When I awake I look over to see James looking out of the weto. He looks down at me and says

"Good morning Mary"

I look up and say it back. But something doesn't seem right.

"What is the matter?" I asked

He looks down with a worried look on his face.

"I can't tell you" he said shyly.

"But why James? Have I done something to upset you?" I asked him with a hint of curiosity and worriedness to my voice. He just looks at me once more and walks out of the weto. I started to cry the feeling of being left alone had me worried that I would be seen in his wetoo all by myself. Then I walked up to the entrance of the wetoo and looked around for him. All I see is just some footprints in the snow leading into the woods. I thought he was going to get some venison but then I remembered that the meat was hanging by the side of the wetoo. I put on my deer skin moccasins and followed his footsteps into the woods. I kept following his trail in the cold winter snow. The wind was cold against my soft skin. I could feel the bitter cold on the ears, it kept nipping at me. That's when I noticed when James's footsteps were different. But I couldn't believe my eyes. They... they were dog prints with big claws. The size was enormous it must have been the size of my two hands put together. Then I hear some crunching on the iced over snow. Then I look up to see it, it was not James. It was a big wolf with blood dripping from the bottom jaw of its head. The fierce look it was was frightening. I could see the dead deer back about twenty yards behind it. I was terrified for my life. I looked dead into the enormous beast's beautiful eyes. They sky blue eyes were just as James's I then thought to myself

"Is that James? It.... it couldn't be."

I see it start to move towards me from about fifteen yards away. It started to pick up its pace. Then the beast showed its mighty teeth the roar of the beast was heart dropping. I started to step back but then suddenly I fell through a hole in the deep winter snow. My back was in horrible pain. The dark cave was very damp as I lay on the cold frozen dirt. I all I can see is just the light from the hole I fell throught. My legs were in agonizing pain. I looked around and found a long dry torch. I used my flint and steel to start it. The warm fire felt good on my hands. I started to walk down the long dark cave. There were scratches and markings on the walls. The claw marks we very deep. Then I heard footsteps coming from within the dark and gloomy cave. I could see a light from the end of the cave. I started to walk toward the light. The in stopped, so did I. Then the light started to move faster and faster. The sounds of walking footsteps turned to running. Then I saw it, it was Quinnapin.

"Come fast Mary." He said

I followed him through the caves. Then I heard the huge thud from behind us. I looked back and saw it it was the huge beast from the hole I fell through. It ran fast at us, Quinnapin took his spear and was ready for battle.

"Run Mary run!!!" He said.

I ran down the cave until I saw daylight again. I heard screaming and then the huge roar from the beast. Then I couldn't believe my eyes tt was James. He was standing in front of the cave for me. I couldn't believe my eyes. I thought that the beast was him, but it wasn't.

"We need to go" He said.

"But what was that thing and where did you go? I asked.

"We canot talk now he said." James said.

Then from behind us the beast comes out of the cave. It roared at us then I could see the blood running from its mouth. It leaped onto James and ripped his throat open the blood splattered everywhere. Then the beast looked at me. I got up and ran back to the wetoo as fast as I could. Then I woke up in a pool of sweat. I couldn't breath then James look down at me and asked

"Are you okay?"
