This is the first instalment of my *hopefull* series about Kirou, a girl from Cornwall (or Bodmin Moor, technically).

Anyway, on with the story. All comments and feedback welcome.

 

 

 

 

I can see him. I can smell him. I can taste him.

He was running ahead of me. He always does. Whenever I get close he just speeds up. I hate it.

But something was wrong. He was slowing down. He was turning around. He was actually looking for me.

Then he saw me. For the first time he actually saw me. And then he screamed. And then he started running. Like he’d never ran before. This time I was running. And he could see me…

 

My name is Kirou, and this is my story.

 

It all started 4 years ago. I was only 17. I was walking my dog up on the moors by my house, nothing unusual, I always walk her up there. This time was different though, very different. I was on my way back home from doing the usual rounds. Molly was running ahead of me making as much noise as possible, as she usually does. I was throwing sticks for her, as I usually do. Suddenly all the noises that I didn’t notice I was hearing, the birds, the insects, even Molly, stopped. I carried on walking for a few paces, before I stopped and started calling for Molly. She didn’t answer. It was deathly quiet, and I was starting to get scared. I started running home, and I mean running. I had never run this fast in my entire life. Something was chasing me, I was sure of it. It was crashing through the bushes behind me, slowly gaining on me. I was never going to make it home before it caught me. So I turned around, and looked for it. And then it started to run away. And then I saw it…

 

My name is Kirou, and that was my story.
