In The Swamp

Jake and nick along with their other 2 friends namely; Jomar and Nilmie, made their trip on the swamp that lies at the border of the land and water of coastline shores. They walk barefooted, feels the sand as it touches on their feet while laughing as they walk onto their destination.

"Nick, do you remember what do some says regarding to this place?" said Jake.

"No. What do they probably says?" said Nick.

"According to them, if you're in a place like this be sure you know how to respect other beings who live in this place." said Jake.

"Ha! What a word. Don't believe it. They're just scream your pants off." said Nick while the rest of their friends laugh at Jake.

While they are on their way, a whisper grab Jake's attention.

"Leave... Now..." a whisper in the wind.

"You heard that?" said Jake to Nick.

Nick turned his head and not responded.

"What? What noise are you talking about?" said Jomar.

"I--- I heard a strange voice." said Jake turning his head around.

"Jake, don't mind it..." said Nick.

They continued walking. When they got a few meters away a noise screams them all.

"Creak..." a crashing noise of a tree.

"Hey, is there anybody here?" shouted Nick but no one responded.

"Is there anybody here?" again shouted Nick and still no one responded.

"Are we in trouble Nick?" asked Jomar.

Nick found out that one of their friend, Nilmie, is missing.

"Jake, where's Nelmie?" said Nick.

"I don't know, lately she is behind me." said Jake.

"Nelmie, where are you?" Jake shouted.

"Nelmie... Nelmie... Are you here?" Nick shouted. But still no one answers.

"Nick... Jake... shall we go now?" said Jomar, screaming.

"No we should not go without Nelmie." said Nick.

Jake, Nick and Jomar searched Nilmie and they all surprised, after a moment of searching, to see Nilmie lying, unconscious under a tall tree. They tried to awaken Nilmie and it does.

"Nelmie, are you ok?" said Nick.

"We should go...!" Nilmie said, panicking.

"Sst... Stay calm." said Nick trying to calm Nilmie.

"What happened to you?" said Jomar.

"I don't know... All I remember is a mysterious man... in... in black talked to me and said that we... we disturb him with our noice and he warned us... he warned us that if we don't leave this place, he will put us inside this tree forever. That's all I remember." said Nilmie.

After Nick heard what Nilmie said. Nick slowly raised his body and said:

"Whoever are you, we ask forgiveness for the disturbances we do onto you..." said Nick.

Then a man in black appeared from a distant from them. His eyes glows like a diamonds and his body is like a mixture of human and that of a fairy in black. After a few seconds, the creature disappear with a word spoken in the wind.

"Leave."
