Everything went abruptly silent. Sounds of the monsters wrestling stopped.790Please respect copyright.PENANAzoHOvX3QF2
'Shit.' Rat thought.790Please respect copyright.PENANAFlqgstU6Ru
'They heard me!'.790Please respect copyright.PENANAcMvWA36WEm
A few seconds passed and now he could hear the creatures sniffing. They're going to follow his scent. Of course some fresh human boy meat is more important than whatever was going on between them.790Please respect copyright.PENANA23Hb0kyuJz
The boy is frozen in fear. There is no way out.790Please respect copyright.PENANAv7vtATYSje
He looks around frantically, eyes searching frantically for something. Anything.790Please respect copyright.PENANArjaevJFePq
It's no use. Only rubble surrounding him.790Please respect copyright.PENANAFydGkbzc4S
The only thing separating him from a violent end is a decaying concrete wall, and Rat already witnessed the effectiveness of those against the monsters' brute force.790Please respect copyright.PENANAUUeycbcEOl
The brutish snarling behemoths are closings the gap. Their pace surprisingly slow, their steps freakishly quiet. They went from berserk-wrestling mode to full on predator mode.790Please respect copyright.PENANAYBwoMotiUm
From a distance Rat wasn't able to determine exactly how big they were, but as they closed in on the other side of the wall that sheltered him, the shadows of their monstrous heads, necks and shoulders started to fall over Rat, until eventually the shade of their muscly torsos loomed on front of Rat.790Please respect copyright.PENANAleU8ueXQmq
'They must be more than three meter tall.' Rat choked a little. A step forward and they will be able to just look down and see him.790Please respect copyright.PENANAO0dWLcrgyG
The shadow stopped moving. The creature that cast it sniffing for a moment and then makes a blood curdling guttural noise. It's volume low, but just as foreboding.790Please respect copyright.PENANAllBWRJ91fc
It was then that the other creature answered.790Please respect copyright.PENANA3715dCZroz
A sharp shiver climbed up Rat's spine as he looked to the side.790Please respect copyright.PENANAcsfZNNIg3W
The head of the other monster peeked from the side of the wall.790Please respect copyright.PENANA4Zg0bFTl6k
He couldn't help but breath in sharply at the sight.790Please respect copyright.PENANAwudcUuukeZ
The head turned sharply to him.790Please respect copyright.PENANAnOkVtFyxSF
Bloodshot glowing yellow eyes stared at him as the creature growled.
