(A/N Hey guys! Thanks so much to every one who reviewed! I'm so glad you all like the story so much! Really, you have no idea how happy it makes me lol. Any ways, I'm sorry it took so long to update this time! No lame excuses, just I'm sorry. Forgive me? I decided to keep the story going, instead of end it like I was going to this chapter, because I came up with a great idea to keep it going. Well, ok, not GREAT idea, but an idea. And you all seem to like it so much! So here's the story!)

"Jackson, wait up!" Melissa called, running to catch up with him. They hadn't been walking around for too long when Jackson had found footsteps that he and Melissa both thought belonged to Taylor. Who else would be wearing heeled flip flops? Jackson suddenly stopped, and Melissa, who was still running, bumped into him, causing them both to topple over.

"Sorry." Melissa muttered apologetically, rolling off of Jackson's back.

"Its ok." Jackson smiled, pushing himself up, then offering up a hand to help Melissa up.

"What's wrong?" Melissa asked. Jackson answered her by pointing onto the ground. The heels were replaced with what looked like...human footprints. "She must have taken her shoes off." Melissa said, as if it was nothing, but as soon as she said it, she realized how weird that was. Why would Taylor take her shoes off?

"Let's just keep following them." Jackson said, and Melissa nodded. It was pretty now pretty dark, and she could barely see any thing. But that was probably only because trees were blocking out all of what was left of the light.

Suddenly Melissa gasped, and stopped, grabbing Jacksons hand. "Jackson..." She trailed off, looking at the ground.

Jackson shone his flashlight on the ground beside Melissa's. "What are they?" He asked, looking at the mutilated footprints that were right beside Taylors. They looked like they could belong to some one in the cat family...but at the same time, they looked like some thing belonging to a dinosaur.

"I think...I think it's the beast. And I think it's after Taylor."

Just then, they heard a scream. "Taylor!" Both Melissa and Jackson exclaimed, and took off running.

The beast moved forward, and Taylor couldn't help herself. She screamed. She guessed in a way that if her time was up, this was a pretty harsh way to go. Swallowed whole by mutilated beast. (A/N I'm purposely not describing the beast, because, well for one, I don't have a definite picture in my mind, and also so that you, the readers, can use your imaginations and picture the monster for yourself...)

Taylor took a step backwards, and realized that she was on the very edge of the cliff. Her heart was racing in her chest, and she couldn't breath properly. The beast took another step forward, as if toying with her emotions. It took another couple of steps, and Taylor was now freaking out. She wondered if she could fool it some how...

She quickly took her eyes off of it and picked up a rock from the ground. She threw it to the left of her far into the forest, and as the beast looked over, she moved to the right, ready to make a run for it. But then the beast had it's beady little eyes on her again. It had it's teeth barred, almost in a creepy, phyco killer smile. Taylor shivered, but forced herself to keep looking into the creatures eyes.

Suddenly, it lunged forward at her, and she screamed, and backed up...

Melissa heard another heart-wrenching scream, and she and Jackson sped up, if that was even phsyically possible. Suddenly Jackson skidded to a stop, and Melissa crashed into him, but both of them kept their balance this time. They were at a cliff, the sun almost down in the background. They had arrived just in time to see Taylor back up off the edge of the cliff.

"Taylor!" Melissa screamed, running forwards, but it was already too late. Taylor was gone.

(A/N Well, that was quite the serious chapter, wasn't it? And the cliffie...mwahahaha! I'm so evil. I'm surprised you all don't hate me. It was a short one too, but don't worry, I'll be updating like, tomorrow, I promise! If I don't (WHICH I WILL!) I give you all permission to kill me with a blunt axe! So please review guys, I want to know if you thought it was ok.)
