Him (Practice Introduction)


Authors Note: This is a practice introduction to show descriptive detail. I also tried to use personification, and I tried to be really descriptive and show emotion in the piece.

The lightning cackles above me. The drops of rain run off the  leaves and splat in the mud. It’s so loud I don’t know if I hear him or not. “CRACK” the branches scream at me. I hear a scream and snap my neck around. There, through the trees I can see his silhouette. His gaze burns my pupils. He falls to his knees and starts to twitch. I frown as my feet start taking steps. I look down my feet are just walking, I turn and grab a nearby tree. My fingers one by one peel off the dripping branches. I have lost control of my body. I fight my body but I know  it's useless. Now only feet from him he stands slowly and looks me straight in the eye. He doesn't have to say anything I know what’s in store for me.
