Chapter Twenty-Four: The Big Bad
Wolves
Thunk!
Something
big hit the carriage from the left and it whined in protest. The wheels temporarily lifted off the ground,
causing everyone inside to crash against the right wall. A screech escaped Annabelle as she watched
two large hairy man-monsters smash into the right side of the carriage. Like a ship fighting the ocean waves, the
carriage rocked to the left. The horses
bucked and neighed in panic as the four werewolves attacked. She flinched as their sharp claws scratched
down the sides of the carriage.
The
slobbering snout-like face of one of their attackers glared in the window. Covered in thick black fur with a red D
shaped scar cut into his left breast, the strange beast-man snapped at
Annabelle. In a blur of white, Eliza was
at the window. She punched the werewolf
with enough power to smash a piano. The
beast fell to the earth and immediately sprung back to its elongated clawed
feet.
Annabelle
couldn’t resist the temptation to watch out the window. She marveled at the incredible speed the
creature had on two legs as it ran beside the carriage. It appeared to be seven-feet tall. Another attacker began to pull itself along
the carriage. Built similarly to the
black one, it was covered in brown fur.
The monster growled as Annabelle pulled back the quilt.
She
scrunched her nose as the beast’s musky smell assaulted her. Long pointed claws reached through the
window. Any minute the werewolf would
pull itself inside and begin its campaign of murder.
