This is going to be the first attack. But can you guess who it will be first?
Eleanor's POV
We were all walking together back home from school. I kept close to the group so I could feel safe. Knowing that there was an attack yesterday that we could have been killed in had got me paranoid. I was talking to Theodore trying to forget about yesterday.
"Guys, we need to relax. I mean, it happened yesterday! Nothing happened in the morning, nothing happened while we were at school, so nothing could happen while we are walking home...right?" Alvin turned to Simon.
He looked back at us for a moment. "I-I don't know. After what happened yesterday, you can't be too sure about anything."
I sighed. Knowing something could happen at any moment is making me grow nervous.
And then it just happened so fast. I was staying close to Theodore when something grabbed him and threw him on the ground. Everyone was now looking behind them to see me without Theodore near me. They looked behind me and gasped of fear.
Theodore was on the ground trying to get up. He looked so weak. I looked to the source that caused Theodore to be thrown on the ground. I gasped and began to feel frightened. There just a few feet away from us was a big white dog that looked so much like a wolf. And knowing Theodore was scared of big creatures like that I had to do something.
"Theodore!" I yelled to him as I tried to run to him and help him. But just as I was getting to him the creature jumped in front of me causing me to back away.
"Ellie! No!" Brittany yelled to me.
"Eleanor! Get back here!" Jeanette yelled frantically at me.
"No! I have to help Theodore!" I yelled to them and ran for my life around the creature and to Theodore.
I got him up and just as we were about to make a run for it the creature charged at us. Theodore and I began screaming and ran to our siblings. Theodore's brothers grabbed his hands and my sisters grabbed mine and we all ran for our lives.
We ran and ran until we reached a dead end in an alley way. Why in the world did we decide to run in here in the first place? Oh yeah. To get away from the beast!
We turned around once we heard a low growl coming from behind us. It was the creature! I was petrified. But knowing Theodore he was more scared than I was!
As soon as we turned it pounced on us. We all screamed and dodged it's pounce. All of us except...Theodore! No!
"Theodore! Someone help Theodore!" I cried of fear of my best friend's safety.
"HELP!" He was yelling at us to do something. But what can we do? If we make a move then we'll end up just like Theodore! But deciding it was worth it I picked up a stone and threw it at the creature.
I continued this until it finally looked at me with anger-filled eyes. At that I ran to my sisters for protection and hid behind them. But that didn't make me feel better, I am still worried about Theodore's safety!
"AAAAHHH!" He yelled in pain. I could see the blood coming out of him. This was not good! My eyes began to water as I tried to hold back my tears.
"HEY! YOU STUPID CREATURE OVER HERE! NOBODY HURTS MY BROTHER AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!" Alvin yelled at it fuming as he charged for the creature.
"Alvin, no!" Brittany yelled at him to stop. But Alvin was still filled with rage in him that he chased the thing away!
I looked over at Theodore and gasped. Tears were now falling down my cheeks. I ran to him and sobbed on his lifeless body.
Simon ran over to us and checked for a pulse. "It's weak but still pumping." He looked in fear at us as he looked like he was trying to fight back tears of his own along with Alvin.
"THEODORE! THEODORE, WAKE UP! PLEASE, WAKE UP!" I yelled at him. I cried my eyes out as the blood got onto my hands and clothes. But I didn't care about that now. All I cared about was Theodore.
"I called Dave and Miss Miller. They said they are on their way. I also talked to the police. They're coming over here as well." Jeanette looked worried and afraid just like I am.
2 minutes passed and finally the police along with the ambulance came and took Theodore onto the stretcher and pushed him away into the ambulance.
I was still crying. My sisters were beginning to cry. And most importantly his brothers had began to cry. Finally Dave and Miss Miller came and Dave ran to us while Miss Miller went to talk to the police officers.
"Are you all alright? Thank goodness Jeanette called me and told me what happened! I knew this would happen I should have picked you up from school!" Dave was clearly mad at himself.
"Kids! I just spoke to the police! Apparently, there was a large dog on the loose and just so happened to attack Theodore!" Miss Miller explained.
"Alright Kids, here's what we're going to do. Alvin and Simon you'll be spending the night at the girl's place while I go to the hospital with Theodore." Dave told us.
"But we want to see Theodore!" Alvin argued.
"For once I agree with Alvin! There is no way we're just going to leave you to be there for Theodore alone!" Simon told him.
"OK that's enough you two! You are staying over at the girl's house and you will get to see Theodore soon. OK?" Dave told them sternly.
"Yes Dave" They muttered. "Good. Now behave you two. Especially you Alvin." Dave looked at him.
"Whatever." He looked annoyed and sighed.
Dave turned and ran to the ambulance where he had hopped in. I watched it drive away just wishing it was me in there instead of Theodore. Or at least have me there for him. But no. As of right now he is in the hospital and I have no clue when he is going to feel better! Why Theodore? Why not me?
