Slender Forest
As the trees close in around, you look up to see their black silhouettes, jagged across the darkening sky. The wind whines and howls, rustling the leaves and causing the trees to groan in pain. It's hard to say if you're truly alone. You hear no birds, no insects, no life of any kind and yet.... the undesirable urge to look behind you prickles your body. A lump grows in your throat and your stomach turns causing you to go weak at the knees. Your fight or flight response is kicking in and you know that in this darkness, so lost and vulnerable, you stand no chance.
You step forwards and falter, legs buckling you crash to the floor. You can feel it right behind you, mere inches away. You close your eyes and a tear breaks free and slides down your cheek, you can feel it staring at you. DO NOT TURN AROUND!
