When the room went dark, she heard her name... someone or something was calling her name.
«Sydney!»
Seconds later, she strangely found herself on the ground, in a dark cold forest. Obviously she was no longer in her home.
«Where in the world am I?» She said out loud. Not recognizing the area around her. No wonder she didn't recognize it, she couldn't remember being here before.
«Hello?!» She shouted into the wild night.
«Die...» Someone or something whispered to her.
Sydney was terrified. Who would want her dead? And why? She had to get to the bottom of this.
There has to be an explanation for how she teleported to the forest, right? She hoped this was one bad dream, but it wasn't. Unfortunately. She tried pinching herself. This was real. Terrifyingly real.
As the wind blew, she noticed that none of the trees had leaves on them. Strange... The trees was just a lot of stumps and branches. No leaves. The sky was pretty much dark, no clouds, no stars. But there was a full moon and it was red as blood. All of a sudden she heard a twig break. She turned around, but no one was there. Okay, now she was more scared.
"W-Who's there?" She shouted.
"Die..." Someone whispered, just like earlier.
But no one was there. All she saw was darkness and the red glow from the moon, and not to mention the branches.She turned back around then when she heard another sound and looked back. Someone was there. Looked like a very tall person.
"Hello?!" She shouted.
No sound from the person. They just stood there. Completely silent.
She walked towards the person. As she went closer and closer, she began to see the face of this stranger. She stopped. Stiff with fear, she tried everything to back off, but she was just stuck like that.
The tall dark figure was coming towards her. With a huge dangerous smile on their face. The eyes were looking into her soul, as if that's what it was after.
She closed her eyes for a second, took a breath and before she knew it, she was back home when she opened her eyes. Tucked nicely in her warm cozy bed. Wearing her pjs and all.
«What the-» She said.
«I could've swear I was in that cold dark forest with that terrifying thing.» She said out loud, with the lowest voice.
She wasn't sure what had just happened. Or how it happened. Or if it really happened. Has she gone completely nuts? That was the question.
Eh, it was probably a nightmare, it doesn't make sense that she teleported to a dark cold forest in the middle of the night. Sure, it was weird, but she was back in her room, and probably never left either way. She reassured herself then went off to sleep.
Not so long after, she woke up again. This time because of the temperature, it was so cold, but the window wasn't even open. She double checked.
Although her bed was warm as she described earlier, she felt this cold presence around her. As if someone was watching her. She couldn't explain it, but it sure was ice cold. Seconds later she heard scratching sounds beneath her. She checked under the bed, nothing was there... hold up... Whatever made that noise, left scratch marks on the floor. These weren't here before. What could have done that? Something with long nails. That's for sure. She was kind of spooked.
First she find herself in the middle of the woods with a creep and now this. What is going on?
