A ninth child- but no Digivice.Gazimon
Discalimer- I do not own Digimon or anything to do with it.
As I said before there will be no romance but lots of action. Younger readers may not like the last paragraph or they may really like it. Tell me.
Monocromon looked up, as the two Gotsumon walked in with a human. "Master look what we found!" "Is it a Digi-destined?" Susan shivered. Those were the were the words that the wolf thing had called her. "Its probably the eighth child." "Human girl, do you have a Digivice?" "What's a Digivice?" Monocromon sighed. "You two, were are the others you were supposed to rescue?" The two Gotsumon got into a lengthy recital about things called Loupmon. Susan guessed this must be the name of the wolf thing. Loup meant wolf in French, so it was logical. She looked around the room. It was fashioned out of a cave with torches of fire placed in the walls. There were maps and pictures scattered all over the floor. She wondered about this for a few minutes before looking back at Monocromon. He looked a bit like a Triceratops of old except he only one horn. He stood on all four feet so she could see there was no way he could use a table. Looking up again she saw him dismiss the two rock things she now knew where called Gotsumon. Monocromon was looking at her again strangely. He felt sorry for the small female human who seemed out of place. Also he was picking up something strange about her that made him curious. "Excuse me, ehh … sir." she felt weird saying this to an animal. "Are there any other humans here?" "Well other than the other Digi-destined no" "What?" He stared at her again. "You don't really know anything do you?" Not giving her a chance to answer he continued. "You are now in a place called the Digital world. I assume you were in the human world before." Susan listened beginning to feel cold though it was nothing to do with the temperature. Trying to keep the nervousness out of her voice and failing miserably she asked "You talk as if it is a different place altogether." "It is. I'm not really sure how it came to be created but alongside the human world is a place called the Digital World. It is not a different planet but more like… something along side. But I'm not really sure. Anyway what is important is that you are no longer in human civilisation. This world is inhabited by animals or monsters called Digimon, like myself. Normally we are not able to get into the human world and the same for you. But recently evil has come here. I thing you saw one of the Loupmon. They are a new breed of Digimon and they have taken over. I not too sure about the prophecy but eight children supposed to come and save the Digiworld. A couple of months ago seven children defeated Devimon here when he was trying to take over the Digital World. At the moment there about here with their Digimon. Your best chance to escape might be with them." Susan's head was wiring trying to take in all the information. "Yes, I think I would like to meet them." Monocromon sighed again. "So would I. At the moment I am trying to fight against them using Guerrilla warfare. But it isn't working." Susan looked back at him. She was having strange thoughts. She thought that she would be anxious to get back home but she wasn't that much. "Some of my men saw some of them pacing close to here. I think I might go with you and talk to them." She nodded, though she was a bit nervous walking with him she knew it would be the safe thing to do. He stood up. "Lets go." "Are we going immediately?" "Well not immediately. I need to get ready but we should be ready in a couple of hours. You look tired you should take this time to get some rest." They walked out of the cave. Below them Susan saw all of the rebels doing different tasks about the system of caves. Some of them were fashioning weapons while others were training themselves against bits of wood. He pointed towards a small cave over across a bridge. Most of the babies are over there, you can rest with them. Susan walked over and into the cave. Inside it was quite dark. Feeling outwards with her feet she made her way into the cave. Quite often she touched something soft, immediately retracting her feet. Finally she found a free space against a wall. Though it was too dark to see anything but she could her many soft breaths around her. These comforted her. As she was laying her head down she heard some soft movements towards her. Staring though the dark she saw that it was one of the baby Digimon. It was small and furry with three tails. "Hallo, are you new here?" Susan smiled at it. "No I'm only here to sleep for an hour or two. Then I'm leaving." "Well, could I sleep with you until then. I can't get to sleep unless someone is up with me and everyone else is asleep." "Sure." The small creature hopped over to her while she lay down. Minutes later they were both asleep.
