Username: SilentMelody || Name: Tanda ("seer of life and death") || Gender: female

Tanda is a ghost, but she doesn't realize that. She's spent her undead years afraid of ghosts chasing after her and believing that she's haunted. The only true thing she's running from is the reflections and hallucinations of herself. She runs after the living and cries for help. None of them wish to do anything but leave. She's searching for an escape from her unknown and misguided afterlife.

---

Pounding heart, pounding feet. I'm dizzy, but I can't stop running. This is a chance at freedom. "You have to help me," I wail. "Please help me!" The other runs screaming, and I'm left alone. Again... Although not completely alone.

I whip my head this way and that, frantically searching for the ghost that was chasing after me. Wisps of white and gray appear in the corners of my vision, and I scream. "Where are you?! Please, show yourself! Don't do this!!" The other presence doesn't show for a moment, and I'm the only one left in the dark wondering anxiously. Suddenly a faint silhouette against the treeline appears again, flickering softly with dark purple skin and blue eyes. It began taking small steps towards me before picking up its pace and breaking into a sprint.

Holding my head in my hands and shaking, I continue to run through the forest. "Don't hurt me! Don't kill me!!" I had almost gotten away, I thought I was almost free.

I pause, breathless when I spot a cabin. Running up, I pound on the wooden door and wail again. The people inside shriek and rummage around for light, wanting to see what's outside. "Help me! Help me, please!!" A dimmed flashlight points my way, and the people shout again. A child cries, and a parent shushes them.

"Go away!" a voice comes from inside, and the curtains shut quickly.

Shaken up from these words, I cross my arms tightly together and claw at my forearms. "Please," I cry. Moving to the window, I scratch the glass and create long gouges. Bits of glass fall from the cracks and rain down on the porch I stand on. I glance down and see the white and gray wisps again, clouding around my feet. The ghost has followed me, I can't escape it. My hope slowly ebbed away again.

"Noooooo, nooooooooooooo!" I wail and stumble backward, tripping over my own self in fear. Cold air buffets against my fur, and I know that it's catching up to me. "Please, no!!"

Flinging myself into the forest again, I sob openly. "Why me, why?!" In my hurry for an escape, I trip over a root. I tumble down a hill, pieces of leaves catching in my hair. Surrendering, I collapse on the ground and weep. A wolf approaches me slowly before snarling and backing away as fast as it came. Even the animals can find no way to help. I dig my hands into the mud below and clench them into fists, gritting my teeth painfully. The fallen leaves catch the wind and twirl around me as if taunting me for my inability. My tears burn as they trail down my cheeks, and I wipe them hastily away.

Everyone is so afraid, just like me. No one will help me. Clenching my eyes shut, I assure myself that this is just a dream and force myself to fall asleep. It's a cruel dream, and I'll wake up in the morning. I'll be perfectly fine tomorrow, and this ghost will be gone. I'll be free.

I wake up when what seems like moments later, and I'm back where I started again. A bloodcurdling scream escapes my throat.
