"Hello? Is anyone there?" Logan cried into the darkness. Hearing the same creepy murmurs over and over, she turned around many times in the exact same spot. She tried to figure out what they were saying, but there were too many voices spoke at once, making it impossible. She began having dizzy spells, which caused headaches. She began sobbing as she knelt down and buried her face in her lap.
She felt lost and alone. She prayed the nightmare had ended.
Any light was obscured by tall trees and dense plants. The voices grew quieter one by one until they vanished altogether. She thought it was all over. "Simon says," a voice said softly. Logan quickly looked up and looked around, only to find a strange man with a weird grin on his face. She scrambled from the ground, her gaze fixated on the lean figure. He took a step forward for every step she took back until she was pressed up against a tree. "Simon says," he said again. She stared at him, terrified. "It's all a dream. Just an awful dream. "I'll wake up any minute now," she attempted to persuade herself. The man laughed as Logan tried convincing herself. As he approached, she remained rooted to the ground. "Simon says... bite off your tongue," he hissed into her ear. Her eyes became gray. She then bit the front of her tongue after the command had been given. It landed on soggy, muddy ground. Her clothing was stained with blood as it leaked from her mouth. She collapsed onto her back. The blood had begun to flood her mouth as her head was thrown back. The blood clogged her airway, making it difficult to breathe, and she began choking on her own blood.
The strange man watched Logan fight for air with a hideous smug grin. She shortly stopped struggling, and her body made no sudden move. With no regret, he turned around and left her body to rot.
