Soaked clothes, bloody wounds and searing pain everywhere was all Ally could concentrate on, her dads protective hand holding her own with an iron grip

The six survivors trudged their way through the thick foliage in a slow jog, they were all physically and mentally exhausted

Ally wanted nothing more than to be back home in her bed, she liked to think all of this was just a horrible dream, a nightmare... but it wasn't
The sickening reality was always creeping round the corner.


They reached the edge of the trees and came across a sprawling patch of long grass, the greenery was almost as tall as Ally
The tips of the grass just grazing her cheekbones

Jack was pulling Ally along beside him when she suddenly stumbled forward with a loud thump
"Hey, you alright?" Jack asked, pulling his daughter back to her feet

She looked down, ignoring her father's question and began searching for what'd caused her to trip
She didn't have to look very far however, it was a dirty black boot?

"What is that?" Kelly asked from behind her father's back, she was almost catatonic with fear
"It's somebody's boot" Ally said, frazzled by her discovery
As she turned it over to look at the top of the piece of footing, she tossed it away in shock

"What's the matter!?" Jack asked, he was concerned by her downright disgusted expression, hands clapped against her mouth to prevent sour bile from projecting all of the place

Jack looked down at the boot that landed right side up and immediately turned away with a noticeable grimace
"There's a foot still inside" Jack muttered, Kelly began to shake as her grip on Malcolm's waist grew tighter
"Way to go, genius" Malcom said sarcastically

Jack grew irritated by the mathematician's response
"She's seen a lot worse and now your blaming me for saying there was a fucking foot inside!" Jack vented

Malcom was about to respond, but a scream in the distance silenced him
Then came another, only this time... it was different

The first scream was most certainly a man screaming for his life, but the second sounded different
It was much higher in pitch yet deeper at the same time, it oddly sounded familiar to Ally and Malcom

Ally took a few steps forward to get a better listen if the sound persisted
"What is it Ally-Cat?" Jack asked, his voice lowered to a moderate whisper.


Ally didn't answer, instead she continued to listen intently

Then she heard it

A low, guttural growl

A growl that had plagued her nightmares for more than four years
Her heart began to race as her eyes grew wide, her breaths beginning to tremble as it became harder and harder to breathe

A growl that had plagued her nightmares for more than four years Her heart began to race as her eyes grew wide, her breaths beginning to tremble as it became harder and harder to breathe
