Okay my version of Little Red Riding Hood. Enjoy!
Oh and just incase there is some weird company that may actually own Red Riding Hood I only own this story...wow i feel stupid.
The trees rustled overhead, making the branches dance once more and sending leaves cascading down to the soft forest floor, adding more to the ever growing piles of autumn leaves.
A young girl sat in the middle of a fallen tree humming a soft lullaby.
Twigs snapped behind her as a creature emerged from the darkness. Stepping towards the girl it gave a low snarl. She gasped and turned quickly around. The beast stood up on its two legs, snarling. She slowly stepped back tripping over a root. The creature stepped closer, saliva dripping from a quickly morphing mouth.
"You"! The beast shouted.
Quickly lunging for her throat it leapt into the air. The girl dove to the ground in hopes to avoid the were-beast. But it changed course in midair and dug its jaws into the soft pale skin of her neck.
A hunter stepped out of the trees with a crossbow and quickly shot the man-beast into the heart killing him in seconds, though not for the girl who lay close to death on the ground. A trail of red began to leak down and around her head. Almost like a bloody halo. As the girl lay on the ground pooling in her own blood, a doctor knelt next to her pressing cloth next to the neck wound.
While the village leader dropped a bag of gold into the hunters waiting hands, slipping it into one of his many pockets he nodded and walked off content in his handiwork.
Meanwhile the girl started shedding tears, though everyone expected them to be for the current pain coursing through her body, threatening to break her own soul. The tears were actually for a far less selfish reason as pain.
While a bystander put a white sheet over the beast and wrapped it up to take it away, the girl shuddered to take a breath as the sheet grew redder and redder in blood.
The doctor picked her up and took her back to the village for the last glimpse of her parents, following the trail of blood droplets like breads crumbs.
Don't worry this isn't the only chapter. We still have question to fill out in this story.
