Monster inside

The Monster in the Shadows

Tord placed his cold hands in his hoodie pockets after extinguishing his cigar onto the pavement of the sidewalk,walking back inside he was deep into his thoughts when he heard a banging on the door and walls of Tom's and his room.He proceeded with caution as he got close to the door as the noises suddenly stopped. Tord knew it would be stupid to enter the room after that but, he wanted to make sure tom was at least alright.Leaning down he grabbed the handle of the door shakingly opening to see nothing but darkness. ¨T-Tom? oi bud is everyting ok in here?¨ Tord was definitely scared he tried to not show it but the off putting sense of danger alerted his mind only to think the worst.Taking a careful step inside he noticed claw marks on the walls and the bed having fresh scratches,the material ripped by something a lot larger than the small Norwegian. Tord couldn't  help it,having no weapons at hand the only response flowing through his brain was to get the ABSOLUTE HELL OUTTA THERE! Of course he ignored that feeling gulping down his courage as much as he could. ¨H-hey T-Tomas heh...dis iz not funny.¨Tord trembled as his glace caught sight of a creature in the dark,now hearing the faint sound of growling.He winced in place not wanting to move from his position he reached for the nearest thing to hold his balance,he was about to faint from not breathing trying to remain still not wanting to disturb whatever was lurking in the darkness before him.He breathed slowly but as soon as he exhaled the monster in the shadows leaped straight from where it was hidden right at Tord. He fell to the ground with a smack groggy from the force of the floor to his head,when he came to the Monster was revealed ,its thick coat of a dark scaly and furred body straight up to its gaping angry maw dripping a icky black ooze into a never ending shadowy abyss,its eyes soul less and and hallow the same inky darkness present,the Beast had two Protruding horns of the same color as its body but its heavy claws the forced Tord to the floor was of opaque sold ooze slick but not sticky. Tord wanted to scream but he couldn't find his voice staring at this massive Creature that could snap him in half with the force of its claws like that of a twig.The only thoughts that circled Tord now was that this would be it, this monster that trapped him will easily finish him off ,and he couldn't do a thing about it but stare death straight into its deep soul less eyes.
