Chapter 7 The hunt
I was awoken from loud screeching outside I quickly stood up out of the Wooden chair to awake Jenniffer. I shook her "Jenniffer wake up" she awoke quickly "Tim what's going on," she asked curiously "their back," I said trying not to frighten her. I then walked to the window to see seven of those nasty creatures running towards the house. One of them lunged onto the house and climbed towards the roof. I started to hear the sound of wood cracking and snapping I then realized that they were tearing through the roof. I opened the front door "run" I yelled we Both ran as fast as we could the creatures ran after us I then heard a deeper screech that was far different than the others I turned to see a larger one with horns protruding from its cheeks making a protective mask. It screeched again and a group of them ran to the left while the others straight towards us. That's when I knew that he was the alpha. The Alpha began to run with the pack I turned and continued to run. I could hear them getting closer and closer I looked to the side to see the other group trying to cut us off. One of them grabbed my leg and tripped me I quickly grabbed the bottle of alcohol opened it and sprayed it into the creatures eyes. It let go and started to scream as it scratched at its eyes. I got back up and started to run again with the others close-at my back. As they got closer I heard a loud Thud one of the creatures soon collapsed. I looked back to see a arrow protruding from the creatures back and the others stopped in their tracks and began running in the opposite direction. Running in fear of something. I heard a woman call out "are yall ok!?" the voice asked I looked around to find the Owner of the strong voice. I soon seen a woman standing on a hill with a bow. She was a tall red haired woman with black war-paint on her face and she was wearing leather hide clothing "yeah umm thx for the help" I replied with great curiosity. The woman began to approach us as she got closer I could see a scar on her face that looked as if she had been struck in the face by a metal rake. When she got to us she just looked at us examining every square inch of our bodies "So you went the Trap houses" she said with a snarky voice I replied "umm what do you mean trap houses?" she just looked at me with a curious face "The screechers use them for their hunting grounds.. You seemed to piss the alpha off-to" she started to laugh. She then invited us to go home with her Me and Jennifer just looked at each-other and agreed it would be a good idea as she just saved our lives.
