It was dark and a stormy night, there were strong heavy winds blowing and rain, I was running from something that was in the darkness of these very woods.... Something that wanted to kill... You can hear it's foot steps slamming on the little dead branches that on the ground from each step. You can also hear its ragged breathing from all the running, but wants it want to keep going until its prey is caught.

Though this was no ordinary monster that would automatically give up and look for something else eat on instead, this is a type of monster that has the smarts on killing prey that you even expect.... How could you know when your hunter has put you in trap that they set out for you, well to tell you the truth.. It just happens.

A few moments later, I've been running for hours and I was starting to grow tired and started slowing and sometimes think when is this dream is ever going to end. I needed to find somewhere to hide and fast, so took a quick look behind me to see if that thing is gone for now. Then I found a strange that ever since I've been running, I haven't even bothered knowing what the monster even looks like. But why am I worried about it for, I should be lucky that I haven't gotten caught yet. For some reason I stopped running, and heard nothing.... No more foot steps and no more ragged breathing, I wondered if the monster finally gave up on me for time being and wanted nothing to do with me. Then after all of sudden everything was starting to go blurry and once again heard the same ragged breathing but this it was close enough to touch its snout with a hand. One last look at the monster before I leave this dream, it has glowing blue eyes, dark fur that could blend in through the morning and night and it was huge. Then everything went black.....

My eyes shot open and had sweat all over my body. It must been some nightmare I had to make me sweat this much. I looked around my room turning to the clock it read 5:00 and I shift my head and turned to the window seeing that it's still a little night out, but I can see the sun was starting to rise. Watching the sun rise to its peek was beautiful, even though it was a weekend.

~Sigh~ Oh yeah, I almost forgotten to introduce myself.... I'm Toujou Nozomi, I'm nineteen years old and on my first year of college and I also have a boyfriend named Yamazkai Yoichi. We met at a café and have been going out for four mouths now taking things slow and steady. Have we kissed? Yeah we have a few times here and there and when he first confessed to me. He is one of the top governor's son that has known my parents before I was even born. He is also a lead player of a football team at the college we both go to. Yoichi also said that when we graduate college he's going to propose to me which I am really happy for. But enough about me lets get back to what I was saying.

Since I'm up I mind as well go to the shrine and gather some spiritual power from there. As I got out of bed and went to the bathroom to get washed up.... Few minutes later, I was in my casual clothes since it's the weekend. I put on my shoes and started heading out to the shrine. On my way there I've spotted something in the distance... It seems to be a dog. So I went closer to the animal to see why was this poor animal just laying there and what I found out was the dog is huge and was badly injured, it had scars everywhere on its body, though I was relieved that this animal is still breathing but it must be unconscious. What cruel person would do something like this to the innocent creature and leaves it on the sidewalk?.....

So what I did was that I carried it back to my house.... I have to tell you that this animal is really heavy and I though that I was heavy, how can a dog feel like it weighs like a 600 pound man, I thought a dog was supposed to weigh at least 100 pounds... Though some dogs can weigh up to 3 to 200 pounds depending on their breeds. This must be a rare breed with lots of muscle mass in them. After all of the heavy lifting and going up the two flights of stairs I made it to my apartment. I took out my key and unlock the door and went inside. I took off my shoes at the vestibule and walked to the living room and sat the injured animal on the couch, but the problem is that the dog had took over the whole couch with its body. I went to the bathroom to my special aid kit out the cabinet so that I can patch the scars all over its body before it get infected. A few hours has past and I was finally done putting the bandages on the huge dog...
