The Horde

I fell asleep on the tree, I thankfully tied myself to the tree and luckily didn't fall, thanks to the old bartender's advice on tree sleeping. However I have much bigger issues now, there are people everywhere and they are shouting something.

"Kill that demon!"

"Kill it with fire!"

"Stone it!"

"Drag it behind a carriage!"

Ok so they are all pointing to the center of the field, and the entire field is full of them! So they want to kill some demon, well I don't think they noticed me yet.

Looking to the center, I noticed men stomping the floor. Wait, are they stomping on the so called demon. That looks like a painful way to die.

Suddenly the men scream out, and a figure jumps out. The whole crowd is taken aback and a space is formed. Suddenly I can see it, a body that is burning and covered in foot prints and beaten.

"Throw stones at it, don't get near it!

"Throw your shoes if you don't have a stone!"

Suddenly once the crowd heard the two voices they started pelting her, I could see it was female by the dress and somewhat remaining body. Stones, shoes, and sometimes even a pocket knife was thrown at the clearing in the field.

At first she tried running out of the spot but, then a rock hit her head. It was more of a Boulder then rock, but it stopped her immediately. The body that fell was pelted in rocks and shoes, I tried to look away but my curiosity forced me back.

Screams and shouts filled my ears, I could hear them everywhere. Looking around I could see people on the buildings and on the roofs, they are everywhere!

Some men stood up from those that got hit before, and they charged the demon. The crowd still continued throwing and didn't care. The men seemingly possessed by hate charged forward, and one carrying a butcher knife was in the lead.

A rock hit one of the men and killed him, his head smashed apart by a rock thrown by the crowd. That rock was bigger than his head, how in the world did they throw something that big!
