I just own mine.
"Sightings of big cat's have been reported in Terra Beothuk last night. Police say it's nothing to be worried about yet, but hunter's are already getting their traps out there. Here's Jim Covay with the latest.." the T.V blared, while I ate my breakfast, my eyes boring into the television not really paying attention to what was on it.
"Dude, that's insane" my roommate, Evana voiced.
"Yeah, and you know how this towns going to act? The same way something big happens. Their gonna hunt for those cats themselves and someones gonna get hurt" I stated.
"Yeah, God, this town is so boring"
As the news continued with it's interesting breaking news, silence fell between the two roommates.
"Anyways", Evana got off the couch and turned off the t.v, "I have to get to work" With that she left the little apartment.
When I finished getting ready, I grabbed my keys and bag and made my way out to my car. I looked up to the sky and noticed the clouds getting darker.
Well nothing new there, I sighed, it always rains here.
When I unlocked my car door, my gut suddenly retched with fear and the hair on body stood on end.
Something was watching me.
I felt a cold rush of air run past me and as soon as I turned around, my legs gave way and I landed on the ground with a thud.
There stood my brother Jaxon, staring at my like I had gone deranged.
"Fuck, what are you doing here?" I collected myself from the ground and stood up, anger written across my face.
"Uh you told me to come by today so I can fix your sink" his voice rising in the end as if it were a question rather then answer.
"Humph, well you didn't need to scare me, and where the hell did you come from anyway I don't see your damn car around?"
"I decided to run here, you know, workin' out for tha ladies" his eyebrows wiggled.
".Ew." I quickly stated and turned around to open my car door, "Anyways, have fun.. And this time would you please NOT snoop around my room OR Evana's because you CLEARLY did not understand the concept of "I'll call the cops, Jackass!" God, why must you be such an imbecile!" I said stepping into my car and taking off down the road.
Now, I know I must seem like a complete bitch and maybe my mouth does run away with my mind a little too fast but at least I'm straight-forward. It's probably one of the many qualities that people seem to be missing these days. Pft, that and brains also NOT known as my brother.
As I was driving down the highway on route 254, my usual route to get to work, I noticed the clouds becoming increasingly darker.
I quickly speed up, going slightly over the speed limit.
Clap.
Oh Shit.
See this is the part in movies where the girls car breaks down in the middle of the night and shes stranded in the middle of nowhere with a huge forest surrounding her and being the stupid girl she is, gets out of the car to find help, because there is never any service on her cell phone, and then she ends up being either picked up by some kook or end up lost in the woods.
Well, this was kinda like that situation, except it was daytime and I was only 10 minutes out of town, plus my cellphone actually worked.
"What?" My brother answered.
"Ugh, that freaky tire we had to fix last week finally gave out"
"Where are you?"
"Just outside of town on route 254"
"Be there in 15"
I sighed as I waited, fiddling with my old fashioned radio, as the static noise filled in the car, then looked up as a single drop of rain, landed upon my window and gracefully slid down.
Something appeared beyond the raindrop, and as I leaned over to get a better look, It had come upon the road.
A cat. And not just any cat, a big cat, with black and yellow dots upon its body.
So, this is what everyone was talking about.
Interest peaked upon my face as I unbuckled my seat belt and opened my door.
Something happened, because within a 2 second period, the whole atmosphere changed..
First, I was in my car,
And now, I was in front of it,
Somehow and someway,
Prey to the Predator.
R&R Love? :)
