“Aw yoo wost too?” she asked. He searched for the source, unable to see anything in the misty darkness.
“Wh-who are you?” His voice trembled, reverberating through the forest. Suddenly, whispers echoed, filling his ears with their secrets. “Leave me alone!” he screamed and ran blindly, attempting to get the voices away from him. But something blocked his way: a translucent, glowing little girl.
