Astray

Running from him was as pointless as running from the moon.

--------------------------------------

I heard it. Long loud howls coming from the woods behind the apartment complex from which I was renting.

He was here. He had found me. I wasn't suprised though it was sooner than I thought. I pulled back the curtains to look out. He was somewhere deep within, his howls only letting his presence be known. I looked up and saw the moon was waxing almost half way full. I knew I didn't have much time.

He was here. He was waiting. He was coming.
