Neil tried to calm his rapid breathing. The woods seemed to be unending. There was no way back to the city. The model held his breath when he heard leaves rustle on the ground around the tree he was hiding in. He glanced down. The moon light reflected off the silver fur of the wolf that Neil had been running from. He had tried calling Jay, but his PMR had been crushed.
The wolf moved on. Neil started breathing again.
"I've got to call Jay. Too bad my PMR is completely useless."
"There's no use hiding, Neil. Once the Silver Wolf has a scent there's no helping the prey," Cronus called.
Neil sank back against the tree he was hiding in.
"It's a shame really. Such a magnificent creature created to destroy the enemies of those who command it, only to die once those enemies have been disposed of," Cronus continued.
Neil felt his heart skip a beat. If he was caught, not only would his life be over, but Selene's life would also be forfeit.
"Come out, Neil. It's no good delaying the inevitable. The sooner you surrender, the sooner this will be over," Cronus explained.
Neil forced himself to breathe calmly. He needed help. He needed his PMR to work. Neil took out the skeleton of the radio.
"I hope the GPS is still working," he thought.
He closed his eyes and pushed a button. The black screen flickered to life. Neil opened his eyes. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the signal flash on the cracked screen. His luck hadn't run out. However, the happy feeling fell instantly when there was a loud snap. Neil found himself on his back looking up at the starless sky. Silver filled his vision as the wolf pounced.
I'm sorry this chapter was so short. This has been one hectic day and I wasn't able to make it longer. I hope the next chapter will be longer.
Anyway, let me know what you think. No flames please.
