She didn’t know what to do, where to go or how to get back. The girl only knew (or so she thought) that whatever happened, she would be OK, but she was wrong. Out of nowhere, the same person who she was asking the name of, had appeared. He was even taller than before, but looking younger and more polite than before. The man never spoke at all, and he definitely never smiled. It took a while to figure out she was tied up, it also took a while to realise that it wasn’t dark, for she was in shock.
Finally, she loosened herself ad headed for the door, but, to her surprise, the door was locked, and she couldn’t get out. She was trapped. Frantically smashing on the door, she heard footsteps coming her way. They were slow, so she smashed even faster until she was exhausted of all her energy. The footsteps were getting faster also, so she had no choice, and used the remaining of her strength and kicked the door down and ran off.
Running for dear life, the girl headed the right way back home. She thought she was safe, little did she know that she was being followed…
Back at the village, everyone had long forgotten the girl, most people had just moved on. It was only a year later, when they were woken up by a certain noise, that they remembered her. The same ogre like man came stomping so hard on the floor that tiles came up from the floor. This time they had had enough. Pitch forks in hands, they raced out of their houses, chased the man back into the forest. Soon after, rustling came yet again from the same forest. But instead of the same old, annoying, ugly to the core old man, came a nice girl. The same one that had been gone for almost 2 years now, had come back.
It had been a month since she had come back and as expected, every man still wanted her hand in marriage. She just couldn’t take it anymore, and said that whoever wins the dance contest coming up, will not only get the prize money, but also will get her hand in marriage. The date was settled, and the dance was to be held on the next day. They all thought that it was going to go well, but she wasn’t the only one that had made a comeback.She was all by herself, waiting for the contest to finish, then she could finally meet her match. Everyone would think she would be OK, but they were wrong
The day of the contest was finally here and all the men (most of them at least) were practising for the big day. The same rustling in the bushes reminded none of them what was coming next, they were too caught up in what they were doing to realise it. The dance was down to its final minutes before it was announced who it was, but it was too late to warn anyone now. Out of nowhere, came the same, ugly to the core creature who had terrorized the place for years. The girl was on stage, ready to get married finally, the monster of a man wouldn’t have it. He snatched her out of human reach and traveled into the forest…