Kabuterimon had given out an hour or two before so Izzy and Kari had been forced to walk. From the air they had seen a small campfire which they hoped was Matt's group. The darkness had left an hour or two before revealing another hot day. Both children had got no sleep on Kabuterimon and they were exhausted from sleep loss. Their walk through the forest was much impeded by all the tree's and ditches and bushes. Both were already scratched up quite a bit from falling into bramble bushes. As crested another slight hill Kari sat down. The small eight year old was panting and the sweat was pouring down her face. "I… can't go… much more." Izzy legs were also going to give out soon and he felt more wary than he had ever felt before. "I think… that it would be safe to assume…. that a rest would be more ….advantageous to us …. than to continue." Tentamon pointed over to a large tree they could barely see. It was by a running river. Gatomon's eyes widened at the sight of this. "We could lose our scent here." All four dipped in the river as to lose their scent but only put their legs in as they couldn't risk hypothermia. From the river Tentamon and Gatomon jumped into the tree and then helped their partners up. Izzy found it particularly hard to get up as he had never climbed a tree before. It was while Tentamon was pulling him up than his hand slipped. Suddenly he was hanging only by one hand on a branch. Both his legs slipped a well. It wasn't that he was particularly high, his feet were only inches off the ground. But in the Distance he could hear movement and he could guess that it was the Loupmon. If his feet touched the ground they would be able to scent him and from there it would only be seconds before they would be caught. All these thoughts ran though the young boys head as he held on with one hand. He tried to reach his other hand up and grab the had but it slipped. Gatomon grabbed his hand in her paw and pulled. Izzy was surprised at her strength before remembering that she was a champion. Both children and their Digimon placed themselves in the middle of the tree behind as many leaves as possible. Fourteen Loupmon strode out into the forest clearing. In the dim light of early morning it was hard to see them. They moved on out of their view. "I think we should take this time to get as much sleep as possible. Matt and the others will still probably be asleep as well." Izzy looked over to see how the others took this, but all three were already asleep. Izzy sighed and debated about setting the alarm on his watch but he evidentially decided that it was more risky than it was worth. Closing his eyes he lay back against the tree. Seconds later he was also asleep.
"Its up this way." Monocromon pointed. Susan had been woken only minutes previously and she was still trying to adjust. In the light of the cave she checked again for cuts. She was mystified about the why she couldn't find them. Her shirt was still stained with blood, evidence that she hadn't dreamed any of it. When she first woke she was almost sure that it had to be a nightmare. She didn't see strange animals with the ability to talk. But nothing had changed so she decided it must all be true. The most important thing she knew she had to do was meet these other kids, and keep herself away from the wolf- thing, Loupmon or something? She hadn't liked the look in his eyes. Trying to forget about him she turned back to Monocromon. They started to walk when they heard a disturbance behind them. Through the cave entrance they saw black wolf like figures running toward the opening. "Close the door!" Susan stood behind Monocromon, she decided that he would be the safest thing to be near. Two Gotsumon managed to push the large boulder blocking the entrance. "That was lucky." Monocromon sighed. They could hear the sound of the Loupmon outside the door. "That won't hold them for long, we have to get out of here. Everyone started to run towards the large Dino Digimon including the guards. This was big mistake. The two Gotsumon who had escorted Susan ran to the door and pushed the stone out of the way. Instantly the Loupmon poured through. "Traitors!!" After uttering this Monocromon turned to Susan. The little girls eyes were wide and scared. "Run, the door is over that way. I'll try and hold them off." Susan turned to him "But…" she started. "There is no time. You are the eighth Digi-destined. Its is important that you get to the others. He nudged her and Susan started to run. Looking up L2 saw her running. He smiled. He would enjoy the hunt, but first they would have to crush all the resistance here. Monocromon came across the two traitors. They tried to attack them but he silenced with Volcanic Strike, his special attack. "Why, sons, why did you do this?" "Were you not ever suspicious about how easily we were able to get the prisoners or escape father." "Why did you save the Digi-destined from the Loupmon." "We would have had to give her to L2, the fool would have claimed responsibility to getting her. This way we get the credit." "A fool am I" They turned round to see the scared face of L2. His electric attack surged forward towards them. "No!" Monocromon jumped in the way of it. Instead of letting up L2 turned up the heat, frying Monocromon. He turned to his sons. "Why?" was all he could ask before his eye closed. He collapsed onto the ground. "Father!!" Both Gotsumon jumped at L2. He waited for a second until they were inches from him before acting. With unbelievable speed he leaped over them turning in the air slashing at their necks. The veins in the back of their necks split spraying blood everywhere. They turned and tried to attack him. But he slashed their knee's and shoulders splitting more arteries. He held both of their heads at a distance to his face stopping them from moving. Their struggles got weaker and weaker until they finally collapsed. He drove his teeth into the wounds and drank their blood and ate their flesh. Once you got rid of the hard rocky outer crust they were quite tasty. Around him the rest of his unit were running through each of the caves and tunnels seeking out and killing Digimon that tried to hide. In the centre of the cave system they had gathered together twenty of the rebels together. These were the ones who hadn't run and who would be taken back to work as slaves. Once the Loupmon were sure they had gathered or killed everyone they met with their leader. "Take these guy's back to the base. Lt you will control until you get back to the base." "Sir, aren't you coming with us?" "I saw the Digi-destined run up this way. She is mine" The Loupmon looked at their leader. His face had stopped bleeding but it still looked painful. His remaining eye was filled with hate. "Sir it might be safer if some of us come with you. There are still four Digi-destined near here." L2 looked reluctant but he finally decided to take two with him. They started to run slowly up the tunnel that Susan had run up earlier. They didn't go too quick but they were faster than she could go. The others turned round taking their prisoners with them.
