The muscles in my body tensed, I was frozen in fear and shock as a figure began to emerge from the darkened woods. My eyes, trailed their way up from clawed toes to toned calves. Thighs were covered with a thick black leather-like covering, which led me to the pelvis, which was thankfully also concealed, only taking the time to identify the creature as male before coming face to chest with him, abs sub-consciously caught my attention but I brushed it off with more pressing issues. His skin was the kind of green you find growing on top of mud in marshes far away from civilization with a pale yellow chest, and black paintbrush spots littering his frame. I was immediately reminded of an alligator, which alone should have made me head for the nearest highway, but fear and now blooming curiosity kept me there and still in front of the beast. A red light flashed in my peripheral vision and my eyes swung to locate the source seeing a gadget around his wrist, I gasped at the prospect that this thing could be an intelligent life form, an alien. I finally allowed myself to look at his face, and with a rather dramatic gasp my foot slipped behind me.
He had mandibles and a large broad forehead, with what appeared to be dark dreads growing out from his skull. My eyes searched for contact and when it was found, adrenaline began to pulse through my veins, his eyes held fierce determination and something deeply animalistic in its hazel depths. That seemed to be all the information my body needed as I felt control over my body returning, the air between us grew tense. With a click of his mandibles I was off, sprinting through the woods the way I had come from I put all I had into putting space between us. A roar that could rival the king of the jungle tore through the once unnatural silence immediately I knew a simple recovery job just became a lot more dangerous. Unconsciously I gripped the found shoe tighter in my hand.
