I had always thought wolves were beautiful. In a weird way! They ran around the woods, at the back of my house, at night. I would always get up and turn my light on and watch them out of my bedroom window! There was always a grey wolf, with black eyes. It always seemed to watch me. Then, after a few minutes it would ran off, with the rest of it's pack. I had always been warned by my parent's , not to go into the woods. People never came back. They say, " The wolves, beat them." But, the wolves always looked so peaceful, how could they kill?
So, one day, my Mum said to me, " Can you nip into the shop for some onions. I need them for the dinner, tonight." She handed me the money, and i made my way down to the shop. I brought the onions, and placed them in a plastic bag. But, then i passed the entrance to the woods. And, i just couldn't help it! I had to go in! But, as soon as i passed the old rusty brown gate, i knew i had made a mistake. The wind blew the gate shut, and when i tryed to budge it open it was stuck. The gate must have been about 50 years old, maybe even older.
I yelled for someone. Which was my 2nd mistake. Then, after they had heard my call , came a man. But, then as i looked closer, it was not a man. Men didn't have jet white hair, and skin the same colour. He grinned, and his eyes showed black, and empty. I screamed. And, he laughed. He grabbed me from behind. I had no - idea what he was. But, somehow i didn't think it was human! He pulled me deep into the woods. Where he dropped me on the ground, and my head hit the ground. " I've got you!" I didn't look up, i couldn't look at those eyes. That was when somewhere in the distance, a wolf howled. Well, that's just typical isn't it?!