It was about nine or ten when Matt woke up. Leaning back against a rock he surveyed the Digi-destined in front of him. He was in a difficult situation. How ever much he argued with Tai about him being the leader he wasn't comfortable with the post himself. For a second he wished Tai was here. How ever annoying he was and foolhardy he still inspired the other Digi-destined. Matt just couldn't do that. He was a loner, he did everything by himself. Sora was doing a better job than him but she was a girl and that ruled her out from leading in his mind. He was annoyed of being stuck with Joe. Other than Tai, Joe was the most annoying human in the world. A nerd, a wimp, a complainer, the list went on and on. Any of the other Digi-destined but not him. He didn't understand why Joe ran after him so quick. But he was glad T.K was with him. He dreaded to think what may have happened if he had stayed with Tai. Over the night he had done a lot of thinking and he decided that it would be better if they could join up with the others. As Sora said there was safety in numbers and he felt the group needed his influence to stay safe. He stood up and began to stretch his mussels by walking up the nearby hill. After he had reached the top he looked over the scene before him. A little way away from there camp stood the forest, majestic in its size and quiet. They had managed to leave the forest before nightfall and he was glad. He wasn't sure if they would have been safe if they had stayed in there. Now looking over he saw that they had been lucky to get out at all. The sides of the forest stretched around them in a rough semi-circle. Matt became anxious that they got out of here quickly. In front of him he could see the long series of hills that made up File mountain. It had changed greatly since he had last seen it. By nightfall he hoped to be near the top. Up there he could see all around and he might be able to spot the others or this new enemy who he had heard about but never seen. Below him the seven others had begun to wake. He was glad they still had the supplies from the night they had hunted for food.
Susan ran flat out up the long twisting rock path. There was barely any light and she fell over rocks more than once. But she kept going fuelled by the thought that if she stopped she would be killed and not a quick death either. The thing had promised that. Suddenly as she rounded a bend she saw a light a little way in front of her. She smiled a small flat smile. Well it was something, no more tripping or falling she thought. It was as she thought this that her ankle caught in a rock. Wrenching it too quickly from the rock she fell forward. Unfortunately for her the entrance was above a stiff hill which she preceded to fall down. It was a nightmare fall not at all like another slide she had done on the mountain walk. She was going face down sliding at quick speeds past rocks and precipices. Her chest was already screaming out in pain from bouncing up and down on the rough stones. Her eyes focused forward as a sharp edge seemed to fly towards her. She only had time to close her eyes before she heard a sickening crack. She sensed she was flying though the air. Weird, she thought, no pa… It seemed to hit her like waves of a rough sea. The pain seemed to be from all over her skull and she felt like her head was exploding. Nausea followed so strong she felt herself losing consciousness. She opened her mouth to scream before fainting when she feet first in to the water. She was in shock for the first few seconds before her legs began to kick mechanically. The water seemed to have dispelled the loss of consciousness. She was submerged for about thirty seconds at most before breaking the surface. She tried to open her eyes to look around her but only one responded. Oh God, she thought. I've lost an eye. Momentarily forgetting about her plight she started to strike out towards the shore line. When she finally heaved herself onto the bank, her lungs felt like bursting and her head pain which had subsided a bit was coming back in full force. The nausea became so bad she got sick into the river. While staring down she saw a faint refection of her face. Her eye widened as she took in the face covered in blood. Blood covered everywhere except a slight portion of her face from which her eye was staring out of. Gingerly she tried to touch the top of her head and immediately retracted her fingers as the pain threatened to over come her. After getting sick again she felt a tiny bit better. The pain seemed to be concentrating itself at the top of her forehead instead of all over her face. Hearing the sound of sliding stones she looked up. What she saw stunned her. From where she could see the cave opening from which she had tumbled was so far above her. She was staring at the distance she had fallen when she saw three black shapes appear from the entrance of the cave. Trying to ignore the pain in her head she made her way slowly to her feet. Her legs felt wobbly and weak and she thought for a moment about just laying there and trying to hide or to try and plead for her life. But dismissed these idea's and forced her self to go on. To try and give her self a jump start she imagined what the