Walking through the treelines, you follow the old trail snaking through the woods looking for wild animals to marvel at as you love to do, especially during springtime. You enjoy the shade granted by the trees, one side an open and sunny field and a foreboding dark on the other side, deeper in the shaded woods.
As you stroll along the path, you start hearing weird noises coming from deeper in the woods mixed in with howls. You know that the woods have a pack of wolves living in it, and have heard rumors that there is something else too living with them... rumors that during full moon nights, beasts standing on two feet bigger and stronger than any man roam the woods hunting and killing.
That makes you feel both scared and excited, knowing you may come face to face with a real-life werewolf! But of course, deep down you know that those are just tales and not something that can happen...
Nevertheless, you think that even if those are just tall tales maybe going to see and take a look at the pack wouldn't hurt, if you pay attention and don't anger them. With an heavy sigh, you turn away from the beaten path heading to the deeper parts of the woods following the noises you heard.
Stomping through the underbrush you make your way through the shady woods, following the noises of howling you can hear looking for the pack... until you can't hear it anymore. You walk around some more, the trees all mixing together and the direction blurring together making you more and more lost as time goes on. You start to panic, completely lost in a forest miles away from civilization and no way to contact rescuers!
Then you hear it again. A low growl, this time much much closer than before. Swinging your head side to side, you try to pinpoint exactly where the noise comes from holding the pocket knife you brought on the trip in your trembling hand.
"W-Who goes there! Come out!" you yell, stuttering and panicked but ready to defend yourself.
That is, until you spot a figure on two legs among the trees. 'Maybe it's another hiker, that heard me scream!' you think, getting your hopes back up somewhat... only for them to be crushed as it steps forward revealing that it's not a human at all.
Standing on denigrate legs, hands tipped with sharp-looking claws, a muscled body covered in black fur topped by a wolf head, you discover that the rumors are no rumors at all face to face with a real life werewolf!
Dropping the knife in fear, you stumble back falling on the ground, scampering as far as you can getting back to back with a tree as the mythical beast advances into view, revealing...  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
