Back when I was 16/17
We were round my mate's house, about 5 of us, sat drinking port (yes, very poncey, it was their idea). I then suggest, at about 2am "Oi.. fancy going for a walk in the fields?". At the time I had a sort of interest in seeing places at night time, in almost total darkness. My mate had just split up with his girlfriend the same night and we'd had a sombre walk home in a beautiful, chilled sunset.

"Alright then", they said, slightly sozzled off the port. So off we walk across the field, passing the port to the left as we walked in a line.

"Need a piss" I said, and my mate realised he did too. So in the middle of an open field surrounded by a rugby pitch and a few trees we had a massive piss. After shining the torch on our arcing streams we notice something across the field. It looked like some kind of weird form... either a dog or something wrapped in a blanket.

"Patrick... what's that?" I ask, nodding towards this shape in the distance. My mate drops the torch. As he picks it up the others come to join us. He shines the light on the shape, the beam barely penetrating the thick fog that seemed to have crept up on us (Silent Hill style). It illuminates and we see this long shape wrapped in something white but slightly dirty about a football pitch away from us.

"SHIT." my friend shouts and legs it back to his house WITH THE TORCH.

We were all stood there, in the pitch black, watching a torch slowly fade away, then we decided we should follow it, at full speed.

Next morning we decide to head back out and see it in the daylight.



It was a bunch of flowers.
