Sunday Photo Fiction – September 13th 2015

GLOW IN THE DARK

Only a whooshing sound could be heard as the green glowing drop came nearer.

The two runaway teenagers stood as if glued to the ground. It was a fearful noise and sight. Dorothy, the older girl, whispered: “What are we going to do? Run or wait?”

No answer came from the frightened Betty.

They were not supposed to be here. They were warned not to take the route through the forest. But no, they had to run away. Everything was worked out how they would escape the dangers in the wood.

The floating light came nearer and nearer. Both girls grabbed each other, covering their eyes into each other’s shoulders.

Suddenly there was a muffled:”Ouch!” and a crashing noise.

Both girls shrieked and opened their eyes.

“I told you not to go into the woods!” said a familiar voice.

Both girls were relieved to see Amy. She also joined the runaway party!

    A good build-up of tension, Scrapydo. Dark forests are scary places, especially for youngsters who have had their heads filled with creepy tales.

      Dis egter vir baie lekker om weg te hardloop, eerder as om n oplossing te vind.

    What they are running away from must be a lot scarier than what is in the woods if they are willing to brave the woods. Great story

      Amy scared them. I think she was the one telling them to look out for the dangerous wood.

    Hopefully Amy came to rescue them from the dangerous woods rather than running away with them. Great story Scrapydo2! Good tension and mystery with a surprise ending!
