It was a typical morning for me,I woke up and kissed Aria gently as not to wake her and I went into the kitchen to cook breakfast for her. I made bacon and eggs with french toast and a cup of coffee,I put it in the tray and went to our bedroom.

"Wake up dear it's morning" I said with love.

I gently pat her head as she woke up and hugged my arm.

"Good morning dear, thanks for breakfast again" she kissed my palm.

Aria uttered something under her breath that I couldn't hear.

I put the tray of breakfast by her side and I kiss her lovingly,my lips against hers in a gentle feeling of love.

She broke away first and hugged me.

"Dear I've got to work late tonight,the deers are becoming a problem in the woods" she looked at me sadly.

I gave her a nod and I let her eat her breakfast while I go and go into the basement to work on my magnum opus.

19 hours had passed and is was dead in the night.

I got nervous and took one of my modified guns with me into the woods to look for Aria.

"Aria! Aria if you can hear me follow my voice" I shouted.

I get my gun ready in case something unwanted heard me. I kept my steps as quiet as I could and used some inferred glasses to pick up her heat signature in case she was hiding from something.

A deer walks up to me and looks me in the eyes. It's black eyes glassy and it's movements are steady and straight,not quite like a deer normally should.

I get a gut feeling to point my gun at it,not because it didn't flinch,but because my inferred glasses show it has no heat signature which is impossible.

The deer stands on it's back legs fast than I can move and punches me in the gut.

I don't even time to recover as the deer kicks me away into a nearby tree and I groan in pain.

The deer let's out an ungodly screech and sheds it's skin, it's body boney and mangled with guts hanging loose and razor sharp claws long as kitchen knives and it's head is that of a deer skull but bloodied with black ooze and hollow out eyes.

I aim my gun at it and immediately set it's incendiary rounds on and fire right at it's head.

The beast is too fast and dodges them all swings it's claws at my arm and gnashing it nearly off. It then runs it's other claws through my side right through my kidney.

I scream in pain but I manage to shoot a round in it's head and it engulfs in flames as the beast rips it's claws out of me and screeches violently before collapsing on the ground still burning.

I try to stand up but the pain is too much and I know that I am dying,that thing probably killed Aria too. I shed tears at the thought of her suffering that fate, atleast I'll be reunited with her soon.

The blood loss is too much and I fall to the ground and everything goes black.
