The Haunted


A shadow skirts the Sunset Shrine.

Hard sharp blue eyes watch from the brush for any signs of life.

Leaves flutter and float across the grounds, all is quiet.

The creature stalks over the pave stones like a ghost, eyes glowing dimly.

The Tree of Ages looms above.

Casting a shadow over the grounds and cloaking the creature in darkness.

A full moon looms in the clouds above it making the shadows even stronger.

A wind blows the branches into a sway, cracking and groaning.

The creature's ears twitch this way and that.

Now only lengths away from it's pray it stills at the sound of a snap.

Ears spinning this way and that,

glowing eyes darting as a small growl passes through gleaming white fangs and lifted lips.

The wind grows stronger and clouds cover the moon,

killing what light was left.

When the clouds cleared the creature was gone,

leaving no signs of its existence.


Always looking for a beta. So feel free to drop me a note if you would like to help. I hope you enjoy this. I'm also always a fan of art for my stories. ;)
