Confusion II

Femi

Blood that's is the only thing I could focus my mind on when I looked at my surroundings...

So much blood...

Fire danced around me as our camp ground was burning to the ground. People were trying to fight or were running around trying to escape for their life, running into the forest only to be torn apart by the monsters around us. These monsters are strange to me, they seem smarter and faster unlike anything I have ever seen in my entire life. I am still trying to remember how I got here, the last thing I remember was that i was pissed at Asher for deceiving me into this trip.

**Flashback**

"Prof please am sorry" I knew he was sorry but I just don't like being lied or misled by people I feel I can trust.

"I know you are sorry, I just don't like being lied to by people that are close to me"

"I have never lied to you Prof" I don't know why people feel not telling someone the whole truth is not the same thing as lying.

"Same thing Asher, you not telling me the whole truth is the same thing as lying. I need to know the whole truth on this trip because you leaving out information can be misleading "

"I understand your point Prof which is why I came here with a peace offering "

" You mean a bribe" this kid, he thinks he is smart.

"Not a bribe but a peace offering"

"Same thing" this is a bribe and I am not going to fall easily for this cheap bribe.

"I don't want to argue about this anymore because I no for a fact that this is a bribe" I wanted to argue but Asher cut me before I could even utter a word. "Here you go, I drove all the way across town to that little cafe you love so much to get it for you so you are welcome " the audacity but i can't even be mad anymore or pretend to be angry. Everybody knows that cakey bakey is my weakness. That little cafe all the way across town is heaven, they make the best of everything.

When I first got into town. I did not know anywhere and I had no one to take me around town I was so bored, one day i decided to check out the the town. I googled the cool spot and I came across cakey bakey cafe I was a little discouraged about the distance but i decided to just check it out and I am so glad I did.

Cakey bakey is everything and more I wish I live there permanently, from the ambiance to the coffee and snacks like donuts, cupcakes, pies, e.t.c. they have great customer service.

Asher get me my favorite, their milky donut.

I was still enjoying my donuts when I felt like someone was staring at me, I turned back but no one was there but I was still having that feeling that someone was watching me.

I looked around the camp but everyone was busy minding their business, gearing up like they have somewhere or an event they want to attend which i find strange because it was already too late to explore the forest or even go for hiking. I really don't like this people they weird me out.

"Asher come here first" I called him over because he busy setting up the tent for us.

"What is it" he asked me.

"Lower your voice" I whispered to him .

"Why are we whispering "

"Look around you " he turned around looking everywhere.

"What are you on about, what is going on" he asked confuse " wait, don't tell me you are scared of ghosts"

" Shut up Asher" I told him but we both ended up laughing our ass off about the ghost stuff.

"On a serious note look around you this people are suppose to be getting undress getting into some comfy clothes but it's the opposite "

" You are right Prof, I just feel like they are getting dressed because of the cold. Some people don't like the cold " I guess he right. I hate the cold myself.

"You are right, you can go back to what you where doing Asher"

I was still feeling uneasy, it was like I was being watched. I looked around the camp but no one was watching me infact they are just minding their business. Yes they are acting weird but it was not coming from them.

It happened all of a sudden, I was just telling Asher to hurry up because I was tired and I wanted to just sleep. Suddenly massive wolves nearly as big as bears appeared from nowhere. The wolves were looking like they are very angry and like they are ready to attack us.

They attacked us, the first person they attacked was like the leader of the group, he made the mistake of pointing a gun at them, when the wolf with brown fur jumped at him, tearing him apart. His limbs was ripped from his body and his throat was torn into.

All I could do was stand there, paralyzed in fear. I don't want to run because I don't know where to run to. I don't want to provoke them by running and I feel like if I run am only going to get lost in the forest.

I watched as men struggled to fight back against the monsters that were killing everyone in sight. I looked around for Asher because I have to think of a way to get him out of here.

**End of Flashback**

The night was shrouded with smoke as fires raged across each tent. Blood soaked the grounds as men were slaughtered.

Why was this happening ? So many people were dying on our side.... Although they had guns and other weapons. They were no match for this wolves or should I say monsters. They looked like wolves but they were huge like insanely huge.

"Professor" I looked around for the voice calling my name, and soon enough I saw Asher pinned down by the same brown wolf that killed the leader of the group. I don't know if I should run towards them.... I can't leave Asher. What am I going to do.
