Fugaze

This creature is also known as the "creeper" by some students. He is typically found searching for people he met recently, acting like he knows them, and constant touching. Most individuals that have encounter this beast, run in terror or play along with its game. This creature was first discovered by high school students trying to take photographs of one another. Fugaze jumped into the background and began his legend. This creature can be found in 90% of all pictures taken since his birth. He is known for his uncanny stealthy, ability to find anyone and every one at any time.

The first story comes form one, Chris , he was the first person that the clingy Fugaze chose to stalk relentlessly. when departing form the bus to a amusement park, he was followed, and only when everyone else had ditched did he realize his situation. He had been left alone with Fugaze, all alone. His mind went into escape mode, but this creature was too knowledgeable in these maneuvers. First he attempted the "wait for me I need to use the bathroom" technique, but Fugaze followed him to the door and waited ready to pounce. Then, Chris tried to run, but Fugaze ran after him and asked what they were running from. this demoralized Chris greatly, but an idea sprung in his head. he quickly found some other people, introduced Fugaze, and began retreating into the shadows. Chris ran and ran until he was no longer in range of Fugaze's radar and was safe.

Another eye witness account of this creatures tenacity, Ryan a Senior at Coral Gables Senior high, met Fugaze on a bus ride to Orlando and could not get away. he attempted to hide in a public restroom but Fugaze waited outside for nearly 10 minutes and even came inside to check on Ryan's condition. After several attempts to escape, he succeeded by pawning him off to another person. this experience took a great tole on this man. He has reoccurring nightmares where he is being chased by Fugaze in a dark light tunnel.

Not sure where all of these other, 'Hipster', fugaze/fugazi definitions originate on Urban Dictionary, but they don't illustrate the appropriate tone and meaning of the word. See what I did there? #trash #fake #fronters #lames
