I walked down to the livingroom, it was allmost dark outside and I couldn't see my parents anywhere.
- Mom? Dad?
I missed a step and fell hard on the floor. The voice stopped and I held my breath. I closed my eyes and heard footsteps coming closer.
- Did you get hurt, son?
- My knee hurt, I sobbed.
- Come here. My father was calm and lifted me up and carried me to the kitchen and told my mother to take the first-aid kit to the kitchen. He placed me on the table and pulled my dirty pants up so he could see the cut.
- Here, my mom said.
After he had taken care of me I jumped down and took my book and sat down on the floor. My dad took a cup pf coffie and my mom sat down with her knitting. The darkness fell outside and I was cought in my book. Suddendly I felt something was wrong.
- Dad, something's wrong…
- Wh…?
My dad never hade the time to ask his question because in that very moment the door burst open and dozens of men in black hooded cloaks and masks came rushing in. I threw my book on tha floor and rushed on my feet as my mother fell to the floor, hit by the killing curse. My father punched one of the hooded men and kicked another.
- RUN! RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!
- But, dad!
- RUN!
I ran to the frontdoor but stopped quickly as I saw another dozen of blackcloaked men. A hand gripped me and I started to kick and punch.
- LET ME GO YOU MONKEY!
- Hehe, I think the dark lord will have a good go with you, his captor said in his ear.
Mycaptor, a robust man, waved with his wand and said an incantation and ropes band itself 'round my wrists. I looked around for an escape but didn't see any. Suddenly a large wolf came forward me and I just then realized: It was full moon, and a werewolf was right infront of me. I gasped and my captor sniggered.
- No, please, don't, I begged.
- Oh, yes, you will, boy.
My captor pushed me forward the beast and I could see it moving torwards me, eyes shining like the moon above us. I stumbled up to my feet and looked around, seeing an escape. Running the fastest I could, I ran to the forest, with my hands tied up it was difficult. I heard the beast run set after me and just as I came to the outside of the forest I felt a big paw slam me to the ground. I felt the animal land on my back. I started to panick and I thougth my life was about to end right there in that very minute. I screamed as the beasts teeth punktured my bare skin in the neck. I tried to scream but no words would leave my lips. I tried desperatley to break free, but the beast was to strong for a little boy. I was just about to give up when the beast on my back was roughly pulled away from me. I rolled over on my side and saw a blurry figure fight the beast.
After only a few minutes, the beast fled into the forest again and the figure came forward to me. It bent before me and I saw the face of a man. He picked me up and before everything went black, I manage to say two words.
- Thank you.
The man looked down on me and smiled with tears in his eyes.
- You're welcome, son. Everything is gonna be all right now. I promise…