wolf had in store for her. The idea's that flowed into her head were too horrible and gruesome to entertain so she lifted a long branch and using it for a stick she hurried as fast as she could back into the forest. After about half an hour she had to stop and take a rest. The adrenaline flowing through her and the shock prevented her from feeling the worst of the pain in her head but it was still an almost unbearable thudding pain that still was pumping blood out but much more slowly than before, in fact it was just a small trickle. Her pace wasn't very fast and she was still close enough to the river to hear splashes that were unmistakably the Darken falling in. They must be very close to her know and as she was dripping blood she was very easy to follow. Groaning, she eased herself from the tree and continued to stumble through the woods. Almost all of her body was in pain and her strength was ebbing at a desperate rate. She had already decided there was no point in trying to save energy to fight them she had to try and get away from them as fast as she could. She was no longer thinking rationally about the best way to get to safety. All she was concentrating was the track in front of her. Pouring all her thought into staring at the ground a few feet in front of her was one thing to stop thinking about the pain. She didn't notice any of the scenes around or the small Digimon peeking out at her. While she was moving another pain started up in her head. While the pain from the rock was concentrated on her forehead the new pain was coming from inside her head. It started off as a minor twinge and slowly began to grow. After a couple of seconds she was reeling from this new pain. She didn't know where it had come from but she was forced to grit her teeth and to try and continue. But the pain was getting steadily worse. The pain from her fall began to fade in comparison. Her vision began fade and the ground began to shimmer and jump in front of her. She tripped over a root and feel to the ground. On her hands and knee's she tried to shake her head and get rid of the headache but this only made it worse. From behind her she heard the sound of branches breaking. The Loupmon were closing with her. Desperately she climbed to her feet. With her impaired vision and weak body this took up many precious seconds. Wobbling she tried to move quickly and only succeeded in falling again. She was panting again and her lungs were paining her. She knew now there was no point in trying to get to her feet. She wasn't getting anywhere. Forced now to crawl she made slow progress through the woods. Now at ground level she was having to go through thick bramble bushes and other low lying plants. She tried to look in front of her but any movement of head was putting her in agony. Her one eye refused to work properly but she didn't dare reach up her hand to touch it. The sounds behind her were getting closer and closer. She felt terribly vulnerable with back and neck in the air. Suddenly the bushes fell away and as she hurried on she found herself on short grass. Oh no, she thought, no! I'm now in open territory, an easy target. From behind her she could now hear the sound of the Loupmon's breathing. They were just behind her She tried to stand up but fell to her knee's. Unaware to her she was at the top of another hill. Moving forward a little send her into another roll. She issued a small scream as she fell. Unaware to her, just below the hill she had come out of stood four children and their Digimon. All four had seen her crawl out of the woods and fall. Before they could react three black creatures raced from the woods and down the hill. "Was that Mimi?" "It was either her or Kari." Sora turned to the others. "Come on you guy's have to Digivolve. Quick before those things get to her." Two minutes later Sora, Matt's and Joe's Digimon were in their Ultimate form's while T.K was just in front of them with Angemon. Sora hoped they were not too late. The two minutes felt like a terrible long time. Susan's roll was a short one and she hit into a rock, not very hard but enough to stop her. For some reason the roll had cleared her vision. She saw that she was in a large pit surrounded by walls of rock. Seconds later the Loupmon landed across from her. One of the Loupmon turned to his leader. "You will have to extract your revenge quickly, I saw the Digi-destined below the hill. There is no way we could fight off all of them." L2 just nodded. He walked slowly over into jumping distance of the girl. She was leaning against the rock staring at him with on frightened. "It seems you have already got rid of one eye" he said softly his eye running over her damaged body. "As you heard I don't have much time. The worst death I can give you is to rip a large hole in your body and let you bleed to death. I'm telling you now so you know your own destruction. Prepare for your death little human!" He tensed his rear legs. Susan head was getting steadily worse. Now she bearly sit without falling to the ground and screaming until all the pain left her head. Death would probably be a welcoming relief from the pain. Shaking uncontrollably she managed to turn her face towards where her death would come from.

