I packed up everything I needed to last 1 week in the outside world. I left throw the back door and ran into the woods. I was alone at night in the dark woods full of wolves and bears. I've never been inside the woods but I know that there are a lot of caves that I can stay in. Somehow I saw everything in the woods well. I also saw my house burn from miles away. I'm running as fast as I am hearing everyone screaming "die!" I can't believe that they would do this but what else should I expect from people who are scared. Out of nowwhere it started to rain. I still kept running not letting the rain bother me. I saw a cave up ahead that looked safe. It was far away from the village and my house. I went inside the cave and I saw a bunch of leaves ready like a bed and fruit inside the cave. I knew it was a trap but I didn't have time to run. It was almost day time and it was raining to much. That cave was the only safe place. Even though I'm only 16 years old I can survive in these woods. I ate some of the fruit and laid down in the leaves it only took me a few minutes to fall asleep. Those leaves where so comfortable. Morning came in a few hours and the sun woke me up. The sun was so bright but beautiful. When I woke up I saw a boy with a little girl. The boy looked like he was around my age. The boy was sitting there awake looking at me and the girl was asleep on his lap. I standed up the moment I saw him. The boy smiled and looked at me. He didn't look scared to see me but I couldn't just trust him out of nowhere. The girl woke up and hugged me. "I gave you the hug you needed." the girl said laughing. I think these people are crazy. The boy looked at me and walked up to me. He got close to my face and kissed me on the lips out of nowhere...
