Unexplainable

Chapter 7

Wha...What just...happened...?

Everything was foggy, like someone had clouded her vision, yet she didn't feel any pain. Hannah's impaired eyesight spotted a dark shadow moving at the edge of her vision, spiking another shot of adrenaline through her bloodstream. Jumping up unsteadily, she grabbed the object nearest to her, which turned out to be her bedside lamp. As she got a good grip on it, she saw the black silhouette flying towards her right side in her peripheral vision, golden eyes full of triumph and muscled arms reaching out for her throat-

Hannah swung the lamp groggily, missing the Nevergreen's head but hitting the arm nearest to her. The ceramic base smashed in half on contact with the Nevergreen's limb, providing an excellent jagged weapon. As Hannah's foggy brain struggled to comprehend this rush of information, the beast grasped the teenage girl from behind, in a choking bear-hug, lifting her off the ground. One furry arm hooked around her neck, cutting off her intake of oxygen. Hannah dropped the lamp and opened her eyes wide, seeing everything in perfect clarity.

I am going to die right now.
