It was dusk when Elle finally got off work and was heading home. Her legs ached, but she walked steadily, motivated by thoughts of soaking in the bath and then curling up in bed with a good book.

Within a few blocks of her apartment, uneasiness began creeping up upon her. It felt like she was being watched. The hairs on the back of her neck stood up despite the warm night air. While only half convinced her mind was tired, she quickened her pace anyway.

The faster she walked, the more the street lights illuminating her path seemed to flicker. Then all at once they darkened completely. The moon's soft blue glow took over casting shadows over the street as Elle broke into a run. Soon though, even the moon was overtaken by a passing dark cloud and she found herself running in darkness.

Suddenly her legs felt as if she were trying to run through water. Though she poured all her strength into trying to move her legs, they barely responded to her mind's urgent need to flee. The sensation crawled up the rest of her body until Elle found herself almost completely paralyzed. She opened her mouth to scream, but even her voice no longer obeyed her.

Wide eyes starred into the darkness as she heard the light rustling of clothing. As her vision adjusted, she saw the silhouette of a black figure approaching her. Chills ran down her spine as fear grabbed a hold of her senses. The night had turned ominous and Elle felt entirely helpless.

The clouds finally freed the moonlight as they drifted past the sky, but the street was now minus one young woman. The other people on the street went about their business, blind to the fact anything mysterious had just happened. The street lights lit up once again and the air stood still, without so much a breath of wind.
I fall into nearly obsessive love with certain pairings from time to time. This is the first time I've been this inspired by a fellow deviant. Since they seem to be popular, I thought I'd throw my hat into the ring to help my own writing skills. Contributing to the awesome Mias and Elle fandom is satisfying enough though. I just hope people enjoy mine.

Inspiration of course comes from the wonderful and talented creator of Mias and Elle, Miss Jenny :iconstressedjenny: and of course the fan fics of deviant authors and fellow MiasElle fans Midnightfaery :iconmidnightfaery: and Txanchika :icontxanchika: Please check out their works if you find mine unsatisfactory.
