The Forest. I jump in to the bush to my right. I creep forward and come up behind him. I quickly slip my arm around his neck and pull tightly. I fell him go limp in my arms

As my feet pound on the rough stony ground, my breathing sounds in my ears. I stop to have a drink, I notice a bench up ahead and I jog up to it. As I look at it I notice its rough features. Flecks of mould are growing over the planks. Rust forming on the nails. Bits of concrete crumpling away. I sit down and take in the view. I look out and see an eagle circling above the valley below. I wait for a few minutes and then continue on my run. I start to head back home. I decide to go through the woods as it’s quicker. I jog forward, I then start to feel strange as if some one is following me I subtly look back I don’t see any one but I still feel weird. I push on and reach the other side.

 I jog up to my apartment block and take the stairs three at a time. I arrive at my apartment and put my key in the door, I stop am I paranoid or is their some one following me. I look round I don’t see any one so I unlock the door and step inside. I pick up my mail but I notice a brown letter, I pick it up and open it. Inside there is a letter, I read it and my mouth drops open. The letter was from my uncle in Scotland.

Dear Alex

Your mother didn’t want me to tell you this but now you’re at that age I think it’s necessary for you to know.

I found a letter from your mum. It says on it what she was going to do on the day she disappeared. I need to speak to you face to face. Meet me at the seven sisters’ on Wednesday 13th 6 o’clock.

Join now!

From your uncle

John.

I was shocked! Why hadn’t my mum wanted me to read it and why hadn’t my uncle told me sooner. I suddenly realised it was the 13th today I quickly looked at my watch and saw it was 4pm. I quickly got in the shower and changed my clothes. I then quickly grab my keys and stepped out into the hall. I stopped I got that feeling again. I tell myself to stop being paranoid and lock the door.

I go down to the car park and unlock my BMW ...
