(Looking for any type of feedback, all is appreciated. Enjoy.)

Joel had just finished his dinner when his dog, Odin, began to bark. Joel turned in his seat, finding Odin standing next to the door, needing to go for a walk. Joel frowned slightly, then smiled and went to retrieve his coat.

He attached Odin to the leash and opened the door, feeling blast of warm sir. Joel threw his coat back into the house and closed the door. It was a nice evening for a walk, but Joel was a little paranoid. He had been afraid of the dark for many years, and it embarrassed him to the point of just not paying attention to it. Nevertheless, he was very uncomfortable about bring out here.

Joel walked straight ahead, hopefully getting Odin to where he usually does his business so he could get out of here. Very few street lights existed in this part of town, but it was bright enough that he could see. Still, his paranoia began to build gradually. He just wanted to get home.

But Odin took a sharp turn right, walking towards the forest Joel and Odin liked to play in. During the day, of course. Joel shuddered, suddenly cold despite the oddly warm winter air. The forest would surely have little to no light in there. It wouldn't be a good place for Joel to venture into.

But Odin was stubborn. "Aw, c'mon, boy, really?" Joel pleaded. The dog held firm.

Joel sighed, exasperated and wanting nothing more to get home. But, as he thought, he realized this would be a good chance to overcome his fear. He finally obliged and let Odin into the forest.

Jorl couldn't see much, but he could make out Odin and his house. He let Odin do his business then he turned to exit. However he was stopped short by the foliage that had sealed off the path. Joel and Odin were trapped in the forest.

(Again, anything that needs to get added, fixed, etc is appreciated. I have an idea for Part 2, but I want to hear your suggestions first. Thank you so much!)
