Chapter 124: Epilogue 1

Trinity

I was running through the trees, my paws digging into the forest floor. My breath was fogging in the air in front of me as I panted. I was trying to watch where I was going while also predicting where my pursuer was likely to jump out at me. 

I didn't hear a single noise coming from his footfalls as he chased after me. My heart was pounding, but still, I could hear every sound around me, even though he didn't seem to have a sound at all. I could see the snowbank in the distance. It was pressed right up against the edge of the trees, just on the other side would be the house. If I could get to the house, I would be safe, I would have won.

Just as I jumped to leap over the pile of snow I sensed a shift in the air, a movement nearby. I knew that he had found me, he had caught me. I lost.
