this forest looks nothing like the forest in the story --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I didn’t know what to do, so I ran. I ran to the edge of my world. I ran into the forbidden forest, which they said was full of dark, vile secrets. I ran until my legs couldn’t carry me anymore. I collapsed. I laid there for days, drifting through consciousness. When I finally awoke, I felt the air buzzing. I heard the wind whispering, urging me to run, to leave this dreaded place. I pushed myself to my feet, but stumbled back to the ground. I felt lightheaded, but I didn’t care. I forced myself back to my feet, tripping through the dark. I tried to be as quiet as possible, for fear of awaking the beasts that lurked in the dark. Suddenly, a twig snapped beneath my stride, and I felt the aesthetic change. From foreboding and scaring to sharp and attentive. Something moved through the dark. I tried to get away, but exhaustion kicked in, and I collapsed once more. On my side I lay, trying desperately to track the beast I had awakened. I caught glimpses of blue and white shimmering through the dark. No, I thought. Not shimmering, glowing. It stalked towards me, but my vision was blurring, either from fatigue or weariness, I wasn’t sure. Everything faded to black. I awoke to the feeling of dense fur on my face and hands. Slowly, I opened my eyes and lifted my head. Beneath me, an intense blue and white glow sang to my appraisal. I looked forward and saw a pair of glowing white ears. They turned to the side, and a face looked back at me. The glowing face of a tiger, his eyes burning into me. Once he was aware of my consciousness, a sharp thought rang through my mind. “Hold on,” it said. The voice was not mine, but somehow I knew it was his. I tightened my grip just in time. His pace picked up and wind buzzed by my face. Suddenly, my surroundings blurred together and I couldn’t make anything out. We were traveling at the speed of light. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- hope you enjoyed!
