SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!

I am I said

Out of the corner of my eye, a dark figure leaps out of the woods to my left.

to no one there.

Before I can even cry out, something slams into the side of the Winnabago with enough force to crush the side in.

And no one heard at all

We tumble down the hill to the right with sickening speed, spinning faster than a roller coaster. My life flashes before my eyes.

Not even the cha-

The airbags inflate as we hit the bottom, right before the entire RV dies.

As I attempt to regain my senses, I can hear someone screaming uncontrollably. Oh, wait, I'm the person screaming uncontrollably. Okay, deep breaths. In. Out. In. Out. The car has stopped moving, it's okay. You're okay. Skylar and Luca are... ohmygod Skylar and Luca weren't wearing seatbelts!

I tear my seatbelt off and stagger towards the wreckage in the back. Skylar is propped up against the side, her clothes shredded and a massive cut bleeding on her forehead. Her skin looks ashen and she's not moving. Kneeling next to her, trying to wake her up, is Luca, who, although heavily bruised, looks better for wear. He stares at me in horror, and when I look down I see I have a gash on my inner arm, which is bleeding heavily.

"Is juss a flesh woun'..." I slur unconvincingly. "Theres necter in my bag..." I add, frantically zipping it open and taking out a warm thermos. I hand it to him and he tries to get Skylar to drink some. The cut begins to heal and her color returns, but she remains unconscious. He takes a sip himself and then hands the container back to me. As I savor the taste of strawberry juice, my head begins to clear. I sink to my knees next to Luca.

"What the hell happened?" He asks.

I shrug "Something hit us."

"Yea but what?"

"Whatever it is, we've got bigger problems right now. Try to grab anything salvageable you can find back there." I look around us. The door is currently on the floor, but one of windows has broken open, and if we try we can fit through.

At which point a gnarled, warty hand reaches through the gap.

I scream and scramble backwards as the hand and the hideous arm attached to it feels around the window. The arm is then followed by a hair covered chest, and finally a face. A humanoid face, almost completely covered in hair, save for a round, boil covered nose, and two glowing yellow eyes. Cat eyes. It growls, revealing sharp yellow teeth. Luca and I fear-whimper in unison. I reach slowly for one of the throwing knifes in my backpack, careful not to make any sudden moves. The thing starts to tear the metal around it, widening the hole. I take aim and throw.

Unfortunately, I have terrible aim. The knife barely grazes the creatures side, resulting in a small cut oozing thick black-green goop. It does, however, cause it to loose it's hold, buying us time. I rummage through my backpack frantically, until I find what I'm looking for: two glue-sticks. I hand one to Luca and he gives me a funny look.

"What?" I realize we have the exact same sword disguises. I shrug, embarrassed. "There's a million of these at the camp store." At which point the creature jumps onto the door again, howling obscenely. We uncap our glue-sticks.

The thing breaks into the car and jumps in front of us, and I realize it's only about four feet tall. It moves closer and I scream and swing my sword like a arachnephobe swatting a spider. Somehow I manage to fatally wound it. The creature stumbles backward, leaking the ooze, which I now realize is sap, all over the place. It curls up in a ball, shuddering a gurgling. We approach it cautiously.

"What is that thing?"

"Tei-Teihiihan... cannibal dwarf..." it sputters out before dissolving into more sap. I stare in horror for a moment, then turn to Luca.

"Let's get the heck outta here."

We manage to pull ourselves and Skylar out of the hole the 'Teihiihan' made and into the woods below. We rest as she begins to regain consciousness. Luca and I stare at each awkwardly for a moment. Then I start to laugh. Like hysterically laugh.

"Luca," I say between fits of giggles, "Why were we fighting again?" He stares at me in shock and then grins.

"I'll be honest with you, I forgot sometime during week two." he replies, begin to chuckle himself.

I take a deep breath. "Whatever it was, I'm sorry."

He nods. "Same here."

I breathe a shaky sigh a relief. The dwarf attack is over. The crash is over. And now, the feud is over too. I hold out my arms. "Hug?"

And we do.

"You smell like dead dwarf." I whisper as the wailing of ambulance sirens comes closer.

"You have motor oil in you're hair." He whispers back.

Teihiihan are cannibal dwarves from Arapaho, Gros Venture and Cheyenne Nations. They are supernaturally strong (their name even means "strong") and feed on human flesh. Demigods must be even tastier. I figured since they're forest creatures, they'd dissolve into sap, unlike regular monsters. Whatever you do, do not Google pictures of them, because you will have nightmares. You're going to Google them, aren't you? I bet you just have. Well, I warned you. Maybe when you're up all night you can write some reviews for me, because I would really appreciate one. I did warn you about Google

Happy nightmares!
