It was a cool day just like that day when she heard a rustling noise that was louder than the faint breeze that was blowing through the trees. She wondered what was out in the woods when she decided to go investigate the situation. She began to walk away from her tent when she saw something move in the distance and heard the snap of a fallen tree branch. She continued to see what broke the branch. As she was walking alone in the dark with the moon shining above, she saw something large with hair running past her.

Suddenly everything went dark in the house. When my mom checked the food in the oven, the food had not finished cooking.
