Plants are beautiful things, able to grow without our help and able to create beautiful things, such as flowers.

Ive always loved flowers, ever since I was a child. Their shapes and scents have always fascinated me, but lately the flowers in my garden have been acting strange. Their leafs shaping into strange unnatural shapes, shapes that shouldn't be in nature.

Some leafs have contorted into the shape of a skull and others just twist into themselves making shapes that are hard for the eye to follow. Its just strange, i can't find any information on why the leafs have been changing all of a sudden, I wonder why.

Every day I go outside and cheek on my garden, making sure everything is in order and that my plants are growing without trouble, and today was no different. I took my gardening gloves and went outside, the sunshine shining down on me. I smiled and walked towards my garden, the colorful flowers open. As i got there i smiled looking down at my beautiful flowers, but something seemed off about them.

Their scent wasn't the usual sweet one but instead seemed metallic. It seemed so familiar yet i couldn't tell why.

I shrugged it off and decided to make sure the plants where growing nicely, but all the weeds where dead and decaying. It was strange since yesterday there were no weeds, but somehow they grew and died in less than a day. I stood up and sighed. I probably just mistook the weeds for plants. As i was about to go back to my house, I heard something calling out to me, its voice raspy and low.

It seemed like it was coming from the garden. I looked back but saw no one. But i could still hear someone but couldn't see them. I walked back and noticed something in the garden, it looked like a child but at the same time it didn't. The kid seemed too skinny to be a person but it looked like a young child. I walked towards the "kid" and the metallic smell grew. I reached the kid and put a hand on his shoulder. "Are you ok?" I asked looking down at him. The kid didn't move but said "Help us, help us. The fairies took us and trapped us, help us" I was confused, what did he mean by the fairies.

As soon as he finished the flowers started to shake and the leave started to return to their normal form, but small fairy emerged from some of the leaves. The kid stood up and pushed me down, despite his size. I was about to stand up but felt myself be held down by the small creatures. I looked up at the child but there was no face. My eyes widened, what was happening? "We need to feed" a low raspy voice said as a fairy, no creature, landed on my nose.

"and you will fill us" I wanted to scream but couldn't, I was too scared. I could feel myself get dragged into the ground, the scent growing until I recognized it, it was blood. I closed my eyes as i felt sharp pain in my arms, like small needles piercing my skin. Slowly i felt dirt fill up my nose, blocking my breathing, until.. nothing. I was just standing in darkness. I looked down and saw myself, being eaten by those creatures. I guess I'm stuck here now.
