Run run run by Dutch Melrose

sarah's pov,

The only thing that came to mind was the woods. I sprinted towards the dense forest, my heart pounding in my chest. The trees seemed to whisper warnings as I disappeared into the darkness, hoping to lose him in the shadows.

I could still hear him counting.

"Three!" he shouted, and I could feel his smirk.

The dried leaves crunched beneath my feet as I ran, the sound echoing through the trees. The fear of being caught pushed me to run faster, my breaths coming in short gasps. I prayed that the cover of the woods would be enough to keep me safe from his clutches.

I looked back; he's not there.

But suddenly I felt a sting of pain on my feet , causing me to stumble and fall to the ground. The sharp pain shot through my body, making it difficult to stand back up and continue running.

"damnit"

I lifted my left foot to see a few pieces of glass stabbed in my skin. I gritted my teeth and quickly pulled a few of them out, wincing at the sharp sensation. Blood trickled down my ankle, leaving a trail behind me as I forced myself to keep moving. With each step, the fear weighed heavy on my chest, driving me forward through the tangled maze of trees. I couldn't let him catch me.

I hid behind a giant tree when I heard the rustling of leaves behind me. My heart raced as I held my breath, praying he wouldn't find me. The sound grew closer.

"Sarah!" he shouted sarcastically , his voice echoing through the forest. I closed my eyes, trying to remain as still as possible, hoping he would give up and leave me alone.

"I know you are here." I could feel the panic rising in my throat as his footsteps drew nearer. The branches above me rustled. But I kept quiet. The stabbing pain on my foot and me being breathless, exhausted from running for what felt like hours, made it difficult to stay hidden. I knew I had to find a way to escape before he caught me.

"You want to play hide and seek?" I heard him chuckle, his voice now closer than ever.

"no?"

"But I'd love to."

"Either you give up, or if I find you..." "Let's just say it won't end well for you," he threatened, sending a chill down my spine. Should I stay hidden and risk being caught, or make a run for it and hope for the best?

I put my hands on my mouth to stop wincing. My heart was thumping so loudly. I hope he doesn't hear it.

Something clicked in my mind. A rock I looked back and hide behind the tree, searching for him with my eyes wide open. And I saw him, he was searching for me. I carefully targeted the rock on the opposite direction and threw it, creating a distraction. I took advantage and ran towards the other tree and hide behind the tree trunk.

As I peaked out from behind the tree trunk, he was nowhere to be found. I waited in silence, trying to control my breathing. After a few moments, I cautiously peeked out again, but there was no trace of him. Where is he? It was complete silence; there was no rustling of leaves. I decided to slowly make my way towards the next tree, keeping a close eye on my surroundings. My footsteps made it way backwards, fixed around the forest, searching for any movement.

Suddenly my back hit something hard, and I stumbled forward, turning around quickly to see what it was. I hope it was just a tree. But my bad luck. there he was, standing right behind me with a mischievous grin on his face.
