My mother and I had just moved into our new house a week ago. She just got a new job at an accounting firm, better benefits and salary. Which meant an actual house and not the apartment we moved into after my Dad passed away?
I met a shy and petite girl a few days after and became quick friends; at least I won’t be alone the first day at school. The classes were boring as usual, until history class, when i felt it, the feeling of being watched. Turning my head to the side I saw a guy staring at me. He seemed odd, he had ratted black hair with pale white skin. I grew scared looking at him. Turning back I saw him smile a crooked smile.
That night I couldn’t sleep, all I saw was his lifeless eyes.
I was running through the woods in a white nightgown. I don't know what it was, but something was chasing me. Finally I saw a cabin in a clearing, and ran for it. I only took a few strides, when a heavy weight tackled me to the ground. Petrified, I looked up to see a monster glaring down at me. It seemed to have fur covering its body, with blood red eyes and two inch claws. Claws, that came straight for my face as I woke screaming in cold sweat.
The next day at school I found that five students were killed in the woods. The police said it was an animal attack.
I've been here for a month and had the same dream every night, sometimes I'm running and other times I'm looking for something, but it always ends the same, killed my the red eyed monster.
One night i decided to find out what it all meant, I know my dream means something. My Mom always told me to listen to my dreams, probably the worst advice she could give me. Walking through the woods looking for any familiar signs, I came across an oak tree I saw in my dream. Walking the familiar path towards the cabin I felt it, the feeling of being watched. Turning the doorknob, I found it to be locked. Walking around the house, I didn't find a way in, so I broke one of the windows. The cabin was empty inside, with only a bed and a brown box. Before I could look inside it, the door opened. Scared, I hid under the bed. Heavy foot falls was all I heard, before I saw muddy, black combat boots stopping at the edge of the bed. Suddenly I was ripped from under the bed seeing cold lifeless eyes turn red.
