In the Woods—2

In the woods 2

Rory isn't sorta a cry baby but this feelings just continues and it's freaking him out. Everywhere he goes just felt like he's being watched. He had never believed in powers existing in this world but it sure does in a way as Veroz scientist would prove to them. Now facing the woods, he gulped and walked towards it. He took a step first on the scrambled leaves on the ground, the wind whistling every where they went. Just like that, the same feeling came. Looking back, he saw no one..he just ad to walk fast in order to get his movements quick. Rory moved to the wood going deeper now. Just like he remembered, this wood was the first place he had those strange feelings of someone watching him, now he is in that same place.

This place might be tricky. Although, it was mentioned that there's nothing wild here at this woods, Rory still felt this like something wild wanted him as his dinner or something. Urghh....what a lame self. He has construction to blame. The road was bad for two weeks now and they have to repair it now, why now! He is facing the woods because of those damn people and damn thing. Cursed them!

Rory walked further with the sound of dry leaves evolving as he walked right on them. It's been only 3 minutes in the woods, nothing strange has happened for now, great. So he just wants everything to be like this. The wind kept scaring him. Is it the wind or someone?

Just then, Rory began hearing some leaves scrambling and giving out a sound. Someone was there, that was sure. His heartbeat began growing enormously. He stood still stiil hearing what he heard beifr but louder now. The sound is coming near and near and near,Rory was about to run but what he saw just made him stay.

"Mr Kelvin what are you doing out here?' Rory asked after giving a sigh in his low breath.

"Oh Rory, sorry did I scare you?"

Rory wanted to ignore the question because yeah, he was scared. "Oh no sir, I was just um.."

"What are you doing here anyways? All in the woods by yourself?"

"Not that. I have to get to a friend's house and the only route available now is the woods. The main street is on renovation"

"Uh, well be careful boy. The woods is not very nice by this time"

"Yeah, I am just minutes away."

"Be careful Rory. Bye and oh, your shoes are untied"

Rory gazed at his untied shoes. Mr Kelvin left him with his journey and Rory all by himself. He knelt on a knee fixing his shoes up to the best place of where it was before. "That should do it". Rory was done and now averting his gaze to his normal posture. His face collided with another face and then he scrambled back in fear. He looked around and couldn't see what that was. Right there, the feelings started. That face, that face, he saw that face...he couldn't describe that face but it brings all of fears to him. The wind grew stronger and the trees danced to the tune of the winds giving a whooshing kind of sound. There was just one thing ringing in Rory's brain...."RUN"

He picked himself up and ran through the rest of the journey not caring if he gets tired it not. All he cared was about leaving the woods just quickly. The journey of 25 minutes ended in 15 minutes. Finally, Rory entered the main street now panting. He began walking backward facing the woods

"I saw something, or someone....who was that?... I'm not going crazy am I? No I am not...it's a good thing...it's not a good thing to fear...urghhh...am going crazy"

Suddenly he felt someone's hands slowly coming up in his shoulders. He didn't even bother looking but insert a punch on the person's face at instant.

"Dude what's your stress?" O'Neil asked holding his bleeding nose.
