Monsters

There are monsters in the woods.

I have reasons to know that.

And when the townspeople find his body, disemboweled and half-devoured, they'll know it too.

The only witness, a boy of nine, won't say a word, he'll be catatonic with fear, unable to describe the thing that attacked them in the night.

They'll know a monster hunts the woods, and they'll know the danger that lurks.

And they'll hunt me.

What they won't know is what my prey was doing to that boy when I found them.

But I know, because I know there are monsters in the woods.
