The stalking begins
[Insert disclaimer here.] Three days after the first nightmare began Diego had gotten about ten hours of sleep total, and worse yet he was positive he kept seeing eyes, glowing a yellow-green color, that stared at him all night. As the days went by the more eyes he saw, and the times he saw them increased.
On the hill about a half-mile from Diego's camping spot four shadowy figures stared down at him. "I'm so hungry" one said.
"Zeke, chew on your foot." Oscar rolled his eyes again He was starving to but he didn't get to complain.
One of the figures interrupted Lenny before he could say something "No one touches the mammoth or the sloth. Not until Diego's worthless corpse is at my feet."
"But, what will we eat?" Zeke said, still twitching madly.
"You can have his friends, but I want Diego. I'll eat the traitor for what he did!" The shadowy Saber said. Wisely nobody objected to him eating their former comrade.
"What's our plan?" Oscar asked, the figure only gave a smile that would send even the greatest predators on the planet running for their lives.
The next morning Manny was up first. "Note to self: Never sleep on a rock. Lousy cramps." He continued muttering as he walked over to where Diego laid on his side. His eyes were bloodshot and noticeable dark circles were forming under his eyes
"You awake big guy?" the concern in his voice was apparent.
"I haven't slept for three days" Was Diego's tired reply.
"Well I hate to add to your problems but That leaf needs to be changed with the spare we brought." Diego gave no come back as Manny got one of the other two that he stole from the humans.
"Judging by how you acted when we put the first one on this will hurt.a lot."
"Oh joy of joys"
Sid continued snoring loudly as Diego dug his claws into the ground when Manny applied the pressure on the leaf so it would stick to the wound. After Diego's verbal outburst, of words this author refuses to repeat, Diego threw a rock at Sid to wake him up as he was hoisted onto Manny's back. After a long verbal fight over why Sid couldn't ride on Manny's back, the group continued on there way.
Later that night a shadow walks up to the discarded leaf with the medicine and sniffs the dried blood. He growls and uses his claws to shred the leaf. He calls the pack and informs them of one thing. "Now," He says dangerously "The true hunt begins." He laughs quietly as his pack begins to quietly follow Diego.
I can taste his fear from here He thinks to himself as he moves into a hunting position. First we will drive him insane, then we shall kill his friends, and then we shall slowly kill him over the course of several days, and then when his spirit and every bone in his worthless hide has been broken, I will eat him alive, slowly. Ha ha ha ha ha. Ah It's the simple things in life you treasure.
Who is this mysterious killer? Will Diego go insane? Will Diego's friends be killed Will I ever shut up? Watch for the next chapter of [insert dramatic music] The Day After!
