She was sure this was where he had disappeared. Was it really a he or an it. Looking down the hole with the light hovering above the hole. All she could see is pitch black darkness. Putting the light down away from the hole she take down my hood to have my red hair fall on to my shoulders.

Backing away from the hole and move forward to look for it. Still wondering what it was. Not paying attention to where she was walking back to the hole. walking right it to it. Falling down on falling on a hard ground.

She looks up to see the slight glow from the moon shining through the hole that she fell through.Looking down to see just a few feet away from her was her lantern glowing.

"I guess I dropped it while falling." She said in whisper tone

After she spoke she heard a rustle in the background. Reaching for her lantern to see what was that noise.

"What If it is really down here?" She questioned herself.

Grabbing her lantern she moved slowly in a circle with the lantern in front of her. From the glowing light from the light she could see better of where she was.  But all she could see was wooden walls, some old beaten down furniture and then it. Jumping back just slightly just to see it was sleeping. Slowly and carefully back away onto a one of the pieces of furniture. Looking back at the creature I could look at more closely to see it looked like a wolf mixed and a lion. 

Looking more closely at it the light got to close to its eye and she could see Crystal blue eyes filled with fear but ready to attack. Back up more into the furniture it got up and started to walk closer to her the faster she moved she. Faster It went. Climb over the furniture. She dropped her lantern and the light slowly went out. not knowing where to go she got up and tripped. She hears a growl. The last thing she see from the shine of the little bit of moonlight was the crystal blue eyes shine and then everything went black.
