The Emerald House

No, it was not Sebastian, but a monster!

When it rushed to my front, I waved the baseball club and hit it on the head.

Just as I was about to hit it, it suddenly caught my baseball club.

It was so strong that I couldn't compete with it. The club was snatched away by it.

The next second, it grabbed my neck and lifted me up.

I couldn't breathe. I tried my best to kick it, but I couldn't move it at all.

The skin on its face was covered with holes, and countless grass sticks came out from it. Its eyes were yellow and flashing with an unusually fierce light.

"Sebastian!" I gave up struggling and called Sebastian's name with my only strength.

It seemed to hear my call. Then it shook its head and stared at me, trying to recognize me.

"I'm Charlie. Wake up..." I shouted excitedly.

A look of struggling appeared on its scary face, and then it suddenly loosened its hand, held its head, and let out a beast's howl.
