The Leaping Shadow
Jack grumbling about their situation but also the circumstances of the beat-up Chris.
"Eric did you not see that shit again" ask Jack to his fellow woodcutter.
"None! Mate that coward just runs for his life after the beating" Eric says with sinister laden words.
Jack not further pursuing the annoying chat and the hostility spoken.
"Where are Theo and Edgar! are they coming back because we need some break" jack reply
"Well, they will come! If not, I'm going slap their arse for ditching us"
The two-man not knowing of a dark presence lurking in the shadows that would put them down within a second.
-
"Sir Chris We have detected a mutant variation just outside where the woodwork is done"
"On what level is that? Alex!" disturbed by this coincidence.
"It is of level 5, the possibility for elevation is 50%"
"So, on what direction is it coming from" question in worry
"It is hiding in the bushes with men working"
Chris knows that Mister Red ford is working in there and also the group of bastards.
"Is a person with bearded red hair can be seen in this radar of yours'"
"No, sir Chris only the energy levels are what I can read. It needs to be upgraded to perform face recognition and auto location"
Chris remunerating the reality that nothing goes as plan.
"Alex prepare to aim at the beast until I command to shoot!"
"Yes! Sir Chris"
-
The group of bastards is working in their duty. As one of them was called by nature.
"Jack! Nature is calling me. Wait for the two I will come back immediately" Eric says while going to a tree hidden to the view of Jack.
"OK! And be fast about it. No one's waiting for someone to shit the whole day" jokingly said by Jack
"You bastard. I will tell Melissa that you are a eunuch" laughing as he runs away quickly. To not be rebutted by jack.
"Who is a eunuch! Only you have a small dick" he thought, watching the running figure of eric in the woods.
-
Eric found the right spot to release the pent-up pressure in his lower organ.
Exhaling the air" Ahhh what a nice day to bang some chick after work"
In his relaxed mood, the shadow crawls slowly behind him and a silent growl can be heard.
"Growl!"
Eric sensing something shouts in panic as his fountain spray erratically.
"Who is that! Show yourself coward" taking a knife hidden under his shirt strap to his body." Hey, shit! Face me!"
Looking at every direction with his pants unzip and his organ flailing. He sees no point saving it when someone growl on his perimeter.
The scary silence and swaying of trees. The leaves fell gently and a small amount of light penetrating the ground"
"Hey Man! is that you Jack. Do not prank me again are you trying to brag about how scared I am" disturb since no one answers and the feeling of an unknown glaring at him without notice.
He turns back and a shadow suddenly pounces on him. Swiping its claws to his lower organ.
"AHHHH!" seeing his organ flew high then landing next to him as he stumbles back. The horror and pain invade his system. Looking at the monster.
"A mutant dark panther! What is it doing here" face pale white and his hands' spasm from the sheer understanding of the beast.
It is the height of a rhinoceros and a body riddled with muscles, a sharp front tooth like a saber tooth tiger and skin painted in a color darker than black and eyes that can see the depths of one soul.
"Roar!" the panther seems happy by its prey. It walks closer until it is only a breath away from the said person.
"AHHHH" Eric crosses its arms to defend as the panther mauled him alive.
-
At this time Jack hears a scream from his supposed friend eric.
"What is that! Did something happen to eric" holding the axe he runs in alarm towards Eric's direction.
-
"Sir, Chris the beast is moving it has eaten a human"
Chris not knowing what happened is flabbergasted by this info.
"How many and why can you know about it?" he questions
"Sir, there are energy signatures for every living thing, and depending on the pulsing energy we can know which is dead or alive"
"So, could you identify Mister Red ford and his workers" Chris seems to find a solution.
"Yes, sir! They can be classified from their levels but it might be difficult if they have the same energy frequency due to having the equal strength"
"All right! Mister Red ford is a lumberjack and should be higher level than the others in this village and detect if there are others outside the village"
"Yes! Sir Chris"
The race between life and death is approaching while others are occupied in their craft. A disaster comes unnoticed.
