This is something I wrote for school. I took it out of a piece of a larger story/novel I was writing, and made it fit the "occasion" that my teacher wanted. Hope you like!
I knew it was there. I knew from the crunch, crunching sound of dead leaves. I knew, but couldn't see. I looked to Kayla, then back to the forest, and back again to Kayla. Her brown eyes met mine, and I could see her thoughts. See what she was going to do. My eyes widened, and I opened my mouth to stop her. opened, then closed. I couldn't say anything. My fear for her safety silenced me. And my love for her opened my eyes. I could see now. See the creature-whatever it was- the creature lurking behind the trees. I could hear the growl of its breaths, and smell the fear of Kayla's heart. The creature growled again. A low, rumbling sound. Like that of a far off waterfall.
Then Kayla began walking, walking towards the black forest. She knew that she was heading for a certain death. And I knew that she knew. The wind came towards me, and I heard its secrets. It told me that the creature was hungry, hungry for us. My heart exploded with my love for Kayla. I ran, ran towards the woods. Forever getting closer, closer, closer still. I hear Kayla's scream from behind me as I ran into the blackness. I felt the sudden, but quick stabbing pain. The pain of death. I could smell my own blood and hear the creature's crunching, crunching my bones. I hear Kayla's screams. And for one second her face flashed before me. Then another pain. The pain of death.
