Something in the woods....a Short story by Megan Flores.
It Was October 31st, 11:20 P:M...... Halloween night.
All the little trick or treaters had made there rounds and were all snuggled up in there house injecting themselves with sugary sweets and chocolate covered
delights....
Meanwhile, down at the local city forest-park, a beautiful young couple walks slowly, holding hands on the sidewalk, under the moonlight. The Women was a slender, Red-head with enchanting eyes and lucious lips. The Male was a tall, scruffy, but ruggedly handsome gentleman. As the night grew darker, and Midnight approached, the care-free couple decides to find a bench to sit on in the park. They find a bench, and sit there snuggled up in there thick jackets, and look up at the star's. The Women say's "Tonight has been absolutley incredible babe, everything has been perfect!" as she leans in and gives him a deep, passionate kiss on the lips. The man say's "Well I'm just glad I'm with you, regardless if tonight was good or bad".They lean and start passionately French-kissing, embracing eachother's warm bodies on this cold Halloween night.
In the midst of the romantic snogging between the lovely couple, in the distance...In the shadow's...Something was lurking. Behind the trees and behind the bushes, something was watching them. The couple is still kissing when they hear a loud tree branch snap in the distance, this startles the women and she say's "What the hell was that?". The Man replies "It's probably just some animal walking around, just forget about it. She complies and hey go right back to the kissing. Meanwhile, whatever this thing was that was watching the young couple...was moving closer, it's breathing was becoming heavier, and the air around them was getting colder. The Women proclaims "Baby, It's getting cold out here, maybe we should just go home?". The Man replies "Home? oh come on, it is beautiful out here! Don't tell me your afraid. "Oh of course not! I just think it's getting late, that's all". The Man replies "Ugh...Ok ok, we can go home"
They go to grab there bags when all of a sudden they hear a Blood-curdling yell coming from behind the trees. The women grab's hold of the man and scream's "What the fuck is that!?" The man replies "Um, oh I'm sure it was just a dog-" then he get's cutt off by another, but this time LOUDER yell that sounded a lot closer then the previous one.
"Who's there!?" the man demands, "Show yourself!". All of a sudden they see a very dark shadowy figure start to emerge from the tree branches, the women is quivering in fear as the man holds her tight. The dark figure start's to come closer, it's still too dark to make out what it is exactly. The man places the women behind him in order to protect her, and yell's in a commanding voice "You stay back! I'm warning you!".
All of a sudden, the figure walk's under the street light and it's true form is revealed.....
A Fat, drunk, homeless man emerges under the street-light and say's in a loud and slurring voice "Hey Kids! You want some "Home-made" Chocolate!?!?!"
Happy Halloween everyone ;)