They didn't go too quick but they were faster than she could go. The others turned round taking their prisoners with them.
It was about nine or ten when Matt woke up. Leaning back against a rock he surveyed the Digi-destined in front of him. He was in a difficult situation. How ever much he argued with Tai about him being the leader he wasn't comfortable with the post himself. For a second he wished Tai was here. How ever annoying he was and foolhardy he still inspired the other Digi-destined. Matt just couldn't do that. He was a loner, he did everything by himself. Sora was doing a better job than him but she was a girl and that ruled her out from leading in his mind. He was annoyed of being stuck with Joe. Other than Tai, Joe was the most annoying human in the world. A nerd, a wimp, a complainer, the list went on and on. Any of the other Digi-destined but not him. He didn't understand why Joe ran after him so quick. But he was glad T.K was with him. He dreaded to think what may have happened if he had stayed with Tai. Over the night he had done a lot of thinking and he decided that it would be better if they could join up with the others. As Sora said there was safety in numbers and he felt the group needed his influence to stay safe. He stood up and began to stretch his mussels by walking up the nearby hill. After he had reached the top he looked over the scene before him. A little way away from there camp stood the forest, majestic in its size and quiet. They had managed to leave the forest before nightfall and he was glad. He wasn't sure if they would have been safe if they had stayed in there. Now looking over he saw that they had been lucky to get out at all. The sides of the forest stretched around them in a rough semi-circle. Matt became anxious that they got out of here quickly. In front of him he could see the long series of hills that made up File mountain. It had changed greatly since he had last seen it. By nightfall he hoped to be near the top. Up there he could see all around and he might be able to spot the others or this new enemy who he had heard about but never seen. Below him the seven others had begun to wake. He was glad they still had the supplies from the night they had hunted for food.
Susan ran flat out up the long twisting rock path. There was barely any light and she fell over rocks more than once. But she kept going fuelled by the thought that if she stopped she would be killed and not a quick death either. The thing had promised that. Suddenly as she rounded a bend she saw a light a little way in front of her. She smiled a small flat smile. Well it was something, no more tripping or falling she thought. It was as she thought this that her ankle caught in a rock. Wrenching it too quickly from the rock she fell forward. Unfortunately for her the entrance was above a stiff hill which she preceded to fall down. It was a nightmare fall not at all like another slide she had done on the mountain walk. She was going face down sliding at quick speeds past rocks and precipices. Her chest was already screaming out in pain from bouncing up and down on the rough stones. Her eyes focused forward as a sharp edge seemed to fly towards her. She only had time to close her eyes before she heard a sickening crack. She sensed she was flying though the air. Weird, she thought, no pa… It seemed to hit her like waves of a rough sea. The pain seemed to be from all over her skull and she felt like her head was exploding. Nausea followed so strong she felt herself losing consciousness. She opened her mouth to scream before fainting when she feet first in to the water. She was in shock for the first few seconds before her legs began to kick mechanically. The water seemed to have dispelled the loss of consciousness. She was submerged for about thirty seconds at most before breaking the surface. She tried to open her eyes to look around her but only one responded. Oh God, she thought. I've lost an eye. Momentarily forgetting about her plight she started to strike out towards the shore line. When she finally heaved herself onto the bank, her lungs felt like bursting and her head pain which had subsided a bit was coming back in full force. The nausea became so bad she got sick into the river. While staring down she saw a faint refection of her face. Her eye widened as she took in the face covered in blood. Blood covered everywhere except a slight portion of her face from which her eye was staring out of. Gingerly she tried to touch the top of her head and immediately retracted her fingers as the pain threatened to over come her. After getting sick again she felt a tiny bit better. The pain seemed to be concentrating itself at the top of her forehead instead of all over her face. Hearing the sound of sliding stones she looked up. What she saw stunned her. From where she could see the cave opening from which she had tumbled was so far above her. She was staring at the distance she had fallen when she saw three black shapes appear from the entrance of the cave. Trying to ignore the pain in her head she made her way slowly to her feet. Her legs felt wobbly and weak and she thought for a moment about just laying there and trying to hide or to try and plead for her life. But dismissed these idea's and forced her self to go