TALL GUY EXCERPT BEFORE FURTHER EDITS, BY @THEGAMERWOLFEY Chap 1: Tall Guy ( dot dot dot ) ? I keep seeing this weird “Figure” in my dreams, along with my dreams going dark. He is really tall ( like seven foot one, I guessed ). He is dressed in a black cloak, and it covers most of his body except for his pointy, but arched, non-human feet and his round head which looks like a black shiny bowling ball with no dents. He doesn’t have a face. He’s really tall, like 7 foot 1, and his body is also really lean, which makes me think of slenderman. He always has his hood on. He is fully black, like a void. Well, from what I can see. I am only assuming it is a man or boy. I mean, well, he talks in a manly voice, so I guess. It’s not really manly, but it’s not boyish either. Am I explaining this well? He’s like… a teen I guess. Maybe, in human ages, he would be 17? Yeah, I’m guessing so. He always says he is from the underworld and he is a “Figure,” and that one day, when I least expect it, he will see me in real life. In my dreams, I'm always running away from him in slow motion. He always walks up to me before I can get to the woods. Not gonna lie, that is kinda creepy. Okay, really creepy. Every day, I am more and more determined to protect myself from whatever might be coming. It’s creepy to know that some sort of Mr.”Figure” is coming after me. It makes me jumpy. I mean, he needs a name… ..so maybe… …Tall Guy…? Chap 2: I met Tall Guy I was walking home from school when time suddenly stopped in its tracks. Oh wait, I have to stop you in your tracks! I’m Belle Madden. I am 14, and I have long, dark brown hair down to my back. I have a light caramel complexion, and my eyes are kinda between really dark brown and brown. Like, a regular dark brown. I don’t know, I can’t describe it well! I live with my dad and mom, and I’m so scared of anything happening to them. I just… have a bad feeling… Thought maybe it’d be a good idea to write that down too… Let me start over, then. I was walking home from school, and the air smelled fresh. I felt unusually joyous today. I decided to skip home instead of walking home, and the fresh cool air blew in my face. My hair was dancing in the breeze as I skipped my way back home. But as I skipped, I noticed the air was getting cooler. The wind was blowing harder. And then another figure just like Tall Man, but with a slightly more worn down cloak, jumped in front of me and time stopped for everyone else in sight except me and him. He had cuts on his arms and legs. “Quick! We have to go!” He said. “What? No!” I snapped back. “Please, you have to trust me!” He said desperately. I had a feeling I should trust him. “Fine, then!” I said. “Be quiet and follow, hurry!” He whispered. He dashed off and I followed with me lagging behind. He was so fast with those long legs! We ran for about 30 seconds before he ducked behind a tree, and I followed. I gasped for breath, because when trying to keep up with Guy, it feels like you're chasing an airplane. “Who are you?” I whispered in curiosity after I caught my breath. “I don’t have a name.” He said. Ugh, disappointment. Then it came to me: maybe I could suggest- “What about Tall Guy?” I said. “Sure, I guess!” He shrugged. Yessss. “What’s going on?” I said. “Later later, but long story short I’m not the one in your dreams, I was supposed to find and capture you but I refused, and so someone else pretended to be me, and I am an outlaw now. They said-” Just then, someone came rushing out of the brush near to us. “A Figure! Get him!” They said. “Figure hunter! They think I’m one of the bad ones!” Tall Guy shouted. “I’m not, though!” “Figures.” I joked. “Haha, not the time!” He said. He got up, but he winced in pain and I could tell he already used all of his energy. I didn’t know whether to believe him, but time was running out and they were charging at us. I decided to charge back. “Little girl, get out of the way!” They said. “I don’t know what I’m doing, but I’m wild and dangerous so maybe STAY BACK!” I shouted at them. They stopped dead. They looked at Tall Guy. “Got a human on your side, eh? Fine, we’ll stay away for now.” the Hunter said, but he didn’t seem like he wanted to mean it. They walked away in defeat, and I had no IDEA what I just did. “Uhh, what was that about?” I said, looking at Tall Guy. “I think they can’t object humans.” He said. “Wait wait wait, they’re not humans?” I said. “No, they’re Figure hunters, silly!” “I thought that was a group of humans! They look just like humans!” “That’s good, they’re supposed to, to blend in. Not good for Figures like me, obviously, but good for them, I guess.” He said, then sighed. Then suddenly, he got up in alarm. “Oh no, I forgot the other Figures are looking for us!” He said. He flipped around to look straight behind us and so did I…
