Secrets Among the Pines

The air hung heavy with an aroma of pine needles, a chilling silence broken only by the whispering of leaves. A sense of foreboding settled upon me as I stumbled deeper into the core of the woods.

Each rustle seemed to hold a hidden truth. I had heard tales whispered around campfires, of things that lurked in these woods. Now, standing here, I couldn't help but wonder if they were more than just stories.

Perhaps that I had alone after all? Or was someone watching me from the thickets? The sun began its slow descent, casting fingers of darkness across the forest floor. I started to run for the edge of the woods, the whispers in the trees echoing in my mind long after I had left.
