Less than a mile away from safety I heard something that will haunt me every time I close my eyes. For what sounded like deep in the heart of the forest, came a bloodthirsty howl. One I have heard from the protection of my bedroom window, faint but still there. Now, tonight, it's all I could hear. The dreadful sound ringing through my ears nonstop. Trying to get me to be afraid, to make the hunt shorter for them. I will not give up, I have to try.
