Ever since Wester told me his story, I’ve been having a hard time grasping that. I don’t know what it is, but I feel like not all of his tale was true. Something about it felt wrong. Some of the things I’ve seen don’t seem very scientific. Wait a minute. Was Wester lying to me? Now that I think about it, his explanation doesn’t seem like the most logical. Well, I’m not going to throw him under the bus yet. I’m not even here to question his judgement now. I’m here because I have a new story to tell.
First of all, I would like to say that there is some relatively good news. Ivers was able to call off the state of emergency. The scarecrows, or Watchers as I called them, have seemed to have just disappeared. Hopefully, we’ll get some food and clean water soon. However, something strange has been going on. Over the past few days, five people went missing into the woods. Specifically, these people were all men about my age.
I knew it was more than like the Squealer up to its tricks. However, one of the deputies told me he was almost lured into the woods by a beautiful woman. Those were his words, not mine. He said he was on patrol, and he heard this angelic voice calling him from the woods. He said he saw a beautiful woman standing at the tree line. She was signaling him to follow her. He said he was almost tempted to do it, thinking he was probably about to get laid. As he made his way closer to the tree line, he felt the feeling of danger. He quickly turned back and got the hell out of there.
Naturally, I thought that this was either a crazed woman in the woods or one of Squealer’s helpers. At this point, one of those options is more likely than the other. Because I don’t care about my life, I went to the location where the deputy had seen the woman. I decided I would stake out the location for any strange activity. I can’t believe one of our own deputies nearly put his life on the life for a possible peep show. People don’t just hang out in the woods offering sex to the first person they see. Do they?
I’d been sitting in this same location for two hours, and I’d still come across nothing. There was no beautiful woman trying to lure me. I’m not saying that’s a good thing, but that’s why I’m out here. About 45 minutes later, I started hearing something. It was the sweet sound of an angelic voice laughing and humming. It sounded like it was coming in every direction of me. The voice was so beautiful. I felt I was being put in some sort of trance. I managed to regain my bearings to see a woman at the tree line.
The deputy was right. This woman wasn’t just beautiful. She was drop-dead gorgeous. She wore a plain white summer dress. Her skin was the perfect shade of tan. Her hair was blonde and silky. This looked like one of those models you would see in a hair commercial, except this woman looked far more amazing than any model. The wind blew on her, making her looking like an absolute angel in the breeze.
She had her beautiful blue eyes right on me. She signaled for me to come to her. As much as I wanted to, I couldn’t. I knew this was a death sentence. She was luring me in those woods for bad reasons. However, something was wrong with me. Even though my brain was resisting, my legs proceeded towards her. I had no control of my body. I grabbed my legs trying to stop them. At this point, I was halfway towards the woman. She sang and danced in the breeze as I got closer.
I was now just a few feet from her. She held her hands out ready to embrace me. My legs were still moving towards her. That’s when I noticed something wrong. The woman began to smile, but her smile was not normal. She opened her mouth to reveal rows of sharp, jagged teeth. Even worse, her mouth didn’t open just horizontally. I also open vertically. To make it clear, her whole mouth was a huge cross that ran across her face.
You wouldn’t be able to notice it from far back, but up close, it was grossly apparent. She opened her mouth to a point that I could no longer see her once beautiful face. All I could see were the shark-like teeth and convulsing tongues ready to dine into my flesh. Seeing this broke my trance, I regain control of my legs. I ran as fast as I could back to my car. The woman chased after me. She was fast. She was really fast. Somehow, she was able to keep up to speed with my car. I was going 50 mph, yet she was running parallel to my vehicle.
After about a mile of chasing, she gave up and darted into the woods. I was almost eaten by the most attractive monster ever. It’s best I not tell anyone about it. I made it home, locked my door, and looked out the window for a good 30 minutes. I wanted to be sure she didn’t follow me. Luckily, nothing came about. Well, I guess that’s another monster to the document.
1. The Squealer
2. Ice Cream Man
3. The Deer
4. Waterworks
5. The Watchers
6. Princess
I think I’ll call this one Princess. Judge me if you want, but if you didn’t see her. If my wife were here, she would be absolutely pissed. This is why I don’t believe Wester. Some of these creatures don’t seem like they have anything to do with science experiments. I know he told me the Squealer made these creatures, but they can do things that I don’t even think the Squealer can do. I mean, I was nearly eaten yesterday.
At any point, I would be happy to wake up and this all be a dream. I want to leave, but I’m afraid. I wish I could just get in my car and drive as far away as possible, but I can’t. I’m afraid that if I leave this town, it will follow me. Considering how many things it has sent after me, there’s no doubt it wants me, but why? What does it want me for?
