and listened. The night creatures were moving all around me; the flapping of wings was heard in the sky. The wind whistling its magical sonnet with the trees leaves, howling of wolves far in the distance that sounded more like a plea for something I could not understand and the stomping of some large animals which I did not knew what kind they were. With those sounds inside my ears I put my hands behind my neck and drifted to a worried night sleep.

I woke early in the morning; leaves were covering my body as they fell during the night. The morning dew on my skin felt refreshing. I sat grabbing my knees pulling them close to my chest and remembering where Jeremy wanted me to meet him. I heard rustling to my left and turned my head. When a man weighing no more than an old TV set from 20 th century, a piece of technology where the screen was made from a glassed vacuumed tube, came staggering towards me.
“Please help me.” he said his voice quive ring
I stood up and ran towards him. My only thought was, if he was bitten by Alex, the source of my new adventure. Where was he? I thought and knelt down besides the man where he was.
“Please he is still out there?” he said
“Who ?”
“That man, he, he had blood all over and was growling like a deranged animal, please help me he was chasing me.”
“Where was this” I said as the hunger started speaking to me. I looked up to the rising sun.
“Please do you have a phone?”
“No.” I said looking from where he had appeared some seconds ago.
“What are you doing?” he said his face di storted with fear and weirdness as he looks as I stood and started walking towards the bushes he had appeared some moments ago.
“You’ll be okay” I said as I knew he was not bitten and I disappeared in the bushes tracking Alex not minding the meet with Jer emy. I did not care I had to find Alex fast and then deal with the corpses he had left behind if Jeremy had not done away with them by now.
I heard the screams of the man from the clearing I had left telling me I was crazy, this man was not human he had screamed, If o nly he knew.
I walked for hours looking for the place this man had come from but found nothing. I backed tracked back to the clearing when the faint smell of metal caught my nostrils and I stopped. I looked left and right as the smell came closer. I traded the trail carefully , the idea of been surprised by Alex was overwhelming me. How strong is he? I thought. Another rustling in the bushes this one to my right, the bushes moved, swayed left and right, up and down. The silence was over this new place in the forest, no flapping of wings in the sky no chirping of birds and it was weird the forest is always covered in sound, yet this silence was unnatural for me. I waited. Holding my breath from time to time when in front of me jumped a fawn, a small animal with its brownish fur coat. He looked at me and moved its head down. I let out a breath of relief.
Extending my hand I lured him towards me. It reluctantly came slowly and liked my hand. The hunger started churning inside, growling telling me it’s time for a meal. I looked down towards my stomach and up at the fawn. It blinked with those black beady eyes telling me he was not scared.
“I’m Sorry” I said as I lunged forward sticking my teeth to its necked the blood flowed from my mouth down my throat and the feeling of satisfaction started rising in me. I grabbed the animal by its neck pushing him down, I fought the animal as he kicked and tried to get away, yet there was no sound coming from it. I tore the flesh and in hand full put them in my mouth, eating its meat on a frenzy of satisfaction. I have not taken any flesh for a while now, not since Canyon Diablo. I thought about my last time in Oregon where I had taken down a cult of murderers for a god they believed in as my meal ticket to let the hunger subside.
The baby deer didn’t moved anymore, it took four seconds for its death
