Chapter 7
The Moon was high with a deep red blood metalizing within it. I ran from the cottage knowing there was nothing my grandma could do for me and knowing the trail was no longer safe. There was no sound of roaring or crying for help on it was perfectly quite with made my heart bound harder inside my chest.
I slow down to a more low-key pase pulling an arrow out from behind up pulling it against the bow, but keeping it lower as a walked watching out for any movement around me. I focus on slowing my heart to put me in a more at ease state knowing the fear I had been feeling wasn't going to help me any. With how quite it was it didn't help me stay in this claim state.
When I turn back to the trail to see a bright light only to see a women wearing a red cap walking towards me. Has she got closer I could make out her blond hair with her blue eyes, "Penelope?"
"Laiya, listen we don't have much time. The beast is coming and he coming for you. You most hide and not let it find you. If it does then a greater horror will come about this land one that will tear anyone apart." She spoke once she got in front of me putting her hands on top of my shoulders.
"Penelope you're alive." I cried wanting to through my bow down and run towards her, but when I saw her eyes grow bigger has she looked behind me the fear I was trying to fight off cast over me. "What's wrong?"
"It knows I'm here, I'm sorry I most go." She said stepping back from me back towards the trail had I could see a tear running down her cheek. "I'm sorry Laiya."
"No Penelope come back." I cried about the time a roar come from behind me causing my heart to jump out of my chest about the same time Penelope disappeared into the trail.
Turning around I saw the creature from all those years ago with midnight dark fur and piercing yellow eyes fixated on me has it let out yet another growl walking gradually to me. Its shape fangs snapping at me which caused me to turn from it and run with all my heart has I dropped my bow and arrow.
Running through the forest and jumping over broken tree tucks has the Beast growling grow closer. I observed behind me to see it was only a few feet behind me. Knowing I wouldn't be able to out run it I knew I had to find a way to get on higher grown were it wouldn't be able to get me. Penelope warning repeated over again in my mind.
Before I was about to fully think of an escape rote my foot caught on a uplifted tree root making me fall to the grown. Flipping around to lock onto the yellow eye beast once again. I wanted to scream but my fear had paralyze me watching it step over me bring it face closer to mine. Closing my eyes I watched till I felt it ripe my apart knowing that it was my time has I felt its teeth glaze across my neck.
Right before I felt it bit down thought it was thrown off me with a load crash following. Opening my eyes and lifting myself up I could see yet another Beast simpler to the one who had been attacking me, but this one seem to protecting me has it engross with the creature in front of it. The only thing I was able to think about is if there was two of the creature how many more could there be.
When I stood I watched had the Beast, who back to me, drug its paws into the ground about the time the one who had been casing me let out a deep growl. Then it jump into the air to go over my protector only to have it jump up in the air and slam the evil beast into the near by tree. The protected beast never turn to look at me as it keep its fixation on it component I took my chance to run away into the quite night air only to wake once again in my bed feeling the strangeness about seeing Penelope then the thought of there being more than one beast out there.
