Please add to this short story....
The night had come and gone. As morning broke the feeling in the air was one of anticipation. The sweat on his brow was beading because his heart was pounding even more intensely than he remembered it ever before.
How could it have happened? How could the pipe have appeared again? Had he not defeated the Bagpiper years ago?......

( ) Of course, everyone he told about the Bagpipe thought he was insane. Maybe he was... His name was Vance Callahan. He was in either his late twenties or early thirties... he couldn't remember anymore. In fact, there weren't many things that he could remember. If, however, it was related to the Bagpipe in any way, the memories were crystal clear. He rarely got any sleep. He was always afraid that the Bagpipe would return. And now that it did, he hadn't slept for days... maybe months. Or years. He didn't know. He was too afraid to even care. Maybe he was dead. Maybe this was Hell.

Hell, indeed. His life had been Hell since he encountered "The Bagpiper". "The Bagpiper's" stench was one of pungent grossness. Not your normal odd smell, mind you, but one of "Death". The "Bagpiper" was known to have killed the innocent along with the guilty. He always knew when the bagpiper was near because he smelled "that smell" and saw "the pipes"....

And this time, he did smell "the smell". He sat there, under a tree. How did he get in the forest anyways? He didn't know. When he was under the tree, the smell came to him. He began sweating profusely, full of terrible, unexplainable fear. His eyes scanned everything around him, as far as he could see in the thick fog, searching for the pipes. The pipes that he hated. The pipes that almost killed him once, and made him go insane. He knew the reason he was in the forest had something to do with the pipes, but he couldn't remember exactly. When he spotted the pipes, Vance screamed. He shot up and ran, ran, ran, never stopping, never looking back. He could almost hear the painful music; but he knew there was none, for he only saw the pipes, not the Bagpiper. But he knew he was around.

Suddenly, without warning, a great wind began to blow through the forest. The sky began to turn dark and Vance heard a faint whisper.

"You know you can not escape me." The whispering voice made his ears ring. A loud, skull-rattling whisper. The wind picked up, blowing the fog in violent patterns. Trees fell around him. Vance couldn't see farther than a couple of feet in front of him.
That's when the hand reached out through the soaring fog.

Striking at the hand with a large branch, Vance struggled to get to higher ground so as to have the advantage on the phalange-filled foe. Unfortunately, he lost his footing and fell to the ground.

(Fun!!)
When Vance glared ahead, his eyes misted as he saw a dark figure gliding towards him. Doom approached him, for Doom was the Bagpiper's name. The Bagpiper was all of Vance's fears in life; his dark past. He wept.

"Why do you weep?" he asked himself. Sitting still, as if lifeless, with red eyes and pale flesh his tears dried up.
No one ever knew about what Lance had done. Nobody ever discovered the body -the body of the bagpiper, that is. Lance, and Lance alone knew what he had done when he was a wee bit of a lad.
Suddenly, the vision revisited him.... There he was as a 9 year old boy in Scottland. He could see his Mum and Papa across the street of the parade. Lance got to sit on the float this year with the band. It was a Scottish Bagpiping band. Lance hated bagpipe music with a passion. That is when his anger swelled up inside of himself and he glared at the man playing the bagpipe next to him on the float.

Fury burned violently within him, spreading through his skull, inflicting pain with every note that screamed at him. Vance was a normal boy. Nothing was wrong with him.
Nothing anyone knew about.

Other than the fact that he was emo.

So he killed the bagpiper and hid his body. The End.
