It was dark and cold as I sat on a bench in central park. I checked  the time on my watch. 3 a.m. All i could focus on was a flickering light pole in the distance as it's dull yellow beams flicked on and off. I still didn't understand why this is such a "perfect meeting place" especially at this hour of the night. I had been here for half an hour waiting. Where was she? It was then something caught my eye. The darkness is moving, but that wasn't possible... right? Then I saw it start to emerge from the shadows. Yet it wan't doing just that. It was the shadows! Forming into a hound like creature. As I watched it became a hound like  creature with five inch long canine's with thick jet black hair. Then it became a completely solid form, and it lunged.
