Sophie wanted to race out of the hut but her legs failed her. A loud growl emerged from inside the hut. Once it started, it didn’t stop. Just as she was trying to make a sense of it, she caught a pair of glowing eyes, staring right at her from the darkness. She quickly aimed her flashlight at the eyes, letting out a loud gasp. A ten feet tall wolf, standing on its hind legs glared at her, ready to pounce. The muscles were more than intimidating and the eyes glowed like hot coals. Sophie stared in disbelief and dropped the flashlight. It took her a moment to recognize the mythological beast she didn’t hope to meet that night. She stepped back to evacuate. The werewolf pounced at her. She wanted to scream but only soundless air came out of her mouth as she fell to the ground on her back. The beast was above her in a blink of an eye. It stared into her soul as it stood above her with its paws firmly planted at either side of her. Tears flowed through her eyes at that moment of despair and crippling fear. The monstrous beast looked like a death incarnate. The beast’s drool landed inches beside her face and she squirmed. “Aaron?” she barely managed. The beast ignored it like nothing had left her mouth at all. She closed her eyes as she braced herself for a fatal swipe.
