Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

It's dark and the hallways are small. Footsteps echo off of the concrete walls. Sometimes I hear a small splashing sound when I step in a small puddle on the ground. The air was filled with the smell of decay and death. Once again I can hear it coming closer. It's laugh fills me with fear. It's found me again..it keeps coming. It has no form, just shadow. It's eyes drip blood from the sockets. The crimson liquid drips down the beast to it's long shadowy claws.

It reaches out for me again and I run. I run as fast as I can, making my legs hurt and my lungs burn. It's still behind me and getting closer. The shadow is right on my heels. It reaches out and leaves four long gashes across my back. The pain is tremendous but I can't stop running. If I do, I'll end up dead.

Running, running, running, the blood drips down my back and down my legs. It's filling my shoes, making it harder to run. I'm getting dizzy and tired. I trip over my own feet and fall forward to the floor. My hands and body hit the hard concrete floor.

I know that I shouldn't but, I turn onto my back and look up. The beast is there standing over me. It's bloody eyes begin to drip on my face and a smile filled with sharp yellow teeth spreads across its dark face. The claws start to rip at my chest. It stabs me again and again. I scream and try to get away, but I'm starting to black out. Before I go, I feel the sharp blade of it's claw on my neck. I can't move, can;t scream. A second of pain and it's done. I lay there bleeding out staring off down the long dark hall...forever.
