6- Headlights
I start to run away without looking back, but I hear a woman yell "stop, please!" I turn around to see a beautiful woman, she looks like she's in her mid 30's she's about my height, she has very fair skin, and dark brown hair. I ask her why she stopped me. "I saw you running over here, you looked scared... lost, in pain, I just want to help you." I look down at my arms and legs, I have cuts, bruises, and blood all over me.
"I... no... I'm fine, thank you anyway"
She lets out a sigh
"you're not fine, please come with me just for a day or two, I can help you...sorry my name is Laura by the way"
I follow her only for a few minutes until we reach this huge wooden cabin and she brings me inside to a room that she said I could stay in for now if I would like to. "Thank you" I say quietly as she leaves the room
Now I have to plan out another escape, I can't stay here, it could be dangerous for me or for her.
"Okay, well I'm on the main floor right now" I whisper. I can easily get out of this window I just have to figure out when.
Laura calls me out to the kitchen to eat supper. She made mashed potatoes with gravy and some home made biscuits and chicken. I eat quickly, put my plate in the sink and run back to the room I'm staying in. I shove all of my stuff back into my backpack and wait until it's late enough for me to leave.
******************
I watch my clock and count down the minutes until soon enough it reaches 12:36AM, I hear a soft knock on my door and I tell whoever it is that they can come in, it was Laura, telling me she was going to bed and if I need anything just ask or to help myself. She slowly walks out and closes the door behind her with a small click I hear the door shut and Laura walk up the stairs.
I kept waiting and waiting until it was 2:47AM I grabbed my bag and my knife off the bed, opened the window and pushed myself out. A cold breeze sends shivers down my spine and I keep walking in the pitch Black Forest.
***********************
I eventually come across what looks like a road but there was no sign of any vehicles, road signs or life at all. I decide to follow the road going west.
I get really tired and feel like I'm about to pass out, I can't stop, what if someone finds me, so I just keep walking. My eyes get heavier and heavier every step I take.
I start to fall over and the last thing I see before everything went black are two, bright, round headlight beams, blinding me as I fall to the ground
