The Dark Shadow

I was walking through the woods. I had heard lots of stories about the woods but they weren't scaring me a bit. Suddenly I saw something rush past me. Now I was getting scared. I could hear the trees creaking in the wind, I saw a dark shadow in front of me. I felt a cold wind and then the dark shadow was gone. 

That night I could not sleep a wink, all I could think about was the dark shadow.

The next morning I went back to the woods. Something was different, where were the trees and the plants? Then I saw the shadow it was getting closer and closer.  From nowhere it talked to me, "Hey you."


All this time the dark shadow was just my science teacher getting stuff for school.
