Taken

Chapter 5: The Pain

AUTHORS NOTE:   sorry if this chapter is really crappy, fast paced, and short. i didn't really have very much time to write it, i have been really busy with school and all.

Ryko's POV- she is not here. i have been looking for five minutes. she is not in the house. not anywhere. i looked at the clock, and it was about 10:30. " raeaeaeaeh" i tried screeching for her, in case she was playing a game of hide and seek, but no answer. how could i have lost her. my little pup is gone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

after a while more of looking through the house, i decided to look outside, even with the pain of knowing that she might be dead. i searched around outside for 8 hours, and killed a few common infected, until i was finally smart enough to stop and think about where she might have gone. then i finally realized it. how could i have been so dumb! of course she went to go look for her kitten! i leapt off into the forest to go see if i could find her. it was already about 9:00 pm when i heard some crying. a witch? or a child? it was very dangerous to go find out, but it is worth the risk. i silently leapt into a tree near the creature. after a few minutes, i decided to take the chance, and i leapt onto the creature from above while screeching, and heard it scream as i landed on it. i pinned its arms down not very hard, whatever it was. it took a while for my eyes to adjust, and when they did, i immediately regretted my decision.
the witch screamed then slit my arm with her long claws, causing me to jump back, letting her go. i clutched my arm due to the excruciating pain, forgetting about the creature in front of me, arms outstretched, about to strike.
i heard it scream, and saw it start running towards me. i immediately ducked, causing it to run into and strike the tree. i dug my claws into its leg, and heard it cry out in pain. i rolled off to the side as it reached down to hit me. i got up and went to jump into the tree, when i was immediately dragged off by a smoker, and slammed into the witch. the witch screamed and turned around to face the smoker, realizing that he was the culprit. as soon as i saw her start running off toward it, i tried to be quiet as i got up and ran the other direction. i kept running and running until the sounds of the screaming witch and the dying smoker faded away completely.
i ran a little bit farther, just to be safe, and tripped over something and fell right onto my arm with the large bleeding gash on it, from the witch. not very safe after all. the last thing i felt was a sharp pain in my head, before everything went black.

pain.   so. much.   pain.......
