The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window.A white pale Lizard sitting on the window pane ran to hide in the dark again. I can't find her anywhere. I run into the woods , crushing the dry twigs and leaves.....my heart pounding . Only thing I can see is the faint light coming from the cabin.I advance towards the light more worried about her than scared of these dark woods. I scour the area, I run into a fallen stump and trip, slumping the ground.

Getting up, it felt like I have been here before . Panic built inside me...the cabin called me more than ever....the urge was sudden...the urge was familiar....i felt a connection...I tripped over something again.....it felt like a soft toy....i bent down to pick it up...it is hers...i felt a relief but something suffocated inside me...it felt like a terrible knot in my tummy......i heard words coming out of my mouth....”Are you in there?!" ....pressing my ear to the door...i cried.....i can't go on...then I heard her muffled cries. I start pushing the door but realize it's taking too long.I am in the cabin. I saw her sitting on the bed...she is looking down....her thick black hair covering her face...she is wearing her favourite yellow dress.....she is sad...the sadness is sticking to her like it is an integral part of her...it kind of fused into the cabin too.... I can tell she is hurt....like deeply hurt..it looked like she has imposed a self isolation on herself.....my soul tormented in agony....I reached out to her wanted to help her....but she disappears...not again...she ran away again....she is hiding somewhere I can't find her....

I run around the cabin to find any other doors or windows...the candle light in the cabin is the only light.....dont know why we are in the dark.....this is becoming too cruel and weird......i am Still Looking for her.....I reached the back of the cabin...I feel freshly tilled earth under my feet. I hear a painful shriek....it felt it came from inside of the cabin...the voices echoed everywhere...in the woods...under the ground where I stood....the shriek was followed by cries...painful whimpers.... then everything became quiet again....i did not know what to do......i am tired of this hide and seek....i am exhausted because of all the turmoil.....I know a child was sexually abused many times here....the child had lived in humilation, fear and shame for good part of her life.

I fell on my knees.....sudden wind blew on my face and pushed me down.I started frantically digging with my hands...very soon I hit something hard. I opened the box...found her...bound in what looked like white sheets...She stares back at me, eyes wide......I sigh with relief. Thank God. But wait...what is that red spot on her dress....it looked like blood......Her face is not normal.....why she is pasty white....why her eyes are peering like this...why she looks like me.....i was hit by rage and vengeance ..it burnt my insides...

I wanted to run away from everything.....but can I......Am I trapped in this horror for ever.....I don't know why I abandoned her in the first place. Despite of my fears, I am running in the woods again.I can't find her anywhere. I run into the woods , crushing the dry twigs and leaves.....my heart pounding . Only thing I can see is the faint light coming from the cabin.I advance towards the light more worried about her than scared of these dark woods. I scour the area, I run into a fallen stump and trip, slumping the ground. Getting up, it felt like I have been here before.

    I really liked the writing style - definitely lended itself to creating an in-the-moment feel and kept the anxiety/suspense up til the end.
