The Forbidden Forest
Chapter 4
It was dark inside the forest; the trees were so dense, I couldn't understand how anything could live in here. I looked down. There was a dirt path, so I decided to follow it.
"Hello?" I called out, "Is anyone there?" Not that I expected to get a response. Instead... silence. "Lumos," I uttered, and a tiny light appeared. I wandered on, holding my wand out, should I need to defend myself.
About an hour later, I was getting tired. Then I heard a call. Not a human call, one from an animal. And they were in danger! I started to run towards the sound. The vines and the branches were crashing through my face, covering so much that I couldn't see. I tripped, and my whole world went black.
