Indigo And Ezra: Lost In The Woods (Book 1)

Ch 2: "The Horned Beast"

The Sun Begun To Rise As Every Creature Woke Up But Ezra And Indigo Were Still Asleep, Suddenly A Howl Was Heard As It Startled Both Of Them. "What Was That? Is It The Monster From Yesterday?" Indigo Asked, She Looked Around With No Sign Of Creature In Sight.
"Well It Isn't Coming...Come On We Can't Stay Here We Have To Go." He Lift Indigo Up And They Looked At The Fire Now No Longer Burning The Sticks Still Were There Burned And Laying On The Ground. Indigo And Ezra Decided To Take Some Of The Sticks And They Headed Off On Their Next Destination For Signs..
The Forest Was Brighter, The Leaves Are Green And No Creature Was Nowhere Indigo Looked Around The Woods In Curiosity While Ezra Kept His Head High For Any Sign Of Danger. "You Know It Doesn't Be Any Monster Around Here."
Indigo Walked To Catch Up To Ezra Who Was Still Focusing, "Well There Are Animals Can Take Us Any Day But Hey I'll Keep You Safe Okay I Am Your Twin Brother After All." Indigo Couldn't Help But Smile. "Yes You Are My Dear Bro." Both Of Them Continued To Walk Until A Sound Of Sound Of An Loud Footstep Caught Their Attention And Stopped Their Tracks. "What's That Is Something There?" Their Faces Went White As They Turned Around To An Tall Figure Of An Appearance Of An Demonic Creature With Horns On The Top Of The Head, It Wore An Black Cape With Skeleton Legs As It Walked Toward The Children. "Run!" Ezra Shouted Grabbing Indigo By The Hand And Running Away From The Creature Who Started With Black Dull Eyes Who Ran After Them. They Ran Through The Forest Faster Before, As Indigo Turned To See The Beast Behind Them "This Way Hurry!" Ezra And Indigo Head Toward A Tree With A Giant Hole, They Got In The Hold And Stayed There For 1 Minute With No Sight Of The Beast. "It Looks He's Looking For Something Where Is He Going?" He Looked Around And Saw No Sign Of The Monster, The Tree That They Were Under In Was Cramped With Smalls Spaces. Their Heads Hit The Celling As They Walked On Their Hands, The Dirt Covered The Clothes Along The Hole Getting Deeper And A Bright Light Shining In The Abyss Of The Hole. They Walked Toward Slowly Making Their Way To The Hole And They Fell Into It Their Screams Echoed As They Landed Roughly On The Ground. Their Arms And Legs Were Covered In Dirt And Cuts On Their Skin, They Struggled To Stand Up And Looked Around. A Few Green Lights Were Shining Only A Tiny Bit, Ezra Spoke First. "Where Are We? Okay We Need To Find A Way To Get Out Of This Place Besides We're Already Dirty." The Two Looked Around The Environment, It Was All Dirty And A Few Green Moss Were Scared As They Walked Through. Than A Sound Of Footsteps Made Ezra To Snap His Head Around, His Voice Stayed Firm Despite The Cold Making His Body Shaking. "Who's There? Come Out Now." Silence Reigned For A Minute Until A Tiny Figure Covered In Green Leaves Fell From The Above. It Stood Up As Indigo And Ezra's Face Were Strained With Fear And Confusion, The Creature Looked At Him With Glowing Green Eyes And Open Its Mouth.
"Who Are You? What Are You? What Are You Doing Here?" The Creature Asked In An Whisper. It Moved Closer While The Both Of Them Were Backing Away, "What Is Your Name? Humans?" Ezra And Indigo Stopped In Their Tracks And Calm Themselves Down. "Hi My Name Is Ezra And This Is Indigo We Are Twins In Case You Didn't Know." The Creature Spoke While Trying To Stand Up. "Siblings How Nice.." Its Limbs Made Snapping Noises That Made The Both Of Them Uncomfortable. The Creature Stood Up And Smiled At Them, "You Can Call Me Aspen, This Tree Is My Birth Place But There's To It." The Creature Walked Pass The Two As It Pointed A Finger To An Huge Hole. The Two Were Confused Until They Looked Deeper And Decided To Follow Aspen Into The Hole. The Hole Became Deeper And Deeper As They Traveled Through Until They Landed On A Safe Ground With Glass. Indigo Noticed A Yellow Glow On The Celling, They Moved Closer To The Glimmering Light Until A Loud Noise Echoed And Made Them Look Back. The Celling Cracked As The Beast Moved Its Head To Turn Around Snapping Its Neck, The Three Ran Faster Through The Holes Until Aspen Grabbed The Two And Jumped Into A Bigger Hole. They Fell Long Enough To Be Landed, Aspen Checked For Their Scars, Their Cuts Were Bleeding Through Their Sheaves. "Okay Let's Find Somewhere Else To Heal You Two Up.." Aspen Grabbed The Both Of Them Gently Than Due To Their Tiredness They Fell Asleep While Aspen Ran To Another Hole As The Beast's Voice Echoed Through The Tree..
