You feel the uneven ground crack and break beneath your feet. The horrible burning smell of this wretched eternal forest fills your nostrils, causing you to cough and sputter. The creatures are not far behind…The Firefighters, as that strange fellow had called them? Well, whatever they are, you sure as hell don’t want them to catch you. Those disgustingly malformed creatures had ripped apart some poor blonde fellow just about three miles back…He had been your companion, at least, up until then…
You inhale sharply, doing your best to ignore the stinging in your throat from all the smoke. “Keep going, kiddo, you’re almost outta their reach” you could practically hear your old mentor’s voice say. He had been strict and tough, but kind nonetheless. You feel some of your confidence return and continue sprinting through the burning woods, ignoring the searing flames licking at your legs and torso.
The creatures are far behind, you can hardly hear them through the crackling of leaves and the shrieking winds. Just keep up the pace, soon you’ll be out of this cursed forest…
