Chapter 5: Danger At The Lake
There were ripples in the water, moving closer, and all he could see was the shadow of some -thing- coming near. He didn't think he could outrun it in the boat, so he looked around for something to use. "This'll have to work!," he shouted, picking up one of the harpoons in the boat. "More than enough," he thought, to stop whatever it was. When it was a few feet away, he threw a harpoon, and it struck it's mark. The creature came up out of the water for a moment and he had no idea what it could be. Something like a combination between a giant salamander and huge alligator. "What the f...?," he shouted, the words drowned out by the water crashing down on him. He threw another harpoon, but it missed, and it's tail flew towards the boat, nearly knocking him out. It started to swim off quickly, the first harpoon attached to it by a rope, pulling the boat along. He tried throwing a few more harpoons, two hitting their mark, spraying blood everywhere. The creature was very angry, and it broke free from the first harpoon. Swimming back, it swung it's tail towards the boat, knocking Leon out this time! Leon quickly swam back towards the boat, nearly caught by the creature, he climbed in at the last second, breathing heavily. Readying another harpoon, he aimed for what appeared to be the creature's head, and threw at the exact right moment as he followed in the boat. It struck and the creature let out a loud, high-pitched wail as more blood sprayed. Swimming even faster and more violently, it pulled the boat along, breaking another harpoon. "Damn! How do I kill this thing???," Leon yelled; steering out of the way too late, it struck the boat, sending him flying out again. This time, he was ready, and swam back to the boat, hanging on tightly as it struck the boat a third time after he was settled. Staying in the boat this time, he held a harpoon in his hand, and threw it again at the creatures skull, thinking that would be the best target. It struck, attaching the boat once again. The creature tried to swim quickly but it was losing strength. "A few more should take care of this thing, it's getting weaker!," he said, holding on again as it broke free from the fourth harpoon. Before it had a chance to strike, he threw two more, both missing, and was knocked from the boat again. He swam for his life, hanging on to the side as it swam underneath. Climbing back in, he knew it would die soon. With only one spear left, he was ready, and waited for it to be within range. Throwing with all his strength, it drove into it's head, going all the way through, sending blood flying everywhere. He cut the rope loose with the rusty knife he found earlier, and watched as it swam with the last of it's strength to an empty side of the shore. A moment later, it stopped moving, and died there. "How the hell did that -thing- get so big?" He steered the boat one last time to the dock where he found it, tying it up in case he needed it later. Back on the path in the forest, he noticed there was a seperate one, leading off to a cave. "I wonder what's in there." Walking to the cave, he realized that even in the late afternoon light, he would need more light to see where he was going if he entered. "Maybe if I had some light I could explore more, but right now I should keep going, back to the town." He continued along the path, and found a set of doors leading undergound he hadn't noticed before. Standing beside the shack, he looked down at the padlock which barred him from entering. Carefully aiming at it, he fired the handgun, sending a few splinters flying and destroying the lock. Knowing anything could be down there, he opened both doors wide, letting what little light there was left inside. It was a storm shelter. No one had been in there for a long time it seemed, as everything was covered in a thick layer of dust. The smell was horrible, and he noticed a skeleton lay in a corner. Upon inspecting it, he realized there was something in the hand. Another picture of the church from the town, and another unusual object. The picture this time pointed him to boards on either side of the doorway outside. The boards had been removed in the picture, revealing a hidden imprint the size of each of the objects he had found. "I think I can use these to get in the church! Maybe there's something in there that will help me find her." He left the shelter, and closed the doors behind him. On his way back to the town, he noticed that the wolf was waiting for him. It started to follow when he passed, and didn't rest until Leon made it back to the edge of the forest. For some reason, it wouldn't enter the town until Leon whistled, maybe needing permission to follow him further. He decided to have one more look around the houses before trying the objects he had found. Nothing more except a lantern he could use to explore the cave later. Nothing had changed: the blood stains were still on the ground, shards of glass lay on the floor where windows had been broken, and the doors were all unlocked. The crazed villagers were gone, and the sun had disappeared from the sky. The town was almost entirely dark by the time he was finished. He found another path out of the town, leading to another section of the forest, but he decided to check that later. The wolf stood there at the edge of the forest, and looked at Leon, then jogged off into the night. In the distance he could smell smoke, and realized there must be another fire going. Rain started to fall from the sky, and lightning struck in the sky as the thunder rumbled. A storm began as though it were a sign the night would be very hard for him. He turned back, ready to go inside the church.
What would the night bring for Leon?
