The thing

Me and Brian run through the woods and away from the animal chasing us.

"THIS WAY!" I scream.

We turn into a huddle of pine trees and watch as the dog runs by us. Him and I pant and breath heavily.

"That was f***ing close" He says.

I giggle and nod causing him to look at me and grin.

"what's so funny?" He asks.

I grin at him.

"You, I mean like we almost died and your cracking jokes" I explain.

He giggles.

"That wasn't really a joke b..." He stops mid sentence and stares blankly at something behind me, I can tell by the expression on his face he's looking at something terrifying.

"Turn around, very slowly" He whispers.

I slowly turn around and stare at the red eyed wolf staring at me with foam pouring out of its ripped mouth. My heart starts pounding and I can feel a panic attack starting inside of me, I'm pretty sure Brian knew as well by the thing he's about to do.

He grabs me and we run into a group of trees and hide.

"I'm gonna distract it, when I run you climb a tree or something and wait for me to come back, ok?" He says.

My eyes widen and I glance at him.

"No I'm not gonna let you risk your life just to save me" I say.

He shrugs and grabs his knife.

"just do it ok? for me?" ,He asks, "wait here if I'm not back in two hours then....run, ok?"

My breathing speeds up even more and I can feel tears coming.

"A, Calm down please" He says.

I tilt my head.

"A?" I ask.

"Can I call you that?" He asks.

I nod and put one of my hands around my throat as it gets harder for my to breath.

"A, down please, your hyperventilating" He explains.

I struggle to breath then he takes a deep breath and....Kisses me. My eyes widen then my breathing starts returning to normal and I give into the kiss. I start to forget about everything and everything else blurs out of my life. He pulls back.

"Sorry for that I just figured it would get your mind off things" He says.

"I...It's fine" I reply.

That's when I see the wolf lunging toward Brian.

"BRIAN!!!!!" I scream as loud as I can.

He pushes me out of the way and it digs its sharp bloody teeth into his shoulder, He grunts in pain and falls backwards.

"BRIAN!!!" I scream again.

I look around and theres no weapon in sight. I try kicking it off but it stays stuck into him.

"BRIAN!" I sob.

I look around again and see a big rock, I grab it and run over to them and I crack the wolf over the head with it knocking it off of him. I fall onto my butt and the wolf lunges toward me. I just barely move away in time and I hit him in the head with the rock again. It digs it's fangs into my leg and I scream in pain. BOOM! The wolf falls over and I look at Brian laying there with a gun in his hand.

"BRIAN YOUR ALIVE!" I yell.

I crawl over to him and hug him.

"ya" He says.

He slowly stands up.

"I'm g..gonna go get help can you s..stay here?" He asks.

I nod.

"If i'm not back in two hours run ok?" he says.

A couple tears roll down my cheek and I nod. He kisses me on the forehead and walks away. I sit there on the cold, dirty ground looking into the group of trees and I hold back the waterfalls building up in my eyes. I look at the horrible wound on my leg which is gushing blood and I fall onto my back. and think 'this is only the beginning of the end'.



A/N

Sorry that you didn't get to figure out who the other people are in the beginning but i promise you you'll find out very soon.

I have a couple questions.

Do you think Brian is going to come back?

Did Allison make the wrong choice to run into the woods with him?

And

What do you think was wrong with the animals?
