.

"We have 3 choices, Laura."
