Nightmare in Paradise

Jane was not sure how long she had been running. Time seemed to have evaporated during her sprint. Finally, she paused, and let large, exasperated breaths fall out of her mouth. Her cheeks ere flushed from running, and there was dirt smeared on her face--from when the giant bear had attacked her.

She felt like falling over, but was not sure if she would be able to get up if another creature came to attack her. She turned around, finally. The coast is clear. She smiled to herself--only momentarily--her smile, interrupted by a tiny female voice. "I don't know if this will work."--Jane could not quite make out what the voice had said. It did not sound harmful, but after the attack, she was not willing to find out.

Jane tried to catch her breath. She had just sprinted three straight miles, and--her leg. Her leg. It looked blackened with blood. How much blood had she lost? There was dirt smeared over her scratch, as well. Sharp pins and needles started to pierce her leg. She grabbed at her leg, wanting the pain to stop, but fell in the process. Her hands touching her leg caused a sharp nerve wracking damage to her balance.

She screamed out in pain. This is really painful, she thought to herself. She let out small, tearless cries, breathing quick, deep breaths. She was so tired, and her leg...

Possible starts

I like the idea of the 'Asylum' and 'Orphanage for Unusual Children.'

Just think of animals or plants or whatever, that could exist on this world or already do, then add a slight bit of fantasyExamples:

Fruit that makes you fall asleep when you eat it, after which the cute birdlike things that were singing in its branches come down and slowly bite you to death so the tree can use your body as compost (except that a nearby berry bush has berries that keep you awake, so if you ate those you are fine)

Sabertoothed black panthers that can camouflage so well in the dark that nobody can see them.

Crocodiles who can climb trees

Birds who hypnotize you with their songs

Incredibly soft trees with sappy fruit (they are soft like that because the creatures that sleep against them will defend the tree from some mean herbivore) (I dont know be creative)

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

becase im lazy. what the danger?

According to the map, it depends. My character was being chased by a bear. A monstrous bear, to be a little more accurate.

A little more insight:

Nah theyre at the border of the dangerous part. They just have to get away from there.Besides the other areas have dangerous animals as well, and poisonous plants, and fumes, and strange water that becomes poisonous because of the plants growing in them upstream... You name it

^That should explain some dangerous atrocities your character may find^

It is okay ~ Hopefully, we will start tonight and all will be well.

Nightmare in Paradise

Jane continued running, her feet hurt, the smell of the creature gradually became thicker and thicker, Oh, God, this is it... Part of her wanted to break down and cry, but the other part of her knew better... And the stench was so heavy and the rumbling was so monstrous. The air around her became harder to breathe as she started to lose distance between herself and the animal. It had only been a six minute run, yet she may have travelled a mile, yet. Her legs were wearing out and becoming heavy and tired.

She dare not turn around to see how close the foul beast was behind her...

But she did not have to turn around, for it had finally lunged on top of her. Her right leg felt a sharp pain, almost a sensational pain quiver quickly through her body. She screamed in horror, the echo of her voice vibrated through the forest. Hit its nose, hit is nose!. Jane twisted her body, as she had fallen flat onto her stomach, scraping the bottom of her chin, and sinking her teeth into the tip of her tongue. She made one swat that miffed the bear-like creature's nose. If any damage was done, it stalled the beast from piercing her stomach with its mouth...

... Before another forest animal came charging. It had similar attributes, large, fury, ferocious and the stench, that same disgusting stench. The closer this creature approached, the fouler and more polluted the air began to smell. Without hesitation, Jane stopped screaming and vomited on the creature, right before it was attacked by the other forest animal. Jane was flung aside, her body hit a tree, but strangely enough, the tree was soft, soft and comforting. Jane immediately picked her body up, feeling needles pierce through her leg as she tried to get away. Blood dropped from her leg.

Curse words began flying through her head, and then prayers. Lord, have mercy. Kyrie eleison. Lord have mercy. Kyrie eleison... And then more cursing followed her horrible attempt at praying through the pain. She looked down at her sock, it was turning red. Jane turned and vomited one more time. It was nothing but yellow vile. She took deep breaths, forgetting she was in some foreign land. Flight or fight started pumping more adrenalin through her, she took several steps and started running again.

Every step was a new pain, but she did not dare stop. She felt like Dori from Finding Nemo. She thought to herself, Just keep running. Just keep running. Occasionally, she would slip in a Lord have mercy, but she mostly found herself continually forgetting she was not her natural habitat...

The wind combed through her hair and licked the blood from her wound. The trees opened up paths for her to run. And her feet started finding the socks to be nothing but hindrances, soggy and slowing her down. She wished she could quickly take them off and let her feet feel the ground. This boost of energy would not last long, Find shelter, Jane, find shelter.

I know I am the one who said she wanted to wait, but this idea is starting to sound better. Lol.

Sure, I'm all open for any finding of him right now :P (save him!)That Bearlike creature that Jane found probably wasnt the only creature around...

Great, perfect. I knew I should have stuck with the West Coast. West Coast is Best Coast. What was I thinking putting her in the East?

The Demon Within

"I tried killing myself," James spoke up. This was not a proud moment for him, but the truth. He was not much of a romantic, unless it came to his sister... The truth over beauty, he was a Biology major, after all, "According to my calculations, I--I..." He paused, hesitating, imaging his sister's world with him dead. It didn't matter, he had been replaced by some--, "I should have died, but... miraculously I did not. The doctors think it was a miracle. I... I happen to think it was a curse." He scoffed, realizing he had said too much already. No, he said to himself, any information about this situation was vital.

He looked away, annoyed with himself. Obviously, he was the weakest link. He coward a bit, the voice daunting him for having been the cowardice of the group. Defeat was chewing his brain, like a worm inside of an apple, just munching away, chatting and munching.
