I stare at the creature. It looks like a nine foot tall dark brown bear with razor sharp pearly white fangs and claws. "Back away slowly," I say, putting my hands out in front of me and slowly beginning to walk back.
The creature roared, a robotic screech filling the air, making me cover my ears and close my eyes. When the screeching stops, I look up to see the creature about to ponce on me, but instead falls back, a long knife in his back. Jaeyln stands behind it.
"What?" she asks.
"Nothing, but thanks," I say.
"It was nothing. I saw what needed to be done so I did." Ben suddenly wrapped his arms around her.
"Thank you for saving my sister," he says and Jaelyn smiles, pulling a lock of long wavy auburn hair out of her face.
"It was nothing."
"Thanks anyway," Ben says, pulling away from Jaelyn.
****
My eyes force open. The robotic bear thing again, but this time in my sleep. It killed Ben and the others, leaving me alone. Thankfully it was just a dream, a nightmare. I sigh and close my eyes.
