'Chop'

'Chop'

'Chop'

'Swoosh!'

Sounds of an axe colliding with a tree echo around, the tree falls in a soft quick motion leaving little leaves behind.

Two men were standing near a tree while the third one stopped for a moment to take a breath.

His name was Sean and he was a wood cutter.

Looking around the other trees, they moved calmly around the area considering there were no other people around except the three of them.

Wiping the sweat that was dripping down Sean's face he went to take a break from chopping, putting his axe down but halted his movement.

'Swish, swish'

Sean lets out a quiet gasp turning his body to the forest.

Its dark atmosphere radiated off danger which made the middle-aged man squeak tumbling to get his axe in his hand in a clumsy motion.

He grabbed the light that was on the right, the other men behind him checked to see what was wrong with their companion.

Seeing the scared look in Sean's eyes they held their axe in both of their hands getting ready in attack mode.

Sean walked a little closer to the forest holding the light a little up to his face so that he can see.

Many white tiny eyes were staring at the three men making them shriek in terror.

The tiny white eyes turned light yellow as many big grey wolves came out from the dark forest growling and snarling at the men.

Their sharp razor teeth showed in a threatening way scaring them.

"WOLF... WOLF!" Sean screamed as he turned away from them trying to run, but his companions already left screaming in terror.

Sweat dripped down his face as he panicked, the wolves were all rotating around the man snarling and growling.

The man kept yelling nonsense as he tried to get the wolves away from him by using his axe to swing it around.

"Get back! Get back!" One of the wolves snapped back at him as if telling him to shut up.

"AHHH!" He went to pick up his axe swinging it down at one wolf but it dodged. It leaped at Sean's axe chomping at it and breaking it in the process.

One of the wolves lifted its sharp claws to the man and scraped him twice leaving two long scars that formed a 'X' behind.

Sean screams and falls back from the sudden attack leaving him defenseless as his axe was now broken In half.

He scoots back, backing away from the wolves and shutting his eyes in the process.
