An Abundance of Moths

Part 2 beginning~Chapter 9: Cowboy Cat Bat Thing

You push Wolf out of the way as the cowboy cat-bat thing pulls the trigger. A loud bang comes from the gun as confetti shoots out of the silver pistol. You and Wolfgang stare at the cowboy, eyes full of horror. "HAHHA, AYE TOALLY GOT YA'S! OH YA SHOULDA SEEN YALLS FACE AH HAHAH!" Says the cowboy's Southern voice, laughing so hard he began coughing uncontrollably. He takes out an inhaler and inhales deeply. "Ahhhh. Sorry bout tat. Jus had to do et." He says wiping away a tear from laughing so hard. You and wolf continue to just stare at him, then wolf opens his mouth and says "Can uh we help you uh sir". He says this with his voice trembling. "Yea, actually, ya see me motorcycle broke its leg if ya know what I mean". You and wolf slowly turn to see behind the muscular cat-bat thing. You see a motorcycle, but it has two legs instead of two wheels. You look back at wolf and he looks back at you. "Uh- I'm not a technician- nor a surgeon." You say to the cowboy slowly. "Oh. Aye see. Well, if ya can't help me, then I guess all there is left for me to do is-" he looks back at the two boys slowly. Chuckling, showing his massive, sharp, yellow teeth. "Devour you both whole!" 
You and Wolfgang begin running as fast as your legs could go, still trying to follow the dead opossums. You look back to see the cowboy get onto his two legged motorcycle. It begins to move-run towards you guys. "Run faster you idiot! I'm don't want a cowboy cat thing on a motorcycle with legs to kill me, I want a handsome cowboy on a two legged motorcycle to kill me and that thing is not handsome!" Wolfgang says to you panting. Suddenly the cowboy lunges at you guys a centimeter to grabbing wolf's frizzy hair. You push wolf out of the way and the cowboy grabs you by the shirt and pulls you towards him. "RICKY!" Screams wolf reaching out to you desperately. The cowboy's mouth opens wider and wider. It's mouth wider than you! As if it were a snake with two rows of razor sharp teeth. It's breath smells like a corpse x10. It begins to put you into its mouth slowly beginning to bite down on your soft flesh. Suddenly you hear a loud bang. The cat cowboy things grip on you loosens and his teeth let go of your bloody neck. You fall to the ground along with the things body. You see wolf vaguely. You feel as if you're going to pass out. "You okay buddy?" Asks wolf. Suddenly everything goes black.

You wake up on the desert ground. Suddenly there's a sharp pain in your neck. You sit up rubbing your neck. It is dark out and there is a fire crackling next to you. You look at it then look up to see wolf roasting some opossum. You assume he found it on the path. "Oh. You're finally awake. Want some opossum. There's plenty to pick from." Wolf says pointing at the trail of opossum corpses you guys had been instructed to follow. "Nah. Not really hungry. Just in pain." You say still rubbing your neck.  You move next to Wolfgang and look up at the stars. They seem brighter than usual. "Hey," wolf says, "I pick pocketed the crazy cowboy dude and found some shit." He pulls out an assortment of items. A small pistol, a crumpled piece of paper, a glass eye and a small piece of a deer antler. "How peculiar." You say picking up the crumpled paper. You read it aloud.

Kill him. Eat him. Do what you want. Just don't dispose of his soul.

You and wolf sit there silently. You know who him is and now you're scared.
