Chapter 4:Uh-oh,We're in Trouble......
It didn't take too long to reach Marrianne.
"Are you ok?"Nigel asked.
"Not really."she answered.
"Mom! Dad! Look out!"came Eliza's voice.
They looked up.The bear was lunging,claws outstretched,right at them.They threw themselves to the side and the bear's claws struck the wall,getting stuck in the process.
"Well.At least we don't have to worry about her for a while."
They went upstairs to the bathroom and sat on top of the hatch-like door.While Nigel wrapped up her wound with bandages,Marrianne turned to Eliza with the dice in her hand.
"Eliza,it's your turn."
Eliza gulped quietly,took the dice and rolled.She got a 7,then read what the board said.
"His low growl paralyzes his prey.Elude it or today's your last day."
She looked up nerously.Then a growl reached their ears and they froze.Slowly,so very slowly,did they turn toward the shadows where the growl came from and what emerged could've made someone faint.It was a Siberian tiger.He growled loudly,but softly,which caused the Thornberrys to stand and move away.They thought about making a break for it,but then they remembered the bear still downstairs.The tiger growled more menacingly as it took a final step closer and just crouched down,tail lashing from side to side,ready to pounce.Eliza gulped.
"This is going to be harder than I thought."
To be continued.
Hey! How was it? I hope you liked it,even though it's short.Well you'll have to get use to it because I have writer's block right now and I only get three hours to work on my computer anyway,so it's not all my fault,but I know now that readers want longer chapters.Hopefully the next chapter will be longer.Also,the tiger riddle isn't mine,it's DarkHououmon's.Thank you for the riddle.
