A young woman ran through the forest as fast as she could

I've got to get away she thought. But at this time of night I can barely see!

The woman began to panic and ran into a large branch that was in front of her. She held in a gasp of pain as she rubbed her head and tried to think of what to do.

I have to calm down and think quickly. My life depends on it!

Half a mile away a tall dark figure smiled and inhaled deeply through his nose

Fear. He thought. I can smell it. Strong, delicious humans fear.

She's not far ahead of me now.

Him mouth watered as he smelt her.

He inhaled again and ran in the direction of the smell.

The hunt is on.

The young woman had now stopped running. Its hopeless in these woods she thought. The best thing to do is to get a weapon.

She searched on the ground and spotted a long smooth branch with a sharp wooden spike to it.

She grabbed it with both hands and held it close to her as she shook with morbid fear and waited.

He inhaled.

She has stopped. He ran faster and let out aloud howl.

The young woman jumped back against a tree as she heard huge howl. Her heart beat faster and faster almost as if it wanted to leave her chest in terror.

He spotted her. He licked long sharp teeth and lips.

He kept low almost crawling up to her from behind.

The woman heard a sound from behind her.

It's him!

She swung round with her stick. But he court hold of it with his left hand and placed his right hand around her throat.

As she let out a bloodcurdling scream the snapping of her neck silenced her.

He dropped the body to the ground.

He then let out a triumphant howl as the rest of the pack came out of hiding to share in the night's meal.
