(Jesse's pov)
I let out horrified gasp as I brace myself for Ace's murderous teeth to slash and tear through my shaking flesh. A blast of relief shocks me like a thunder storm when he leaps 10 feet clear over me in one single bound. He lands heroically on the vegetation dominating the forest floor. I stand up and brush myself off. He growls deep in his throat, his eyes darting around the scene, his ears picking up on every little movement for miles. He must be growling at something! A shadow bullets around, weaving in and out of the trees, soaring through the branches reaching out for any bit of help to be taken out of this place, just like me. Ace lunges into the woods, thrashing through the thick brush, howling and barking like crazy. A loud demon-like screech pierces my ears with such pain I fall to the forest floor. I hear a whimper and Ace limps out of the darkness, a deep slash stretching around his face, every drop of blood highlighted but the moonlight.
