I leapt over the tall bush wall and ran through the forest. I looked back, trying not to think about the thing chasing me.
I kept running until I was sure I lost it and sat down on the ground trying to catch my breath without making too much noise.
I knew I wouldn't make it until I was in a town, village, city, ANYTHING where there were people.
I looked at my legs from under my capris. They were bloody, bruised, and scratched.
I got up, putting my messy blonde hair into a ponytail, and stretched.
It's not safe here.
