The scent of smoke and blood chased after Samantha as she fled through the woods. Behind her, she could hear people screaming in terror. She wanted badly to go and help, but knew that she'd only get herself killed. The best she could do was to reach the other village.
Someone was chasing her! She looked over her shoulder as her feet sped across the grass. The monster on the horse had a strange, misshapen head that looked like a skull. The horse's eyes glowed blood-red as it bore down upon her. She screamed in horror. The attacker seemed to be more than merely human. A demon!
She tripped on the grass, sliding down a hill as the demon horse breathed upon her neck. She had to get up. She had to run.
She stumbled to her feet desperately. The demon horse and the monster who rode it followed closely. She knew that it would overwhelm her at any moment, and she would die.
Tears coursed down her cheeks as she ran as fast as she could through the woods, certain despite all her efforts that she would die horribly.
A dense fog loomed before her. She didn't want to go in there! There would be more monsters! But then she might be able to lose the monster that so persistently followed her. She ran into the fog with the desperate hope that whatever lurked in there would leave her alone.
Red eyes glowed all around her. Dark, terrible shapes moved through the fog around her. She'd been wrong! This was worse than the lone rider! She had to get out of here!
Her hand touched the bark of a tree. She stared at her palm, which was wet and sticky. Blood...oh god! She screamed.
Through a thick haze in her mind, she heard a sweet, gentle voice whisper her name frantically. "Samantha, please honey. Wake up. You're safe now."
