Moonlight

I heard a faint voice in the distance telling me something; Wake up…I was confused so I walked closer to where the voice was coming from until suddenly I heard-…WAKE UP!

Immediately I opened my eyes, but all I saw was darkness. Where am I? Who am I? As I looked around my surroundings, my eyes adjusted to where I was, which led to even more confusion. It was a grassy field full of flowers and trees, filled with apples on the branches above me. The grass was shiny and wet, which must have been rained on while I was asleep. The trees around me covered the sky, so I could only see the leaves above me. The tree trunks were a dark chocolate brown, and the leaves were as bright as green apples. The grass around me was so long that it reached up to my knees, brushing my legs as I walked by. As I observed the grass length, I saw many flowers such as blue orchids and roses. Then I saw the moonlight from above; it was so bright that it shone down light onto a small path. I might as well follow and see where it leads me. I nodded and started following the bright light. Before going any further, I crouched to one of the blue orchids and picked one up for the journey.

As I was skipping down the trail, the moonlight was getting brighter and brighter behind me, and I thought I was finally going to go where I was supposed to be. The trail ended before me, and I looked up to a big lake shimmering in the moonlight. What a beautiful sight! I saw many animals like foxes, bunnies, turtles, fishes and more everywhere I looked. The foxes were as bright as an orange, while the bunnies were a soft white like marshmallows. The turtles were dark green, like lily pads, while the fishes were all different in size and shape. I smiled, knowing I had found the most beautiful place known to man. As I looked up, I could see the whole sky full of bright shiny stars, and the moon was a full gray circle. I spun around in joy at my discovery and thought: I must tell everyone else! It's so pretty here, and I love it! I must tell…tell who again?

As I stopped spinning, I heard the same faint voice saying, What others? You're alone, and you did that to yourself.

"What do you mean?? Who are you, and what do you want from me?" I said, feeling a bit shaken up.

You know me… and I know you, go to the water and see for yourself what you did…

I walked slowly to the water in fear; I hadn't seen myself when I woke up, so maybe I should. I closed my eyes while I walked to the water until I stopped when I realized my feet were soaking wet. I slowly opened my eyes and looked at myself; I was confused at all the red substance all over me. "What is this? Why am I soaked to the brim with this weird juice?"

The voice in the distance laughed, but not in a fun way, no, it was full of anger. No… it's blood, don't you remember?! I jumped back as fear sunk into my body.

"WHY AM I COVERED IN BLOOD?!? AM I HURT?!?" I screamed asI tried to clean the blood off me.

YOU! Hurt? NO, YOU DID THIS TO ME! YOU KILLED ME, DON'T YOU REMEMBER?!? YOU MONSTER!

As the voice screamed at me, I saw black dots around my eyes. I feel like fainting, but before I do, I remember a girl with red hair covered in blood saying something…a name? My name? After having heard something, it all went to black once again.