on. To try and give her self a jump start she imagined what the wolf had in store for her. The idea's that flowed into her head were too horrible and gruesome to entertain so she lifted a long branch and using it for a stick she hurried as fast as she could back into the forest. After about half an hour she had to stop and take a rest. The adrenaline flowing through her and the shock prevented her from feeling the worst of the pain in her head but it was still an almost unbearable thudding pain that still was pumping blood out but much more slowly than before, in fact it was just a small trickle. Her pace wasn't very fast and she was still close enough to the river to hear splashes that were unmistakably the Darken falling in. They must be very close to her know and as she was dripping blood she was very easy to follow. Groaning, she eased herself from the tree and continued to stumble through the woods. Almost all of her body was in pain and her strength was ebbing at a desperate rate. She had already decided there was no point in trying to save energy to fight them she had to try and get away from them as fast as she could. She was no longer thinking rationally about the best way to get to safety. All she was concentrating was the track in front of her. Pouring all her thought into staring at the ground a few feet in front of her was one thing to stop thinking about the pain. She didn't notice any of the scenes around or the small Digimon peeking out at her. While she was moving another pain started up in her head. While the pain from the rock was concentrated on her forehead the new pain was coming from inside her head. It started off as a minor twinge and slowly began to grow. After a couple of seconds she was reeling from this new pain. She didn't know where it had come from but she was forced to grit her teeth and to try and continue. But the pain was getting steadily worse. The pain from her fall began to fade in comparison. Her vision began fade and the ground began to shimmer and jump in front of her. She tripped over a root and feel to the ground. On her hands and knee's she tried to shake her head and get rid of the headache but this only made it worse. From behind her she heard the sound of branches breaking. The Loupmon were closing with her. Desperately she climbed to her feet. With her impaired vision and weak body this took up many precious seconds. Wobbling she tried to move quickly and only succeeded in falling again. She was panting again and her lungs were paining her. She knew now there was no point in trying to get to her feet. She wasn't getting anywhere. Forced now to crawl she made slow progress through the woods. Now at ground level she was having to go through thick bramble bushes and other low lying plants. She tried to look in front of her but any movement of head was putting her in agony. Her one eye refused to work properly but she didn't dare reach up her hand to touch it. The sounds behind her were getting closer and closer. She felt terribly vulnerable with back and neck in the air. Suddenly the bushes fell away and as she hurried on she found herself on short grass. Oh no, she thought, no! I'm now in open territory, an easy target. From behind her she could now hear the sound of the Loupmon's breathing. They were just behind her She tried to stand up but fell to her knee's. Unaware to her she was at the top of another hill. Moving forward a little send her into another roll. She issued a small scream as she fell. Unaware to her, just below the hill she had come out of stood four children and their Digimon. All four had seen her crawl out of the woods and fall. Before they could react three black creatures raced from the woods and down the hill. "Was that Mimi?" "It was either her or Kari." Sora turned to the others. "Come on you guy's have to Digivolve. Quick before those things get to her." Two minutes later Sora, Matt's and Joe's Digimon were in their Ultimate form's while T.K was just in front of them with Angemon. Sora hoped they were not too late. The two minutes felt like a terrible long time. Susan's roll was a short one and she hit into a rock, not very hard but enough to stop her. For some reason the roll had cleared her vision. She saw that she was in a large pit surrounded by walls of rock. Seconds later the Loupmon landed across from her. One of the Loupmon turned to his leader. "You will have to extract your revenge quickly, I saw the Digi-destined below the hill. There is no way we could fight off all of them." L2 just nodded. He walked slowly over into jumping distance of the girl. She was leaning against the rock staring at him with on frightened. "It seems you have already got rid of one eye" he said softly his eye running over her damaged body. "As you heard I don't have much time. The worst death I can give you is to rip a large hole in your body and let you bleed to death. I'm telling you now so you know your own destruction. Prepare for your death little human!" He tensed his rear legs. Susan head was getting steadily worse. Now she bearly sit without falling to the ground and screaming until all the pain left her head. Death would probably be a welcoming relief from the pain. Shaking uncontrollably she managed to turn her face towards where her death would come from.
