Shadow

We quickly got Emily on her feet and we took off. Emma "Um why are we running away instead of fighting this thing?" Andrew "Ya that's a good question let's just get back to the castle."

We got to the castle and we went to my room. "Can you tell us what happened out there Emily?" She looked up at us with a scared look on her face...."It was like a dark scary shadow. All I could see was darkness and bright red eyes. "You said it was a he...a boy?" "Ya he told me he was coming for you."

I walked to my window and looked towards the forest ( I knew I saw something. ) "Well this is my home so I'm going back and find answers." Hannah "You can't go alone it sounds dangerous." "I don't care we have dealt with this stuff before." Emily "Just be careful ok?" "I will..."

I looked at everyone than I jumped out of my window and went right to the woods. "Now what have I been seeing and what freaked Emily out?" I looked for tracks or any sign of a struggle. "What's that sound?" I turn around to see a little cute animal. "What are you little guy?" It was black with gold looking eyes. "Why are you here?" I try to move towards it when it poofed away and reappeared a few feet to the right. "Wow....how did you do that?"

???"You shouldn't try to touch it." I turn around but there's no one there. "Whos there show yourself now." I heard movement from my left so I quickly looked that way. A boy walked out of the woods. "Who are you?" ???"...." He didn't say a word all he was doing was looking at me but I was starting to get a bad feeling. He walked side to side but didn't move his eyes. "Ill ask you again who are you?"

???"So your the princess I expected more." What was wrong with this boy what he's saying makes no sense. "Why are you here did you scare my friend?" He picked up the animal and it sat on his shoulder. Than his eyes went back to me. "Ah that was your friend Emily right?" (How does he know her name?) "Do you know us?" "I see everything." "My name is Ben and I'm here to send you a message." "Oh ya and what would the message be." "Hahaha I'm not telling you."

He walked over to me and quickly grabbed my throat. "Gasp" "Why...are....you...doing this?" "I'm going to kill you and your friends. Ill keep you awake at night. Ill be everywhere watching you." "You cant defeat shadows." He let go of my neck and I fell to the ground catching my breath. The animal on his shoulders jumps off and came towards me. It jumped at me and bit my wrist. "AAHHHHH"

"Good luck princess ill be back real soon we have some talking to do."
