W-what was that?

The stomping grew louder and Harry grab my hand. "Lucinda! Faster!" He yells and pulls me with him. I tried to keep up with his fast steps, but it just resulted me tripping on my feet.

Harry suddenly scoops me up, bridal style, and we hid behind a huge tree. I peeked out to see a herd of deers running.

Did they cause the stomping sounds?

"Harry, what is-"

"Shh!" He silence me, putting a clasped hand over my mouth and he looks me in the eye.

"Don't speak unless I tell you to, okay? Just be quite here and we'll live."

Live? What the fuck is going on?! I opened my mouth to argue with him but his eyes turned black, back to the black empty eyes, and I just remained silent.

The stomping sounds was gone, and all that could be heard was the beating of my heart. I held my breath when I heard something snort.

Harry begins to set ne down on the forest floor, which confused me. "Stay here, run when I tell you to, and don't bother looking back, okay." He wasn't asking me, he was telling me.

"W-what? Why? Harry, where are you going?" I ask, he points something behind me, which is behind the tree.

I cautiously peeked out, even though I have a blurry sight, there, a deer was lying on the ground. Dead. It's blood was begining to stain the ground.

And something sharp was clawing it's skin. It looked like sharp claws of a bird. I tried to get a better look at what it was, when it sharply turned around.

It was a ugly creature, a face of a demon, it's mouth filled with long sharp teeth, wings of a bat, and claws. It looked demonic, like Harry, but this one is over the top.

I gasp and hid behind the tree again, and turn to Harry.

"What are we going to do? That thing is going to kill us if we get out of our hiding place."

"That's why I'm gonna try distracting it so you could run."

"But what about you?" I can't help but question. He stills for a moment before he inhales sharply.

"I'll be fine, just don't be concern about me." Was I? Was I concern? Yes, because this man/ghost here help me, even though I still hated him for what he has done.

"No, y-you can't. You know you don't have a chance. You know!" I stammered, but he silenced me again.

"I'll just live, you can't kill what's already dead." He hisses, and grabs my chin. "When I tell you to run. Run. Don't think twice. Just run."

"B-but..."

I felt something soft and cold on my forehead. It made me shut my mouth up. Harry's lips were against my forehead, and I stopped breathing.

What the hell?

I felt, numb and strucked at the same time, and it felt undescribable, but just when it came, it quickly disappeared. The next thing I knew, Harry disappeared in front of me into a thick dark smoke.

I peeked out the tree to see the creature move it's head. But it wasn't facing me, thank God, it was facing Harry.

The creature stopped eating the flesh of the deer and advert all it's focus on the demon in front of it.

My breath stopped when the creature spread it's wings and soar high up, but not high enough to see me.

It soared down to grab Harry with it's claws, but just in time, Harry became thick clouds of smoke again. The creature screeched, turning it's head everywhere, hoping to find it's enemy.

"Looking for me?!" I hear Harry yell, suddenly behind the creature's back, striking his knife on it's flesh. The creature cried out and tried to use it's beak to get Harry off it's back.

"Harry!" I yelled when one of the claws scarred his arm.

"Run!" He yell, striking the creature over and over, "Run Lucinda! Run!"

And I did.

It was like slow motion, running away from the creature, hearing it let out a screech again. Honestly, that thing is made from the hands of Hades.

I ran and ran, not stopping, not knowing where to go. I tripped a few times, my blurry vision became even more of a blur when I ran.

But I never stopped, Harry didn't tell me when to. I just ran.

That was when I ran into a meadow. No trees, only unending grass growing. The sky was gray, not a small glimpse of the sun. I stopped running, not knowing where to go.

I am out of the forest, who knows what's to come if I cross this meadow of grass and what's waiting for me there. Death? More of those creatures? What?!

I suddenly heard wings flapping, I looked up to see one of those creatures, and I screamed bloody murder. It swooped down, and I fell to the ground, the creature trapping me with it's claws, screeching at my face, it's beak opened, as if to swallow me.

Tears streamed down my face, is this the end of me? Dying in the hands of this demonic creature?

The creature looked at me with hawk-like eyes, making me look back at it. It stopped moving, and I just tried to remain calm as possible.

What will this Satanic creature do to me? Will it eat humans?

Of course it will! It even ate a deer, it likes flesh! My head screams at me and I wanna cry in pure maddness right now.

The creature backed off a bit, removing it's claws, freeing me. I let out a small gasp and stood up quickly. The creature lowered it's head. What the hell is it doing?

Slowly, I lift my hand up, and carefully reach it's huge head. It snorted making me flich my hand away a bit, but proceed anyways.

I finally touched it's head, it was feathery and soft. How can this demonic creature have soft feathers? Even though it had sharp thorns on it's side. The creature purred, making me gasp in surprise and let a small giggle out. I felt a pair of eyes watching me, but I didn't care.

The creature suddenly stand tall, making me cower. It open it's wings and flew up, and away. I just watched as it flew higher and higher and disappeared into the clouds.

"Lucinda!"

I sharply turn around to be face to face with an angry Harry. This cannot be good.

"What the fuck was that?!"
