The night sky was pierced with stars that glistened brighter than diamonds. Everything that surrounded them was black. She trailed him through the woods that reeked of rotting leaves and thick, suffocating wood. With every step was the sound of an unforgettable crunch; it was sickening. The ice cold wind slapped her in the face. They kept walking. The eerie silence was almost unbearable as they arrived to the small, broken shed. Cars passed steadily in the distance, he motioned for her to go with him. Broken glass laid scattered among the dead grass. Everything seemed lifeless, the room was lit only by an oil lamp. The jagged walls cut into her back like sharp knives. His cologne mixed with the smell of death;  the slightest sounds made the loudest noise.
He became black with the night, not a word was said. The deafening silence was heavy, nothing felt normal. The door began to creak, he moved to another corner of the shed. His dark, unforgiving eyes watching every move that was made. The wind blew through the trees and whistled through the broken window panes. It was so surreal, this place. It was like a nightmare on earth.
The stars no longer seemed like diamonds, but rather bright sparks; like ones from an exploding fire. It was almost unbelievable that such a happy place during the day could become so evil during the night. Almost like everything that she knew was  perceived different during the night. The moon creeped out behind the endless forest that surrounded them. Off in the distance was the scream of a lone wolf. It was the most terrifying sound that anyone could hear. It echoed through the trees, and the shed, as if not even the daylight could make it stop. The air became suffocating, dampness clung to everything.
She felt the force of the jagged walls closing in, cutting through her body like the blade of a saw. At this point she felt a twinge of regret as black blood trickled down her arm. She realized then that he had been pushing her into the wall so hard that the rigid, wooden walls were cutting into her flesh. She felt helpless and alone; like at any given moment she could die and not care. Salty tears pressed on her lips as if they were drowning her, like the ocean swallowed lone boats in the stormy night. He began to yell in a language that seemed so familiar, but in that moment was completely foreign. She was completely frozen with fear, worse than a nightmare. The shed began to creak and moan, like death had consumed it. The thick air filled the space between them.
The moon seemed to be watching from afar with its face hard as stone. The trees swayed fiercely in the distance as if they were cheering for him. She began to feel the icy heat of the wind as it  stung her again. This place, was not for the good, but rather for the demons that consumed it. Death surrounded them, there was no escape, or so it seemed. Salty tears stung her eyes as she struggled to breathe in the hot, dense air. The blackness consumed her, she was dying. The shed seemed to lull her into an unconscious state. She did not want to be here anymore, she thought of every good place that she had ever been to, every good memory that she had. She clung onto the hope that the glorious sun would soon rise and everything that once lived would become alive again. 
Finally the deadly night disappeared and everything seemed lighter. She ran as fast as her legs would take her. She kept running through the unforgiving forest, through the trees that haunted her. She ran from him, she wouldn’t stop. She wanted to feel freedom, she was not his prisoner anymore, she was finally free. As she neared the highway, she could breathe again. She felt the warm sun beam on her face, she felt weightless. Her horrible nightmare was over, she could finally say, I made it.
